The Economic Collapse

Well, that was quite a shock.  We just got confirmation that inflation is starting to accelerate once again.  That is really bad news, because the cost of living has already been stressing people out all over the country.  In fact, one recent survey found that 86 percent of Americans are stressed out about grocery prices.  But it isn’t just the cost of food that has been going up.  We have been getting slammed by double-digit price increases in every direction, and that is having enormous consequences.  Our standard of living is eroding with each passing month, and as a result the middle class is steadily shrinking.

Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are about to make decisions that could radically alter the trajectory of human history.  When they meet in Alaska on Friday, the stakes will be incredibly high.  If they are able to agree to some sort of a deal, the world will rejoice.  But if the meeting goes badly, there will be immense pressure on western leaders to militarily intervene in Ukraine in order to prevent Russia from taking as much territory as it wants.  At the moment, Russian forces are moving forward quite rapidly.  If negotiations can stop them, western leaders will be thrilled.  But if talks fail, the conflict in Ukraine will dramatically escalate, and that will put us dangerously close to nuclear war.

If you recently graduated from college, good luck trying to find a decent job. What we are experiencing right now reminds me so much of the early 1990s. If you were a new college graduate in those days, it was extremely difficult to even get an interview for a good job. Sadly, we are now entering a very similar environment. There is enormous competition for any good job that is available, and mass layoffs are occurring all over the nation. In fact, through the first 7 months of this year the number of job cut announcements in the U.S. was 75 percent higher than it was during the first 7 months of 2024. I am not here to give people the Pollyanna version of what is going on. I am here to give people the truth. (Read More...)

The stage is being set for a dramatic showdown on the streets of the largest cities in the United States.  The mainstream media is freaking out about President Trump’s takeover of Washington D.C, and protests have already begun.  Needless to say, Washington D.C. is not friendly territory for Trump.  It has one of the highest concentrations of Democrats of any major city in the nation, and Kamala Harris won 90 percent of the vote in D.C. last November.  So this situation has the potential to get out of control very rapidly.

Why are social media platforms filled with videos of Americans complaining about grocery prices right now? Needless to say, those videos must be striking a chord, because some of them are receiving millions of views. Government bureaucrats are telling us that the cost of food is only going up a few percentage points per year, but we can all see that is a load of nonsense. A trip to the grocery store has become an enormous expense, and this is especially true if you have kids to feed. As I wrote about earlier this month, one survey found that in 25 percent of U.S. households at least one person is skipping meals so that there will be enough money to pay the bills. Sadly, we are being warned that the cost of groceries will go even higher in the months ahead. (Read More...)

If everything is going to be just fine, why are thousands of stores closing all over the country?  So far this year, the total amount of retail space that has been permanently closed has surpassed 120 million square feet.  We have never seen anything like this before.  Store closings spiked during the early days of the pandemic, but in 2025 stores are being permanently shuttered at an even faster pace.  In fact, during the first six months of this year 5,822 store closures were recorded… (Read More...)

We have never seen a year quite like this.  I wrote about “the year of the flood” on July 15th and July 27th, and now I am writing about it again.  If I haven’t convinced you by now that something really weird is going on, I don’t know what to tell you.  Record-breaking storms and record-breaking floods just keep hitting us again and again all over the world.  During this past week, it is Asia that has been really taking a beating.  Sometimes when I write articles about what is taking place on the other side of the world, a certain percentage of my readers tune out, but please don’t do that because what I have to share today is very important.

Why have there been so many large earthquakes in recent weeks?  This is something that people on social media are really buzzing about right now.  And I am certainly glad that they are buzzing about it, because what we have been witnessing is not even close to normal.  We really are in the early chapters of an extremely apocalyptic chapter in human history, and people need to hear the truth.
