FYI-
In 1787, Alexander Tytler of the University of Edinborough wrote that all
democracies go through eight stages, two hundred years being the average cycle
time. The stages are:
From bondage to spiritual faith;
From spiritual faith to great courage;
From courage to liberty;
From liberty to abundance;
From abundance to complacency;
From complacency to apathy;
From apathy to dependence;
From dependence back to bondage.
We’re facing a Perfect Storm. The above stages do not account for economic turmoil/collapse.
I’ve seen those stages before somewhere...probably on FR. :) Thank you for the reminder. Not sure what to do. Don’t think there’s any real way to prepare. Just have to live one day at a time and do a little bit of pretend head in the sand at times to cope.
