But you must take down this institution.And:The Fed is the number one, the number two, and the number three enemy of prosperity, capitalism, free markets, individual liberty, and the wealth of people in the world today.
Central banks have to be totally discredited and taken down.[1]
Recessions don’t happen because the Fed is tightening credit costs for Main Street. That’s the old days. That’s your grandfather’s economy and your grandfather’s Fed. But we’re now in the era of bubble finance. The Fed basically inflates the financial system until it collapses, and then it spills over into the mainstream economy through corporate C-suite panics.[2]And a big, official "ho hum" to that, good buddy.
But wait!! There’s more than monetary insanity!! There’s fiscal insanity!!
The short answer is that, objectively, we are already fiscally bankrupt. And by that, I mean the $22 trillion of debt we have today, that’s the rear-view mirror.This too is considered no big deal. Enormous debt is just as normal and unexceptional as moaning about manspreading and white patriarchy [AKA white perfidy] and swooning over the joys of mass immigration, diversity, abortion, and FGM.That’s what the first 44 presidents in American history have managed to accomplish—including the last two before Trump, who took it from about $4 trillion to $19 trillion.
But Donald Trump is the most reckless, irresponsible president we’ve had since Lyndon Johnson, in terms of fiscal policy.
This guns-and-butter deal for two years that he just signed with the Democrats and the Congress was an abomination. It added $1.7 trillion more to the debt over the next 10 years. It eliminated entirely these spending or sequester caps that we’ve had since 2011.[3]
The notions of wise stewardship and salus populi are absurd in the rotten America of our time.

I would say that five years ago very few of us knew what all this meant.
Now, many maybe even most of us have some idea.
But I think that's where it stops. We then think right>
there's not a dam thing I can do about it, I have no idea how to prepare my friends or even the ZNation for must eventuate.
Saw your post over at Crusader Rabbit Colonel. Looks like Boris will have to try to bluff a deal. Farage keeps working into a stronger and stronger position.
I watched some of the displays in the House of Commons, it was jaw-dropping. I kept on imagining I was shooting the speaker Bercow, my part in freeing the United Kingdom from the tyranny of their traitors.
It's a horror show regardless of what door you open. It's like one massive auto-immune disease.
