Like the illusion of Wall Street, with its vast and powerful investment banks, now shuttered, China too is an illusion perpetuated by the Globalists that gave us the 15,000 mile Caesar salad, poisoned cat food and lead based paint on babies' pacifiers. Like the illusion that money would come from thin air to always push housing prices higher, China has spent a generation pursuing its illusion. Pursuing an unattainable dream to be like the West, while 6000 years of its carefully shepherded top soil blows into the sea.

Oh my! Time to stock up on popcorn! I'm going to order 50 lbs from Sams Club right now!!!

There is doom and then there is DOOM.
This is DOOMER talk.
We are seriously going to spend a lot of money (even if I have to put it on a charge card) to stock up on popcorn.
We are getting our own milk cow next year. So we will have butter.
There WILL be hot buttered popcorn at our place to the end!
