I didn't know where to put this but CHANGE in 2024 may be the place. I had so lost hope for us, especially this year. The insanity of the world because of the WEF. Election interference that was ignored even with videos of a woman here putting boxes of votes into drop boxes. The destruction of our country, not by just by covid but by Faucci and Biden. Horrible things going on in our legislative chambers that we could see but do nothing about, on your tube... Wellllll...We are fighting back and maybe winning! Trump, Elon Musk, Tucker Carlson, Marjorie Greene, Rand Paul...I will breathe again!
I have thought for a while that we are setting ourselves up for a dictator. I don't know who will win out, but historically times like these lead to the likes of Hitler, Mussolini, Caesar, Mao, etc. I just learned this week that my son, who has a degree in history and is very well-read on the subject, agrees with me. He brought the idea up independently in conversation. A country or nation gets so screwed up by corruption that the populace turn to a strong man (always has been a male).
Yeah, something’s coming. There’s too many seriously broken issues. I see a lot of talk on forums about people expecting for it to hit the fan within the next year or two. Gold (a good indicator of uncertainty) broke through the $2,000/oz. mark several days ago and is continuing a slow, steady climb, approaching its all time value set back in 2022.
Everything’s fine, nothing to see, move along… https://mises.org/wire/money-supply-continues-its-biggest-collapse-great-depression
I am taking a breather from fear of what is coming and moving on to mad. I got something from my power company called my home energy report. This is my second one. It tells me how much energy I am using EVERY PART OF THE DAY!!! Not per month! It supposedly compares mine to an energy efficient house and this report complimented us on 'great work' because we used a little less energy this month. I emailed the company rep saying, first of all my square footage is almost twice the comparison house. My house is so tight I had to get an air exchanger to fight condensation. I did not want the government nor any organization to follow my energy usage. They wrote back that they would remove my house from the program. But they didn't say they would not keep records of my usage. They are building solar farms on farmland to the objections of local folks. Solar does not work in Wisconsin. I had one of the first active solar homes here and it does not work enough to make it financially responsible and told them so. Lets throw money at anything green. Dollars are already worthless but the confidence of the sleeping people is still giving them pretend worth. We will have nothing and be happy.
We got "smart meters" installed a few years ago. I have to wonder if at some point electricity might be rationed by the energy companies or the government.
I am seeing warnings about deflation now that the Biden inflation has slowed. People don't have money to buy what they want, so there is less money chasing more stuff, most of it made in China, so their economy is feeling the pinch too as the economy there slows as well.
The fact that 40 congress are bowing out come next year, is also a sign of things to come. Some retire, some moving, some claim they want nothing to do with politics. Then again for some they have already over stayed their welcome.
