But the essential piece -- the piece that will soon destroy us -- is the systemic denial on the topic of debt and deficits discussed in this AJC column by a Hoover fellow and evidenced by the delusional celebration over the Republican House's planned $100 billion in budget cuts for next year.
So let me get this straight -- Americans are supposed to be impressed by the Dead Elephants' willingness to cut less than 10% of the current deficit, every cent of which is being borrowed from, among others, our strategic competitors?
Denninger called it right, for sure.
Time to face ground truth, folks.
1) We're completely screwed.
2) Most people on this continent (I won't dignify them by calling them "Americans") will not resist, but instead accept the chains/RFIDs of their new masters with, at most, some grumbling.
3) The new masters will attempt to eradicate the few of us who understand, as witnesses to the biggest crime in human history.
If that grim prognosis doesn't push you into serious PT, gear dispersal, and other DEFCON 2 preps, I don't know what will.
Good luck to all.
And to those who are responsible:
Your time will come.

Your "alert" poster brought a catch phrase to mind: "I aim to misbehave".
ReplyDeleteA upgrade in privileges?

ReplyDeleteLooks like your standard three step prognosis and exhortation has (d?)evolved.
Can't say that I blame you.
I would add my .02, if I may, to your old three step plan.
1. We're completely screwed. Agree.
2. There's gonna be a fight. Without another gross misstep on the part of FedGov, it's looking like you're right: "Most people on this continent will not resist, but instead accept the chains/RFIDs of their new masters with, at most, some grumbling."
3. Let's win. Looks like "victory" may consist of futile actions taken by scattered individuals who are summarily killed or imprisoned. "Victory" may just mean having the honor to stand for right and being punished for resisting tyranny.
All this may be true. But...
(expletive)
This fight ain't over yet...
Resist.

That linkee works well! Got me a MadCow poster!
ReplyDeleteI love the poster concept. And, it's fitting they've been filming in Michigan --Ground Zero of the [real] Economic Collapse.
ReplyDeleteIt becomes so much easier after one realizes that freedom cannot be voted into office.
ReplyDeleteYou don't change the nature of a death camp by electing a new Kommandant, Kapos and guards.
Change all of its agent, but the State does not change. It grows, and liberty decreases.
I think "The Day The Dollar Died" scenario might get played out...
ReplyDeleteLook: those who know know the whole debt is a massive fraud-all the austerity measures... that's what they are, for us... all the budget cuts for medicaid and medicare, and other programs the beast allots to it's slaves-that's to further break us all down.
Those who will to be free are stronger than those who will to keep American Idol on. It will be Our America-what Americans fought and died for for centuries-against the federal beast and its minions in and in bondage to it.
They have the accumulated resources of two centuries of an ascendant superpower but they lack the commitment that we Americans do have. This continent, this planet, is too small for TWO Americas. We are NOT the beast but we shall bring it down.

How utterly bleak a prospect you're all buying into.
More bleak even than the teotwawki we read so much about.
Do you think that leviathan can survive and thrive an economic collapse/catastrophic natural disaster better than we preppers? They cannot just grind on inexorably, winning by sheer inertia if the whole system collapses, as we here our selves predict and expect.
Cheer up. Freedom to do for ourselves as best we may under terrible conditions is just around the corner... one way or another.
And who says that it is inevitable that those who resist in a kinetic way are automatically toast? Whatever happened to opsec, training, planning, prepping, e & e, and all the other topics we should be studying and applying?
I'm sick of the defeatism.
Resist! the urge toward despair... or you've lost before you have even begun.

ReplyDeleteNote the following words in the post:
...will attempt to eradicate...
I did not say they would succeed, or my advice would have been more hemlockian.
When I am fooked, I want to hear it.
I can then decide, as a free man, what to do about it.
We're fooked.
Stand ready.
Appreciate the encouragement.
