"From this discussion it is readily apparent that there is no longer enough capitol around to build any new nuclear power plants. Such is the legacy of Obamolech and his supporters."
As much as I hate to say it, my guess is that the limited capital available will be used to fund the military to allow the government to keep the people in check as the entire system collapses.
Math doesn't lie. We have created an unsustainable debt and it is going to destroy us. So we're left with two options; we can try to print so much money that we can inflate away the debt or we can default. Either way, we are facing the end of life as we've known it.
Personally I'd rather we man up, admit we can't keep up the charade and default. This would require us to remove ourselves from the world stage, concentrate on the space inside our borders and live within the limits established by the Constitution.
There is no reason we can't survive on our own. It won't be easy, at first. We'll have to learn to accept limits on consumption and become individually much more self sufficient. We'll have to learn to live locally. By this I mean we need to start looking to our neighbors for the goods we can't produce ourselves. As far as transportation goes, the railroads are still here and they can move goods quite efficiently, even using steam. The people will have to go back to walking, riding a bike or using horses for the most part. We will need some local means of exchange, some form of currency and barter, something that we produce ourselves. All currency should be created through labor, not debt as we've done for the last century.
We need to return to a more Jeffersonian model of existence, every man responsible for himself and his family. Government will be mostly at a local level, too, with a good deal more citizen control and interaction. Our lives will revolve around an area that is basically walkable. We won't have to concern ourselves with anything else.
Because that's been the problem; the explosion in central government control begun by Lincoln saw its logical conclusion when Teddy Roosevelt turned us into an Empire. We lost our internal and naturally local focus and started concentrating on the world. Our founders never intended this and in fact warned against it.
By the grace of God the American people will recognize the path we're on and choose to collapse in an orderly fashion. The problem is our political leadership needs to step up and take the lead. We are at one of those pivotal moments in history where a leader can come forward and take us to the promised land. Of course, just like the Exodus, we are going to have to suffer our forty years in the desert.
The sooner we embrace voluntary devolution of our economic system and a return to the American Republic of sovereign states as designed by the Founders the better off we'll be. Unfortunately, instead of Moses we seem to be led by mostly self serving opportunists with no capacity for truth or hardship. Our leaders are not speaking the truth to the people so most are not aware of what's coming and will not accept it if they are told. We've squandered the time we should have used to prepare the people and now it's too late. Greece is us. Everything that is happening in Europe is coming our way, sooner rather than later.
So buckle up and read your history. Go back and look at America in the period 1870-1890. Pay attention to how people lived. There was some hint of modern technology, such as electricity in cities, natural gas and telephones. None of this was widespread but it was available. Most long distance transportation of goods was accomplished through steam powered trains. Most people produced some or all of their own food and most of the daily chores were done by hand. Urban life was segregated clearly between those few with a lot of money and everyone else. Money could buy a significant level of comfort. If you worked in an industrial environment the work was hard and dangerous and didn't pay well. If you lived in a city the chances are that you rented. Homeownership among the common people was not widespread. A middle class existed but nowhere near what we see today.
Rural life was just as hard. Most jobs were done by hand so farms were small and supported the family at a subsistence level. If things went well a farmer might produce a tiny surplus to sell. Rural people lived apart from each other and what social life they had revolved around churches and civic organizations. Many would live their entire lives without traveling more than twenty miles from the place they were born.
If we can manage to retain the knowledge that we have acquired over the last hundred years or so we can quickly better our standard of living over our fore fathers. Just our understanding of germs and disease alone puts us miles ahead. No one understood the importance of cleaning their hands back then. Just that simple change could have added years to their lives and reduced the number of diseases that were suffered.
If we collapse our economy in an orderly fashion I believe that this is the life we are returning to. That is, if everything goes really, really well. With a chaotic collapse we stand a very good chance of slipping all the way back to the dark ages.
The people of America and the world need to wake up to what is coming. I think we're starting to but it may be happening too late.
Pray for guidance, understanding and strength. And pray especially for the safety of us all. There will be a lot of death and suffering in our near future and it will affect the good and the bad alike.
