If society collapses, do you have the medical supplies you need? Check out “The Medic,” or as I like to call it, the Big Daddy of first aid kits.
The U.S. economy is on a collision course with economic disaster. Is it being done on purpose or is this just a symptom of having an idiocracy in charge of the economy? Is it perhaps a combination of both factors?
Given my several years living and working in our nation’s capital, having seen the Washington bureaucracy up close, I generally lean heavily on the idiocracy explanation for our American economic death spiral. But recent events have made me reassess. Let’s take a look at what’s going on under the control of the current regime:
According to the current Consumer Price Index, inflation is now growing at something close to 1% a month. According to CPI metrics used in the 1980s, inflation is rising at an even higher rate.
BREAKING: U.S. inflation was up 6.2% in October over a year ago. That’s the highest inflation in 31 years.
Inflation was up 0.9% in Oct. alone, a much higher increase than 0.4% in Sept. and 0.3% in August.
Prices are rising for food, energy, shelter, used cars and new cars.

Over the course of COVID Mania, world governments, especially including the United States, have printed countless trillions of dollars in fiat “stimulus” cash. This rabid money printing was pursued on the grounds of nonsensical Keynesian Magic Money Theory principles, which declare that you can save an economy by debasing the currency and flooding the system with cash.
The incredible debasement of the currency has allowed the rich to become even richer and defeat inflation through investments in Federal Reserve-inflated institutions, like the stock market. Yet for those who cannot afford to invest, they are being crushed under the weight of the debasement regime. If you haven’t increased your fiat-calculated wealth by 15-20% or more this year, you’ve probably lost wealth.
Sure, we can go with the idiocracy argument when we examine people like Janet Yellen, the lifelong academic and former fed chair turned Biden Admin Treasury Secretary, who is, by all accounts, a true believer in Keynesian economics. Yellen, a central planner to her core, believes that she alone can manage an economy better than free market forces.
There’s also continuing evidence surfacing that several entities within the Biden Administration are purposely increasing our cost of living, and fully aware of the consequences of their actions.

This is best observed in current U.S. energy policy. The White House has effectively put a blockade on new contracts for cheap and efficient natural energy production, leading to skyrocketing energy prices across the nation. Under the guise of “climate action” and “Build Back Better” statism, the government is doing its best to destroy a massive sector of the economy.
Don’t wait until food shortages get REALLY bad before stocking up. Get a three-month’s supply now while it’s still available.

Obama’s Energy Sec once said “we have to figure out how to boost the price of gasoline to the levels in Europe.”
Recently Biden’s Energy Sec laughed when asked what could be done to lower gas prices.
High prices aren’t a side effect of their policies – it’s the intended effect.

Holy shit. Take 20 minutes and listen to this podcast. People need to wake up to what’s going on rn. The government is using eminent domain to kick farmers off their land so they can build wind, solar and CO2 pipelines. Pure evil. Controlled demolition. https://t.co/kFD0csRR1T

Moreover, the Biden Admnistration has elevated ideological radicals to top positions in the administration.
Comptroller of the currency nominee Saule Omarova is an out of the closet marxist (she was educated at communist Moscow State University, and wrote her thesis on Karl Marx) who is waging a direct attack on American energy industries, and is publicly advocating for a governmental commitment to their future bankruptcy.

She is also firmly in the “you will own nothing and be happy” ideological camp, arguing that Americans should not have any sovereignty over their wealth.

The Federal Reserve has also massively contributed to the economic mess.
After all of this, I’m still not sure what to believe.
Remember, a government best controls its population and keeps itself legitimate through the maintenance of a healthy currency. If hyperinflation happens, this could certainly end up hurting the regime in charge and potentially lead to its downfall. If the dollar goes full Weimar, the government would greatly struggle to have the authority to maintain its power.
In the end, we’re probably dealing with a combination of deliberate implosion and a failure of central planning.
There are several competing power factions throughout the Biden Administration. Unfortunately, there are no signs of economic coherence anywhere to be found. There are no “responsible” actors in these meetings.
We don’t allow Google ads here. We won’t post foot fungus treatments or soft-porn ads like other conservative news outlets. We WILL support MyPillow because they love America. You can support them and me by using promo code “JDR” at checkout.
This is why I’m so bullish on Bitcoin, which relies on the free market. The dollar, however, is entrusted to idiots and radicals, such as AOC, Joe Biden, Janet Yellen, and The Fed.
In the end, the idiocracy and the ideologues are achieving the same economic goals through either their incompetence and/or purposeful destruction. Their motives are unclear, but they will end up achieving a negative result anyway.

We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today. It isn’t easy for obvious reasons; despite incredible growth over the last year we are still a very tiny fish in a huge media pond. But we’re fighting and we will continue to do so, Lord willing, for as long as we possibly can. The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our brand new GiveSendGo page. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!

When preparing for societal collapse, don’t forget the water!
Duh. They couldn’t be making worse decisions if they set their minds to it. Ol’ Occams razor suggests they are doing it on purpose.
Nailed it…
“Is the Biden-Harris Regime Purposely Destroying the American Economy?” The answer is quitw simple: YES.
Great
Of course the economic destruction is deliberate! How could it be otherwise? In fact, ALL the destruction we see are deliberate Cloward-Piven strategies, all designed to overwhelm our resources, cut down the US to make room for the Globalists’ world government, the New World Order. After all, you can’t have an international tyranny if there’s still a free country with armed citizens. We are Gulliver being taken down by hundreds of Lilliputians, a slow death by a thousand cuts.
Planned demolition. A carryover from Obama. Every Western nation has bought into the Great Reset. We need to act NOW
The answer is YES!!!
Treasonous. He/they need to be removed ASAP.
Could not have totally hosed the American economy and better if it were planned that way. Hmmmmmmmmmmm…..
Is our current diminishing fiscal well-being a result of the rank stupidity of the kakistocracy in power now or a calculated Cloward/Piven strategy?
It’s Obama (& his OFA). He knows all the communists and whom to tell Joe to nominate. Joke is just following orders.
The infanticidal, totalitarian, Marxist Scamdemocrats voted to impeach Trump twice on fabricated scams. The self interest, self serving, spineless, backstabbing, Trump hating GOP RINO SWAMP RAT eunuchs lack the nerve to impeach Beijing Biden before he totally destroys America.
Yes they are. It should be quite obvious as usurpers turned tyrants. They must be removed per our Declaration of Independence and it’s addendum the Constitution.
It our duty and sacred rights to HANG them for their treason.
This is not a Biden-Harris administration. This is an administration puppeteers by Barry the Kenyan and Gyorgy Schwartz.
You keep writing about issues that your readers should know inside out by now. Stop telling us why the left is winning and give us some ideas about how to defeat the enemies of this country.
And your one idea is bitcoin? Yep, the good ole US of A needs a currency that can go from $10,000 a unit to $500 per in a heartbeat. What a great idea. Keep it up and none of us will be able to afford a bitcoin no matter how low the price.
All your connected publications keep telling us why the country is doomed. And then you ask for donations. Why should anybody give money to convincing doomsayers who offer absolutely no hope of resisting the forces destroying our civilization? You might as well be working for the enemy.
And thanks for nothing.
It’s both. It’s purposeful and helped along greatly by the fact that there is not one single person in this administration who is qualified or capable of doing the job they’ve been given.
You have to ask if we believe they are on purposefully destroying the economy? It is pretty obvious by now don’t you think?
duh. communism.
America’s decline is being managed by Obama….that’s all you need to know.
He’s fundamentally transforming America as he had promised.
Are Americans the dumbest people in the world? They sure ask the dumbest questions.
