The United States has become a Banana Republic. The lesson to be learned is that every Empire has its day and every Empire throughout history meets their day.<br /><br />It’s happened throughout history and the United States is no exemption. We will unfortunately will be faced with civil unrest and possibly a breakup of the Union sometime in the future. The problem with a Republic form of government is that eventually it fails due to corruption. That’s what we are seeing today and it is in your face. The Media plays its part by covering for the government and conditions the citizens to tell them what the government wants them to hear. It is almost as if we are living in the movie “The Truman Show”.<br /><br />The other problem that will incite civil unrest is the wealth gap and the media again is doing its part by glorifying “our rich billionaire friends” who have the lives of the average Americans that much poorer. This is how the French Revolution got started. It became an us vs them society.<br /><br />Gerald Celente the founder of the Trends Journal has the best line: “When people lose everything and have nothing else to lose, THEY LOSE IT”.Rod Briggshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01892085143658761123noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992740250270600844.post-54688029664562093312021-07-08T17:10:27.895-07:002021-07-08T17:10:27.895-07:00Just like our Federal Reserve has changed its infl...Just like our Federal Reserve has changed its inflation target to more than 2%, now the European Central Bank has done the same thing, allowing 2% "with overshoots". We all know that the 2% figure is bogus. The Plutocrats and Oligarchs who rule over us know that they must keep printing money to buy govt. bonds, otherwise interest rates would increase dramatically. Too bad for the average person who will have to live with prices going up 3-5% a year forever. They have dug a huge hole and dumped all of us in it with no easy way out.Dave2020https://www.blogger.com/profile/15839510248960245602noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2992740250270600844.post-55891525763400328192021-07-08T14:16:20.246-07:002021-07-08T14:16:20.246-07:00A reader of AdvancingTime just shared an E-mail wi... A reader of AdvancingTime just shared an E-mail with me from Rand Paul. He writes that, as many of us expected, it is the intent of the "lockdown Mafia" to take full advantage of the new "Delta variant" as a way to cling to power. This means seizing this threat as a way to send America back into a state of fear. <br />Paul goes on to say, "Standing idly by is how government grows, and liberty dies." He then added, "Reckless leaders take advantage of a crisis to con the American people into giving them more authority." Having witnessed the events that have occurred since the spring of 2020, it is hard to argue with his logic.

I did not fully understand the ramifications of that day. When I graduated in 2005 I decided not to go to college and enjoy working around my passion, automobiles, by working at automotive dealerships. I had a lot of fun and learned a lot about myself. Then 2008-2009 happened. The entire world took a hard left down a path that would lead us racing towards a cliff like Wyle Coyote. When 2020 happened we pressed the gas even harder thinking we were able to defy physics by making the jump over the Grand Canyon like Thelma and Louise. Just like those heroic feminist icons the world economy died not with a loud bang but a soft whimper. Now they try to get the old horse to move again like in Animal Farm but alas, this horse is DED. soapypiratehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18296524226846018146noreply@blogger.com
