Boomers and upper-middle class to America: We didn’t start the fire

The problems facing our society are bigger than the boomers, even if all they want to do is talk about themselves. It isn’t about race, or class. The evil our world faces is the same today as it was from the foundation of the world. The same percentage benefited from colonization as it does today from the monetization of debt, and roughly the same families. They serve a god who will as surely destroy them as he would all of God’s creation.

LL’s observation of the success of millennials is not a representative sample. Sure, a nephew of mine is a Sachs VP, but he was valedictorian of his class in business school. LL chooses to segregate himself, even to the point of expatriation. Millennials as a whole are a worthless bunch, as are the boomers. I’m an X’er, the meat in the middle. The US population of each is roughly the same, except now that boomers are dying off. Boomers as a whole are uneducated realists, willing to do anything to get by. Charles H Smith points out recently that a day of reckoning for the current financial house of cards will be due by 2024. Roughly around the time SS and Medi go insolvent. What happens then are bail ins and delayed payments, as Illinois is currently doing. Self sufficiency and independence are the keys, as LL has done.

Over population is a self correcting problem, and when the global system breaks down, it will be return to the dark ages. Nothing the enemy hasn’t seen before. The US is in a good position to weather whatever comes, if we aren’t overrun by the barbarian hordes as Europe is currently experiencing. The Chinese have a lot more to lose than the oligarchs in the US. Russia will survive the winter. AU is an island country, so LL should be OK.

The only real solution is given in Ecclesiastes,

“The end of the matter; all has been heard. Fear God and keep his commandments, for this is the whole duty of man.” Ecclesiastes 12:13

For, “What has been is what will be, and what has been done is what will be done, and there is nothing new under the sun.” Ecclesiastes 1:9
