We are all swimming in it, folks…
This one pretty much sums up the way i feel about the future. It really is that bad. I honestly can’t think of one thing that hasn’t gotten worse for the lower classes in the last few years and i see no sign that there will be a reversal in our fortunes. I was playing with the idea of doing a text post titled something like “Sorry, folks, but we are all fucked!” but i’m just not that fond of writing blog posts any more. Eventually, this much more succinct way of saying where i think things are going popped into my head, and a few hours later here it is. I guess all we can do is brace ourselves for a very nasty future and try to prepare by going out and buying a figurative wetsuit and snorkel.
“I’ve seen the future, brother. It is murder…”
Over the last few years it has become clear that the West is descending into tyranny. It used to be my view that such an outcome was probable, but it has recently become clear that such an outcome is not merely probable but almost certain.

Within twenty years — at the most — we will all envy the Russians and the Chinese, because their tyrants have an ideology that tells them to take care of the peasants to at least some extent. The Neo-feudal plutocracy taking over the West has no such ideology, only what Adam Smith called the vile maxim of the masters of men — “all for ourselves, and nothing for other people.”

Get yourselves some wet-suits, folks, because it won’t be long before we are all swimming in some very, very deep shit.
