The Final Act – How Will It End? What Can We Do?
Guest Post by Dennis Miller at Miller On The Money
In a recent interview with Chuck Butler, we discussed the US Financial Cycle using Ray Dalio’s chart in “The Changing World Order”.
Ray points to the downside of the empire:
- Large Debts
- Printing Money
- Internal Conflict
- Loss of Reserve Currency
- Weak Leadership
- Civil War/revolution
While our discussion focused on “Loss of Reserve Currency”, it’s part of a much bigger picture.
| “We are grateful to the Washington Post, the New York Times, Time Magazine and other great publications whose directors have attended our meetings and respected their promises of discretion for almost 40 years….
It would have been impossible for us to develop our plan for the world if we had been subjected to the lights of publicity during those years. But, the world is more sophisticated and prepared to march towards a world government. The super-national sovereignty of an intellectual elite and world bankers is surely preferable to the national auto-determination practiced in past centuries.” — David Rockefeller |
I disagree with point #17, “Poor Leadership.” I feel it began at step 8 and continues throughout the process.
“Poor Leadership” is the primary cause of today’s problems.
Politicians, blessed with a strong culture, economy and resources, always lust for more power and screw up. The “elites” feel they are smarter than the people, and know what’s best for us.
They implement policies to further THEIR agenda, enhance THEIR power; ignoring common sense. The adverse effects may take decades to unfold, but they inevitably happen.
Here are a few examples from my lifetime.
- After WWII, President Eisenhower warned about the influence of the “military complex” in Washington. How many trillions of dollars have been wasted, and lives been lost, fighting unnecessary wars and police actions around the world?
- When LBJ trumpeted “The Great Society” he was warned that it would incentivize out-of-wedlock birth and create a huge dependency class. Decades later the public learned LBJ’s true goal was to solidify political power over minorities. Mission accomplished!
- When Nixon removed the dollar from the gold standard in the early 70’s, Congress was freed from all spending restraints. Deficit spending has since reached the stratosphere.
How it will end is that the Former USA is going to “Suddenly” implode.
What can we do? About the implosion, nothing can stop it, it’s coming, and even sooner than most people would expect.
I wish it would hurry up. I’m tired of the suspense.
“I wish it would hurry up”
not me. take your time.
when it comes, you’ll all wish it hadn’t.
Yellen is calling a fiscal collapse a “soft landing,”.
And Congress is gearing up for another super omnibus bill to fund the wars in Ukraine and Israel, plus “solve” the southern border problem, which we all knows means processing the illegals through faster. The “fiscally conservative” GOP will go along with it as it funds Israel.
That should hasten the end.
“soft landing”
for the ones behind all this, it is. they’ll watch from on high.
Some would say it ends like Mad Max or maybe Red Dawn, but more likely it devolves into a Venezuela-like morass of inflation and need but with BLM riots and mass crime
It could be both, first the civil unrest, then Mad Max.
“Nixon removed the dollar from the gold standard in the early 70’s . . .”
. . . because every foreign bank holding dollars knew it was a fairy tale and drafted de Gaulle to call him on it.
The brakes didn’t go off because we went off the gold standard, we went off the gold standard because the brakes were off.
After WWII, President Eisenhower warned about the influence of the “military complex” in Washington. How many trillions of dollars have been wasted, and lives been lost, fighting unnecessary wars and police actions around the world?
And people said “You tell ’em Ike!”
and promptly voted in the next warmonger.
When LBJ trumpeted “The Great Society” he was warned that it would incentivize out-of-wedlock birth and create a huge dependency class. Decades later the public learned LBJ’s true goal was to solidify political power over minorities. Mission accomplished!
“I’ll have those niggers voting democrat for the next 200 years!”
And here we are.
Two useless wars we fund and are overrun with feral niggers.
And we are the brokest nation in the history of the world.
We simply must vote harder.
Eisenhower warned about it, after he didn’t do anything about it for 8 years.
I don’ t think the truck can haul anymore ammo in one trip, so I’m going to buy fish hooks, sinkers, cast nets, etc.
Don’t forget the water filter.
Fire. Must have fire.
