How Low Can You Go?

Guest Post by Jim Kunstler

New Poll Reveals that Most Americans Think the Country Is Going Downhill |  Teen Vogue

Remember the limbo? It was a dance fad kind of like the Olympic high jump in reverse: instead of leaping over a horizontal bar, you duck-walked under it to calypso music, with the crowd squealing, “How low can you go?” As it happens, in the culture of Western Civ, Limbo is also the name of a place on the edge of Hell. Either way, you have an apt metaphor for the spot that the USA is in as we enter the summer of double-deuce.

Lots of things are going south all at once: the stock markets and bond prices, Bitcoin is doing a vanishing act. The Colorado River reservoirs, Lake Powell and Lake Mead, are so low that, by September, both water and electricity may run out for a vast region that includes Phoenix, Las Vegas, and Southern California. The housing market is tanking (suburbia’s business model is broken). Whole herds of beef cattle roll over and die out on the range. Fertilizer is scarce. Food processing plants get torched by the dozen. Shortages loom.

The oil-and-gas industry is getting killed four ways: 1) our stupid Russia sanctions queered longstanding global distribution arrangements; 2) the industry is starved for capital; 3) depletion is seriously kicking in; and 4) “Joe Biden” and the knuckleheads running the EU countries are trying to kill it so as to usher in a Green New Deal that just doesn’t pencil-out.

The car dealers have no new cars on their lots, and pretty soon they’ll run out of decent used cars — which, these days, are often priced higher than the non-existent new cars. How’s that for a business model? Plus, the financially beaten-up middle-class can’t afford cars in either case, and increasingly can’t qualify for car loans.

The airline industry reels with a sucking chest wound due to a pilot shortage (thanks to vaxx mandates) and the high cost of jet fuel. The trucking industry’s business model is also broken with diesel fuel over six dollars a gallon — the cost of delivery exceeds the value of the cargo. America runs on trucks and if they stop running, so does everything else. Replacement parts are growing scarce for every mechanical device in the land. It’s getting harder to fix anything that’s broken.

“Joe Biden’s” proxy war against Russia in Ukraine isn’t working out. It was flamboyantly stupid from the get-go. We deliberately broke the Minsk agreements for a cease-fire in the Donbas to goad the Russians into action. NATO didn’t have the troops or the political mojo to back up its US-inspired bluster. Our financial warfare blew back in our faces and actually benefited the Russian economy and its currency, the ruble. The billions of dollars in weapons we’re sending into the war are easily interdicted in transport, or else are getting loose in a world of non-state maniacs ranging from the Taliban to al Qaeda to drug cartels.

Meanwhile, Russia steadfastly grinds out a victory on-the-ground that will leave it in control of the Black Sea and will reveal the USA’s lost capacity to impose its will around the world. In other words, our Ukraine project “to weaken Russia” brought on an epochal shift in the balance of power to our enormous disadvantage. This is on top of more than twenty years of US military fiascos from Afghanistan, to Iraq, to North Africa, to Syria which demonstrated our reckless disregard for human life and a gross inability to carry out a mission. This aggregate failure and display of weakness leaves us vulnerable to Chinese aggression in the Pacific. There is even spooky chatter now about China venturing to invade Australia, Japan, and the USA mainland. Yes, really.

With all this to be concerned about, half the American public, and the “Joe Biden” regime they insist they elected, remain in thrall to the Covid-19 horror movie and at the mercy of the deadly mRNA pharmaceutical products that were magically waiting in-advance of the outbreak to profit on it. But now, all the cover stories are falling apart. It’s getting harder to conceal the deaths and injuries caused by the vaccines, including a striking drop in fertility and the permanent damage to millions of people’s immune systems that will lay them low with cancer, neurological illness, and cardiovascular disease in the months ahead.

The CDC / FDA / Pharma cabal’s strategy-for-now: keep bluffing and quintupling down on their cover up — they just sweepingly approved mRNA shots for babies. Why? To extend the emergency use authorization that shields Pfizer and Moderna from liability. It won’t work long, of course, because under settled law fraud vacates that kind of protection, and the public health officials with their Pharma cronies have orchestrated the deadliest fraud in human history.

If there is an American nation left in a year or so, with a functioning legal system, the players in this cabal are going to land in witness chairs to explain why they killed so many people. (“We were following The Science,” they’ll say. Uh-huh….) By then, no one will believe their bullshit and it will be off to the American limbo known as Palookaville for the likes of Fauci, Collins, Gates, Bourla, Bancel, Walensky and the gang.

To try to head-off anything like that, the “Joe Biden” regime just announced a second attempt to control the news-flow with a White House Disinformation Task Force, to replace the ludicrous Homeland Security Disinformation Governance Board that flopped so miserably in May when its appointed chief, Ms. Jankowicz, turned out to be a prime purveyor of disinformation. The new Disinfo Task Force, led by Veep Kamala Harris — who performed so well in her previous assignment as Border Czar — is pretending to be all about online sexual harassment and gender bigotry. I’m sure….

It won’t work. “Joe Biden” is running on empty. His regime staggers on in a delirium and an odium, like one of those groaning, brain-leaking zombies on cable-TV. The voters are poised to unload two barrels of buckshot to this monster’s head in September, if we are not prevented from holding elections by yet another bogus “emergency.” Until then, we’re in a race to see just how the Party of Chaos completes the destruction of the economy, which is the prelude to the people of the USA destroying the Party of Chaos.

I read his “World Made By Hand” post-apocalyptic dystopia books, and they were not half bad. Somehow, they actually came off as more hopeful than a lot of this genre. There was a lot to criticize, but over-all, they were reasonable entertaining, and worth the read.

Thanks, Jim, for another in-your-face reality check. WTF have we done to deserve all this chaos? Seems like judgment day is either coming like a freight train straight for US OF A or it’s already here. God help us. One good thing Trump did is to pull the cover off the swamp to begin to reveal the rot that’s been festering for a long, long time. Keep on, brother. God bless and protect you. Looking forward to the next one.

I just last night saw my first true video of some of the carnage at the Jan 6 event on Flashpoint Live on the Victory channel. There was a tunnel that leads presumably into the “government property” that was completely filled with Trump supporters that they completely plugged one end with “cops” in riot gear using rubber bullets, paint ball gun, and batons to start beating the people in the tunnel. They were then pushing them on top of each other and literally causing people to fall under the mass and be trampled. Thankfully only four people died in this melee and some of the people outside were begging the police to stop beating and pushing. No such luck, so they started going in and trying to pull some of the people out underneath the crowd. One of the people who was aiding, the best he could, was then arrested ten days later and has been in jail ever since. Now, I say this to say if they are able to get away with this and keep video’s like this out of the news for this long while keeping people in jail since that fateful day, how do you or anybody else think they will allow us to vote our way out of this?

The so called Mid Terms are in about 150 days. Let’s see if we make it that far, I give it a coin flip of a chance. And regardless of who “wins” it won’t make a difference because Brandon has destroyed any chance of a soft landing, the just in time supply chain has broken, it is running on vapers right now and is probably going to implode, especially after the vaxxed injuries and deaths further degrade the US economy.
And the obvious ongoing sabotage of the food industry, by Brandon or Spetznatz or radical vegand, doesn’t matter who just that it’s happening and so far the Feds are too busy with school board meeting disruptors to notice, means that even if they could move food around the country, they won’t have anything to ship.

So far the lowest I’ve hit is spending the day trying to do redneck science because my A/C can’t keep up with the Texas heat. Unfortunately, all I can come up with is a DIY swamp cooler in the form of a bowl of ice in front of a box fan. Not sure it’ll work because the humidity is already too high for the AC to produce cold air. It’s gonna be a hot summer. Thankfully it takes roughly two weeks for heat acclimation to fully set in and I’m nearly half-way there.

samthere403

I’m in NC and it’s been pretty hot here, although I’m sure it’s not as hot as it is there. I was just thinking of heat acclimation yesterday and how it works. I think I’m about halfway there now also.

Why can’t it keep up? Is it old or undersized or need a charge of freon?. They have a portable AC set up at Lowes that will cool a room. You just open a window and put the hose insert panel to vent to the outside. I keep one on hand just in case. I used to use it in the garage and it would cool down nicely

It’s old and repairs at my apartment complex have gone to shit since the pandemic.

My next door neighbor whose A/C broke a month ago told me he bought a window unit for $65 from a local pawn shop. I’m probably going to go that route of finding a slightly used window unit.

So it’s on the landlord that squeaks when he/she walks. Reminds me of the hardware store I worked part time until last summer. The HVAC system was 1976 vintage. Winter was not so bad just wear a long sleeve flannel shirt and pants. Summers, even with shorts and moisture wicking T-shirt it sucked. It would reach 90 very often in that building. And this was before pandemic as the owner and management were taking “must be nice” elaborate vacations to New York City, Chicago, frankly places I could give a rats about visiting all the while employees sweating. 70K GM diesel pickup trucks, 40K boats…squeak, squeak, squeak.

Excuse me, the owner’s boat was over 60K. It was huge. Just remember now when Warp Speed came around the owner decided to try to sell the boat. Meanwhile as the customer is always right, the number that said it was hot in that building must mean it was hot in that building and was.

Might have a PTAC (Packaged Terminal Air Conditioner). Through the wall, ‘self contained’. May/may not have additional interior ducting. Louvers/grill visible immeadiately outside, typically rectangular. Doesn’t matter if it’s a window unit – 50 ton rooftop penthouse climate changer. Same refrigerant. Same pressures, given same ambient temperature. You can tell the ambient air temp. by hooking gauge to refrigerant tank and reading corresponding temp., ‘Scale’ color coded/printed descriptor for the various refrigerants. p.s.i.g. – p.s.i.a. differ by 14.7 p.s.i.

Even at my aging age I try to stay leather tough by physically working outside with sweat pouring off my head as if someone is pouring water over my head. Last week the heat index here reached 110. It could have been worse in areas like Fort Worth as I did notice actual temps 3-4 degrees higher in FW than ET. Still, the heat can be a beast and of course the heat index compounded by humidity. At least here there are shade trees. In FW all the concrete , paved parking lots etc. makes it worse as these things reflect more heat back in one’s face rather than absorbing it like dirt and vegetation.

Last week I was in older man syndrome with a shovel and pickup truck making three trips four miles away for some free , marvelous wood chips/mulch, finely chipped that will heat up into compost for the garden areas next spring if not sooner for the fall endeavor. Some tree trimming company had “dumped” , I suppose, a huge pile in an area off a state highway. Sign reads: “No Dumping Allowed”, not “State Property” which would indicate no get. While the dumpster criminal tree trimming company may have violated the no dumping sign, I figure I’m doing the state a favor by removing the dumped mulch. What will happen eventually is the state will attempt to burn the pile. What a waste. And people wonder what the hell is wrong with “society”. One of those days was the recorded 110 heat index. I waited until about 5:30 each afternoon I rescued that mulch and noticed the index had dropped to 106 the hottest day of the three. Early morning would be better but those cooler hours are normally filled with tending the garden, watering etc. and doing maintenance. Oh, and one day last week the regulator/contact “points” went out on the water well so I had no choice but to get out under the sun at 2PM and get that water back pumping by replacing the regulator. Hotter than what should be legal , I had to make numerous rest stops under a big oak tree before getting the job done as I felt like I was going to pass out. That’s all part of the toughing up process however.

I wear a big brim hat, not a sombrero , bandana under the hat wrapped like a Harley rider’s durag , often a bandana around the neck. When all clothing is completely drenched in sweat, which does not take long, the moisture seems to help cool things down a bit especially when a breeze comes around. In all likelihood with brown leathery looking skin I could easily pass through the border checks going the opposite way no questions asked and especially if under a big sombrero.

I generally come in to change once I’m soaked down to my sock line. I can tell how hard I’ve worked each day by the number of shirts I go through.

Doing land clearing right now and road prep for some building plans on the ranch. Two days ago I got a crotch full of cactus needles when I hoisted a log by hand into a tractor bucket. The following day I had fire ants crawling up my back!!! All in blazing Texas heat!!!

To be honest, the more it sucks the more I love it. Pain is weakness leaving the body!!!

Glad I’m not the only one. I had some Mexican roofers here a couple of weeks back, working in the direct sun. As hard as they worked and as hot as it was, I noticed they did not sweat the way I do. After a an hour or so of consistent labor, I literally look like I’ve been submerged in water.

I have a 20″ window fan. Built a shroud around the window from 1″x4″ and stapled a cut open sandbag over the opening. Placed a piece of soaker hose on top which lets a small amount of water continually wet the cloth.

Fan sucks air through the wet cloth dropping the temperature. More important when I built it, it cleans the air. Takes the nasty smoke out of the air during fire season here.

‘Latent Heat’ = humidity. ’Sensible heat’ = air temp. Adding humidity not helping.

‘Enthalpy’ control, relates directly to ‘humidity’, if you have ‘outside exhaust/make-up air capabilities to meet the various ‘ventilation schedules’. Ever go into a bldg and the doors were hard to open? This bldg. has ‘capability’ but poor/non-existent control.

Your condensing unit (Outside) dirty/air flow impeded? Acid cleaners sprayed on the outside of the coil, RINSED OFF in a timely fashion, from the inside will restore air flow if plugged. Stinks. Small evergreens ‘leaves’ notorious, compressed air will dislodge easily, again, inside out. Felt bad seeing the earth worms rising to the surface in broad daylight writhing in agony, waste of bait. Should be discharging warm air. big copper pipe extremely cold but space still not cooling?? dirty filter(s) 1st obvious, Pre-filters if electrostatic. Fan blades, plugged ‘evaporator’ coil (Inside).

Low on charge? DEFINITE LEAK. magnitude only question. Not sure if your ’expansion device’ is cap tube, CCOT= ‘fixed capacity’. ’Superheat’ DOES apply. Anyone tells ya they can ‘feel’ it with their hand? Malarky. TXV=Thermostatic Expansion Valve. Variable capacity. Liquid line sub cooling a valuable measurable variable in that instance.

No use going into a LENGTHY DIATRIBE. Too many variables to discuss beyond the scope of this article. 😂

They are called Climate Control SYSTEMS for a reason.

OMG! over 30 yrs. since i had to take EPA refrigerant cert. test! Proctor said i couldn’t come in reeking like a skunk. Told him i was sorry. Didn’t bring enough for everybody. ‘Universal’ Soldier. The HVAC/R guys will giggle, at least. 20+ yrs. since changing focus. Today? It’s the same, only different. Pressures on the gauges.

Your best bet would be to find a ‘medium’ sized family owned business. The ‘Big Dogs’? i’ll put it this way. Had several, ultimately vastly entertaining meetings representing my employer at the time. Honeywell. Started with 4 suits. Not quite 30, Scared to death. Don’t want to go into ANOTHER LENGTHY DIATRIBE…Believe The LAST ONE they had 8.

If you’re ‘special’, the boss will call you when you were on a RARE scheduled day off. Told him i was drunk as a monkey, high as a kite, and naked. Was trying to do my part to establish racial harmony. Black stripper who started out as a ‘bet’ with my buddies. Ended up staying with me on a regular basis when in town/on a circuit. ‘Bout a yrs. worth. Quit a nursing job, better money. By far. Drove a brand new Cadillac, got some great presents…Until she came in a day early and caught me with my cleaning ‘lady’. Ended up with a Pittsburgh Steeler. Clearly, she was heartbroken.

“Someone can be there in 45 min. to pick you up. 2 guys onsite, waiting to do what you say. Enough time to get dressed?”

THEN, a few weeks later, have the temerity to ask who i was calling at 3:30 a.m. on my Startac™ flip phone…sheepishly. Along with…”can’t you learn to text, it’s free. I don’t really care but the higher ups were asking….”

That Thing was huge. ‘Course that was the start of days when future bragging rights would be accorded based on whom had the ‘smallest’. Phone.

‘Tell ’em to call her up and if she sounds hot get her name, musta lost it. Had walkie talkies with a Morse Code button on ‘em as a child. NOT interested in learning another variant.

KNOW i wasn’t calling a guy at that time. ALL those ‘conversations’ were up close. And personal.

We’ve had overabundance for so long a little less seems like a Biafra 2.0. And BIDEN..who cares? That’s a hologram you’re looking at… and a pretty dim one. Toughen up. It’s good for the soul.

Sink or swim. Can anyone explain for fact this shit would not be happening had King Cyrus “won” a second term. I mean, he rubbed elbows with Klaus Schwab and WEF. His daughter was in big time with WEF. In fact while in office taxpayers funded a $1M handout so daughter could work a worldwide agenda improving women entrepreneurs. Just saying. And all but the crony wealthy will feel this shit the most.

When is a good time to go Galt and stop paying the mortgage/other Bill’s. Foreclosure backlog might be years. A friend rode out 6 years in the house after stopping paying the mortgage.

“When is a good time to go Galt and stop paying the mortgage”

normally, a few months after the defaults pile up to serious levels. but now, never, because the note holders 1) have their act together, and 2) always have a ready buyer in blackrock. after 90 days the only delay you’ll see is how long it takes the sheriff to get around to you – but blackrock already has their company police ready to go, so there will be no delays.

I walked away from a mortgage in ’85 and it took them 18 months to foreclose. They never filed a judgment against me, so no long term consequences.

If one had been planning ahead, and assuming you don’t care to keep the house;

Take as much equity out (via home equity loans) of the over inflated house price, buy hard and hide-able assets, hide and protect all wealth, then default on everything.

But the planning has to be right and the timing executed exactly. Best if you have a trust or estate to route money through and a decent international banker. I know, the last bit sounds like an oxymoron.

Not a game for amateurs.

Thank You. Will be an interesting read i’m sure. Been awhile. Maybe ‘Equity’ has a new definition by now. Too.

If i can parse any good info to pass along to a few young’uns with nothing to loose… maybe just forward, some of ’em purty sharp.

Well, deliberate and planned default is an example…of the title of this article.

Maybe if society’s broad focus was on responsibility rather than screwing the other guy, we’d never be in this situation. But if the focus is get yours first, well…we see that in the ghetto as well as the corporate board rooms. Somehow, I do not think this ride will end anytime soon.

On the other hand, I fail to see the need for empathy when the lending institution is chartered by the government to allow ME to create the debt by the extension of credit that is launched at the moment the mortgage is signed. They get paid to be the magician’s assistant in the creation of debt, not steward funds that have been placed in their custody.

So, no…if a bank gets screwed royally, I don’t mind one little bit.

There seems to me a disturbing lack of panic on the Dem side about the coming “bloodbath election”. My guess is no election will be held. Of course, I may be wrong and they will hold a sham election just to pacify the American public into thinking they have done their civic duty, business as usual.
I don’t know what the red line they must cross for the people to act in our own best interests, government be damned, but it is fast approaching.
You can feel the vibe growing.

Incestual pedo POTUS low.

” Biden was doing the same thing to his daughter in the shower… we know that he showered with her in a way that she felt damaged her. If there’s anything that deserves an investigation, it is this. But of course, the FBI is not looking into it because Joe Biden controls the FBI, and said they’re trying to cover it up. And by the way, this is at least the second time that Joe Biden has used the FBI to hide drug abuse and allegations of sexual misconduct with minors within his own family. And both those stories come out this week.”

Here’s how stupid the electorate. And $1M was approved in the “budget” during Donald Trump’s first year for this. Check it out if you do not believe. To me it was one of those WTF moments.

Check the date , mate, Sept, ’19. I’m thinking Donald and Ivanka, locked in with WEF on that date. Yeah, support that asshole. Seriously, SMH

The Masonic monsters at the WEF are dropping it all. Now.
The financial system, food supply, health care, and now housing, cryptocurrency, equities, the USD, simply everything.

They are actively removing the ability of the slaves (us) to have a place to store value and are eliminating any avenue we currently have by destroying it.
(Well, except one)

It’s coming on like freight train.
It’s exceedingly difficult to sidestep it as the levers of control are all in their possession.
Pray for Russia. No kidding.
They’re the only visible opposing force on the planet right now.

Store food, protection, precious metals, life straws, and seeds.

I would recommend having no market exposure at all. No bonds, stocks, savings accounts, etc.
it’s all rigged and they’re knocking the legs out rapidly.

This is an existential threat to our very lives. If they are not stopped, we will be starved into submission and removed as a species save for the selected mindless automatons even now fully propagandized by these soulless demons.

Anything listed above come as a surprise?

I see the thread is still active. I’ve not read every comment.

All I can say right now regardless the subject, it’s still a hot 🥵 SOB here in Texas. Don’t believe the myriad of things Texas is about, everyone has an oil well in their back yard, everybody wears a ten gallon hat, more, what crap. If people do not like heat, like desert type heat , and I’ve no idea what it’s like in the Middle fucking East , heat wise, Texas may not be the best choice. One might become acclimated, maybe not. I’ve lived the heat almost 69 years. God bless.

It’s not easy to keep respecting or fearing a system run by pedophilic, pig, tyrants and their baby murdering badges. America will pop like a volcanoe soon. Too long people have ingnored or repressed their rage. Too long their have been no reckonings or severe consequences for the raping our nation and people. Nor the selling of it out to the four winds, profiting while indepting and enslaving us all.
