Maggie's Farm

We never fixed the problems that caused the 2008 recession. We instead put into place "expensive" temporary fixes. These very "fixes" have worsened our position by increasing the national debt, stopping a constitutional budgetary process in congress and semi-permanently enacting emergency fiscal polices to stem the crash. I mean, did you ever in your life expect to see 2% home loans for year after year and 0% interest rates on savings??? Experts warned against these decisions but politicians were more concerned with being reelected and the correct policies would have required a few years of tough times. So here we are: Interest rates can't go any lower, small businesses are going bankrupt at depression levels, unemployment is high. The government is subsidizing almost everything and everyone and using fake money to do it. Inflation is rearing it's ugly head, and make no mistake uncontrolled inflation may be our most serious fiscal problem that we face. Our president is at best an idiot and our vice president has only accomplished anything in life thanks to her gender and not her intelligence, at best she is a complete unknown and may in fact be a real life puppet controlled by god know who.

At this point there is probably no way to avoid an economic collapse, it's just a matter of time and the trigger event. In spite of this our government seems singularly focused on doing all the wrong things for political reasons and I doubt that there is anyone in the federal government today who even knows what the right things are. It's coming folks. Yes I know I am a nameless internet commenter who has zero creds and zero proof. Go to

and peruse their charts. You don't have to be a PHD in economics to see that something is going on that is not normal. Some of those charts show that it hasn't been normal since 2008 and others will show it hasn't been normal since 1976 and one or two will show a bad trend since 1963. But all show it getting worse and no one in a position of authority or in the MSM is talking about this. Why wouldn't they be talking about it? There is a reason that makes sense: It is going to collapse, you cannot sound the alarm because it would cause panic and create the collapse. So those in the know are simply trying to ride this down, make as much profit as they can and position themselves as best they can when it all hits the fan. For the other 300 + million of us it will all come as a surprise when our country collapses. In some ways it will be like the Texas power grid going down; no one is prepared, it will be a disaster when it happens but it will last a lot longer than a week or so.

There's a storm coming, get ready...
