Why I don't fear default
Submitted by gjohnsit on Tue, 05/23/2023 - 11:50amFirst of all, I want to be clear that if the U.S. defaults it WILL be catastrophic.
I also don't want to deny that Congress could do something extremely stupid.
Now we know what was next
Submitted by gjohnsit on Tue, 05/23/2023 - 11:24amSo after Biden gave Ukraine those F-16's after Zelensky gave a pinky-swear that he wouldn't use them for bombing Russia, I asked what's next? Now we know. I's not like the Ukrainian military isn't being run out of the Pentagon.

I've been contemplating a future cashless society where the greenback is worthless and all transactions are made with a credit or debit card.
A world where your paycheck is direct deposited into your bank account and all bills will be sucked right out of your account.

Health is Wealth
“It is health that is real wealth and not pieces of gold and silver.”
― Mahatma Gandhi
TPTB are planning to use health concerns to grab ever more power, so we'll start by looking at the UN's pandemic treaty. Also on the table are foods and lifestyles that hurt and can improve our personal health. In both cases a profit driven "sick care" is the root of the problem.
In addition to human health, we'll also dive into the health of societies, nations, and the economy.
Uh oh. Time to bring them some "democracy"?

It looks like it is almost time to start exporting freedom and democracy.
