The South is certainly not gonna rise again. People are not going to start aborting all male children because you and your friends are homophobes. Are you into some Mayan nonsense? Do you think God is about to come back?
WHAT TRUTH? You don't even seem to be able to share what you think you see.
Our economic troubles are NOT insurmountable. Yes, even if you stop being counter prodcutive it may still be difficult to affect change. I certainly don't see how you think your preparations will help.
Alright, let me explain it in terms a faux libertarian like you can understand (although I am dubious). It doesn't matter who wins the election. Let me repeat. It doesn't matter who wins the election. That is why I am voting for Calvin Coolidge.
The debt that is on the books is $16 trillion. That is 100% of our GDP. The American people don't get it. They squawk about cutting spending until someone talks about one of their gobblement benefits then they raise a shit fit and then it doesn't get cut. Allow me to give you some of the reasons we will never cut spending.
1) It benefits old fuckers. Well, we can't touch that spending
2) It benefits little fuckers. Well, we gotta keep paying for the kiddies and their Headstart, SCHIP, free lunch, free breakfast, free phones etc
3) It benefits veterans.
4) It benefits poor fuckers. We gots ta pay fo da heat and da phone and da lectric and da water and the colt 45 etc
Add it all up and you ain't cutting shit out of the budget. You will yammer about it, but it aint getting done. So instead you will say "Hey, I have a wonderful idea, lets tax the rich. They don't need it and they stole it from the po anyway". Except, they don't have enough money to pay for all the shit that we owe.
So how will this all come tumbling down? No I don't believe in some mayan calendar or some zombie apocalypse, but I do believe that one day there is going to be a debt auction and nobody is going to show up. Right now the Fed is buying up almost all of our debt. How long do you think that can keep up sparky?
Did you see durable good orders? It spells recession.
So, as I said. I could play the my side is better than your side game, but it don't matter. So I am preparing for my own personal well being. How hard is it to understand? Junk silver is the only thing to own when our fiat money is finally kaput. Gold bullion? The gobblement tracks that and confiscates it even today. But silver is still official US currency. I get as much as I can get my hands on. If you don't understand why, then PM me. For a small fee, I will explain it to you
