Anonymous Coward User ID: 22847021 United States 08/02/2020 09:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | America will go down in history as the country that committed suicide over a COMMON COLD. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 70148494 Trump is a failure. It is not a common cold, it is worse for many. The common cold last two weeks and usually you can function during that time. Covid is a different beast. As for blaming Trump, he did not shut down the states, the governors did. He wanted to keep things open. Based on the real death statistics, less deadly then the common cold. Based on the jinned up and lying statistics from the great John Hopkins(throwing up , the great bastion of far left politics) that CNN can't keep pointing out.....you'd think covid was a pandemic. Which for the life of me I don't understand, because covid has gone below the qualifications for being a pandemic....yet nobody wants to point that out???? |

You can make $700/month selling plasma (more if you have had Covid), unemployment, etc. Safety nets exist now. They didn’t 100 years ago. Most of the population lives in urban areas. Prior to 1940s, most lived in rural areas. No fast food dollar menus, no dollar stores. The dustbowl farmers had it really rough. Read The Worst Hard Time. It was also a PBS show if you don’t like books. If you don’t believe me, take a look at all of the fat people in your area. good reply, thanks! this thing is just getting kicked off. there will be plenty of starvation when the government turns off the cards, or the stores start getting raided by hungry mobs. they are destroying the farms and production of food, they had dairy farmers dumping milk, plowing under crops, aborting sows, putting 22s in the heads of herds. when the full horror of the situation is known by the common man in the street there will be death. nobody expected a run on toilet paper, like the silent run on gold now, and the run on guns, and the run on food storage supplies. what's coming now is going to make the great depression look like a damn picnic. Small and Medium size business will be rare and Big Corporations will make and break families and own them all like slaves.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 79217191 Canada 08/02/2020 09:46 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | One thing is for sure... Quoting: COVID19 Back in the depression of the 1920's, the country wasn't 26 trillion dollars in debt... Also, in the depression of the 20s, many could leave the cities and go back to living on the farm. Corporate Capitalism bankrupted all the family farms and bought them out, forcing people to work in the cities. The same thing happened in Mexico with NAFTA where American AG killed all the subsistence farmers and not long after, you had a rush of illegals coming to our country. Corporate Capitalism is to blame for a lot of our problems. They want to buy out and own everything for $$$$$$ and leave nothing for anyone to fall back on. So is the government. Read a novel called Dark Places by Gillian Flynn. She lays out how the government encouraged farmers to get loans for equipment and plant fence to fence. Them the Russia boycott hit and there was a glut of wheat. That was Carter's doing. |

All countries will feel the repercussions. Second, we are no longer able to do for ourselves. Back in the day most could put up veggies and repair or build what's needed. Third, we have no cohesive direction. Everybody is in it for themselves, not the country as a whole. Not being able to work together will bring this all down. We are fuk'd. Of course, the asteroid doom could hit us first before all of that but financial doom WILL occur. |

Quoting: Elsabiades.. 76201830 yup If we're lucky we've got till October until the shit REALLY hits the fan. If we're lucky. Make your final preps now people. Saturn turns direct on Sept 29. Pluto turns direct on October 5th, so that's when martial law will ramp up. At that time, Mars will be retrograde, so the people aren't going to react right away. Then Mars goes direct on November 14. That's when the violence really begins. It gets so bad by mid December that I thought that it would be WW3 at that time. It will certainly be very violent. This month, Mars is direct and will hit the sensitive spots of squaring to Jupiter, Saturn and Pluto. Since those planets are all in retrograde motion right now, we will see a prelude to what will manifest when they are all direct in late Nov./Dec. The first of those squares is this Mon/Tues. Mars will square Jupiter. As I said, since Jupiter is retrograde right now, we will only see a shadow of things to come. August 14 is when Mars will square Pluto. Mars square Pluto is always considered the most violent of transits. Mars is the warrior standing up to Pluto, the dictator. Pluto will be retrograde, so this will be a shadow event of things to come. Mars will square Pluto while they are both direct on December 23.This is not going to be a good Christmas. A day before this, Jupiter and Saturn conjunct as they both move into Aquarius. Aquarius is the ruler of electricity and computers, so we will be entering the digital currency age at that time. This fall looks crazy, and December looks horrible. Add to that all the prophesies of incoming asteroids, and I'd say the gig is up here. Time to think about eternity and where you plan to spend it. The US is over. The body is dead but the parasites have not realized it yet. I went to a party on a roof top in Brooklyn last night. The entire beautiful Manhattan skyline was the back drop to the sun set. It was beautiful, and I prayed in tongues for God to protect NY. Everyone was having a very good time. It was my daughter in law's birthday party. She's very black, I'm very white and my son whom she married is half Ecuadorian. Their crowd of friends was totally mixed. It was a fine example of the best of their millenial generation, enjoying music and food under a beautiful summer sky. It is so sad to watch the evil ones do harm to these children who really are growing up in a more open minded way than my generation ever did. They mean no harm to anyone, but they are being manipulated into a duality play where people are being told to think that these young ones are evil and the enemy. They are not the enemy. The enemy is the devil, and the very powerful wealthy folks who work for him. It's time we stop fighting each other and realize who the enemy really is. Times ahead will require it. Holly, your accuracy record is undeniable. I wish I could say otherwise. Will be heeding your warnings.

Now you have americans buying GARBAGE that appears to be a boot at walmart every 3 months and thinks that is NORMAL. a real, made in America boot like Whites, or Nicks, or Thorogood, or Danners, cost $250-$500 but they will last years or DECADES and can be resoled over and over and over and are actually more cost effective than the bottom feeding at walmart. but you can't convince these people that quality is worth paying for - they can't see the price they are paying shopping at these hideous places. |

People are living way beyond their means. CC debt, student loans and health care are major costs. In the 70's you could buy a house for what a car cost today.

You said nothing in your post. Go sip your tea. With truth and wisdom that you arrogantly refused to understand. And thank you for the cuppa.. flothy coffee. Trump sold out humanity when he agreed to be the fall guy. This happened in the 90s when 20 big banks bailed him out for no apparent reason, with nearly 1 billion dollars in loans which placed the trump enterprise in the control of the banks. He made good Scripted speeches that he read From a teleprompter. Even I believed him and spent a year and several hundred dollars backing him up. A week after the election, “lock her up” was replaced by “the Clintons are good people.” That statement alone was all that I needed to hear to realize Trump is Benedict Arnold, at the mercy of living like a king. Love of money is the root of all evil. Trump is a weak link, a shallow braggart who has left dead bodies in his path. |
