The crash, the Big One, is inevitable, the question is only how many cruelties and crimes more by states and central banks will precede it.


And mind you, paper money was politically wanted. The guilty ones are polticians. In 1914 and the early 70s, they wanted to pay for their upcoming or running wars that with a robust real currency worth the name "money" would have been impossible to be fought to the end.



Another major guolt factor I have mentione dseverla times as well as Krall above now does: the separation of ownership and responsibility. Managers today are allowed to jump around as they wish, playing their self-enrichment game with money that is not theirs and so they can play without own risk - while the possible gains from a winnign situation they happily proclaim as "theirs". Its a simple fact of life that you care the more for somethign that indeed is yours and that you plan t hand ovr to the next generation in your family, than you care for somethign that is not yours and to which you are not bound in any way. No risk is easier taken than the risk of the others.



Krall also mentions that the state order has become the prey of he corruption of the political parties and their selfish power interests that they put before the national and civil interest. I use to say that every democracy necessarily leads to socialism and leads necessarily to totalitarinaism - becasue sooner or later any socialist order must collapse and can only be enforced then any longer against the will of the people by brute force.



Historyholds many exmaples. The way the eU moves, i criticised that often enough, is towards dictatorial paternalism, and totalitarianism. Right becasue of the reason I here have repeated once again. The overboarding bureaucratization of business by every growing floods of rules and laws and demands for documentation, also illustrate it, so does the streamlining, nudging and manipulation by state-close mainstream media forming the population that polticians want to have: happy sheep that are easy to bribe with the stuff that has been stolen from them just a day before.


The crahs will come, it is inevitable. I only do not dare to nail down the date. Two weeks, three months, four years, i don't know. Could even become a Japanisation of thr situation and many more years of money erosion and plundering savings and punishing. The end will allways be the same: the biggest crash in the history of human civilizations. I would hope I am already dead when it happens. I have no interest at all to witness and live through it.


Thats why I keep my thigns and stuff together, have abandoned banks as far as possible, and live every day as enjoyable and responsible (not adding to the damage) as best as I can, as if it were my last day. Becasue the Big One will not come with long alarms and waiting periods, it instead will come suddenly, with a surprise. And it will be a good old friend: the same crisis that is cooking inside a pressure cooker since several decades already.
