Interesting point. While this is not a fact, I believe we may have already seen our last presidential election.
That’s interesting but.........the math? 1947 to 1967 is only 20 years? According to what I’ve read, the last Christian Jubilee year was 2000 and the next is to be 2025.
Since O's re-election, I've had the gut feeling that we would not make it to 2016.
Not just the current economics and the Biblical precedence - but a type of "discernment" feel (Holy Spirit?).
I know Who I belong to, and I know that the pain will only be for a "moment", but I still grieve for my Country (remembering Jesus grieving over the soon-to-come fate of Jerusalem in Luke).
He’s describing sudden, visible acts of tyranny and lawlessness. He’s forgetting about quiet little confiscations already on the books — Obamacare includes a new specific “Medicare” tax on the sale of your house if your profit is above a certain amount, for example. It hasn’t gotten a lot of press because it doesn’t affect a lot of people.
But consider what happens in the inevitable years of inflation or hyperinflation: that tax will quietly affect more and more people, as it’s cast from the same mold of the Alternative Minimum Tax.
No doubt in the next multi-thousand-page “law” we will find similar little gems, such as a new specific tax on stock sales, etc.
This is the real game, not the game described of sudden, visible changes that affect everybody all at once.
The reality is that the decline will be slow and steady over possibly decades, with the end result being what will feel like an economic and societal collapse, Gradually, crime will rise, apathy will reach an all time high, and you will see a true Atlas Shrugged type scenario. By that time, however, most of us will be long gone and our children will be dealing with it. I'm not saying that I'm not interested in trying to prevent it, but the odds are stacked against us. Two political parties that only care about themselves, a lack of critical thinking by the easily distracted citizenry, the Fed who can print money at will, etc., will just ride the wave of collapse for as long as they can.
Seeds. Real seeds.
Wherever you can buy them, scoop them up. That will be currency.
I'm convinced that nobama, through his NSA, has gotten the goods on all of the major Congressional players, Republicans and Democrats alike.
Until these folks have the balls to stand up and say, "I don't care, we're gonna fix this anyway," little will be accomplished.
We will need to form a group to monitor his whereabouts and make certain he cannot escape his due reward. That includes his “helpers”.

I logged on JUST to give YOU an “attaboy”...couldn’t agree more.
(congresscritters ARE complicit.)

I don’t want, nor need, a pro-XYZ gov’t. The current bloated gov’t IS pro-biz: those biz that will donate $$$, kick-backs and quid-pro-qua.
A1S8, protecting our Freedom and Rights. The rest, I’ll vote on with my feet and $$ through the States.
Does any of this sound familiar?
How to create a socialist state by Saul Alinsky
( Who, by the way, was Obama’s political guru and mentor in his formative political years in Chicago. )
Saul David Alinsky (January 30, 1909 - June 12, 1972) was an American community organizer and writer. He is generally considered to be the founder of modern community organizing. He is often noted for his book Rules for Radicals.
There are 8 levels of control that must be obtained before you are able to create a socialist state.
The first is the most important.
1) Healthcare: Control healthcare and you control the people.
2) Poverty: Increase the Poverty level as high as possible, poor people are easier to control and will not fight back if you are providing everything for them to live.
3) Debt: Increase the debt to an unsustainable level. That way you are able to increase taxes, and this will produce more poverty.
4) Gun Control: Remove the ability to defend themselves from the Government. That way you are able to create a police state.
5) Welfare: Take control of every aspect of their lives (Food, Housing, and Income).
6) Education: Take control of what people read and listen to take control of what children learn in school.
7) Religion: Remove the belief in the God from the Government and schools.
8) Class Warfare: Divide the people into the wealthy and the poor. This will cause more discontent and it will be easier to take (Tax) the wealthy with the support of the poor.
“We are in an economic crash.”
Absolutely, especially to those people who have lost their jobs and homes (and may not have either again).
As far as the confiscation of wealth, it doesn’t have to be seizure of bank accounts; it can be done with much less fuss by simply devaluing the currency (which is already being done via the unreported inflation).
“No matter what anyone tells you precious metals always have value; people traded with other prisoners with silver and gold for food in the concentration camps.”
Their real value is they know no borders or governments; they have value around the world.
oops. Typo on my part. Thank you for catching. Meant to read 1917. One source states year 2000 (I dare not say the source at the risk of getting flamed), but the source I trust states 2017. The Old Testament states 50 years - so even 2025 would be incorrect. 2050?
Bear in mind that the Hebrew year differs from the “Christian” year. Hebrew years are lunar and so every 19 years or so they have to tweak their calendar to make stuff work out.
...then you can throw the ‘blood moons’ into the mix...
