“US Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and director of the Defense Intelligence Agency, Lt. General Vincent Stewart (USMC), reported on the intelligence community’s assessment of current and potential threats to American security and interests.”

 Does this mean war?

There is a dangerous leadership vacuum at the highest levels of power inside the G7 nations as financial collapse looms, according to Fulford. “There will be economic collapse, mass starvation, anarchy and civil war unless the system is totally rebooted.

   ”On the flip side, if the system is rebooted,

   living  standards in the world’s countries can be

   doubled  within a year. The key is to free

   the nations of the world  from Babylonian

And just what is reality today? Tom Dennen”s view  on doubling living standards…

Rising taxes, unpayable debt, litigation, bureaucracy, bankruptcy, negative regulations, never-ending mercenary wars, street violence, scot-free high-end financial criminals, conflicting propaganda and more.

We were born into today’s “just the way it is” pradigm and accepted without question what our parents, teachers, religious leaders and politicians taught us. By the time we were seven years old we were already conditoned with our mind set fully integrated in it.

The Transition to Off-Grid Living.

Marshall McLuhan’s ‘Global Village’ is an idea whose time has come in the form of communities that ensure power, water and food security for themselves as the abandonment of infrastructure maintenance begins to bite: Power outages and water restrictions could be here to stay because every western country is servicing the interest on its debt rather than using its taxes to provide basic services.

The Global Village concept needs to be seen in the light of the fact that the information here is verifiable fact.

What is happening today is no longer a game – the Monopolists have won all the material wealth in the world and the rest is in a global hock shop.

     What is going on in ordinary people’s minds today is the most important paradigm shift in human history.

 

It is based on many factors, but the following compilation sums it up in Capitalist terms: I’ve paraphrased some information from “The Great Reckoning”, an investors’ guide for wealthy people in ‘Bust’ times written by British journalist James Dale Davidson and Lord William Rees-Mogg and published by Sidgwick & Jackson in 1993.

Captitalism is history cast in four centuries of stolen middle class wealth:

The western world has never achieved more than a few decades of prosperity…. And those ‘Boom’ periods were all credit-driven.

Davidson & Mogg’s punctuation of the six events below is virtually proof that once is an accident, twice is a coincidence but three times is a Declaration of War.

Four times is the gleeful realization that the Declaration fell on the deaf ears of a sleeping middle class, five times is simple daylight rape and plunder of the same people’s grand children.

The sixth time, this Grand Theft of the entire planet’s material wealth is a wake-up call to join the major transition from pliable consumers to responsible producers living off the grid.

First Time: Commodity prices peaked in London in 1711. The South Sea Bubble burst exactly nine years later in 1720.

Depression and profiable wars followed.

Second time: producer prices peaked in London in 1763. The London stock market crashed again in 1772 (nine years later).

Depression and profiable wars followed.

Third time: Commodity prices peaked in London in 1816.The London stock market crashed in 1825 (nine years later, bracketed by the Napoleonic Wars).

Depression and profiable wars followed.

Fourth time: Wholesale prices peaked in New York in 1864. A worldwide assets crash began in May 1873 (nine years later).

Depression and profiable wars followed.

Fifth time: Our beloved Great Depression in the 30s, about which much has been said, from which little learned.

The Great Depression included the “War to End all Wars” which segued into the Second World War, followed by Korea and the ‘swinging sixties’, a credit-driven Boom time from the fifties to the early seventies, during the ‘Cold War’ and now into the ongoing “Middle East Conflict”, a hundred years of non-stop war.

Sixth time: Commodity prices peaked in Tokyo in 1979 and the Tokyo stock market crashed in 1988 (again, nine years later). The depression following that crash is now upon us with a future that can no longer be derived from bad debt.

A possible and quite viable future is already happening: the high-tech humanism of sharing, the beginning of a true Brotherhood of Man living on Nature’s bounty, possibly even of being all of our brother’s keepers in mutual prosperity.

The Meek are indeed inheriting the earth as more and more people get off the power grids, the water grids, the political and financial grids.

Just what is happening?

All over the world economic localization is taking root: the equal and opposite reaction to external monopoliistic globalization, it’s the internal contraction of small communities into self-sustainable groups of people living off politically and economically imposed grids – Transition Towns.

As simple as that.
