I think in the next coming years, shite is going to hit the fan.
The WOD is slowly ending, and with that comes a detraction of power from the state.
I believe that Ron Paul's revolution within the Republican Party is alive and well, and that the movement will continue with the nomination of his son.
The public will get sick of the polarization of our leaders, and will get sick of the media portraying the false duality of American politics.
I am, however, a diehard optimist.
It's not the worst thing that there are believers, like you.
Enough believers and it might make a difference.
I just wonder if it's too late, even if someone capable of making real changes gets to office.
I think if we were to start moving in the right direction it would mean a great amount of pain. Just as a junkie who's used for too long can't just quit, there is a painful rehab process.
We're pumping 85 billion dollars a month into this system to keep it from dying. We are literally like a junkie who has to have a certain high dosage a day to keep it together.
The financial thing is a big deal, but there is also the physical infrastructure that has been built to satisfy this current consumer model. Everything was built to satisfy this system, find it really hard to imagine how we can dig out of the hole we are in.
As it is right now our economy is totally reliant on the rest of the world trading oil in dollars. It's the reason we're able to do quantitative easing. How can we be honest about trying to reduce oil usage when we are totally reliant on the worlds continue use of it. I just see a huge crash coming, whether it's in 3 years or 30, this thing is going down.

Some forests must burn in order to survive.
The change won't be easy, but it will come.
