When will words finally matter?

In my whole life I have never seen the political rhetoric at the current levels.  Each time Trump farts, 5 liberals and a couple of evidence-free whistle blowers jump up to accuse him of something.  No matter the charge, its always an impeachable offense in the eyes dems.  And now in response we have Trump suggesting that Pelosi may be guilty of treason.

These are not small words from either side.  Both sides of the accusations could easily result in jail time if whatever monkey court processes are left in this country decided to follow through and prosecute.  Jail time is the ONLY thing that elite fear.

There is a reason for all of this.  None of it is random.  The sicker the Global Debt Ponzi becomes and the closer it comes to breaking down, the louder and more vicious all of this will become.  They are just fighting for who will be in control when the USA finally begins to look like Argentina.  They are fighting to see who will be in control when the US government collapses.

And it will collapse one day because it is completely dependent upon debt to keep its current appearance.  I think very, very few people really understand the gravity of this for Americans.  We are used to looking down our collective noses at countries all around the world, from South America to Africa and Middle East to Asia and Europe when their debt laden countries collapse.  We watched Zimbabwe, Argentina and Venezuela and said, "What a backward people.  That could never happen here.".  We scoffed at Bosnian ethnic cleansing and said, "What a primitive, violent people.  That could never happen in the USA".  We smiled as Japan collapsed and outright laughed as Russia took a dirt nap in the 1990s.

All this time the US has been hardly touched by bad times.  It was like we had a protective shit shield to hide behind while the ROW (Rest Of World) rose and fell.  And the truth is, we did have a protective shield.  We call it the dollar.  When others would get into economic trouble it would result in civil and political upheaval but here in the US we would just take out more national debt and shower it down upon the people in order to appease them.  After all, a close analysis of any political problem reveals it to simply be an economic problem.  If you give the herd free shit, it calms down.

Well the days of the US giving more free shit are about over. Not because they want the party to stop but because they have no choice.  Look at the latest headlines, GE freezes pensions for 20000 employees.  What does that mean "freezes"?  Well, its the first step to canceling them.  Right now it only affects current employees; they will no longer accrue benefits.  This will never "thaw".  Pension programs of all kinds are going away with GE being nothing more than a microcosm of the government.  I think GE will eventually default on its pension program because the company will BK.  It is nothing more than a vendor finance scam wrapped up in fake crony capitalism.

The death of GE will be mourned by many and it will certainly hurt, but it has to happen (and a lot more like it) before the US can regain its direction and start doing things properly again.  The deep state and the military industrial complex must collapse before we can right this ship.  That could take decades unless there is civil war to speed it along.  Maybe at some point all these words being thrown about will turn into action and we will see that civil war sooner than people think is possible.

Perhaps not coincidentally, Juan Perón and Peronism have been coming up lately. However, I have always heard of them as applying to every other leader or country, except Trump or America. Which only makes it harder to state the obvious: look no further than the White House to find echoes of both. I know it, I was alive when Perón died. Heck, Ivanka could even pass as Evita, in both appearance and role!
