It's Labor Day and I can't help but feel for the millions of American laborers who are feeling immense pressure due to current economic conditions. Inflation is ripping, companies are laying people off en masse and people are being forced to take on multiple jobs to stay afloat.

Meanwhile, the federal government is doubling and tripling down on disastrous economic policy that will put more out of the workforce and increase the national debt considerably. The feeling of increased hopelessness is palpable.

As you take time to rest and reflect on this Labor Day I urge you to think about the effects government has on your quality of life and whether or not it deserves the influence it has. Try to imagine what life would be like without the government putting its thumb on the scale.

Everyone is to busy eating hamburgers to recognize inflation ripping

The tentacles of the enemy reach into all of our lives via our local resident psychopaths. When we recognise them, and shun them, and refuse to do business with them, no matter the seeming cost, that's taking one person's life force out of the vampires supply.

If enough people can be taught how to recognise psychopathy and ostracise these people, even if that means migrating, they have less power as obeisance to the petty psycho feeds the power of the more powerful, since if you fall for a small trick, you are ripe for big ones.

I don't consider either the exploiters or their complacent food sources to be human. But every chance there is to open a crack of daylight into their world, do it. Just don't be foolish to think that you can save them.

That's their job.

Take care of yourself and your family, and even them, if they are hypnotised and see your attempts to open the window to the bigger picture as an attack on them, shun them too.

There is no value in comforting the vampires or their ghouls. It is a waste of your time.

Only refusing to deal with them and taking every cost you think you will have to pay to have them out of your life will make anything better. And trust me, when you haven't got leeches attached to you, your life gets better so fast, it will make you dizzy.

The most frustrating thing is listening to economists say that the labor market is still strong and that employment is doing well. It’s total bullshit. I ran into a friend that told me he is in a hole. His wife’s car got repossessed and he can’t afford insurance for his car. His business is struggling and he is working doordash on the side trying to keep up. He hopes and prays he doesn’t get pulled over by a cop since he is not insured. This is the recession our central banking overlords wanted. This is the suffering it takes to bring down inflation that THEY caused. Suffocate fiat and buy bitcoin. Do whatever it takes to survive these hard times and come out on top stronger!

I think you'll find all those dollars in Ukraine mate. Sitting alongside our pounds and hundreds of thousands of dead young men

Thank you, Sir. 2y ago

The dollars and pounds will return in time. Unfortunately the young men won’t.
