annie, git yer gun

Yup, it seems we're on the edge of something very economically disturbing. The big boys are very nervous about the coming months, and they have good reason. The carefully crafted economic system that's been morphing our futures for millennia is beginning to topple under its own weight.

Individual companies and corporations come and go, but business, i.e., the agricultural/industrial revolution, just like Old Man River, just keeps on goin', it don't know nothin', it just keeps on rollin along ... until now.

Wanna know what the economic future will look like? Just go to your local farmers' market and some flea markets, and you'll get an idea who the survivors of this great, economical upheaval will be. The people who can make a living providing needs and services without any government involvement, who can trade and barter on an individual scale. People capable of eking out a living without being hobbled by rules and regulations designed to siphon the lion's share of your profits to further enrich those who already own the world.

When currency becomes worthless, the money lenders will be the first to go, followed by everyone else who can't adapt to the new/old ways of survival.

We've devolved into a species that forgot how to take care of itself and had to invent a system that would grow and pre-package our food, build houses, cut hair, weave cloth, mass-produce shoes, and manufacture every toy imaginable to sell to people working for these industries because they forgot how to do it themselves. The survivors of this upcoming economic apocalypse will be those that relearn how to build a house, prepare a meal, and weave cloth without an army of carpenters, Chef Boyardee, or Martha Stewart.

My advice is to get together a stockpile of food with a long shelf life, a water purification system, a rifle for long range, a shotgun for home defense, a pistol for going to town for supplies, lots of ammo, and lots of orgonite for around the house.
And thank God the government didn't take your guns away.
