Note on Using Gold as Money, as in a Parallel Society

I was buying some household goods recently, which totaled appx $2100, almost the exact value of an ounce of gold. The man I bought the goods from was a good guy, a small businessman. When it got time to pay I thought about paying him an ounce of gold for the goods, as a way to do a little part in helping to build a parallel society. And I thought, “No way.” The bad money has chased out all the good money. The gold was something, it represented something – there is real value in a gold coin. Fiat is garbage, I would rather give him the paper garbage if he was willing to take it. Granted, it is the current garbage de jour but garbage nonetheless. I paid with a credit card and drove on home.

This Is Our Time to Strut Upon the Stage

You spend your life reading about the tumultuous times throughout history. The great wars…booms and busts…and you think, “Wow, what a scene! It must have been great to live then, to be a part of the action.”

There is nothing fascinating about the destruction of America and the American people, but it is fascinating to watch the process. How inept leaders always do the wrong thing at the right time to keep the cascade going. They have literally no love for the people, and cannot see the beauty that would be unleashed by unchaining them. They just can’t get their own interests out of the way.

Equally fascinating is watching the people fall for the same tricks…over and over again. They have no clue about what is going on. Some say its a race war, some back the democrats, some riot, some back the republicans. All have an opinion, almost all are wrong. As everything around them falls, they bicker over trivialities.

To live in this time as america falls is fascinating.

Let us write about it for the future people.
Let us act.
This is our time to strut upon the stage.

In the Markets, ‘Everything is Broken’

A Bob Dylan classic which fits well with the current economy and financial markets.

“Ain’t no use jiving
Ain’t no use joking
Everything is broken”

The cool part is the geniuses who are supposed to maintain functioning markets – the fed fools – are the ones who have created the problem.

A Country’s Oil Consumption = The Size of Their Economy

This is an interesting look at how a country’s oil consumption equates to the size of their economy. As Chris Martensen shows, the correlation is almost 1 to 1. The corollary is that as oil prices increase, consumption is reduced, which reduces the size of the economy. Further, because modern economies are highly over leveraged, any decline in economic output puts the entire system in danger of collapse.

This collapse will happen sooner or later. The cause of the collapse will be because the ignorant fed members (and other central bankers) inflated an artificial economy based on fake fiat printing. These fed members will go down as some of history’s greatest fools, and the cause of the wreckage that will be america.

How and Why You Must Become a Kingpin Shareholder

Hello, this is stockbroker john how can I help you.

Hi, I’d like to buy some stocks.

Ok, great.

Which would you recommend?

Well we have a good telecom.

And how much money is the company making now?

What do you mean?

Well, I’m assuming it is a functioning business that makes and sells a product at a profit.

You Will Finally Be Rich

America continues to spend money it doesn’t have – impoverishing current and future inhabitants – on things that it doesn’t need and are frankly, evil. Killing people in other countries, aborting babies, etc. In creating this fake ‘money’ it has created a grotesque caricature of her socialized markets. The endgame is

Why are My Bills Going Up?

I was talking with a friend recently and they mentioned how all the locals in the area are up in arms about the increase in their electric bills. She sent me this screenshot as an example. So I asked what everyone thought the problem was. She said some thought it had to do with a backroom deal between the governor, state senators and the power company. Others thought it was just greedy capitalists, or the ignorant president. Not one of them mentioned the fed.

I told her she should comment back, “I know exactly why your bills are going up:

Will You Cheerlead for the Coming War?

Gerald Celente really says it best, “When all else fails they take you to war.” Well, all else is failing. I see a steady news flow about China or Russia doing some such negative thing. The clamor has begun. Those in power see the change coming, america falling, and recognize that a substantial part of the population will get a bit, say, unruly. The people know something is wrong but who to blame? They cast their eyes around. In an effort to throw the public off balance and avert attention from their disastrous policies, the government people will say something and point, “It’s China! They have destroyed us! It is our full intention to make them pay! We must go to war now! Sign up for service Joe Doe! Do your duty to defend the Great Homeland from the menace! They have destroyed our economy, wrecked our living standards! Onward boys, leap now, into battle!”

And the people will bang the drums and toot the horns, pleasantly pleased with themselves at having identified the enemy. They rush headlong into the fray.

The Coming Great Depression

Can you feel the change in the air?

Something is changing. The world is entering into a great depression. Wars will be unleashed, and the lies will grow.
It is time to harden, not your hearts, but your will. The fat years fall away as the lean years come closer.

Turn away from the money gluttons and all frivolous pursuits. Time to focus on the 2 main things – faith and family. Build them up.

Americans have been chasing an illusion – that money more money will set them free – and when that illusion is gone, what will they do? The divorce rate is over 50% – they can’t rely on their family because they divorced their family. Few go to church. They have little actual tangible wealth – they have debt and trinkets from china. In fact, the money lusters have been telling them for years that debt is great. Putting yourself in debt in order to make money. So they can’t fall back on their real wealth.

What about skills? I don’t meet many people with actual, real world skills. Some can sell insurance, but most are paper pushers and retired hacks from the air force. They never did anything but push pointless papers and bow to their masters.
This is going to be interesting.

What is Going to Happen to Financial Markets – 2022

So much energy is wasted on financial market commentary. Everyone has a guess and opinion about what is going to happen, where money will move to, what the fed will do, how to front run it and profit.

But there is only one thing you need to know: the fed is going to lie to you, steal everything you have, and destroy your civilization until a new system is implemented.
