Wall Street advisor recommends guns, ammo for protection in collapse

[Wilikon]

A top financial advisor, worried that Obamacare, the NSA spying scandal and spiraling national debt is increasing the chances for a fiscal and social disaster, is recommending that Americans prepare a “bug-out bag” that includes food, a gun and ammo to help them stay alive.

David John Marotta, a Wall Street expert and financial advisor and Forbes contributor, said in a note to investors, “Firearms are the last item on the list, but they are on the list. There are some terrible people in this world. And you are safer when your trusted neighbors have firearms.”

His memo is part of a series addressing the potential for a “financial apocalypse.” His view, however, is that the problems plaguing the country won't result in armageddon. “There is the possibility of a precipitous decline, although a long and drawn out malaise is much more likely,” said the Charlottesville, Va.-based president of Marotta Wealth Management.

Marotta said that many clients fear an end-of-the-world scenario. He doesn’t agree with that outcome, but does with much of what has people worried.

“I, along with many other economists, agree with many of the concerns expressed in these dire warnings. The growing debt and deficit spending is a tax on those holding dollars. The devaluation in the U.S. dollar risks the dollar's status as the reserve currency of the world. Obamacare was the worst legislation in the past 75 years. Socialism is on the rise and the NSA really is abrogating vast portions of the Constitution. I don't disagree with their concerns,” he wrote.

In his latest note, he said that Americans should have a survival kit to take in case of a financial or natural disaster. It should be filled with items that will help them stay alive for the first 72-hours of a crisis, including firearms.

“A bug-out bag is a good idea depending on where you live even if the emergency is just power outages, earthquakes and hurricanes. And with your preparedness you will be equipped to help others who might be in need,” he wrote. “Be prepared. Especially because it keeps you from being scared.”

He provided a list of items and even a link to bug-out bags on Amazon.

So someone already predicts that Obamacare will ruin the economy of the US. I think we'll face another recession scenario, similar to the one in 2008-09, once the full effects of Obamacare are known.

[Wilikon]

The system was never implemented to save anyone money or have better health coverage. I believe this was the first step for a Cloward–Piven like strategy. They thought they were smart enough for a controlled demolition project for the whole US, making it better for everyone on the long long. They created a monster that will eat a lot of innocent people.

Let's not forget: $600M for the website. It is still not working but the same people who built it will "fix it". No one has been fired yet. No one. Coincidence?

It is hard to believe everything we see now and further down the road is happening randomly.

well the funny thing is that government has bought up much of the ammunition reserves.. they might be privy to what may happen in the near future.

The downturn begins 2015.75 and there is some probability it will descend into a Madmax chaos:

Why did Congress cut a budget deal extending it on autopilot until September 30th, 2015 the precise day of the high of this wave 2015.75? How can the computer predict war accurately when I did not consciously try to do that? This is not me coming up with a theory. This is me stumbling upon something that has incredible order hidden deep within, which is fascinating.

I like how the bug-out-bag is "Out of Stock" on Amazon.  

I guess it is disconcerting.  To blame Obamacare though?  That seems a bit extreme, but I suppose it could have a small part in the demise of the economy.  I think the endless printing of money and the devaluation of USD is a bigger issue, but what do I know.

As for the guns, we don't have any in our house.  We do have a pretty vicious little pit bull mix.  That should do.   Better stock up on dog food too though!

You guys should definitely prepare, quite soon.  Get plenty of food next time you go out.  Buy seeds to plant food.  Fast.  We do not need to eat everyday of the week, plus it's good for your spirit.  If you're going to use a gun, it better be for self defense, not for supplies or because you want to run shit.  Nobody will be running the world in the coming days, anyone who attempts to will be knocked off their pedestal.

Scratch that, don't use a gun at all.  We can only win this battle through peace.  Unconditional love is the answer.  Communicate the message of unconditional love, communicate my story, communicate a gathering of people out west to reunite the family of earth.

Sacrifices may be made, but thou shall reap what he sow.  Forgiveness is easy to talk, not as easy to feel.  You will feel the impact of your actions, karma is real and will make presence in your life.  If you are prepared spiritually it may be easier, if your intentions are negative, you will get your karma.  This entire world is turning to a higher frequency of love, do not be fooled to think you can feed off negativity endlessly on this planet.  Empathy will be felt.  Love will be found.  Egodeath is a hard road to walk but it is a necessary happening in the evolution of man kind.

The transition should not be long.  I couldn't expect more than a month.  It will be as fast as we make it, though I will not be around to help through it, it is up to you to carry the word of god/love and stand up for peace in the darkness of days to come.

Please do not be shy to spread this message.  The more people that know, the easier the transition will be.

It should not be long.  I will see you all at the music festival, those that stand long shall walk into heaven, world peace.

I have requested a few more months at a minimum as it is new news to me that my time will be coming soon, I would really enjoy a little more time on this planet as it has been for millennia and as it has grown for millions of years.  I was literally given a sign outside my house to affirm my thoughts.

It's a little sad in the sense none of this has to happen.  Those in power can keep their power, their wealth, their life.  All they need to do is show some responsibility and respect humans to some degree.  They will be washed with empathy and compassion for humanity and earth regardless, so they might as well do so consciously.  Those higher powers reading this know what I'm talking about.  They know an alternative to killing me, they know it is possible to do given the right circumstances, and they know it has been done by a close friend of mine and people throughout history.  They know with enough positive energy, we can defy physics, we can take flight without the cost of life.  They have the ability to retain what is theirs within a smoother, albeit longer transition for themselves.  That length of time is trivially small relative to infinity or even life itself.  Once the dollar collapses, all illusions of power are gone, they might as well retain their property until the day of heaven.  It would behoove them greatly.

Not many people will read this.  If you are, you are a chosen one in the sense you have premier wisdom and knowledge that must be shepherded to the weak, the strong, the brave and the fear.  You are a beacon of light in this world.  Remember, unconditional love.

Also, if a need arises they can seize the ammunition factories and increase the production. I am wondering why the Bitmunitions site is not working...

if everything goes to shit, there may not be someone running the world.. but there will be lots of people who will be ambitious enough to try. lots of bloodshed will be felt, especially since the economy won't be strong enough to feed 7+ billion people.

Anyone who attempts to stop the divine plan of nature correcting itself will be dropped down to the ground.  Even if not by another human, god will redeem their karma.  Once we're in heaven, you have the freewill to go to another life, you can be the greatest king or elite on another planet, you can be anything, it's in everyone's favor to work towards this effort.  We just need peace for a blink of an eye and you can have complete freedom.

It's a fallacy that we need any sort of economy to feed anyone.  The united states produces enough crop to feed the entire world, there is no reason anybody should have to die from hunger.  People should keep working as they are now, as long as their job contributes positively to society.  Communities and neighborhoods should grow their own crop and share with each other.

When I posted the link it was NOT out of stock. There were still a few left.
Regarding blaming obamacare for the upcoming zombie apocalypse being a bit unfair? It is not. I am glad you are not going to be exposed from the fine prints of obamacare, but millions will. Check out the obamacare thread.

Hmm pit bull mix versus lead and gun powder mix shot from a hand gun. Who will win? Chaos means chaos means chaos.

I was just saying it was out of stock because everyone wants one!  You are not the only one worried I guess.

I am not a fan of Obamacare at all, don't get me wrong.  Just not sure how it can bring an apocalypse? 

I was kidding about my pit bull.  He is a vicious guy though.  We had to bring grandpa to the emergency room.  He is better than nothing.

It is easy to love dogs more than some humans. I do. I would save my dog against anyone thinking getting into my home with a weapon.


Regarding how obamacare could be the first domino for the zombie apocalypse, something very "fishy" happened a while back:

Could be coincidence for the glitch or bad taste for the fake tweet... Or a rehearsal of some kind. For you or myself it is like "whatever! So what?" But for the facebook generation, free stuff is a human right. Any rumors about stopping any government program will lead to riots and mayhem.

At least for slavery you had slave catchers. But now no need. You give yourself willingly. Body, soul and privacy.
