In the event of the dollar collapsing, your military collapses with it, your military is not designed to work, unless it is fed continuously by the Fed, if the Fed goes into hyperinflation, the Pentagon falls apart too. Not to mention, what was left of your military, would be fully engaged in trying to maintian and and doing humanitarian relief.

Whatever you had left over, wouldn't be enough to threaten us. In reality, the United States would be on its knees, looking to Canada for assistance.

How’d that work for you in 2007? Was Canada standing alone atop the global financial system, squeaky clean?

We were in much better shape than you, I never even felt a bump from the 2008 financial crisis, didn't effect me at all, and in terms of equity, I ended up making money not losing.

I wouldn’t count on that being the case anymore.

Household debt > nominal GDP = fuuuuuuuuicked.

In the event of, our GDP would switch to our gold and natural resources, so, collectively, at the national level, we'd be rich not poor, because we have a massive amount of both, for a comparatively tiny population. Bear in mind, back when there was a gold standard, the Canadian dollar was worth more than the US dollar, for a reason, if the Fed flood goes away, you're not necessarily richer than us after all, not per capita at least.

The debt would just be written off, the Crown would bail the country out, which, with our resource to population ratio, would be very doable, unlike you, where the lifeboats would be swamped.

You're a typical American panic monkey, but that would be your undoing not your salvation, whereas we here, would not panic, keep calm and carry on, hardships do not deter us, debt write downs ain't no thing, if that's your big doomsday, that's laughable, whoopie fuckin' do.

When you invoke a crisis on the scale you are, the rules change, the bailouts and cram downs happen, because there is no other option, if the government allows everyone to be thrown to the wolves, they're going to have a revolution on their hands, so they won't allow that, national mobilization is about more than just the military, in the event of, the Crown would step in, and make the rules to suit the situation.

Yes, the Crown would need a lot of money, but lucky for the Crown, that they are sitting on an exponential motherlode of precious metals and natural resources, in a monarchy, where ultimately, the Crown owns it all.

The six big banks here, who hold all the mortgages, answer to the Crown, the Crown would have to bail them out, then the Crown becomes the lender of last resort, the mortgages would get crammed down, as for the credit cards and whatnot, the Crown would just write that off.

The big downside would be that we would go to full on socialism, with wartime levels of central planning for awhile, but whatever it took for the Crown to stabilize the situation, it would be done, there wouldn't even be a debate, they'd just do it.

Another thing that's hard to wrap my head around:

All Critics
TOMATOMETER
92%
Critics Consensus: Star Wars: The Last Jedi honors the saga's rich legacy while adding some surprising twists -- and delivering all the emotion-rich action fans could hope for.

AUDIENCE SCORE
53%

Rarely do you see blockbusters that the critics love and the public hates.

And usually with the critics, even if I disagree, I understand what the critics would like about it.

This one, hard to reach any conclusion other than that of the DSL/StA variety....

"rarely"

The box office numbers dropped way off yesterday, maybe word of mouth is starting to have effects, a chink in SJW Wars armor perhaps.

[nmoore63]

"rarely"

Critics and the public always disagree.

I meant for movies the public is supposed to like.

Transforms, star wars, fast and the furious whatever.

Any large budget film that pushes the cultural marxist narrative is going to get at least decent reviews if not raving revews, despite the fact that the more cultural marxist propaganda they try to push in the film, the more the film becomes utter shit that most people dislike. This isn't news.

To put it more in specific terms from old discussions:

Mad Max Fury Road

Critics:
97%

Critics Consensus: With exhilarating action and a surprising amount of narrative heft, Mad Max: Fury Road brings George Miller's post-apocalyptic franchise roaring vigorously back to life.

AUDIENCE SCORE
85%

12 points between the public and the critics for Mad Max.
39 points between the public and the critics on the new Star Wars

Mad Max Fury Road was a decent movie, and if the critics liked seeing charlize theron all masculine kicking butt, well I at least understand what they are talking about.

The Star Wars one was nothing like that. Yes, other than Del Toro every new character introduced was a female, so I see that, but the movie sucked.

Or that new ghost busters. I didn't see it, but the spread between audience and critics was only 22 points. Star Wars is 39!

[Smitty-48]

Fury Road was not SJW, Max Rockatansky was still the alpha. I thought Theron was good, I liked that character, but she didn't replace Max, she was a sidekick.

Rockatansky saves the women, tames the amazon, wins the day, sacrifices himself in the end; alpha.
