The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

Always can buy physical gold but I'm not sure how easily you could use that in a catastrophe. - richinmd

Better than gold is toilet paper and ammo. Can trade for things in much smaller denominations that way. One round of .223 for a can of pork and beans is more useful than 1 oz of gold for 500 cans.
