People must, if they have any hope of surviving this, must learn to cut out the garbage from their lives. start by looking at your credit cad statement every month and realizing the things that really are not essential to life. Cable TV is not essential to living, Neither is an expensive cell phone or a beauty appt. a couple of times a month, or the gym, or subscriptions to magazines or newspapers you probably seldom look at. Then take a look at your grocery receipt and be honest. How much pop, beer, boxed, canned and bagged snacks as opposed to produce and if not a vegan dairy and meat? Convenience foods are fast and easy but also REALLY expensive and very low in nutrition. Might also want to honestly ask yourself it you can afford the house you live in or do you live there to impress someone you don't even like? And look at what you might be spending on little Timmy to indulge him. Most 3 year olds don't need a cell phone, or and I pad. The only game they need is a neighborhood group of kids playing baseball outside.

God provides for the faithful. We are to be aware of conditions around us, to love our neighbours, and to help one another. Time and again in Scriptures and in answers to prayers, God says do not be afraid. Amen.

While waiting in line at the grocery store the women in front of me was having difficulties paying with her ebt card while her husband was at the courtesy desk buying cigarettes and lottery tickets and my thought was what will these people do when the money is worthless or the entitlements stop coming?

Yes, many times I have seen in the checkout lanes women paying with "food Stamps" while dressed to the hilt, makeup and hair immaculate and manicured nails. Most of the "food" was canned, boxed and bagged so not even food. And what will they do when the shtf? Whine and cry like babies because they have zero money sense or living skills to save them.

Sad, isn't it.

I agree with what you say. But i also acknowledge that there are people in society who need a helping hand, but when that helping hand becomes multi generational and ingrained in there way of life with no attempt to break away from the gov't teat eventual collapse is the result.

I acknowledge that too. Plenty of good people that just need some help. They didn't ask for this just like we didn't.

I am an avid gardener and have been so blessed this year on produce Way more than I could ever use so I give it away. The homeless shelter in my town of 40,000 is serving 300 meals a day. My policy this year has been ZERO waste. I can't save the world but I can make a dent in my own little corner of it. I have always been a "prepper" what ever that is supposed to mean...Smart? Responsible? I do it for me, my family and my neighbors. I just lose patience with the ones that whine and take and never learn anything,. The only person on the planet you are responsible for and can change...is you. That's it!

California is a mess. It's too bad that no one correlates the failed liberal policies with the increase in lawlessness. It's not that our elections are fair and free any.ore anyway. It appears to me, that Governor Newsom is being groomed to run for president next fall. If he sits in the Oval Office, I will pack up and move somewhere far, far away. if you think Biden's bad.......

Weimar Germany, where it was cheaper to burn the cash than buy wood. Buy gold is very in vogue however, just try to eat it!

We cannot blame this on politicians. We vote for everyone of these idiots. The problem is us.We not voting for things but against things. That's why we so divided.

We as voters have tolerated our miserable education systems.

We the people openly abandoned capitalism for debtism. Easy credit was the issue. Credit should be expensive if given at all.

The central banks control it all. They were behind 2 world wars and the great depression and what is coming now.

There will be no middle class

Rescue, we are too far gone for that now. Remember God said all of this is part of His plan to end and judge this age. When God says he will aways the providing has to with presence and his will be done, i.e. peace with God.

Paul told the Philippians while he was waiting to beheaded unjustly, that was at total peace, his external circumstances did not matter good or bad for Christ was at the very center of all.
