"EXCERPT"..........

July will tell the truth about the economy. I've chosen November as the month of general truth, whether the years following will be of manageable coping, of unexampled disaster, or something in between.

We could see a return to pre-Covid conditions, the economy revive, preps largely unneeded. Or hard times will persist but get no worse than they are now, with normalcy slowly returning, preps helpful but not critical. Or daily life could worsen long term and become the new normal, modest preps necessary but sufficient until a slow turnaround takes hold some years out.

Or systemic disruption and shortages could multiply, the recession deepen into a depression , extensive preps needed to make it from one month to the next. Or it could become a general disaster with outright starvation, government rule by decree, cities uninhabitable, regional withdrawals into fiefdoms, and only extensive preps being enough to avoid personal catastrophe. Or we'll see a rapid and unstoppable national and global collapse, criminal raids on a regional scale, rule by force, preps depleted or confiscated and the widespread rise of outright survivalism.

Preppers attempt to maintain some or most of their present circumstances in tough times. The survivalist has his own definition of preps. He practices to survive by anticipating and training for the worst of the possibilities. Survivalism comes first, not last, because in the end preps assume the prepper survives to use them.

There are entirely reasonable variations on these themes. This is merely my personal arrangement.

 

Good evening Sourdough,

Just glanced through Ol' Remus' Woodpile.

The Peter Schiff "... ultimately the dollar is going to tank..." ... Unless assets are liquidated to prop up the monopoly money. I'm watching whether the asset first on list is Middle America's equity in their homes/condos. Might as well mention 401Ks and the Roths, Kellogh's and anything Middle America holds, less stamp collections and picture post cards.

Are those Light Amphib Warships - slow, little transport capacity for "enemy territory" or elsewhere ? They're tested a little south of here.

Had always believe Watergate was more than a minor scandal involving a Dem campaign office. I personally believe it had something to do with J. Edgar Hoover's recent death prior to Watergate and those 12 Mosler safes in Hoover's home that contained "pure cancer". Nixon must have been blackmailed.

I used to follow writings of Fred Reed. He's from near here.

Meanwhile, regardless of analysis, the party's over.

 

If we go, they go...

 

I’ve been following the Flynn case ever since it started. Good report on this in this weeks woodpile report:


Flynn puzzle, The Z Man - People at the very top of the Obama administration had some reason to hate General Flynn. The puzzle is what could it be? It is entirely possible that this whole sordid affair is like Watergate, a minor scandal grew into a monster that consumed the administration. None of the explanations offered up so far to explain the Flynn case make any sense. Throw in the bizarre behavior of the judge and it suggests there is something behind all of this that is much bigger than General Flynn. The extraordinary efforts being made to run out the clock on all of this suggest it is vitally important to permanent Washington.
