Preparing for the Soviet-style collapse of America

To the person who claimed that Europe is preventing the US from collapsing. This shows how ignorant you are of what globalists want: they want a world in which everyone belongs to everyone else. Did you know that the US taxpayers during 08-09 bailed out European banks? If Europe goes, so does the US. Globalists want this type of a system.
China and Russia are the world powers, Americans are just ignoring the reality. Russia doesn't have the debt, is keeping its gold, and isn't backing down to the US. More than anything, this shows the new reality. Americans like to think they can go to war with both, but how? With what money? With what resources? Also, for those of you who haven't been paying attention, China did get involved with the US vs. Russia a while back, basically stating, "US mind your own business." China owns the US.
Which goes to the next point. If China has $2 trillion in US dollars, they can't let the dollar die, right? Wrong. They have billions ($600+) in Russia, they have billions in Brazil, Canada, even some of Europe. They also have been buying oil like crazy during the fall because they know that they'll need more of it. Finally, they don't disclose how much gold they own very often, but we can look at the amount of gold that Hong Kong has been importing and it's quite a lot. This is generally how the Chinese secretly buy gold.
Remember, Americans: you've been voting for Harvard idiots who think gold is a barbaric relic when it has a 6000+ history of credibility behind it (and the dollar has what?).
Is China backing down from its military island? No. They are not afraid of a contest with the US and I predict that they will win if it comes to that (hopefully it doesn't). What China wants, like Russia, is that the US simply declines like the UK did because it would be less dramatic and use fewer resources for everyone involved. This just means that Americans will be looking at much lower standards of living relative to China and Russia.
As for Russia's current economic crisis, this shows how little media understand reality. In reality, when a country, like Russia, is too dependent on a resource (like oil), they learn from the hard times that they should be less dependent on it. The result is new ideas and businesses that strengthen the country. Texans like to talk about how their state is so awesome, but they forget that they are doing well because of the painful lessons they learned in the 80s (they were too dependent on oil then). Pain leads to growth. What will people be saying about Russia in 30 years? Also, the media hate Russia because of Putin, who is one of the last politicians remaining who isn't a globalist playing the globalist's game.
How to be prepared:
1. The worst option, but better than what most are doing is to hold one full year's worth of expenses in gold. If you spend $20K a year, buy that much in gold. All this does is buy you time during a crisis to make other plans. This is not an ideal option because gold isn't a producing asset and once you exchange it, that's it.
2. Buy land and use it to produce assets. Think of something like livestock (living stocks). These assets produce; they provide food. Consider though that it can take a long time to be prepared with producing land. Apple trees don't immediately produce apples when you buy them, so the earlier you start, the better. You also want to make sure that your land is far away from any city where people could walk to it. No matter how many guns you own, you can't fight off 100,000 people. Basically, very few people should be able to make it to your land, and you should construct it where only someone familiar with it has the advantage in a contest (think of Vietnam vs. the US - the Vietnamese had tunnels to contest soldiers and used these to their advantage).
3. Buy physical storage units. This is the best, and requires that you've done number two. Basically, you have storage for water, the food that you've produced (that you can store), and any other necessary resources. This is the new savings/retirement plan. Put it this way: every dollar you buy water with is taxed, whereas all the rainwater you store and filter is untaxed. Add this up and over time, it becomes more obvious why producing your own assets is the new path to riches.
Added:
4. Store and print out valuable Wikipedia/resources pages for being self-reliant. These can be pages covering how to handle common medical issues, to various problems you can face when producing your own assets. The advantage of storing electronic information is that you can duplicate it easily and access it easily. The problem - EMPs. The benefit of paper is that it's immune to EMPs, but can easily be destroyed by water, fire, etc.
One of my greatest fears is that with all of the progress we as humans have made in the past fifty years, we'll let stupidity (all leftism) stand in the way of and lose all of this. Think about where we would be now if we hadn't lost all of the progress made in Greece/Rome? This is the biggest concern for humanity's future; we are literally letting losers stand in the way of future generations of humanity.
