The German elites see what is coming:
German authorities are set to introduce a new state defense plan that would make citizens stockpile food and water, enough to last for at least ten days, in the event of a major disaster or an armed attack, local media revealed.
The nation is to be encouraged to put away food reserves to take care of themselves in case of emergency, Frankfurter Allgemeine Sonntagszeitung (FAS) daily reported on Sunday citing a 69-page draft drawn up by the Interior Ministry.
Alarm systems, better building protection, wider health care coverage have also been named among the necessary things needed to boost security level in the country…
Though an attack in Germany is not seen possible, people should “prepare appropriately for a development that could threaten our existence and cannot be categorically ruled out in the future,” the report suggested.
Ah, the calming influence of respected German leaders. In other words, there is absolutely zero chance of civilized society utterly going to fuck, and everyone being thrown into a life or death Darwinian struggle with starvation, chaos, and anarchy – but you really should prepare for it happening in the near future anyway.
I generally try to see things through other people’s eyes. Here, I get an eerie feeling. This kind of feels like I would see it feeling if the leaders of western civilization were running the biggest Ponzi scheme in history on every citizen in the world. It is going great, they control the entire narrative, and their operators are installed in every position of authority where their scheme might be exposed. Their economic experts are telling them that they have ten to fifteen years of easy conning left, before the house of cards begins to come down.
Then, all of a sudden, one man shows up who is not part of their little cabal, who might just be crazy enough to expose their entire operation and bring it all down in a fiery cataclysm, and he is heading right toward the most powerful office on earth.
Alternately, they know that the powers that be intend to crash things purposely to tarnish Donald Trump’s administration, and so it will all come down in the very near future. There is also the possibility that the smart Germans see an angry Europe, destitute, hungry, and in the throes of Islamic insurgency, growing enraged and blaming Germany for their migrant civil wars, as they rage over Germany’s higher levels of wealth. Those are the things that invasions are made of.
Either way, German leaders clearly see an Apocalypse in our future – maybe closer than we would think. The truth is, I am little worried this may be more Apocalypse than we really need. A little nationalism expelling foreigners and ostracizing leftists is a good Apocalypse. A World War that kills a hundred million K-strategists is not a good Apocalypse, at least not by K-standards. Sadly, that may be just the Apocalypse we are heading for.

Option 3: Your Option 1, where they know they have ten or fifteen years of easy conning left… except that was 15 years ago at the turn of the century. They’ve run out of ways to kick the can, and the preference cascade of “it’s over” is starting.
