Ah so many good comments, my sister has had bear , cyote and human problems already on her farm these last months and that with out a collapse. The bear and cyotes killed half the goats and some cows and one of the neighbors stole all her chickens. She couldn’t farm this year because of taking care of our mother and then her husband, who died. It has taken her months to try to clean up brush from the perpetual storms and she has run through her prepping supplies.
They did drag in city kids to work the farms during both WW’s. But when thing really fall apart mostly you just subsist. And man you are right about how hard it is to get a far up and running again once it has been neglected. Had that experience on one in Kansas that had been left for a number of years.
Even if this would be a correction it will be a painful one for many many people world wide.
