Collapse of Global Civilization by 2020-Irrefutable Evidence

Simple really….when the World Economy Collapses everything shuts down…the end….we're talking about grids and JIT systems down all over the world and 7.5B people dropping like f*** flies in short order…The collapse will be absolutely horrible..There is no collapse or horror movie ever produced that has even come close to imagining what the collapse of BAU might look like. I'm talking about every corporation and every social program going bankrupt at once.I'm talking about people eating people. I'm talking about the Worst Catastrophe to ever happen in the history of mankind. Nothing has ever, or will ever come close. (MIT Smithsonian Meadows 1972) (Royal Society Ehrlich 2013)
