Moncton is also one of the leading voices exposing the MM global warming hoax....
I think we need a bigger printing press.
I think we are reaching a saturation point. I do not think it’s irreversible.
You get in there, clean up welfare, slice a number of departments, stop agencies like the EPA from destroying this nation, and things can be turned around.
Paying off half a trillion dollars on the national debt each year would help relieve the pressure in short order, and that’s just from welfare alone.
Start closing departments and spark our economy increasing tax receipts, this can be done.
While I appreciate this issue being brought up, I’m not convinced this has to be fatal at this point. Even the writer seems to think in terms of a slow decline.
We could get healthy in short order with the right guy in there.
Welfare
Closing Government Departments and Agencies
Putting people back to work / increased tax receipts
We could easily see a trillion dollar flip here.
Over twenty years you pay off the national debt.
Folks, with the right team, this is an easy fix.
The question is, do we have the resolve to put the right team in?
Liberals self-righteously wrap themselves in the mantle of public spirit. They ardently promote policies promising to deliver the poor and oppressed from their latest misery policies which can only find solution in the halls of government. But no matter what issue one examines, over the last fifty plus years, the liberal prescription has almost always been a failure.
Why is this so? Why does virtually every liberal scheme result in ever-increasing public spending while conditions seem to get continually worse? There are a number of reasons:
In short, all develop a vested interest in the programs survival. But if the result is always more and more government, of government, by government, and for government, with no solution in sight, then why do liberals always see government as the solution rather than the problem?
Similarly, liberals use government to promote legislation that imposes mandates on the private sector to provide further benefits for selected groups. But the results are even more disastrous. For example, weighing the laws or stacking the courts to favor unions may provide short term security or higher pay for unionized labor, but has ultimately resulted in the collapse of entire domestic industries.
Another example is health care. The Dems are always trying to impose backdoor socialized medicine with incremental legislation. Why do you suppose American healthcare is in such crisis? Answer: the government has already become too deeply involved. For example, many hospitals are closing their doors because they are overwhelmed with the burden of caring for indigent patients, illegal immigrants and vagrants who must, by law, be admitted like everyone else, despite the fact that they cannot pay for services. Read about it here Destroying Our Health Care. The net result is reduced availability of care for everyone, exactly the opposite of what liberals claim to want.
To further complicate things, liberal jurists and lawyers have created new theories of liability that utilize the legal system as a means to further redistribute income. This too, has resulted in higher costs and prices in affected industries, higher insurance costs, or in some cases, complete elimination of products or services.
Liberals endless pursuit of rights for different groups also does little but create increasing divisions in our society. Liberal policy pits old against young, men against women, ethnic and racial groups against one another, even American citizens against illegal aliens, all in the name of equality. The only result is anger, tension and equal misery for all.
How does any of this improve our lot?
Finally, when companies relocate overseas to avoid the high cost of unionized labor and heavy domestic regulation, liberals sarcastically excoriate them for outsourcing America. Yet, when it comes to certain domestic industries, liberals in Congress suddenly become free marketers and choose to buy from overseas contractors rather than domestic suppliers. This happened most recently with a huge military contract being outrageously awarded to the heavily subsidized European consortium, AIRBUS, over Americas own Boeing. Since liberals claim to be so determined to save the American worker, what gives?
You have to take a step further back and ask some fundamental questions. Why is the liberal public policy record one of such unmitigated disaster? I mean, even the worst batter hits one occasionally. No one bats zero. No one that is, except liberals.
Prior to the Republican takeover in Congress in 1994, Democrats had over fifty years of virtually unbroken power in Congress with substantial majorities most of the time. With all the time and money in the world trillions spent they couldnt fix a single thing, not one. Todays liberal has the same complaints, and the same old tired solutions. Can a group of smart people, studying issue after issue for years on end, with virtually unlimited resources at their command, not come up with a single policy that works? Why are they chronically incapable?
Why?
When things go bad all the time, despite the best efforts of all involved, I suggest to you something else is at work something deeper, more malevolent.
I submit to you that it is not a mistake, the failure is deliberate!
There is a method to the madness, and the method even has a name: the Cloward-Piven Strategy. It was first elucidated in the 1960s by a pair of radical leftist Columbia University professors, Richard Andrew Cloward and Frances Fox Piven:
The strategy of forcing political change through orchestrated crisis . the Cloward-Piven Strategy seeks to hasten the fall of capitalism by overloading the government bureaucracy with a flood of impossible demands, thus pushing society into crisis and economic collapse.
[Part II of this article will explore those organizations created to implement the Cloward-Piven strategy and their ties to the presidential candidacy of Barack Obama.]

Well, that was bleak. Monckton is no chicken little and it is very sobering to hear our peril put so succinctly. Even if you are wise and turn your paper money into tangible assets how can you ever stop governments from stealing everything you have once the crash hits.
Russia and China are now dumping U.S. Treasuries on the market by the sackful. They know America is going down, and they are getting out in good time.People have been saying for years that this is the harbinger of the collapse of the US economy. I really have no hope that it can be avoided. Americans brought this on themselves by electing the satanic beast known as obama.

I think the markets will hold just long enough for the Republicans to get their man in office and then the damn will break. It will ALL be the Republicans fault of course. AND it will also be followed by some attack or event that is even more devastating.
That is my prediction and I will not back down from it.
It can be reversed. Anything done so far can be undone.
Bush, Christie, and Rubio lack the guts or the patriotism to do it, but a real American like Cruz or Walker could completely reverse the damage. A conservative could completely repeal Obamacare. A conservative could completely repeal almost every federal firearms law.
A conservative could cut real spending by 5% or 10% a year until we get back to a reasonable budget. A real conservative could nominate strict constructionists to the expected 4 Supreme Court openings coming in the next eight years.
I'm prepared if we get stuck with a big government liberal (whether a RINO or Hillary), but I am not ready to give up. Yet.
