"Russia", the perennial boogeyman is now the reason our economy is floundering, gas prices higher, and supply chain issues exist. Of course, anyone with a pulse who has been paying attention for the last 2 years knows that covid restrictions, government stimulus checks and strategic shutdown of domestic oil production are the true culprits. We remember that the Fed bought trillions in stocks & bonds and owns a quarter of the real estate market, which has elevated stock and real estate prices into the stratosphere. By acknowledging this, the blame is placed on the shoulders of our elected leaders and non-elected bureaucrats who leveraged lock-downs to control humanity and boost their stock portfolios.
I have seen a dizzying amount of articles to push this new narrative. It won't be long before "fact checks" dismiss covid lock-downs and pipeline shutdowns as the reason for the stagflation. Any statement to the contrary is "misinformaiton". https://www.barrons.com/articles/stagflation-what-to-know-51646234216? siteid=yhoof2 "Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain!"
During the Covid-19 product roll-out, The World Economic Forum created panel discussions and white papers outlining a pandemic of a completely different nature; what they referred to as an impending cyber-attack with covid like characteristics. https://cyberpolygon.com/ This is what happens next. Covid-19 was created in a lab and leveraged by world governments to destroy civil rights and reset the economy. Cyber Polygon is the next step in this process. A full-scale cyber war, not created in a lab but war-gamed in Geneva with the goal of shutting down power and emptying bank accounts around the world. Equity means "you will own nothing and like it". You might as well treat your credit card like every day until the cyber attacks is Fat Tuesday. Go out and enjoy yourself because you won't have to pay it back once you are taken to the labor camp. Well, that is if you are told to join the line on the right. The other line doesn't go to the labor camp.
This link is no big deal but it does feature a speaker at the world economic forum admitting that the "elites" (his word) is "hacking human beings on a massive scale". https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6G3nWyoQ5CQ I'm sure they have noble intentions.
"the other line doesn't go to the labor camp" Hide uner the Taco Bell bags in the back seat and hope they dont find us. Solar panels, deep cycle batteries, and a deep appreciation for LED lighting - otherwise the world will be a very dark place. And what can we grow with this LED lighting - that's going to be the difference between slavery and autonomy.
Know who the transhumanists are. Their goal is to kill 90% of humanity and merge with machines. This guy, Yuval Noah Harari is the minion of Klaus Schwab. He's truly evil and he wants you dead (see video link below). Ask yourself why these people are able to shape our lives and society completely unopposed. World leaders including American CEOS and our POTUS bend the knee to people like Schwab and Harari. WHY? Digital currency coupled with AI and a social credit score? Mark-of-the-beast. Literally. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EIVTf-C6oQo
I can't stress enough how important this article is: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/what-great-reset-and-what-do- globalists-actually-want
If I change my profile picture to the Finnish flag, do the baddies go away? #5 How do you know about the taco bell bags in the back of my car? *looks around, twice* LED lights are great but if I have a good amount of tuna fish, rice and coffee, I can survive anything.
I put up a nice list of fun and interesting statistics on covidcult.org: https://councilof9.org/2022/04/21/2022-alarming-economic-statistics/
Why are tacos outpacing wraps? Is it because of the border situation? <evil grin>
#10 Bingo. The illegals are buying those tacos with your tax money. Free college, health care, housing, food, you name it. As a bonus, get paid by China to smuggle in enough fentanyl to murder everyone. It's a good thing I'm not in charge. I would make Trump look like a girl scout. From "MAGA" to "Party's over @ssholes!"
Trump's social media stock's 52 Week Range: 9.84 - 175.00 It (DWAC) lost 13% yesterday alone. #dumpsterfire
People like Elon Musk and Donald Trump have a lot in common. They share a carnival barker gene. They cultivate an exciting atmosphere of showmanship, spectacle and grift. Look back at Edison, Disney, PT Barnum, Henry Ford, Teddy Roosevelt, even Winston Churchill and find the same qualities. Under the chrome finish is rot. (All great people but something obviously sinister and rotten hidden under the surface.) At least with Ford, the rot revealed itself.
Definition of megalomania 1: a mania (see MANIA sense 2a) for great or grandiose performance an outburst of wildly extravagant commercial megalomania The Times Literary Supplement (London) 2: a delusional mental illness that is marked by feelings of personal omnipotence and grandeur Jim Morrison, Jim Jones, Hillary Clinton, Adolf Hitler and everyone on The View all share these traits.

Carnival barker gene And a healthy dose of psychopath
I think America is unofficially on the other side of peak-bubble. Market is progressively moving downward, housing sales are slowing, consumers are holding record debt, and Q1 numbers are weak as inflation creeps up higher than employee raises. Party is over.
I pay cash for records - never credit.
The consensus is that the stimmy checks created a buying appetite and now that the money is gone and people still refusing to go back to work - they are taking out arm re-fis on their homes and maxing out credit cards. Not going to be pretty. I've read that Biden is going to give in on the student loans. Imagine the hell that will unleash. It's not about the loan forgiveness. It's about the colleges that will jack up prices and start offering massages and other treats knowing they are going to be eventually paid for by tax payers. Oh and the relative value of a college degree in terms of pay and desirability will be ZERO.
Side note: The only time I ever bought a record with a credit card was on Record Store Day because the tab would be hundreds and I wanted the reward points. :) I stopped doing Record Store Day several years ago because it's mainly jacked up prices on purposefully manufactured collectibles. But the truth is I am like an gambler in a casino. I've picked up some serious gems over the years though. RSD is def worth checking out. Happens on Black Friday and usually around Easter.
I found a bunch of local record stores thanks to RSD. Now will I go to them? Maybe during lunch break. I will pace myself. A record is like a Big Mac. You don't want one - you really shouldnt get one - but once you have it in front of you then in the words of Nancy Kerrigan "Whyyyy"
#21 The sick thing to me is that for decades used records were about $3. Out of about 1,000 records in my collection, I would say at least 2/3 were purchased between the late 80's to early 90's for the under $5 price. That was most of the fun...finding rare gems and of course great collectibles for cheap in the wild. Now...$25 and up for a record? NO! Circa 2010-2015 I would occasionally buy a new record but I have been off that train since. I wonder if the prices will finally come down when the everything bubble pops sometime this year? Once in a great while I will buy a used record on ebay but usually if I get anything, it's a cassette. The last one I bought was "Ride the Lightning" and boy I tell you I was smitten AF. I need to score "Master of Puppets". I used to have that one...what did I do with it??? I'm convinced many tapes were swept up with the taco bell garbage in my car! (Seriously)
Don't tell anyone but I am also convinced that CDs are going to be sought after one day and they are sometimes pennies on the dollar. Scoop up your favorites when you see them, even if they are doubles!!!
One day when Canada gets over it's Covid tyranny, I need to go to Ontario thrift shops to look for cassettes. They had the best tapes. Black, great looking and with higher sound quality. Usually well taken care of too. They have strange protectionist laws in Canada for music. Sometimes I will type "Canada" after a cassette release on ebay. Their currency is in the toilet so there are some great deals too.
Toilet deals from Windsor should be a show like AMerican Pickers. There are some whackadoodle record shops in the Mojave near my cabin. Great prices but I have to sift through stuff to find them...like afghans and perfume bottles. One day I will make a day of it. I had the Metallica Master of Puppets tape. I was listening to it outside of AA meetings in Flint Michigan while my parental unit was in the YWCA yacking it up with the locals. Back then a DOD distortion pedal let alone a Marshall amp seemed like an impossible thing that only rich people could ever get their mitts on...unless you were a thief or rented it. I never understood how bands got their gear without already having somebody funding their dreams.
"Toilet deals from Windsor should be a show like AMerican Pickers." I had a hearty laugh from that one! The gear: I know from back in the day hanging out with the local guys in bands (you know some of them) that they would take the money from the gigs and buy new gear. Of course some of it was purchased from their day jobs too. It's probably a good and bad thing that we didn't have ebay back then. OMG. But you are right - so many things were a total mystery back then, before duckduckgo searches, amazon, etc. You could go into a local shop and get ripped off hardcore. Now you can buy cables, pedals, strings, you name it for very little money. I haven't looked but I would bet my next paycheck that there's a DIY scene for making your own guitar. I would also assume there's a Raspberry Pi hat that turns a Pi into a guitar pedal from hell. In fact...*typing into the search*... https://www.electrosmash.com/pedal-pi Bingo and I bet there are other projects just like it. In fact now you can have a custom circuit board printed, buy logos, you name it custom for very little. There was no conceivable way to do any of this stuff back when we were young. There's no excuse for young people today IMO.
The ghost of yellowcake uranium is a slam dunk, Brownie. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1tQjqeWJXHY Lies upon lies upon lies. Photoshopped photos, video game and movie footage being put out my the Ukrainian government and the American sock puppet media applying the "ghost of Kiev" hoax. Misinformation is okay when they do it. And it's official. They will never stop and the populace are zombies.
Ukraine Begins Rounding Up Dissidents Who Post MEMES Supporting Russia, Video gets REMOVED https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z79hU778X9E Alexa: Which kind of regimes round up and disappear thought criminals?

yes...YES! Wear your pajamas to the food bank for a free SUV gas fuelup. Earn a PS5 and a college debt writeoff by handing your ballot to purple- hair ballot harvesters. It's all in the Build Back Better plan! Not joking! 2400 pages of "are you kidding me?!" $1T $1T $1T Foot looooong Eat Fresh

"I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT I WAS SIGNING!" Credit cards maxed out, People with multiple Mortage Refinances and now the house is worth half... distractions, divisions, wars
#29 this is the secret sauce: Debt cycle: Money supply booms > Asset supply booms > Consumer price booms > Debts are paid off, money ceases to exist > Rug is pulled, asset & consumer prices plummet > System is destabilized > Start again with money supply bailout
There's a war in there somewhere and some terrorists to torture. That's like part of the last step I think.
The war could be on the American people. Lockdown 2.0 + starvation + camps for those who disobey "rules"
Could be? Is
It probably never occurred to most people that POTUS is not incompetent at all; that he's reading a script designed by entities that are deliberately destroying the economy and deliberately ending access to fuel and food. No diesel, no food, gasoline or product deliveries: https://www.zerohedge.com/commodities/diesel-be-rationed-east-coast- summer-warns-us-oil-billionaire Would they sink so low as to go after BABY FORMULA, deny that there's a shortage and then warn people not to make their own formula out of desperation? And then Bill Gates popping up out of nowhere with a new corporation asking for FDA approval of lab-created breast milk? It all plays out like a script from hollywood. Maybe hollywood writers DID write the script? Just let the babies starve, okay? Where is this all heading??? And will there be a breaking point at which anarchy and hysteria takes the wheel?
It should be lost on no one that the same group of people who literally invented euthanasia, which inspired the Nazi T4 euthanasia program also promote the mass murder of millions through abortion. Remember "Right to die?" Look up what's happening in Canada. Mentally ill can be assisted suicides. Didn't Nazi's do that too? Are baby formula shortages strategic? Are supplies being sent to Europe and prioritized for illegal immigrants? Why/how is a national emergency not being declared? Rest assured, even if you have traveled from store to store and could not find baby formula, all the right people say there's no shortage. Just blame Putin.
Supply chain, inflation, and recalls. When we say supply chain - that's code for gas hikes. Inflation - that's code for gas hikes. Recalls - that's code for "didn't ship right away due to gas hikes". They'll tell you it's from Cronobacter sakazakii bacteria but that bacteria naturally occurs - just dont let the dry food sit in a truck out on the lot like they did in Sturgis, Michigan where the 4 infants were enough for CDC to shutdown national distributions. Food processing sabotage for two months in a row and nobody blinks. Gas hikes and life goes on. No sovereign Southern border at all. Gues what is next - EIDL loan payments begin in June. The IRS and SBA are going to have a field day on small businesses across the country. Minimum wage is going up alongside interest rates. Bonds both short and long are narrowing. The housing market is going stale - over 1/3 of it is bank owned. Who will call in the debt upon debt to banks and government now that "the Covid is under control"?
Artificial Scarcity, Starvation and Government Contracts Abbott labs, the same company that makes rapid Covid tests also makes baby formula (Similac, Alimuntum, and Elecare) among other notable products, including Glucerna, Ensure, Pedialyte, Pediasure, and Zoneperfect. Abbott labs had the baby formula product recalls but there are many other brands by other manufacturers. There s no recall on Enfamill formulas, Gerber Good Start, Earth s Best Organic Dairy Infant Formula, Happy Baby Organics Infant Formula, Neocate, and others. So why the empty shelves? On March 25, 2022, Abbott won a $1 Billion contract with the United States government for rapid Covid 19 tests. That s an incredible amount of money. One could question whether Abbott had the incentive to play along with an government-mandated artificial shortage of baby formula. Given that other manufactures have no recalls but the shelves are still empty, one could ask if the Davos you will eat bugs folks integrated into global governments are purposefully taking a stab at starving babies by incentivizing artificial shortages.
The left s formula for problem resolution Problems for the left: Stage 1: Deny the problem Stage 2: Downplay the problem Stage 3: Claim to be working on the problem Stage 4: Blame the problem on the right (or current boogeyman) Stage 5: Demonize the right (or current boogeyman like Putin), using the problem as justification
