Disrupting The Status Quo
"The Constitution does NOT give you rights. You already have them (granted by God). The Constitution simply tells the government that it cannot take those rights away. I wish more people understood this."
The planned demolition of America continues uninterrupted. Prices are rising every day as our money is purposely devalued in a financial system designed to reward the wealthy elites using the hope and hard work of the working class.
I went to a grocery store tonight and here's what I saw: organic zucchini is $3.99 a pound, the average price for a bag of coffee is $12, decent chocolate bars are $6, a pint of ice cream costs $6, and steak is completely unaffordable to most of us. Rent in my state is typically around $1200 to $1500 per month, plus every extra fee the property management companies can squeeze out of you: water, sewer, trash, pest control, pet rent, parking, credit card "courtesy" fees, amenity fees, and late fees. Some now charge a fee to use the online portal to submit maintenance requests. I even saw one company that requires quarterly inspections of apartments, and they charge the tenants $20 for each inspection. I often joke that if landlords could charge for the air in their apartments, you can bet they would do it. And then there are rising bills for electricity, natural gas, internet access, a telephone, renter's insurance, clothing, hygiene products, and a vehicle, plus fuel, insurance, and maintenance expenses for that vehicle.
And before any of those things can be paid for, the government steals a large chunk of money out of our paychecks to fund wars, black budget projects, and corruption. They also build a few roads, if they have any money left over.
The America that our parents and grandparents enjoyed is gone. The "American dream" is now a shed from Home Depot converted into a home, if you can find a piece of land that the government actually allows you to use without demanding tens of thousands of dollars to be spent complying with burdensome zoning rules and building codes. You could buy a standard home in a decent neighborhood, but expect to pay half a million dollars or more for that privilege, and good luck finding a bank who will loan you that kind of money when you're making $17 an hour at Chipotle.
This situation isn't temporary. Financial analyst Catherine Austin Fitts says as much as $21 Trillion is missing from the U.S. Federal Treasury, purposely looted by the wealthy elites and sent overseas. They've given up on America and that means they've given up on all of us. And that's why the cost of living is spiraling out of control while incomes stay flat.
The situation for some has gotten so bad they've been forced to live in their cars, and those are the lucky ones. Other people who, in an earlier time, considered themselves to be "middle class" now find themselves living in tents, homeless shelters, or sleeping on the couch of a sympathetic friend, even though they have full-time jobs.
In the video below, you'll see how real Americans are forced to live in what we're told is the richest nation in the world. As grim as their situations are, I fear we're just now beginning to see what a collapsing empire looks like. As the system implodes and desperation grows, having a car to sleep in might become an aspirational luxury.
Worst of all, no one is coming to save us. Our political system is broken, controlled on both sides by greedy, immoral people only concerned about their own wealth.
We have to fix this, each of us working together to make sure everyone's basic needs are met while we find a way forward.

President Trump defended his recent controversial remarks when he said he was not factoring in Americans' cost-of-living concerns during "negotiations" to end his illegal war against Iran.
“I don’t think about Americans’ financial situations. I don’t think about anybody. I think about one thing: We cannot let Iran have a nuclear weapon,” he said.
“That’s a perfect statement. I’d make it again,” Trump later told Fox News’ Bret Baier.
Trump's own intelligence advisors have stated that Iran isn't developing a nuclear weapon, and the former Supreme Leader of Iran, Ali Hosseini Khamenei, had issued a fatwa more than 20 years ago forbidding nuclear weapons projects. Yes, Iran has a uranium enrichment program, but enriched uranium can be used for nuclear power plants, naval propulsion reactors, and medical research devices. To imply that its only purpose is to build bombs is untrue.
So is Trump out of touch with reality, or is he simply lying for his masters in Israel?
Maybe Ex-US Navy analyst Malcolm Nance said it best: “He does not think beyond himself… as long as he personally is not losing money.”
Suffer on, peasants. Trump isn't troubled by your pain.
