Over the past three years, millions of migrants have come pouring into this country looking for a better life. They were promised that things would be so much better once they got here, but for so many of them that has turned out to be not true at all. There just aren’t enough resources to care for the vast number of migrants that are arriving, and as a result many quickly find themselves homeless. It is a tragedy of monumental proportions, and it is getting worse with each passing day. (Read More...)
Extreme Global Hunger: The UN Warns That Some Of The Poorest Areas Of The World Have “Zero Harvests” Left
In 2015, UN officials established a goal of completely eliminating global hunger by the year 2030. Needless to say, they have failed dramatically. According to the UN, someone is dying from starvation “every few seconds” as the global food crisis continues to accelerate. Unfortunately, experts agree that what we are experiencing right now is just the beginning, because land is being degraded at a staggering pace. As you will see below, 40 percent of the world’s land is already degraded, and it is expected that figure will reach 95 percent by 2050. Here in the western world, we can still use various methods to temporarily improve the quality of our soil, but the head of the UN World Food Program says that in some of the poorest parts of the planet we have already reached a point where there are “zero harvests” left… (Read More...)
Do You Believe That Women Should Be Drafted For The Military?
Are you ready for our daughters to go to war? Democrats in Congress want to make it mandatory for young women to register with the Selective Service System when they turn 18 just like young men do. Of course if a major war erupts and our politicians reinstitute a military draft, the draftees would come from those that have registered with the Selective Service System. So if the Democrats get their way, we will be just one step away from young American women being forced to go to war. But proponents of such a move argue that we need to do something because military recruitment has fallen to depressingly low levels, and they insist that there are many jobs that women could do away from the front lines during a major war. So what do you think? Do you believe that women should be drafted for the military? (Read More...)
Retirement Nightmare! Hordes Of Retired Americans May Need To Go Back To Work Just To Survive
The Social Security program was instituted to help elderly Americans thrive during their retirement years. Unfortunately, millions upon millions of retired Americans are finding that their monthly Social Security payments are simply not enough as the cost of living spirals out of control. One recent survey found that a whopping 85 percent of U.S. adults now consider inflation to be one of the most important political issues that we are facing, and seniors are being hit particularly hard. In fact, a different survey that was just conducted by the Motley Fool discovered that 44 percent of retired Americans are thinking of going back to work because they need more money to survive… (Read More...)
The Truth About What Is Happening To The Petrodollar
This month, rumors about the petrodollar have spread like wildfire all over the Internet. Some of what is being said is true, and some of what is being said is false. When other sources were reporting on “the death of the petrodollar”, I was asked why I was not writing about it. Well, the truth is that I was not writing about it because the petrodollar is not dead. It is certainly in trouble, but it is not dead. Today, most oil continues to be sold in U.S. dollars, and most global trade continues to be conducted in U.S. dollars. But that could change as other countries lose faith in our currency. In particular, we will want to carefully watch what the BRICS nations choose to do. 45 percent of the world’s inhabitants live in the BRICS nations, and they have been implementing strategies that are designed to promote their own currencies and reduce dependence on the U.S. dollar. As U.S. relations with leading BRICS nations continue to deteriorate, I would expect that trend to accelerate. (Read More...)
Hundreds Of Thousands Of Americans Are Going “Off Grid” In Anticipation Of What Is Coming
As our society descends into chaos, vast numbers of people are choosing to pull the plug and walk away. Of course it is nearly impossible to completely escape the ubiquitous madness that is seemingly all around us, but many are finding that an “off grid” lifestyle gives them the best opportunity to insulate themselves as much as possible. When you become less dependent on the system, what happens to the system has less of an impact on you. Unfortunately, it appears that our system is heading into a full-blown meltdown, and a significant portion of the population is feverishly making preparations in anticipation of what is coming.

In The Old Days We Had “Slumlords”, But In 2024 We Have “Vanlords”
If you live in a major city, you can see them all around you. I am talking about aging vans, RVs and trailers that are parked on the side of the road for months at a time and that obviously have people living in them. There is an entire class of people that live in such conditions, and there is an entire class of “businessmen” that prey on such people. When I was growing up, there were lots of headlines about “slumlords” that were taking advantage of the poor. According to the Merriam-Webster dictionary, a “slumlord” is “a landlord who receives unusually large profits from substandard, poorly maintained properties”. Today, we have a different sort of a problem. “Vanlords” are parking vans, RVs and trailers along the streets of the worst parts of our major cities, and they are renting them out to people that cannot afford regular homes. Sadly, we live at a time when lots and lots of people cannot afford regular homes because homelessness is absolutely exploding all over the nation. In some areas there have been efforts to crack down on the “vanlords”, but when things get too hot in one area they just move somewhere else. As long as there are vast hordes of homeless Americans that are deeply suffering, there will be “vanlords” that are eager to take advantage of them. (Read More...)
Surveys Show That The American People Absolutely HATE What Is Happening To The Economy, And This Is Why…
The health of the economy has been one of the primary determining factors in many presidential elections, and it will be the same this time around too. Of course that is really bad news for Joe Biden, because the American people absolutely hate what is happening to the economy. Even though the media is constantly telling us that the economy is doing just fine, the vast majority of the population is not buying into the propaganda. Hordes of small businesses are failing, retailers are shutting down thousands of stores, and poverty is exploding all over the nation. But inflation is the biggest reason why Americans are so dissatisfied with the economy. According to one recent survey, it is “far and away” the biggest issue for American voters… (Read More...)
