Can you imagine someone in 1928 saying the bottom was going to fall out of the stock market? Ya right, never gona happen. It did and it was catastrophic. Nothing "real" or physical changed. No crops were destroyed, no factories were damaged. The infrastructure was unchanged. All that happened was the house of cards fell, killing the becoming like worm, wipes out a computer.
How could another house of cards be build so close to the great depression. It's the same out of control imaginary credit that's been built up again. Even if PO were not coming (or already here) this house of cards is doomed. We are kidding our selves that this way of life can continue like it has been.

bump
I am still here.
The people have spoken yet I want to hear more.
Come now Aaron and Monte and Peanut etc etc
Come and tell us what you think.
Come now Matt S, Bobbyboy, JD and Spe.
Come, tell us what you feel.
Within my mind is the potentiality of the darkest of them all.
To redefine the term "doomer" as I do very little "half way".
Is this my true calling?
Is this why I am here?
I dont want to die yet I dont think I wanted to be born either so really do I have a choice?
If it is my calling am I only now hearing the sounds?
34 years just farking around???
Making babies without thought for the future?? etc etc
Come now and tell me what you see.
You dont really have to say anything - just vote please.
