Some more "Inconvenient Truths"!!!
I'm going to lay a few things out for you here, and they may anger you - You may search your mind for reasons to dispute what I'm saying.... You may ignore what you know to be facts (Not #Fake News.) and you may even turn away in disgust (Run away from what upsets your comfortable World views.)
Deep inside your subconscious you know what the truth is.
The recent "Trade War" and associated Tariffs are just that... War.... Economic warfare designed to put pressure on 'Murika's foreign enemies (Enemies, being defined as anyone who doesn't kneel and pucker up for 'Murika's Oligarchy.)
There will soon be a "False Flag" incident (Whether it actually makes sense or not) regarding Iran. The US Gubernment is losing it's proxy war in Syria, and will turn it's scorn against Iran. What the American people don't understand is that the US has been waging war against Iran since 1983. Economic war with sanctions. The US recently "Pulled out" of the Nuclear deal with Iran (As if "Pulling out" ever prevents HIV, or pregnancy,) and the rest of the World views this as 'Murika simply reneging on a treaty that we had signed. (You can't ignore this! There's no justification for Drumpf to have reneged on this Treaty. The US Oligarchs are simply PO'd that Iran dumped the PetroDollar back in April, and Drumpf is doing what He's told... So much for "Draining the Swamp".)
When justification is conjured up to "Initiate limited airstrikes" against Iran (And it WILL be mark my words.... Western Oligarchs won't stand for their hoards of worthless US Dollars being threatened.) Iran being the Middle Eastern equivalent of David facing Goliath will play it's one trump card (No pun intended.) They will close the Strait of Hormuz!!! They can do this, there's no doubt. High ranking US Navy Admirals have admitted so. They can't do it for long, as the US navy moves in, but not before Lloyds of London or whatever insurance agency is holding the insurance policies on the World's Oil Tankers sends out a letter to it's Policy Holders. If you own a Multi Million Dollar Ship, would you send it into a war zone without an insurance policy? A QUARTER of the World's oil passes through those waters. All the flag waving in the World won't help you when you pull up to the gas pump.
Lets turn our attention back to "Tariffs" again....
They are also a tax on YOU! End of story. Who receives the money that gets paid in "Tariffs"? Washington!!! Who pays the money through higher prices on foreign goods you buy... YOU!!! This is a no brainer. Beyond that let's look at how the economy is very soon going to be affected. The President had a great (Yuuge) photo -op recently to announce his "Emergency aid to farmers" over China's retaliatory tariffs on Soybeans. Who will get the $12 Billion he promised? Big Agricultural Corporations, and mega farms!!!! How much of this will small family farmers get? Zero, zip, zilch!!!! (Well maybe a few crumbs to make the Public feel better.) Who pays the price? Family farms will begin dropping like flies! Together with the ongoing drought, and almost this Year's entire Corn crop failing (I live in Iowa, and see this first hand.) Farming in America is in BIG trouble!!! Good luck making those big John Deere payments this Fall. BTW; Who will pay for the "Emergency aid to Farmers", all $12 Billion of it??? YOU
Why was the President a "Traitor" as the media is calling him for giving in to Russia?
Because Putin put him in his place! Behind closed doors the mighty US President was awakened to facts. In a nutshell here's what he was told.... We have been working with our Chinese friends and others for decades to circumvent your tools of economic warfare. Sanctions, the denial of the SWIFT banking system, and currency manipulation are no longer a problem for us. We... Along with our Chinese Partners have been stockpiling Gold, while you have exhausted your gold manipulating the markets for your Wall Street Masters. Mother Russia will enjoy a budget surplus this year, while you will go another $800 Billion in debt. If you resort to Perpetrating one of your "False Flag" excuses to start a war with us we cannot beat you alone, but together with our Chinese partners, you will LOSE.... Unless you are willing to reduce the entire planet into a radioactive Moonscape, your options have run out. Your empire is collapsing. Our Chinese friends would collapse your currency by dumping their holdings of your debt on the markets. We have EMP devices which will destroy the electrical grid in your Country. 90% of your people would die. Our Iranian partners will (Again) cut off your oil. Your "Fracking" infrastructure is now depleted, and you will have no oil to wage war with. .... Checkmate Vladimir.
China's DF26 Hypersonic missile is designed to specifically destroy US Aircraft Carrier task forces.
The Dollar is toast!!!
You know this! Don't ignore it!!! It's backed by nothing, and the Federal Reserve's printed so many out of thin air since 2008 that it boggles the mind. Supply and demand will take over this paradigm sooner or later. You WILL be rushing to the store to spend your paycheck as soon as you get it. You will do this because it will lose half it's value within hours of your cashing the check!!! Gubernment will respond to this by outlawing cash. This will be so the Banksters can charge you a fee for the "Privilege" of having any money. In the mean time gubernment goons and Bureau Rats will seize complete control of your finances. People will flock to Bitcoin in droves. Just like Germans in the 1930's, You'll be burning paper Dollars to stay warm.
You DO NOT live in a free Country!
You cannot plant a garden in your front yard, your Kids can't have a lemonade stand or even sell sealed bottles of water from your front yard. Much is being said about "Permit Patty" lately. Her name is Alison Ettel, and she's the lady that called Police on an 8 year old girl selling bottled Water. There's a lot of scorn on the Internet over her actions, but lost in ALL of the discourse over this is one simple fact...... THE POLICE RESPONDED, AND SHUT THE LITTLE GIRL DOWN!!! If you hand out sandwiches to homeless people you will be locked in a cage! If you disconnect your home from the corporate and Government umbilical cords, going "Off Grid", they will lock you in a cage! If you collect water in a rain barrel - in may places you're going away in hand cuffs. Don't even THINK about giving a Restaurant customer a drinking straw in California. Want to smoke a plant that's killed no one..... Unless you're in Colorado, fugetaboutit. have a cigarette in Iowa? You'd better be only where they TELL you you can do it. Don't forget to put that seat belt on, or a Goon will stop harass and fine you. Half of every Dollar you earn is stolen from you in the form of taxes they extort from you AT GUN POINT!!! Police steal more money from Americans through so called "Rico" laws than ALL MUGGERS AND BURGLARS COMBINED!!! All the flag waving and speechifying by Politicians in the World won't change these facts! The "Troops" don't protect your freedom, because you aren't free!!! Police don't "Protect and serve" they steal and attack! All in a supposed effort to enforce whatever crooked Politicians write down on scraps of paper.
