While there is some truth in that, like minded people banding together can be mutually life supporting and give rise to to some hope of rebuild when all the dust settles. Individual lone wolves, while meaning well can be goaded into fighting one another. Still even Noah faced the world all alone with nothing but God and his family! I think we do have better resources in like minded good men and women if we begin to coalesce now...but it can seem to many that each of us is all alone.
The Dems are trying to make everyone feel like everyone is all alone and only they can ‘rescue’ each of us...part of that “stockhom syndrome conditioning” they are trying to “whammy” all of us into!
Blood of the Lamb and Testimony of the Word!
Roger and out!
Yup....why should 21st century people think we have risen above such barbarity?? I feel not so much fear as I sense a deep certainty of great darkness of evil and judgment about to fall. I make no pronouncement that these are the “last of the LAST DAYs” Biblically speaking since other bad times have fallen upon nations; save only to point out that during past “dark ages” there was no nation of Independent Israel like there is now!
God has made his own act in planting Israel again in our historic but current timestream...as a reminder that he intends to keep his everlasting covenants. When and where will he invade, next??!!
15 years ago I asked my son (Finance degree path) what his professors were telling him about hyperinflation. Sadly, he said nothing. It was not covered in their textbooks, and not in any lecture. So I began self study.
Hyperinflation is usually characterized by the rate of inflation exceeding 50%. It was thought to be the cause of World War II. The Weimar Republic (Germany) was in this high inflation. The thought is that Hitler started the war to get away from inflation.
Venezuela and Russia are more recent examples. In Venezuela the prices doubled every month. It is similar in Russia.
So having examined it, I began looking at the “safest” locations for assets. Just holding destroys the value. The consensus was that there are three desired sectors for assets. In no particular order, they are real estate (especially agricultural), energy, and precious metals. I looked at my portfolio at the time and discovered most was in rental real estate. I quickly diversified and put 1/2 in energy (drilling oil and gas wells). I still haven’t ventured into gold/silver/nickel/platinum/copper) but they are not far away.
We all should examine where our individual assets are.
As for employment, the safest is a government job (state or federal) or business which will accept barters in addition to cash.
I told my son that the price of ammo will be worth much more than what it can be purchased at today. In a sense, rounds of ammo are a precious metal.
Just my thoughts on the passing scene.
