France is burning right now, just as America burned during the mad summer riots of 2020. Britain’s economy is collapsing, and a cost of living crisis is rattling their political and social order. Germany is both nervous and struggling, and their right wing candidates are increasingly winning elections. Even sweet, nice Sweden is dealing with turmoil: In their case, the issue is immigrants—they want them to go back home.

As Joe Biden would say, God save the Queen.

For a variety of reasons, we are obviously seeing an unprecedented paradigm shift in the nations that have traditionally made up the Western bloc of countries, and America seems to be leading the quick march to catastrophe.

First and foremost, it is becoming blindingly obvious that Federal Reserve and governmental money dumps don’t make our economy stronger—they only reveal the rot within. For example, the onrushing collapse of commercial real estate (with residential probably coming right along behind) throughout the United Stares is going to start a cascade of small and regional bank failures that will expose the foolhardiness of fiscal and tax policies that have encouraged a decades-long speculative property frenzy—one that will likely unwind in the most ugly and destructive manner imaginable. 

Easy money always produces illusory wealth that can be snatched away in an instant when bankers run out of ways to recycle unmanageable debt or unload it on unwary institutional investors and pension funds who still believe real estate is a sure thing. This dynamic will play out both here in America and abroad, and the deflation certain to follow will reshuffle the our economic order in ways we cannot yet imagine.

It’s a good thing America has 1.5 billion pounds of surplus cheese stockpiled, right?

We are today living in the last stages of the Keynesian economic dream—or is it a nightmare?—where the government keeps goosing the economy with infusions of borrowed money for decades and decades on end whenever the party dies down. It’s rather like driving a truck with your foot continually pressing the accelerator to the floor: Eventually, you will burn out the engine or a catastrophic wreck will result. Heedless risk never turns out well, but it is often in everyone’s interest to ignore this simple fact—until it can be ignored no longer.

Free markets and the freedoms they require are anathema to the globalist central planners who have been piloting us to disaster for many years. Convinced of their own wisdom and desperate to maintain their control, we are today captive to the whims of elites who blithely flouted the insane Covid-19 restrictions they ruthlessly imposed on everyone else, fly their private jets to conferences on global warming, and each day buy up more politicians in much the same way that the rest of us stock up cans of stewed tomatoes. 

Our work and obedience are required; our opinions are thoroughly unwelcome.

Watching the Biden administration being snookered by China and Russia at every turn while they form alliances with our nation’s enemies (Putin even has Iran now building the drones they are using to attack Ukraine), Americans should be asking some very direct questions about the competence of our obviously senile President and the motivations of his increasingly desperate apologists. There has to be a point where the naked lust for power must be replaced by the patriotic duty to do what is best for our country, but it seems a lot of insiders are making too much money to bother with concerns about the corruption today destroying America. As long as the dollars keep flowing to the right people, today’s illusion of leadership on the Potomac will somehow be maintained.

Just give President Sock Puppet another ice cream cone and start another rant about systemic racism or the need to mutilate troubled children with gender affirming surgeries so that everyone can be distracted from the truth.

The vast majority of Americans are neither blind nor stupid. The obvious craziness of those who want to hand hundreds of billions of dollars in slavery reparations to people who were never slaves while insisting that no possible harm can result from running trillion dollar annual budget deficits until the end of time repels those who are scraping and scrounging to get by in an economy beset by historic rates of price inflation. 

What’s not to love about the leadership of our country today? We seem to learn a new way in which we are being lied to every day, cocaine has been found in the White House (I wonder how that happened?), the Grand Poobahs of climate change craziness now want to save us by blocking the sun’s rays, and the Biden administration is infuriated that a federal judge has, at least temporarily, blocked them from colluding with social media companies to censor ideas and opinions they deem disinformation.

Oh, let’s not forget that we’ve just agreed to send Ukraine cluster bombs, a terribly cruel weapon that 123 nations have agreed to prohibit because these routinely kill and maim innocent children and non-combatant civilians, so that we can turn ourselves into a nation of outright war criminals.

Napalm, anyone?
