This is the kind of behavior you see after a few generations of constantly preaching white racism to blacks. They are 100% sure that since you are a white oppressor, they are justified in taking "reparations" any time they can.

And today's behavior is on full bellies. We ain't seen nothing yet.

I ran across this: Hyperinflation of the Weimar Republic in 1923 Germany on a gold-bug thread yesterday. One paragraph in particular jumped out at me:

By mid-1923 workers were being paid as often as three times a day. Their wives would meet them, take the money and rush to the shops to exchange it for goods. However, by this time, more and more often, shops were empty. Storekeepers could not obtain goods or could not do business fast enough to protect their cash receipts. Farmers refused to bring produce into the city in return for worthless paper. Food riots broke out. Parties of workers marched into the countryside to dig up vegetables and to loot the farms. Businesses started to close down and unemployment suddenly soared. The economy was collapsing.

Dig the bit about parties of "workers" "marching" out to the farm country to steal food. Wonder how that will work out here in the good o' US of A?

Based on my research and observations its going to get worse...and I am an optimist.
