They're only obscure because TEOTWAWKI itself can mean many things: E.M.P., supervolcano, meteor impact, disease pandemic, nuclear war, nuclear winter, artificial intelligence, anthropogenic global warming, ice age, terrorism, civil war.
The only one I take seriously is economic collapse. (Terorism and E.M.P. are distant seconds.) The root cause of economic collapse is obvious enough: It's our government's intent to spend itself into oblivion through the exploitation of fiat currency.
re: "Step 1 has been taken, recognition that what is happening is elitist exploitation of society overall and squeezing every last penny out of the people, who have not organized to defend themselves and our way of life. "
While I agree that that may be Step 1, I disagree that it has been taken. Remember that the problem is bigger than just us. It's global. Most of the world hasn't acted out against the Establishment. The Brits have; we have and Iceland. Has anyone else?
While some of President Trump's supporters may be rebelling against elitist exploitation of society, I think many were actually rebelling against Hillary Clinton. If Bernie Sanders had been the Left's nominee, he would be President today. Bernie's policies were even worse than Hillary's. Joe Biden would also have won, and he's as "Establishment" as they come.
Meanwhile, eight months in office and the U.S. debt under Donald Trump is continuing to worsen. It made headlines for topping $20 trillion yesterday. If those who tally the federal debt want to be honest, they'd also include Social Security and Medicare obligations... suddenly turning our twenty trillion dollar debt into a ONE HUNDRED AND TWENTY trillion debt. Conservatively. I think the number is more like $200 trillion.
We have 325 million citizens in the United States. There's at least a hundred and twenty trillion dollar debt. Do the math. We're NOT going to find a clean solution to this mess. It's far too late for that.
Gold is $1,581/oz today. When it hits $2,000, it will be up 26.5%. Let's see how long that takes. - De 3/11/2013 - ANSWER: 7 Years, 5 Months

"Today, I read that half of Americans haven't got a pot to pi$$ in. For them, TEOTWAWKI has already come."
Step 1 has been taken, recognition that what is happening is elitist exploitation of society overall and squeezing every last penny out of the people, who have not organized to defend themselves and our way of life.
I would argue people have take the first step, election of Donald Trump, who may be the only hope in reversing the malaise brought to us by Soros and company. And, I might add that the CEOs of Google, Facebook, etc., are part of that same problem. They, for example, kicked in with Soros to put BLM on the map as a destabilizing influence.
The whole Socialist initiative to bring down society and assert fascist, totalitarian control of an impoverished electorate and then reversing Democracy is well in motion. And through Orwellian means, they project responsibility on the other side, those who defend liberty and the American way of life.
The root causes of TEOTWAWKI are very obscure . . .
