The article has some interesting facts and stats.
The real reason why societies collapse is greed and extravagance. The same occurred with every major "civilisation" Chinese dynasties, Greeks, Romans etc... Ran out of money to support their lifestyles and like the roaring twenties lost moral compass. We are now at the top of greed and overspending.
(1) Spend more than what is coming in - go Broke, cant maintain government or military to maintain the order that Gov rely on. Today, US debt to GDP is 122%, China 287%, Japan 264%. All the wars started they are running out of manpower and ammunition not to mention budgets. Two thirds of households in the USA get gov support. During the great depression in the 1930's about 35% of the population got gov support in the way of soup kitchen. We are now well past collapse, the debt has to implode soon.
(2) Moral decline, the woke brigade where anything goes, a child can go to school thinking they are a horse and get gov support, sexuality out of control, corruption rife, the UN now found guilty of supporting the attacks that occurred in Israel as an example. Aging populations and an entitled generation will greatly accelerate any gov collapse.

That and everybody is starting to see through the systemic government corruption around the world == OK.... But will they get off there a$$ and do something about it.. ?? What will they be willing to sacrifice to take care of that.. ?? Will people ever stand up, take responsibility like in 1939 or 1941 ever again ?? At this point of the world, I'm thinking no one will do much more than complain.. Facts, details, experience, thoughts, comments... ?? |

At this point of the world, I'm thinking no one will do much more than complain.. Facts, details, experience, thoughts, comments... ?? The current generations believe in being entitled. The Gov must do something and sort it out, pay our student loans for us give us free money like what was handed out during the lockdowns. Just keep spending. There are farmers protesting allover Europe it will all come to naught. But what do you do if rent is up and food is up, cost of fuel and power is up despite Gov saying inflating is dropping. One has to keep living paying bills, making the choice to go homeliness only happens when all else fails then the bank can sit with the debt. Affordability is the worst it has ever been, cost per income is way-out of balance. There was huge gov, corporate and private debt prior to the pandemic lockdowns now debt is exploding exponentially. Gov for every $1 the gov spends it only realizes $0.5 economic growth. To keep the system and welfare funded gov debt is ballooning. Check the world debt clock (link below), Albert Einstein said, “The most powerful force in the Universe is compound interest.” He referred to it as one of the greatest “miracles” known to man. Australis biggest liability will soon be debt payment more then social and military spending, so borrowing money to pay debt it is exponential madness . US debt payments now $1TN a year.. www.usdebtclock.org/world-debt-clock.html fred.stlouisfed.org/series/GFDEBTNDramatically higher prices are partly why the typical homebuyer is now 44, whereas in 1981, the typical homebuyer was 25-34. www.cnbc.com/2017/06/23/how-much-housing-prices-have-risen-since-1940.html |

Ive had a think about this, and believe that most people are unaware of the depths of the corruption, or ignoring it hoping it will not affect them and go away.
Then there are those who sense somethings coming, either through being in touch with God touching their spirit, or careful observations of the world.
Then the majority who think its all going to keep on as it is, head in the sand types, that as long as whatever is happening doesn't affect me, I'm gonna ignore it, and it will go away.
I certainly will never be a politician, no desire at all, but, even if someone with morals enters the fray, they are soon compromised and resort to toeing the corrupt line. I also don't have any answers as to how to 'fix' the system. It has to collapse to be rebuilt, hence the slogan "build back better", and its going to fall over, I'm not making public predictions either, just saying.
This extends to mainstream news, either outright lies, or corruption of the facts to suit their political view. Some off center news services speculate on whats happening, but these elites are so cleaver they don't reveal much at all, leaving the door open to speculation and theorizing from the meager facts available, resulting in guesswork and possibly wrong conclusions. Of course, the polyfilths like this confusion as it camouflages their real actions.
We cannot be allowed to know the truth as the facard will immediately collapse and the outright fraud behind it all be exposed.
For how long can we stay out of it ? Australia has a chance to miss the civil war heading to the USA, but we will get caught up in the great deception. Those billionaires who believe in digging holes in the ground in New Zealand will be in deep doggy do do when the Earths crust moves and their "doomsday bunkers" end up destroyed and them buried inside.
The upheavals wont last for ever, 3 1/2 years only and that's the time we have to be prepared to be independent for.
Enough ramblings.....
Attention...The normality express departs in 5 minutes.

What cost of living crisis? I’m seeing ever increasing numbers of parcels in the mail system. Lots of people seem to be compulsive spenders.
