Spoiler alert, it will last at least a few more years, possibly longer. Trump and his gestapo have made it clear that the US is closed for business as long as he's in charge. The next great depression is just getting started.

The more I live through it, the more I am buying into belief that history doesn’t repeat, but it sure as hell rhymes..

We are currently experiencing our own twist on the “Roaring ‘20s”, an not particularly looking forward to what the next next couple of decades will bring.

Oh, you wish.. things can still get a lot worse from here for a whole mess of us. There is still blood that the Top 0.1% have not yet squeezed from the stone.

Funnily enough, that popped up on my feed today also - I am not subscribed to that channel, nor have I seen any of his videos before today.

Gary Stevenson has a lot of kick-ass videos on the economy. I like this one about how to change things, in particular, but it is longer. Also, "Belle of the Ranch" has some of the best level headed factual news you won't hear on the MSM..

Nah, what we're experiencing is more in line with the early 1930s. In Germany.

Not yet - Hyperinflation hasn't yet started, but you're getting there.

"As long as he's in charge" and beyond. That orange clown proved the world that with the current political system in the US, no deal make sense. Every accord is useless, a visa means nothing. The first lunatic president can change the rules on a whim, it's not safe to do business or even to travel to the US. Even if the current dictator is overthrown by a smart and sane person, without changing deeply all the political system, everything can disappear at the next election.
