    What Lore Sources Contradict the idea of the NCR's Inevitable Collapse?

    Posted: 17 Dec 2020 12:12 PM PST

    There are several instances of NCR affiliated / originated NPCs in New Vegas talking about the likely downfall of their state:

    • Private O'Hanrahan speaks of many successive failed harvests
    • Chief Hanlon has some dialogue about over-pumped water sources/Aquifers
    • Doctor Thomas Hildern mentions coming starvation in a decade or so based on production v. consumption
    • Arcade (my personal fave companion) mentions dwindling medical supplies

    This gives us lots of room to draw the conclusion that the NCR is a failed state waiting to happen, and I see largely speculation to the contrary; what canon sources are there that contradict this take? Where they exist, are they coded as jingoism/bluster by NCR patriots? Are there any sources hostile to the NCR that believe they are an enduring state?

    Is Camp Folrlorn Hope a Donner party reference? The trip from Lake Donner that actually made it to civilization, after a few stops for a quick bite to eat, was known as Donner's Forlorn Hope and happened around the general area of FNV. Is there any more that might support this?
