Hard to Believe That it's Only Been 16 Years
Since the Floor Fell Out From Under the American Working Class
It was 2008 when the Privileged Elite - BOTH Republicans and Democrats - decided to privilege the assets of the Ruling Class above everyone else.
If the details are fuzzy in your mind, here’s a link to refresh you on the details.
You might want to follow up reading this with a viewing of The Big Short. I don’t currently have a copy, but will probably order one relatively soon. I don’t trust The Privileged Elite to permit such a stellar example of unmasking their greed to be available to The Riff-Raff.
Just back, I took the time to buy a DVD - don’t trust streaming to be available - Amazon has shut off access to PURCHASES before.
Not that TPTB cannot use their clout with manufacturers to make a DVD unplayable (that’s why I ordered my copy of Wag the Dog in VHS format), but such actions could be countered by government action (should we ever Get the Leftists Out of Office - GLOO, for short).
What will happen over the next few years economically?
The Elite will manage to manipulate the news long enough to get THEIR money out of the markets.
The retired will get hosed, both by loss of investments, and by rampaging inflation.
The population most likely to take to the streets will be protected from financial disaster by the Federal government. EBT will keep pace with inflation, there WILL be bailouts, and ‘income security’ - i.e., Guaranteed Income - will become universal.
Same as above for seniors, who vote in numbers dwarfing other age groups.
Same as above for government employees, who will be paid off with generous COLA allowances. Well, except for the military, who will be incentivised to accelerate the rush to the exits.
Now, what is likely to happen in Hawaii over the next few months/years?
The Elite will work frantically to create the impression that EVERYTHING IS FINE. JUST FINE!
A few highlighted stories of escape from death, with cheery platitudes about Not Giving Up!
Media coverage only at a distance - blackened acres, no human carnage to be found.
An almost complete blackout on the available video coverage by residents, which tends to support the claim that these were ARSON caused fires.
AMAZINGLY, the celebrities and Economic Elite managed to escape harm from the blazes! Obviously, God is a fan of Oprah!, whose large acreage was miraculously spared (wonder if she put lamb’s blood on her door?).
The road blockages will NOT be investigated. No one will risk losing their jobs/pensions due to a bad decision.
The poor judgement of public officials will NOT be investigated.
The historic district of Maui will NOT be restored. It will be declared a complete loss, and the land will be given to developers (current owners will get SOME money, but not given the chance to keep their land). Then, after a brief pause, the building boom of luxury hotels and other facilities will commence.
The horror on Maui is being covered up - deliberately, it seems. The death toll is surely higher - much higher - than the official stats. Please take the time to read the comments - they are a rich source of information that is NOT being published in The Legacy Media.
The blame is being placed on a few individuals - sacrificial victims taking the hit for The Greater Good - and, to some extent, the local utility.
No mention, and no blame, for the corporate entity that owns the utility - Blackrock. Yes, THAT Blackrock, that is heavily into ESG and Woke politics.
Finally, a suggestion (OK, it’s more like a command!) from Brian Cates:
Cates said it in more words and better than I, but that’s the essence of his message. Read it ALL.
Then, go out there and spread the word.
Power to heavily concentrated.
