    And this moron announced today that he's increasing the min wage of new fed contracts to $10.10. And the buffoons behind him clapped and cheered like it was his personal money that he was giving away.
    Of course, it isn't. It is our money. He takes credit for his benevolence with the money that he steals from you, me, and our children and grandchildren. And yet, these buffoons clap and cheer.

    I would be one who gives the President an "F" on all counts AND I think the worst is yet to come.

      I'm right there with you rich. At best he's a F.

      Note, if this post shows a down check, I confess I did it in error. I'm using a touch screen and as I was reaching to press the Reply button, the thumbs down button activated. I then selected the thumbs up button, but I'm not sure how this will affect things. Normally they aren't so close but in the case of a single line comment they end up very close. Sorry.

    I think what is coming is going to be worse than what most people think. I think even some of the prepers are going to be surprised.
    If there is a general economic collapse, the ceties will run out of food within days and the suburbs not soon after. Only the Farmers, ranched and "Prepers" will have food etc. If you are caught in the urban/suburban areas without a means to get food and protect yourself, you will almost certainly have you possessions stolen. That will be the beginning, it will get worse.
    I'm not being a doomsayer. Situations like this are rampant in history, the fall of Rome, and the fall of Jerusalem. Genghis Kahn’s role across central Asia and Eastern Europe. It won't be pretty.
    There are ways to prevent this, but neither party has the political will to see it done. Cut spending, reduce the debt, and protect the borders return to a military force that can protect the country. Educate the children in the best schools possible. You get the idea. Return this country to its greatness. No one seems to want to do that.

    There is no question what I believe I see, hold on to what you have and stock up on the things you need to survive. Thanks to BO blocking any real cola adjustments to my income stream, our income has been nearly flat for around five years. In that time we have seen the prices for life's essential needs, food, fuel, clothing everything has increased in price, but the income of seniors on SS and disabled veterans, military pay and more have been increased no more than 3% over four years. Folks who had income that was adequate for their needs when BO took office are now on food stamps and some qualify for welfare.

    Of my immediate circle of friends, nobody believes that things are improving or even holding. All believe we are heading to a precipice that's going to make the depression look like a bump in the road.

    According to several sources to be found online, the accuracy of the audience when polled is approx. 92% on the show "Who Wants To Be A Millionaire." The wisdom of crowds or the majority within has some merit.
