Some of you may already know the FDIC is in deep caca...my nieve brother in law, like most others think the FDIC is immune and will be there for his accounts. As of today, I have done my bank run. As for my brother in law, I hope he heeds my warning.

If the FDIC even needs to be bailed out it shows how bad it is.

The beginning of the end...

The FDIC is not going to go bankrupt you silly man.
The whole country would have to be bankrupt first.
Think of the value of the Navy alone.
Trillions of dollars in assets right there.
Paranoia

Wait....do you really think the government is going to sell the navy? Or is that sarcasm I detect?

The FDIC won't go bankrupt because we can print money. That will however destroy the dollar and therefore America. Then we can start selling the Navy and everything else.

I have too, but I bought prep stuff instead of withdrawing money. In a collapse those withdrawn dollars won't be worth much.
