US of V 2 of 3


US OF V 2

In the US, we have always had an issue of too many resources with not enough population to exploit them ( until fairly recently when that flip-flopped ).  Immigration is no more an issue now than it was a hundred and twenty years ago or two hundred and twenty years ago.  It has far more negative effects now that our resources are running down, but culturally it has always been the same.  The rich import against the interests of those here to gain profit.  Nothing to see here, move along.

*

One problem with this is that machines/robots/efficiency increases were always profitable ( in the never ending quest to negate the higher prices of labor due to worker shortages in relation to energy and other resources ).  Never do anything by hand a machine can do, that has almost always been the motto.  So, as a pertinent example, rather than having a Constable On Patrol on every block, getting to know the people and as such being more effective in keeping the peace, you replaced many of them with a single LEO in a patrol car ( a LEO just uniformly enforces the law regardless of the situation, negating the need to know the people and their circumstances ).

*

Not knowing or caring about the neighbors, the human interactions that are labor heavy no longer needed, you have “robotized” the job to a very large degree ( which is why so much paperwork is needed.  A written record to counteract charges of misconduct which are natural with ignorance applied to peacekeeping ).  The same is true with the military.  Every time you apply more petroleum and more machines ( to include computers ) to replace bodies, you are creating a robot force that works nowhere close to the humans that used to do the job. 

*

This greed and laziness on the part of the rich worked well and good for grandpa, but the current McScrooge in charge is going to get a surprise wake up call one day.  There are, simply put, not enough bodies in uniform on the streets.  And those that are there are over educated and under experienced ( as far as human interaction and mediation-they are great at firing masses of bullets at anyone threatening their Ah-Thor-I-Ty ).  Lone patrolman cruising huge areas beg for ambushes and assassinations.  Placing far more infantry into mechanized strategic units places you at the mercy of the oil supply.

*

Which can easily be interrupted.  And since far less infantry are needed, what with all their wonder high capacity weapons carried by mechanized conveyances and super wonderful satellite communications, which are easily disruptable ( at least on a nation state level ), and far less military personnel in general due to more money diverted to worthless but profitable machines so that there is less of a pool of potential infantrymen to place into the breech, you have the same issue militarily as you do with LEO’s.  Far less bodies, even if better trained.

*

Now, does this ring a bell at all?  Highly specialized, very costly, low in number knights.  Verses masses of peasants with crossbows ( long distance archers were as valuable and highly trained as the knights, and both archers and crossbowmen requiring a vast and costly manufacture infrastructure for projectiles comparable to ammunition today, requiring a more centralized government ).  Or, how about the marvelously trained and equipped Germans verses the cannon fodder of Russia or America?  How about when very expensive Mercenary crossbowman or Swiss Pikemen made gunpowder weapons economically viable?  The point being, an elite unit is usually overcome by masses of the ill trained.

*

The US putting all its eggs in the basket of robots protecting us is just inviting an attack by peasants.  Look at Korea.  We still had some of our cannon fodder left over from fighting the Nazi’s, and a whole other order of ill trained and ill equipped much more massive force almost overwhelmed us.  Now we have Mandarins in law enforcement and in the military officer corps ( supervising a very limited force of economic conscripts ) who rely extensively on high tech robots to accomplish their tasks.

*

This situation just BEGS for a counterforce to defeat it.  My best guess?  The Negro Occupation Troops ( they started out with a centralized unit-Black Panthers-and evolved to guerrilla war when that failed ), rebel guerrilla forces, Jihad sappers, neoliberal youth brigades and foreign intelligence officers will all converge to take advantage of this idiocy.  So, hello!, attention LEO’s and soldiers.  You are about to be Red Forces screwed.  You simply, oh so quite simply, do not have the numbers.  And this can happen at any time.  Not JUST when the food deliveries falter.  The forces in place that assure future food shortages are the only thing necessary to start this Crap Show. 

*

Not that anyone out there understands this dynamic.  Certainly not those First To Fight.  They only understand weakness and offensive actions.  As soon as weakness is detected, the attack begins.  How can it be any different, when the guerrillas in our ranks have been involved in asymmetrical warfare for fifty years?  Black Ghetto riots are merely equivalent to the VC converging underground in anticipation for an attack.  That was the organization and training phases of the enemy getting ready. 

*

Far too many Whites are too busy congratulating themselves on their correct skin pigment and underestimating the enemy because of that hubris.  The barbarians have been INSIDE the gate for some time.  They only await the first cracks in the imperial power façade.  And given how vulnerable we are through imports and trade and economics, it shouldn’t take long for that to occur.  It could be something as stupid as the stock market tanking as one counter risk party defaults in the derivatives game ( but you can trust Bitcoin! ).

*

And once the barbarians attack, the other weakened pillars start to crumble.  We’ll cover those tomorrow.

US of V 1 of 3


US OF V
*
note: this is just in rumor stage ( reported by MSM, so beware ), but if the tariff on solar panels becomes fact, you'll see a huge increase in the price.  Should you consider buying solar panels now, right this second?  http://amzn.to/2E3qxWG
*
I thought we had discussed this to the point the dull thuds upon the side of the diseased corpse of the horse were becoming unbecoming, but then some damn fools down in Venezuela went killing a cow with rocks and the comments started again.  I mean, forget why you even saw a video of this.  Doesn’t that seem odd?  As if it were staged like all those People Of Wal-Mart photos.  Perhaps it was a warning to some rich bitch.  Hey, Heffe, give our village some food or we’ll just do it ourselves.

*

Venezuela is NOT collapsing because they are socialist.  How can this not be self evident?  Russia wasn’t even socialist-they were WORSE, and they didn’t even collapse to the point there was no food.  The world doesn’t start to run out of useable energy ( the net energy declines ) and everything is oh so hunky dorey one minute and the next it suddenly takes a big squishy dump.  No, one by one nations fall by the wayside ( usually helped by other less weakened countries, picking at the corpse ).  It is Peak Oil Triage.

*

Many, many countries are already there.  Haiti ( Trumps fav CrapHole country-true dat, home slice.  You might be a greedy buffoon, but I like your show! ).  A lot of dry Africa.  A lot of wet Africa.  Saudi Arabia’s neighbors that have the oil they need ( Saudi Arabia is far past Peak, pumping so far below historical norms, it ain’t even funny ).  Pakistan is on the edge after the flooding damaged so much farmland.  Big chunks of India.  New Orleans, Detroit, Newark, Chicago.  Being triaged doesn’t mean there are running gun battles and people dying in the street-you know, like in Baltimore, Atlanta and Dearborn.  Well, it does mean that.

*

But you can still have a nominal government and what passes for near normal, while also having a slow collapse.  No country is surrounded by tanks and denied supplies, like this is “Escape From New York” ( a terrible film so good because of the atmosphere-the 70’s did Apocalypse so damn well because it was The End.  Now we just Extend And Pretend, even the Preppers all about Shiny Toys instead of hard reality.  Oh, I’m a friggin snowflake, me no like icky reality!  Grow a pair! ).  Everyone is just unable to import as much as they need.

*

Some places more so than others.  It is just business to the bankers.  Oh, Iraq, no money?  Sorry, No Food For You!  What, Egypt, you need more oil?  Got cash?  No?  Less Food For You!  In Detroit, you still get to eat well.  That is, if you can make it to the corner store without getting mugged and stabbed by your Homey’s your town doesn’t have the money to pay the police to arrest.  So, sorry!  Try again later, perhaps you can still pass Go.  As the energy supply ( in net value ) contracts, economies contract and the supplies are routed to select areas only.  Those that can pay. 

*

What I have been vainly attempting to explain is that it isn’t about governance at all.  It is about resources.  We only seem to “have enough” because we are not one of the areas that is being triaged.  But our time will come.  Already many parts of our own country are being triaged.  Look at the infrastructure being abandoned.  Sodden piles of a block worth of houses now rubble in New Orleans ( and I’m sure Houston at some point-although I’d wager they won’t even bother with the expense of bulldozing them-just leave to mold over, the outside looking like just any other foreclosed home ), rusting windowless skyscrapers in the Rust Belt.

*

The people there are only fed and housed because we still control the bulk of the useable petroleum through our already being abandoned currency monopoly.  Only by growing soy and corn above the last useable aquifer, forming them into calorie dense fast frozen foods and shipping them to every inhabitable hovel and hamlet are we keeping the bombed over looking areas from rebelling.  Well, they are, technically, rebelling.  The ghettos are virtually abandoned by law enforcement, with only paramilitary raids in force for showboating by the authorities, done exactly the same way in Cleveland or Rio De Janeiro.

*

But the break down in law and order isn’t the issue.  Areas without law enforcement have their own criminals enforcing the peace.  The issue is just about delivering core supplies.  Venezuela is obviously doing a poor job of doing so.  The United States Of Venezuela is still doing a bang up one.  Because there is enough excess energy to develop both a large government sector, AND a private one, we have always had both private and public means of providing services.

*

That doesn’t mean either do it at all well, it just means there was redundancy in the system.  If Venezuela had NO government, if it were an anarchists paradise, without resources the exact same thing would have happened there as it did.  The rich get resources, the poor get triaged out of the system.   That is the reality globally, in almost every nation ( except in some very SOCIALIST Artic countries, and that is from being until recently under populated ).  Those countries with too many people, perhaps excepting China ( for now ) are already triaging. 

*

Now, this isn’t a linear process.  You don’t go from eating to non eating to revolution.  As soon as food starts getting scarce, then the already existing problems in society are exacerbated.  The Arab Spring wasn’t about dictatorship, as that had been firmly in place for decade if not generations.  It was about food shortages THEN making dictatorship an issue.  In Africa, where Muslims and Catholics are clashing, it wasn’t religion that lead to full on war and genocide.  As food became too scarce, THEN the religious fractures lead to full on conflict.  It hadn’t mattered that there were two tribes in Rwanda, not until food became an issue, THEN the tribal differences became far more pronounced.

*

So, for the US, let’s look into our differences that will become our conflicts as soon as food security is threatened.  Continued tomorrow.

control central


CONTROL CENTRAL

While it’s true that our whole civilization and everything in it which has been misdirected towards running off petroleum is imploding as we speak ( especially our culture, not just our machines-do you think it would be possible to shelter crazy cat ladies in their own domiciles with their own set of appliances, wasting heat and cooling and food on an excess of domesticated pets, otherwise? In the future as in the past, bitter lesbian Women Libbers won’t be coddled and rewarded as they are a direct threat to the breeders ), it still behooves us to study how things used to work.

*

By knowing how they worked you can understand how the future will unfold.  If you erroneously believe that the Rothschild bank is going to take over the world by carbon taxing everyone during the implementation of Agenda 51, you are looking at the wrong threat.  If you think the federal government will get stronger, you are preparing for the wrong disaster.  This article explores the duties and roles of the three modern control mechanisms that the Elite are comprised of, and puts them into perspective so you might evaluate threats more logically.

*

First off, forget any conspiracy theory that goes against physics ( to include antimatter, Tesla free energy generation, Green Alien Overlords [ any race capable of fast enough space travel doesn’t need our puny planet and its naked monkey descendents ], chemtrails or weather modification ).  If we had to drop out of the Space Race AND ship all our factories overseas due to a falling oil supply, you can’t will extra energy into the equation to pretend to present a solution to our problems. 

*

( And remember, an abundance of extremely low to negative net energy liquid fuel does NOT mean we are Energy Independent.  It means we will invent extra financing and use the already in place oil infrastructure to keep the level of liquid fuels up at the current demand so as to keep the economy going to keep the Fake Fuel extraction going which keeps the economy going which keeps the bankers going.  Low Net Energy sources are not a solution, they are the last can kicked down the road.  Nazi coal fuel mined by Jewish slave workers as the Soviets invade ).

*

Lefties scream and shriek that evil Republican corporations are ruling the earth.  Libertarians think the evil banks are forming a one world government.  Militia members think that the FedGov will turn every empty building in Detroit into a concentration camp.  Any everyone is wrong.  Corporations cannot exist without banker finance and government protection.  Bankers need governments that need financing ( and will protect them ) and corporations that will feed and house them.  And the government would be puny without financing by the banks and corporations that extend their control for a profit.

*

No one branch can do it all.  They all need each other.  The government could finance itself, but they cannot do so anywhere close to as efficiently as a privately held central bank.  Corporations could protect themselves ( ala cyberpunk sci-fi ) but it is cheaper to get the government to do it.  And bankers could take over the world but couldn’t police it or run it.  You see, being the elite is being like a farmer in a small country.  You have a son, he needs new farmland to raise a family of his own.  Why do you think the Mennonites and similar are spreading out to crappy land needing irrigation? 

*

The elite spawn, and then need yet more profit to set Mr. Elite Junior up in his own empire.  To maximize profits you undertake to cut your costs, as well as specializing ( just as different birds evolve to feeding at different elevation levels of the jungle, lessoning competition for scarce resources ).  The banker, government or corporate bureaucrats impose different operating costs and fill their niche so fewer compete.  Yet at the same time the branches complement each other.  The bankers fund the insurance company, the government mandates coverage and the companies administer the daily operations.  The bankers get interest, the government gets taxes and the companies make a profit.

*

Government bureaucrats are necessary to run a non-profit where there is no customer supply and demand.  But they couldn’t properly run a bank that is a much leaner organization ( and staffed with pointier heads ), nor could they run a company which always is downsizing its bureaucracy.  Different ways of doing business.  Different motivations.  The government controllers must expand, companies must shrink and bankers need to control a core group that remains frozen. 

*

Now, you might be asking yourself about the Revolving Door Policy, whereby central bank executives run the governments Treasury Department and military officers are on defense contractors boards of directors or made into consultants.  Ask another question.  What does the Treasury do, if not act as a rubber stamp for the bankers?  And, what are boards of directors if not rubber stamps for a profitable CEO?  The positions are just bribes, they are not leadership roles. 

*

Okay, you counter, so what about the Battling Deep State?  Things might be tense as profits shrink and the job of raking in lucre might be more difficult ( no longer is it automatic ), but I don’t see any cutthroat activity, merely a more seemingly seamless protection racket unfolding.  Why else are the bankers only lending to mega-corporations and the government, the government relaxing regulations to the point of non-enforcement, and the propping up of the stock market ( to pay billions and billions to CEO’s and ilk )?  Is that competition between branches or cooperation?  Sure, within a branch there is more brutality.  Goldman pulls the plug on Lehman’s, the CIA might remove a President, corporations Hoover each other after weakening each other.  But the game stays the same, doesn’t it?  The three branches keep to their bailiwicks.

*

And as I’ve said many a time, resource surplus will always see expansion and resource contraction always sees decentralization.  Always.  To assume otherwise is to contradict physics.  If our resources are contracting, government or banks or business cannot grow without another resource user getting less.  Hollywood finances their movies from overseas audiences, as the native audience holds out for discounted fare.  Both aren’t growing in a contracting economy.  You can’t have a One World Government if it gets less money, energy and real resources every day.  You can’t have a Industrial War if industries raw materials are in severe contraction.

*

We are screwed, we WILL die, but at least identify the correct enemy to slightly increase your odds of surviving slightly longer.

guest article ( article 2 of 2 today )

GUEST ARTICLE ( article 2 of 2 today )

Refilling 16oz propane tanks using a refill adapter
 
The following procedure will describe in detail, how to refill 16oz propane tanks using a refill adapter and a 20lb propane tank. I thought that I would touch on this topic, as I recall from previous comments that there were some minions that encountered problems when attempting to refill these tanks. I’ve been doing this for years without incident, and since I can’t be there to see what they’re doing wrong, the next best thing is to try and remote troubleshoot the problem.
 
What I suspect is happening is as follows. The newer 20lb propane tanks have a safety valve. The intention of the valve is to prevent gas from escaping from the tank when there is nothing connected to it. The problem is that these valves stick a lot. I’ve been told that you only want to transport these tanks when filled, in the upright position, otherwise the valve will stick. Sometimes the valves stick regardless, and here is what I do, and it almost always works.
 
Try threading the adapter in and out of the 20lb tank in varying degrees, while simultaneously opening the knob to see if gas escapes. This usually works. In some cases you might have to bang the tank on a semi-hard surface, such as the ground, or a block of wood, but this is rare. In either event, when the adapter is installed, you must have escaping gas when the knob is turned before proceeding to the next step.
 
The best fills result when the donor tank (the 20lb’er) is warmed up, and the recipient tank is chilled. I usually place the donor tank in the sun, or somewhere else warm, an hour or two ahead of time. About a half hour before I plan on doing the fill, I place the small 16oz tank in the freezer.
 
It’s important to check the donor tank just prior to the fill, to be sure that the safety valve has not stuck. I’ve had this happen just from transporting it from a cold area to warm area, and after it sat in the warmer area over a period of time.
 
Thread the chilled 16oz tank onto the adapter that’s been fitted into the large tank. Turn the large tank upside down and open the knob. You will hear the gas flowing. The instructions that come with the refill adapters will tell you to wait one minute, but it is not necessary to time it. When the tank is full, you will no longer hear the gas flowing. You can’t overfill it, it will stop when it is full. Now before you close the valve, I have discovered that if you shake the large tank, even more gas will flow into the small tank. I usually do this until it no longer does so.
 
When you are through, make sure that there is no gas leaking from the freshly filled tank. You’re supposed to use soapy water to check it, but I just put my ear up to it and can hear if there is gas leaking. If you do hear a slight hissing sound from the gas escaping, you can use a small nail to manipulate the tiny valve in the neck of the gas bottle until it stops.
 
I just filled one a little while ago and got a whopping 33.8oz fill. I do believe that’s my best so far, and if I recall correctly, even brand new that’s a little more than they typically weigh.
 
When I refill a bottle for the first time, I date it. I then mark it after each refill to keep track of it. At the end of the season I throw the bottles away and start with new bottles the following season. I have refilled these little bottles up to 30 something odd times, without any problems. After that, I just decided that I shouldn’t test my luck and threw them out. I’m told that moisture accumulates in the bottles over time, and that they can rust from the inside out. But I’m only using them over a period of about 3 or 4 months, and then throwing them out.
 
One 20lb propane tank gives me around 25 refills, and it costs me around $12 to fill the 20lb tank. So as you can see, the savings are definitely there.
 
Legal Disclaimer: After refilling these tanks you can no longer legally transport them, so they must stay on your property. I don’t know the reason for this, and can’t recall the penalty, but it’s quite steep. As in a several hundred thousand dollar fine, followed by a prison sentence of several years steep.
 
Also, I’m assuming that some level of common sense is applied, such as not trying to refill one of these tanks next to an open flame, etc, and so on.

voting proves you can't vote


VOTING PROVES YOU CANT VOTE ( article 1 of 2 today )

I’d like to thank Spud for the comment that triggered this article idea.  Okay, before we start, what you are looking at all around you is clearly just collapse.  It is nothing more and certainly nothing less ( even though the MSM’s job is to attempt to prove otherwise ).  It isn’t socialism or racial minority mandatory hiring that caused JFK airport to go dark for the day.  Chinese hackers didn’t cause that, nor the Trilateral Commission One World Zionist Alien Lizard Overlords. 

*

Well, they might not have helped too much, either.  Too much government is never a great thing, but neither is it the bugaboo that is used to excuse corporate fraud.  Putting a stick of dynamite in a chimps hand is not a great way to prove by example he is as trained as a college graduate engineer.  And there have always been conspiracies ( to my dying day you cannot convince me a tower pancakes after NOT being hit by a plane-which wasn’t so much a government Deep State conspiracy as it is a conspiracy of ignorance from the whole population ).

*

These things ( incompetence/greed ) certainly don’t help.  But they don’t necessarily hurt enough to implode social structures.  If you’ll journey just to the second world war, you couldn’t unzip and take a leak without hitting a grossly incompetent, moronic, dangerous military officer or civilian corporate officer sitting on a economic control board.  Despite, not because, of our leadership, we still prevailed.  Because we had resources, hard and soft, that carried the day.  Stupidity is a human trait, softened or not by cultural programming. 

*

Everything around you falling apart is simply part of our resource implosion collapse.  Stupidity didn’t cause it, and Getting Rid Of Stupid won’t save it.  All this hooting and hollering isn’t going to change a thing.  It just makes the panic of the ship sinking a bit more muted and less noticed.  Denial isn’t going to change reality.  Denial of Peak Oil, denial of crop killing weather change ( whether heating or cooling ), denial your vote never mattered, this is all a waste of time.  If you are in denial, really all that means is you had it too good your whole life and you cannot understand the center not holding.  Your personal experience doesn’t allow for the possibility.

*

You’ll be unpleasantly surprised soon enough.  Now, having said all that, that everything you see is just collapsing civilization, I’d still like to explore the possibility that voting was not only rigged, but was much more subtle and insidious than even I could have guessed.  This is just an intellectual exercise-just a way to get the grey matter stimulated.  By understanding it, you probably won’t gain much new insight or understanding.  It has no survivalist value, other than to say you should trust everyone even less.

*

What is the common reaction to our last five Presidents ( or more, depending on your views )?  The people that voted for them are complete dumb asses.  Some folks even say voting at all makes you a dumb ass ( which is true, although it does no harm either except to increase your fear and loathing, even when not in Las Vegas ).  We prove to ourselves that voting and by association democracy is a complete failure.  It is a commonly held assumption regardless of your ( fake ) party affiliation.  If that many people voted for X, than people shouldn’t be voting.

*

Some will say that we need more political parties, but that doesn’t change much either.  European voters have all the political parties they could desire, from Green to Nazi ( now defined as anyone anti-multiculturalism.  In reality, the US government already has a Nazi Party government-or close enough-but I’ll stay polite and call then the Imperialist Party ).  Which just makes for MORE dislikeable voting choices-at least according to everyone else.  I like to think that this widespread Everyone Else Is A Moronic Voter attitude is cultivated.

*

Let’s say that you are part of the Elite.  You are very good at one thing which is fooling people into giving you mo’ money!  Propaganda is a great tool, and is so good because even if we know it is being used, you look at the world through your lens.  And according to you, you never lie or cheat ( okay, we all know we all lie.  “No, honey, those pants do NOT make your butt look too big.  No, baby, you ain’t fat-just a whole lotta women [ Eddie Murphy ].  Sorry, I don’t have any change to spare.  The difference is we lie with good rather than evil intent.  So lies are okay! ).  So you really cannot see others doing so unless you can prove it.

*

So the best propaganda uncovers the lie for you.  Which is just redirection.  People, all of us, you and me, we are not as smart as we think we are.  If we were, we wouldn’t congratulate ourselves on finding out the truth and going back to accepting being screwed.  The simple fact is, we go along with the Alpha Chimp telling us what to do regardless, as long as we are fed.  So, we are very busy lying to ourselves, to cope with our weak, pathetic lives.  The good propaganda allows us to think we are smarter than we are.  That voting matters is denial.  So the propaganda just needs to feed on that denial.

*

The propaganda doesn’t try to convince us voting matters.  It used to, until the Third Party, “None Of The Above” and nonparticipation rate necessitated a change.  Now, rather than getting two politicians to vote for that stand for your views, now you get two morons.  The more moronic the better.  In fact, you want the politicians to be blatantly, patently, the poster boy ( or girl ) for Special Ed Jerry’s Kids.  Then it is obvious to you that all the other voters were idiots and democracy doesn’t work.  And if democracy doesn’t work, then the de facto standard we see today ( shadow government Elite controlled ) is ipso facto a better choice.

*

Anyone with half a brain can see that voting doesn’t work.  The voters are voting for the world’s biggest idiots ( a CIA assassin, a stooge working for a murdering bitch, the CIA assassins brain dead kid, a Muslim immigrant, a rich Yankee showman ).  Taking the vote away from them by making the Presidents meat puppets then becomes The Lesser Of Evils.  You aren’t voting for the candidate who is the lesser of evils, you vote by acceptance the lesser evil control system.

selling steins 2 of 2


SELLING STEINS 2

Eliminating one olive from each salad on an in flight meal on one airline sixty years ago was a profitable start at eliminating inefficiency ( at the time, fares were federally regulated.  So, airlines competed by offering the best service.  Removing one olive was the first chip in reducing that mountain of service to a pile of rubble.  Killing service to make a profit, when services got you customers-way to be more efficient! ), leading to the logical conclusion of killing customers through deferred  service ( luckily, a lot of the planes can’t get off the ground-so the death toll remains low ).

Removing inefficiencies is also called removing barriers to failure.  To be more efficient, you stock less items on the shelf.  Losing that customer who is tired of making the trip to NOT find what he wanted.  The inefficiencies gained you customers.  It was inefficient to pay soldiers to work in the mess hall,  so you hired private contractors.  Now, you didn’t have extra men to pick up weapons to defend the base.  But that reduced payroll sure is efficient!  It sure is inefficient to pay police to merely patrol.  Far better to keep them busy generating revenue through traffic tickets.  So what if they can’t deter crime elsewhere!  They sure are efficient!

*

And it sure as God made little green apples is inefficient to pay out more in wages than is needed.  We don’t want to sell our product to our workers anyway, we’ll just sell it to the middle class and affluent!  Much more efficient!  Until everyone is so efficient there are no more customers ( have you heard the current joke about taxing the robots wages  to pay everyone a Universal Wage to buy the products the robots make? ).  There are no more middle class since it was more efficient for the banks to make rent unaffordable, and more profitable for the  medical industry to raise prices at South Hemisphere Dictatorship inflation rates.

*

And since it is inefficient to reduce interest rates on credit cards ( those customers have the audacity to go bankrupt when we implode the housing market! ), or even more inefficient to issue credit in the first place ( it is inefficient to accept any kind of delinquency payers ), there are no more middle class customers left ( if it wasn’t the higher rents, higher medical or lowered credit issuance, it would be the extra layoffs and closings leading to more unemployment ) which only leaves the affluent customers.  Who don’t shop at working class establishments ( a mint leaf next to an escargot drizzled with a exotic sauce leaves something to be desired compared to a Big Mac, but one doesn’t mingle with the proletariat ).

*

So, the core question becomes, who is going to buy your damn beer stein?  Ah, the humble beer stein, the poster child Backwoods Home Magazine always pins up to sell the dream of country retreats/farms mortgaged for thirty years.  No economic collapse to see here!  Move along, please.  Now, I am certainly NOT saying you shouldn’t sell your version of a hand crafted wooden beer stein.  Your skills as a craftsman will be the coin of the next realm.  No, what I am saying is, is that the money economy is crashing and a cash paying job is not the same as a craft.

*

Twenty years ago, Rawles and Backwoods Home were right as rain.  Today, they are sucking ass through a straw.  The 90’s was the last of the abundant conventional oil giving us Damn Skippy cheap oil.  And-AND-I might add for you five and a half cent Wal-Mart rimfire ammo purchasers ( NOT four-I just went in there ) trying to claim otherwise, the 90’s also saw the beginning of the global diffuse ore extraction using that cheap energy.  Now we are running out of even that ore, and coupled with expensive Fake Fuel ( unconventional fuel delivering less BTU ), our economy will never recover.  You no longer have the time to pay a thirty year mortgage, and especially not on the type of land they advocate which SCREAMED up into the stratosphere in price alongside the housing bubble.

*

Nor is there the real unemployment the 90’s had.  The unemployment today is HIGHER than during the Great Depression.  Only welfare ( to ALL classes, not just the poor.  Yeh, talking to you ya egotistical Rush Limbaugh listening pukes on Social Security, civil service wages or government contractor retirement ) is keeping the country out of revolution.  You want a revolution you Hippie Freak?  See what happens when the welfare spigot is turned off “to increase efficiency”.  I’m surrounded by Special Ed kids willingly taking it up the ass by the bankers.  Please, Sir!  May I have another?

*

If the money is dying, jobs for money are dying.  Acting as if a hobby will keep your wages coming in, when the wages left over from the few remaining workers are shrinking, is NOT a viable plan.  Your customers don’t have the extra money for beer steins!  Period.  It doesn’t matter how good they are.  Stop pretending making money is a solution.  Spending less to need less and increasing the skills to NOT buy other services or products-that is the key.

*

Again, I’m NOT discouraging self-employment or you trying to supplement your shrinking income.  I’m saying you MUST wean yourself from the money economy to the best extent you can.  If you do that while starting a business you’ll be fine.  But the day has already passed when you can rely on customers with enough disposable income to pay you enough to live conventionally.  It should be enough to keep you living in genteel poverty, but if you want more than that you will be disappointed as the trend moves against you.

*

Just because you are a competent plumber doesn’t mean your customers can afford you ( if you slowly become the last plumber due to others incompetence and lack of skill, you’ll eek out a living.  But for every successful you, there were many losers in the self-employment game.  More losers than winners.  I’m saying your odds are better at losing as the economic pie shrinks ).  Just because you acquired a niche market now doesn’t mean it will survive an economic contraction.  Never assume the world needs you enough to pay your mortgage or car payment.

*

There is a lot of denial around this subject, for the simple fact that we spend a lifetime gaining a skill we are proud of.  To contemplate that becoming irrelevant is disconcerting, to say the least.  And no one is saying go Full Retard Panic and move out into the hills and pick up aluminum cans ( which will also be a short lived job.  It doesn’t matter how precious aluminum becomes if less wages necessitate buying less beverages bottled in the metal ).  Just beware the need to be far more inefficient and have back-ups to ALL your back-ups.  That doesn’t JUST mean a second job.  That means a back-up to earning ANY money.
