“I Cannot Afford to Live”: Americans Get Emotional As The U.S. Economy Goes Off The Rails
New American Prophet ^ | April 12, 2024 | Michael Snyder

Posted on 04/12/2024 6:43:03 AM PDT by Rev M. Bresciani

As we approach what is likely to be the most chaotic presidential election in U.S. history, trouble signs are starting to erupt for the U.S. economy. In fact, CNN is actually admitting that “the long-predicted storm clouds in the economy may actually be forming”. I can’t remember the last time that I saw a CNN article with a headline like that. But at this point, it is becoming extremely difficult for the mainstream media to avoid the truth. Inflation is getting worse at the same time that many key sectors of our economy are slowing down. If you thought that the last couple of years were rough for the economy, just wait until you see what is coming next. Tremendous turmoil is on the horizon, and the American people are becoming increasingly emotional about our rapidly growing economic problems.

Stop complaining. We have diversity, equity, and inclusion. What more do you want? /s

Not only that. Thanks to offshoring all of our jobs, we as consumers are getting our products for less. /s /s

That would imply that all people have enough good sense to think at all. They don’t. They also believe, correctly so in many cases, they do not have the ability to support themselves and therefore must vote their maintenance from the treasury.

“The long predicted storm” is saying it isn’t Biden’s fault.

Considering all of this was caused by offshoring our jobs and tax base, it has been a storm that has been a long time in the making. Of course, Biden was one of those who supported MFN for China, but so did many Republicans and many Freepers, so both sides are to blame.

I just bought some stickers that feature Trump pointing and saying “I’ll fix that.”

I know one thing for sure, at my age and with the economy one thing is true. If some unfortunate S O B tries to steal my car, or break into my house and is outside my premises and getting away, I am shooting them dead regardless of promised jail time for these actions. I simply cannot afford to lose a car, or any money, and or bullion in my home.

When you get to a certain age, and time in life, your personal economics is riding a razors edge. When they are taking what is mine, they are taking my life. I will defend them with deadly force.

Why are cops allowed to shoot bank robbers fleeing the scene with their booty? Yet I am restrained the moment they leave my door?

If there is any other way to end this devaluation of our currency by xiden I'd like to hear it.

I’m almost to the point where I can’t afford the gas to drive to the grocery store to buy the groceries that I can’t afford. What’s an old man supposed to do?
