Chris Martenson- The Crash Course

Dr Chris Martenson is the Host and producer of Peak Prosperity.com.  Peak Prosperity features experts from the worlds of energy, finance and resources. They discuss the potential threats that we face in the near future. The free downloadable weekly podcasts are available under the Featured Voices section of the website as well as  a direct link from Prepper Recon.com under Prepper Links.

The following video is Chris Martenson delivering a very condensed version of  “The Crash Course”. It is about 38 minutes long and covers possible causes  of an economic collapse in the near term future. He speaks briefly about environmental issues and difficulties involved with peak oil. The majority of his presentation is geared towards critical economic instabilities that will trigger the coming collapse. Chris Martenson gives a very direct presentation  that could be understood by a 10 year old who has never heard the word “economics” before. Yet he still provides fresh information in such a way that everyone will learn something, no matter how well educated.

I think there is great value in this video as a tool to open the eyes of those you care about. It is a window to a world that will be very different from the world of the recent past. If you have a spouse or family member who has been reluctant to start prepping, this may be the simple presentation that will get them to start thinking about it. If you enjoy this condensed version of  The Crash Course,you can watch the Full 3 hour Crash Course. It is very informative and presented in a very easy to understand way.

Peak Prosperity is not your average prepper site. It is not so much how we prepare, but it provides some of the most compelling reasons to prep that I have ever heard. In preparedness, it is very important to know what you are preparing for in order to properly plan. The Crash Course explains the instabilities in the financial system and the political hurdles to overcoming those problems. It also discusses at length, issues we will face in the future with resource scarcity. Chris Martenson has a new podcast available each weekend and most of his old podcasts are available to download free.
