As the initial shock begins to wear off (and it will take time), what contingency plans should we each be making to try and weather what may come? For example:
1) Is there a list of vaccines that we should be considering while we still can?
2) What financial moves should we be making over the next two months?
3) What steps should we be taking in the interest of personal safety?
These are just three major considerations that are on my mind as I start to wake up to what I'd hoped was just a nightmare. Anyone have any advice? What other questions should be considered?

Financially I would make sure any assets are backed by Government insurance, FDIC, or private SPIC, if any of those still have use. There can be tax planning done in the final 2 months of the year.
I would want any accounts, assets I have in responsible institutions in well regulated states. There are states with lax regulations, and they should be avoided in my opinion.
Personal safety. Hmm. Find local supporters. Democrats may go quiet, but they can go quiet together and back each other up.

There will be more need for grease - greasing palms - if this goes according to all other fascist states.
I thought it was an interesting coiincidence that Warren Buffett just this week announced more of a cash position.
Timing is everything.
