No? I would buy bitcoin, guns and ammo. Literally what the fuck are you going to do with gold? It's a shiny rock that has no intrinsic value, no longer backed up by anything because the US would be in the middle of shitting itself.

Gold is only slightly better than nothing in a SHTF scenario
Food, water, guns, ammo, shelter, farmland
All so much more valuable

Some of us are stuck here. Then there are those of us who see it as an opportunity to uplift their socio-economic status. It's disruptive events like a civil war that shuffles the power order and is the best moment to display leadership qualities to uplift oneself. Without disruption in society, the current corrupt elite will continue to drive society into decay.

It was one thing when the USA robbed the world. Robbing itself and each other was stupid. People are straight up mentally ill, completely crazy, useless in terms of helping themselves or participating in any kind of liberal economy (Austrian economy, real economy).
The canyon between the people that can and those that cannot is so wide, and there's nothing to catch them if the dollar starts to go, which it is.

Because the split isn't territorial you fuckin mong. Every neighborhood in the US is virtually a 50/50 ideological split. The people you'd be fighting are your next door neighbors. The added problem there is you cannot cut off enemy supply lines without also cutting off your own. Every railroad line, every highway, every power plant that serves the enemy also serves you.
The war would essentially be like a sort micro version of "island hopping," but with raiding nearby homes and apartments while defending your own. The only viable strategy in such a scenario is to turn your personal home into a seige-proof bunker.
