The final stage of the disease is you will have nothing.
When the dollar loses it’s reserve status all hell will break loose.

THERE IS THAT, OF COURSE!
HST, EVERY RIGHT THINKING AMERICAN CITIZEN WHO LOVES AMERICA BEST GET OUT AND VOTE FOR DONALD J. TRUMP!
AND FOR “ONE AMERICA, MAGA” REPRESENTATIVES AND SENATORS!
It took them roughly 125 + years, but the “progressive” movement of the late 1890s has just about finished its “long march” through America.
God help us if We the People are not able to stop it in November!
Cloward and Piven writ large!
“In sum, American civilization has been turned upside down, and we have a rendezvous soon with the once unthinkable and unimaginable”.
That’s a good and accurate summary.
“ And that’s to acknowledge our True Savior.”
In a nation where the most important and decisive political issue is ensuring that it is legal for women to kill their own children?
I don’t think that kind of reflection is within the capability of this population. I think the situation that applied in Sodom & Gomorrah is far more applicable in this country.
It started when JFK was murdered. Then your points happened.
“Kissing Black Ass is an existential activity for Democrats”
That’s part of how they keep most of them on the Plantation.
I hope we will take in 50 million taiwanese when they get invaded. And then 100 million japanese after they are. And 40 million South Koreans after they are.

Precisely! The rot has been slowly happening since Lyndon Johnson. The avalanche began when Obama came onto the scene. Beck tried to tell us that but no one believed him. Thought he was a kook.....
