Hello, everyone. Today, I’m going to share my thoughts on the current political and economic landscape, which, frankly, has left me more certain than ever that being prepared is not only a prudent thing to do, but mandatory..
The hope I once had for significant change in Washington has evaporated. We’ve seen no real action on promises like dismantling the deep state, auditing gold reserves, or bringing peace to the world. Instead, what we’re witnessing is a continuation of the same old patterns: increasing deficits, unchecked military spending, and a lack of accountability for past misdeeds.
The economic crisis feels inevitable now, not a matter of if, but when. The recent “big beautiful bill” touted by some in Congress is nothing more than a debt bomb, promising fiscal responsibility in the future while ignoring the immediate financial strain it places on the country. Thomas Massey, a voice of reason, has pointed out the absurdity of our current path, likening it to stoking the boiler on the Titanic while steering directly at the iceberg.
The bond market is showing signs of revolt, with investors demanding higher interest rates, signaling their lack of confidence in our fiscal policies. This is a critical indicator that we’re approaching a breaking point. The government’s response? More borrowing, more spending, and a refusal to address the core issues, like the unsustainable growth of debt compared to GDP.
On the energy front, the situation isn’t any brighter.
