Yep. You think we ever got out of one?
Nope. See tag line.
We are in this to the bottom.
And I’ve compared it to a guy jumping out of a plane at 10,000 feet without a chute. At first, you hardly notice the ground coming up, but the closer it gets, the faster it looks. An in the last 500 feet it’s quite fast.
I think the ground is pretty close now. The speed at which it approaches is amazing.
And then there is The Harbinger and September 23, 2015
Sure, we have been out of the recession for quite a while now.
Because it turned into a DEPRESSION, a fact not generally recognized because of the “safety net” now in place that was not there during the period 1931-1940. This “safety net”, what with rent subsidies, food assistance, and various kinds of “disability” payments, is being paid for with deficit financing of a scope never before attempted, or for the longest time, not even imaginable. We are blowing through our children’s and our grandchildren’s legacies, which makes this DEPRESSION so much worse than the “Great Depression” of the 1930’s. Its effects will be felt fifty, seventy-five, a hundred years from now, and it will negatively affect whatever national entity replaces the nation once known as “the United States of America”, in the territory on the continent of North America.
Dystopia seems to be a very real future. And closer than any of us may imagine.
Pray for an interstellar invasion.
