MARTIAL LAW & ECONOMIC COLLAPSE 2014

AMERICA- THE PERFECT STORM: ECONOMIC COLLAPSE UNDERWAY (2014)






The original post has the right idea. However the reason the coming crisis will be unlike any other in 200 years (why 200 years?) is because the global economy didn't even exist in any form until the last 50 years. Seriously. We've been off the edge of the map for that entire time, pretending we know exactly where we are going and how to get there. That's 50 years of experimentation while the human population rose from a sustainable 2 billion to nearing 7 billion. Christ on a pencil -- whose bright idea was that anyway? And of course let us not forget, during those same 50 years we managed to get nearly the entire rest of the world addicted to a range of really expensive and potent neuro-toxic hallucinogens like crude oil, sports entertainment, automobiles, cheap credit, high fructose corn syrup, tobacco, rock music, middle class suburban living, Disneyland, and diabetes. 7 billion people or so, most of them Jones-ing for our version of high-grade post-industrial smack. And the rest just in the way of the resulting consumer steamroller. We suck. There is going to be so much pain, I can't even imagine it. Well actually yes I can, but I wish I couldn't.
