Perhaps some thinking member(s) of the bureaucracies are realizing “the Grand Plan” to destroy the economy and country is failing (or in need of “better” leadership); they will read this article, and realize it presents more than a comprehensive set of specific steps to alleviate the “bottleneck”, it offers a “face saver” to the demoncrats who only know how to destroy not “fix / solve” any societal problem. … Thus, what if a “hero(ine)” demonrat were to seize the opportunity ? … Constantly, the lower level sociopaths will see an opportunity to gamble, form a cabal for the sole purpose of promoting themselves, and thus either lead or partially usurp the national and state sociopaths. Remember the system rejuvenates and perpetuates itself based on competition among the sociopaths; each is always attempting to “game” another and their cabal.
Who could have thought that we would be where we are? If ten years ago you had said that: 1. In ten years America would be ruled by a ‘president’ with dementia and who despised the people he claimed to govern; 2. That the US Military would force Dishonorable Discharges upon those personnel who took their vows seriously; 3. That The US Department of Justice would persecute all those who evinced the slightest criticism of the ruling “elites”. 4. That the entire media apparatus would be marshalled to defend the ruling class, spread lies throughout the nation, and to serve as attack dogs against any opposition. 5. That Negrophilia would be forced upon white Americans, allowing the black man to do whatever he wishes with absolutely no consequence. 6. That every aspect of American History was to be torn down, re-written, demolished and slandered. 7. That all government power at every level would shut down economies, force everyone to cover their faces and threaten to destroy those would refused the “vaccine” and all its future iterations. 8. That you would be persecuted by the full power of the government if you dare say that “men and women are different”.
And on and on and on.
Who could have thought this ten years ago? Yet here we are. Are you ready for the next ten years?
Brother, I’d ask a similar different question, mine would be,,,
Who didn’t see this coming.
When a people THINK they MUST submit cuz they believe at some level the nonsense being force fed to the world by a concept, referred to as Government.

Re; the “Bottleneck”, Miss Barnhart is correct. What we are seeing is part of the larger plan to take down the U.S. and the Dollar. Thus bringing closer the reality of the so called “Great Reset”.
I recommend resistance.
Re; Mike Austin’s annoying tendency to enumerate the litany of issues threatening our survival and to casually and cavalierly quip “Who could have thought this ten years ago? Yet here we are. Are you ready for the next ten years?”
Well, to anyone that has been paying attention, it is clear from a tertiary review of history that bad shit happens when corruption is rampant and apathy rules the day.
So to answer the query of – “Are you ready for the next ten years?”
I’m as ready as I will ever be and I intend to stand tall on the other side of this monumental shit-show.
Why? Because I am a survivor and not a whiney-ass quitter. I will be in my mid-sentries in a decade and I intend to laugh in the face of death until the Good Lord says time is up. Not when the Grim Reaper and his acolytes think they will have their way.
Why?
BFYTW.

I’m not going to speak for Mike, I only speak for me. Yes, we all knew “something” was going to bring all this down, we just didn’t know “how” it was going to happen. It still hasn’t crashed but it’s headed in that direction. Everything so far has been nickle and dime stuff and I think the big deal is still looming. The total crash of the whole gov’t money thing. You know, the stealing and borrowing and spending and printing thing. I know little about how BIG money is dealt with, I only know how money of a family, and small business functions. As an individual and a small business owner I know that if I go too far into debt I will crash and burn. I do not have unlimited credit like the gov’t seems to have. Therefore I don’t know how the gov’t keeps going further and further into debt as it does. In my very small view the system should have crashed long ago. Denninger, Kunstler, and a host of other very smart people claim physics dictates that what can’t continue won’t continue but that gov’t spending pattern just keeps on rolling along. When it simply cannot spend any more it is then that the bottom will truly be gone and at that point all bets are of, on everything.
Sometimes I wish I didn’t know what I know and could relax and enjoy every facet of my life but with this enormous volume of gov’t criminality hovering over top of everything on this planet it is impossible for me to ignore. Think how pleasant life would be to be ignorant of all of this.
Boat GuyOctober 24, 2021, 7:23 AM
“Pleasant” right up to the time reality smacks one in the face. I have been expecting this for something more than a decade; but that does not blind me to the true pleasantness of family, friends and faith as we continue to prepare. Every day that it doesn’t start is a day to prepare and to enjoy.
Yes the “system” that provided maverick and mitt as “opponents” to the thugs and thieves we got is rotten. We got a brief reprieve when DJT gamed the system – and we see it in all of it’s villainy now.
Time’s coming fast. Hope to see you on the other side.
Come on “Kevin in PA”! So I have an “annoying tendency to enumerate the litany of issues threatening our survival”? Fess up: You have been talking to my three ex-wives haven’t you?
As for you being “as ready as you will ever be”, I agree with that sentiment. Food, water, fuel, paper products, meds, stove, physical fitness, batteries, lighting, 2nd Amendment gear: I am as ready as I can be.
As for “when the Grim Reaper and his acolytes think they will have their way.” I have encountered the fellow in several countries over the years. He is not actually a friend; rather an acquaintance. He failed each time for I was not yet ready. But one day he will succeed. One other thing: the SOB is always smiling. Why?

Ten years ago we had Obama, Biden, and Clinton in the political ascendency. Obama and Clinton were known protégés of Saul Alinsky, a self-proclaimed radical. Biden was known for his mendacity.
Worse, Obama grew up worshipping by listening to Rev. Jeremiah Wright (Trinity United Church, Chicago). Wright preached anti-Semitism and hate of pluralistic America as did another local Obama associate, Luis Farrakhan leader of the Nation of Islam.
During Obama’s time in office, he entertained people like Ta-Nehisi Coates, a former Black Panther, who is now a celebrity despite his racism then and now. If a man (or woman) can judged by the company they keep, these relationships should have alarmed people.
In 2008, Obama announced to the world, “We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America.” Americans should have been alarmed, instead they applauded. He spent his presidency reshaping the executive branch (including Clinton’s efforts at the State Dept.) and judicial branch with appointments that still impact us.
The reasons America didn’t see what was unfolding earlier are many. Trump warned us. Let us hope, we can find a future leader whose wisdom, skills, and ability can turn this ship.
ghostsniperOctober 23, 2021, 3:03 PM
It’s not the leaders. It’s the system. It is gravely flawed. Moral, sane men can take over the helm but the built in flaws will overwhelm them. THERE IS “NO” ACCOUNTABILITY. Period.
You and I must live by rules and morality. In the absence of the first, and ignoring the second, you have what it is. It probably needs to be torn down and rebuilt entirely. It could possibly be fixed and made better, the system, but as long as the criminals are getting their way there no incentive for them to do so. So they’ll just keep criminaling until they can’t.
gwOctober 24, 2021, 7:29 AM
Good points on the system’s flaws, lack of political accountability, and need for changes. .Unfortunately, the Left hijacked that train long ago. The result looks to be a dog’s breakfast for the average citizen. In the meantime, we can still fight locally and hope that country has a national moment of clarity.

I’m ready right up to the part where I get shot to death while defending America as Founded, but I’m told you really don’t ever need to be “ready” for that.
Casey KlahnOctober 23, 2021, 6:09 PM
TBH, I can’t imagine one year from the next. When 2020 ended, I thought; “that was some shit!” Now, 2021 rolls to its near end and I am quacking with wonder at what will happen in 2022.
Ten years is unfathomable. In 10 years, I will find a paper surgical mask in the pocket of some old jeans, and will recall, wistfully, those salad days when we all thought we might die from Covid. Then, I stuff it back in my pocket, and dodge from one building to the next to avoid the UN anal swab drones zipping overhead.
I know: none of that was original but it was funny when those memes first came out. 10 years? You’ll be serving in a gulag for saving memes on your govt. communications device.
In a decade, you’ll be licking hippy balls, drinking kale, and quivering in a corner while the gay tranny robots pass by on the street.
C’mon, join in; this is fun…(not)
I have been harping on this issue for some time, and I won’t repeat here what I have already written. Is China an enemy? Certainly. Can China hurt me? Certainly not. True enough that she is a monstrous parasite, murderous and bloody, filthy and mendacious, larcenous and ugly, but she can only carry out her depredations upon her own people. Every nation on her borders hates her guts.
There are those who really believe—I mean actually believe, not just being paid to say they believe— that China is “the wave of the future”, that China is all-powerful, that China can easily defeat the US in a war. They have succumbed to fear and propaganda.
Lance de BoyleOctober 23, 2021, 7:48 PM
China. If “the future belongs to China,” then the future is a raggedy-ass clown.
My daughter has already been brainwashed. I tried very hard not to make that happen, but I failed. And at the end of it all, I believe I will have myself done away with when it is convenient to everyone. And they will all agree that it was best for me and for everyone.

The Great Reset is my equivalent of “Let it Burn”. Or perhaps a mirror image of it.
A great many people will be hurt or die if either version occurs, perhaps most of the human race will die. Without civilization we are savages using sticks to dig up bugs.
The good news: most of the dead will have been leftists or ignorant dolts, but I repeat myself.
I had lunch yesterday in Naples with two fellow cruise ship passengers, a young couple from Long Island. Very nice kids….. but…..they thought Bruce Jenner was the governor of California. Let it burn.

Who Am I? by Carl Sandburg
My head knocks against the stars.
My feet are on the hilltops.
My finger-tips are in the valleys and shores of universal life.
Down in the sounding foam of primal things I reach my hands and play with pebbles of destiny.
I have been to hell and back many times.
I know all about heaven, for I have talked with God.
I dabble in the blood and guts of the terrible.
I know the passionate seizure of beauty
And the marvelous rebellion of man at all signs reading “Keep Off.”
My name is Truth and I am the most elusive captive in the universe.
Duty, Beauty, Liberty, Country, Honor, Family, Faith — Plus a few simple easy to follow rules for guys
Men saw the stars at the edge of the sea
They thought great thoughts about liberty
Poets wrote down words that did fit
Writers wrote books
Thinkers thought about it
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
Many’s the road I have walked upon
Many’s the hour between dusk and dawn
Many’s the time
Many’s the mile
I see it all now
Through the eyes of a child
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
Lost dreams and found dreams
In America
In America
In America
And close your eyes
Leave it all for a while
Leave the world
And your worries behind
You will build on whatever is real
And wake up each day
To a new waking dream
Take it where you find it
Can’t leave it alone
You will find a purpose
To carry it on
Mainly when you find it
Your heart will be strong
About it
[Chorus]
Change, change come over
Change come over
Talkin’ about a change
Change, change
Change come over, now
Change, change, change come over
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I’m gonna walk down the street
Until I see
My shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
I see my light
See my light
See my shining light
