Mish reports on the ever-darkening situation of the good people of Ukraine. It really pains me to read these things because the people are in big trouble with national bankruptcy, hyperinflation and civil war in progress with the new threat of starvation now on their doorstep. That is bad enough in and of itself but the real tragedy is that the people hold the keys to their own prison. The place they have been led to (i.e. the slaughterhouse) by dear puppet leaders was not their destiny. They simply allowed the con men to march them there without a fight. They gave up their right of self determination by failing in their responsibility to defend it at all costs. The individuals there hoped that if they could each just stay quiet and hang back that it would all pass and then they could come out again and enjoy prosperity that someone else sacrificed to achieve. I don't want to be sarcastic in the face of so much suffering but I have to ask those who think this is a workable strategy for the USA, how's it working for the people of Ukraine?
A herd that has been scattered and scared and intimidated by the predators is soon wiped out. The con men swept in early on and stole the national wealth of the country (i.e. its gold reserves) and then came back over time and stole the national emergency food reserves. The people trusted government and the government fleeced them. Never give a sucker an even break is alive and well in Kiev. The food stores were eaten by the army and/or sold for individual dear leader profit under cover of the fog of war. The leaders are traitors and the people are Markov and Patskies for listening to them.
So where did these people go wrong? How do we avoid a similar fate? Or are the Ukrainians just somehow genetically stupid and we are just so superior to them that OUR dear leaders won't do the same to us at the very first chance they get? I caution anyone who believes that people in one part of this world are much different that other people in another part of the world to rethink their position. The US has not had these kinds of problems because we are the eye of Horus on top of the pyramid scheme. We are the least marginal players in the great debt Ponzi. But at some point the top of the pyramid will collapse because the footings underneath have collapsed and it will be a long way to fall for Americans who think "that can never happen here".
Here is what the Ukrainian people SHOULD have done: instead of fighting for this lord and master or that one, both of who would treat the people as cattle (a commodity and a consumption item for the elite), just take up whatever arms you might have, even if it is the sling of David and a bag of rocks, and go surround the capital with 10,000 armed men and demand immediate surrender of the government. IF they don't come out with hands raised in 1 hour, level the whole complex - burn it to the ground - and kill anything that moves there. Yeah, I know, it sounds extreme but far fewer lives would be lost like this and those that would have been lost would have been the trouble makers while the lives which would have been spared would have been the innocent population.
Importantly, there is no soft landing for the collapse of a debt Ponzi! Someone has to lose!! It will either be the common man or it will be the elite. Nobody is going to win but there will be a clear loser. Standing there doing nothing and hoping for the impossible is childish and weak and cowardly. We the people of America hold the same keys to our own prison that the Ukrainians hold. Why let it get so bad before we the people wake up, self organize and retake control of our own country?? Once some critical triggers are tripped, an informed and aware herd will self-organize and take down the con men running their show. They will not just sit there like frogs in a pot of water on the stove while the heat is slowly turned up until they are boiled alive.
This is the lesson of Ukraine: together we survive and prosper, but divided we remain simply the best looking horse in the glue factory. This is not my opinion folks, it is the simple lesson of history.
It has already happened here. The history books refer to it, though masqueraded as something else, as the American Civil War: the bloodiest conflict, relative to the population, in human history. The lessons, already forgotten, are the same as those from Ukraine.
