A recent poll of several hundred preppers, people who are looking at news and watching for threatindications, well informed, asked, “Do you believe that President Trump’s actions and plans to date are increasing or decreasing the likelihood of a domestic civil war?”
The poll found that 50% believe Trump is “greatly increasing” the likelihood of civil war, with another 20% indicating he is slightly increasing likelihood of civil war. 7% responded that Trump is not having an impact on the likelihood of civil war, but that a domestic civil war is likely. Combined, 77% of respondents believe Trump is increasing the likelihood of civil war or that domestic civil war is likely.The poll also asked preppers what they believe is the likelihood of a collapse over the near year. The average response was a 25% chance of a collapse.The likelihood of a collapse was also addressed by 23 intelligence officers, political scientists, biologists, defense analysts, and scientists in a recent update of the “Probability of Collapse Model” maintained by Disaster Preparedness LLC. Experts reviewed 50 disaster “trigger events” that could spark a collapse, including the high probability of Nuclear War, a Bioengineered H5N1Pandemic, Civil War risk, which have all increased. The Probability of Collapse model now estimates a 16 to 57% annual likelihood of a collapse.
This model weighs both the probability of the initial trigger disaster event occurring, and then the likelihood of the initial disaster disruption spreading and escalating to a collapse level disaster with widespread loss of law and order, society breaks down. The likelihood of a collapse is highly uncertain, hence the large range of values, 16-57% in the probability of collapse model. But the probability is definitely not small. Biologists warn that an H5N1 or other natural or bioengineered, deliberate pandemic is inevitable. Solar flares or deliberate attacks can take out our highly fragile, vulnerable electric grid. The likelihood of a civil war that leads to widespread violence and a collapse is low, but probably rising.A detailed briefing on the annual probability of a collapse is available here:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=icOoPNvGKg4&t=1292sSurvival Training at Fortitude Ranch NevadaA group of largely current members, and some prospective new members, completed training at Fortitude Ranch Nevada last weekend.
While a variety of survival skill topics are covered, weapons training and shooting is always the most fun.
You can see upcoming survival training courses at FR locations on the Fortitude Ranch website, and on the Collapse Survivor App. Very low price (meal costs) for members.Fortitude Ranch has Sunchokes at all locations—it should be growing in your yard tooSunchoke, or “Jerusalem Artichoke” is one of the best survival foods you can plant, arguably the very best. It provides very high calories per acre with the huge added benefit of being a perennial—it comes up every year and expands to take over adjacent land. This fantastic growth is unfortunately the reason you won’t find Sunchoke at a nursery, and seeds are almost impossible to buy anywhere. This plant has been condemned as a weed, despite a decent looking flower and extremely valuable root tubers that are a fantastic survival food.
Sunchoke above at FR Texas has not yet flowered—looks like a smaller sunflower, similar seeds. Fortitude Ranch will be collecting our seeds this Fall and selling them to encourage more people to plant this crop. If we had responsible government, focused on its proper role of protecting citizens from threatsthey can’t handle on their own, Sunchoke would be a promoted plant, with people everywhere growing it so we’d have a huge, natural stockpile of life-saving food calories.Can’t afford Fortitude Ranch now? Then buy some Fortitude Tokens so you can have first place in line to join when a Collapse Disaster is about to hitThe “Fortitude” token, a cryptocurrency that runs on the “Ethereum blockchain” is a utility token that can be used to buy membership in Fortitude Ranch. It was minted several years ago to allow people waiting to join Fortitude Ranch later when a location opened near them or they could afford the full cost of membership could buy some tokens to have priority to join over cash buyers. When wait list forms, Fortitude token holders have priority to join over cash buyers (as long as at least 50% of the down payment can be made in tokens—you don’t get priority with just a few tokens).
The number of Fortitude tokens required for membership is forever fixed, as the table below shows. The price fluctuates, and some have purchased Fortitudes as an investment, planning to sell them in a pending collapse when their price is likely to soar.
For example, an individual who wants to buy a private economy room would need to own at least 10 Fortitude tokens to have priority to buy over cash buyers. The current Fortitude token price is $300. More information on Fortitudes is available on our website:
