It's been a long year and I'm nearly finished writing a book that is largely based on current times, and it's certainly been a rabbit hole. Some of my findings have been rather peculiar, such as the Big Mac Index which suggests upwards of nearly 30% adjusted inflation when compared to the 1980s and the development of our ponzinomics in 1971.

It has been noted and more-than speculated that during the pandemic the markets have been artificially inflated by the federal reserve, which is extremely dangerous. Monetization of debt is one of the 3 hyperinflationary horsemen. Another of the hyperinflationary horsemen is a new rising power within the existing power structure, which happens to be the eastern communists. And finally, the deterioration of buying power in conjunction with a completely fabricated market and an internal lack of confidence in the economic system will create drastic upwards pressure throughout 2022, probably not any later than 2023. A Water Fututres Market ( https://www.cmegroup.com/trading/equity-index/us-index/nasdaq-veles-california-water-futures.html ) sounds like something from a dystopia, but it's here, and they're speculating on water now too. The federal reserve and the central bankers cannot manipulate the markets forever. The entire global economy is largely transacted against the USD, so what happens when it goes to zero? A global economic crisis of the likes recorded history has yet to see. Yet we squabble about Biden, and Trump, and try to absolve our liberties by supporting segregation of society via who did, and did not, receive a double medical procedure. [Vaccine.]

I see people squabbling and begging for even their most basic liberties to be stolen from them. I see people villainizing each other over democrat vs. republican, and it's an artificial divide defined by outlandishness like who's gay, who's not, and what someone's color is. Society is collapsing, has already collapsed, and the only thing you can do is save yourself is to buy gold, silver, or anything that hedges against inflation because the dollar is going to 0 - like every other currency that has existed.

Edit: Final thoughts.

The age of the megacorporation is here. The majority of the government's artificial stimulation of the market is going to the top 500 largest companies, particularly in the tech sector. In light of how deep the surveillance state goes, many of these companies like Facebook are also out of a dystopia. Top 5 companies on the S&P 500 make up nearly 25% of the entire market cap. Run the printers Jerome, until a loaf of bread is 30$, 50, 100, 1000! Let's go. And keep squabbling everyone.

Pumping a bunch of money into the economy like we did will devalue currency. A side effect of the Fed government making it rain so much during the acute phase of the pandemic. Equilibrium is kicking in like paradox in Mage: The Ascension.

Biggest losers in all time for going back on that promise. That would really unleash the economy.

Welcome to capitalism.

When it runs out of easy profit, it squeezes the workers to make up the difference.

We can run like 8% inflation for two years and we will be average of 2% since 2008.

Inflation happens. We've had it good for a while.

We really need to solve the supply chain issues though. But thats just capitalism. Hard to fix that.

I want just enough inflation that I can wheelbarrow a bunch of worthless sheets of paper to FedLoans and dump it on their doorstep and be free of debt.

Bread is the same cost it was at the begining of the pandemic. Stop buying overpriced bread with nothing of value in it.

Gl with your book sales though.
