  • Really? Do you have no life, but to go around recording empty buildings????? Who cares.

  • Hi George. I just wanted to let you know that my brother died last night night. He was a big fan of yours. His namewas Anaken.

  • Whats going on with that?? Unfinished buildings abandoned??

  • we need to "flush the toilet" from time to time..cant keep shitting in the pot with out flushing the turds..

  • I was travelling through Greece in the

    90's, and it was hundreds of buildings/houses that were started, but never completed. This reminds me of that...very strange.

  • What strikes me is the similarity to MAYA CIV and POMPEII - people just vacate, leaving everyday belongings. Gone without a trace.

    The collapse of the Mayan civilization (the LARGEST MOST OPPULENT CITY ON EARTH) - it's upon us.

    Thnx for capturing it on film. The narration could be slightly smarter, but at least it's not in the way of the imagery.

  • "The narration could be slightly smarter, but at least it's not in the way of the imagery."...you could grab a camera and show everyone your narration perfection?...I love the fact that he wings it on the spot, much like I would. Of course I have no videos like this either, but I'm not nit picking other peoples videos either...

  • @mookixox: so agree with your comment. Half the comments I'm reading are about nitpicking his camera style/narration.

  • Don't fear the end brother man, as the end is only the begining. The economy is being torn down because it did not work, it never did. What arises from the ashes will be stronger better made up of less junk. Remember heaven and earth in the rapture become one at the end keep that in mind. Love your work brother, keep it up.

  • Good Video! Amazing to watch. I lived in Granada HIlls from 2004 to Octobver 2005. I such thing are different their now.

  • Unbelievable. I like the part where they "just left" their office stuff hanging around.

  • were are assisting live of the decline of an empire. U.S.A will be losing very soon its superpower status to the profit of some other continent, probably Asia, its a sad case of wanting to rule the world and putting more money in the military than its own economy, if the goverment would divide its dept, it would 488.000.00$ per household thanks to Regan, Bush Senior,Clinton and Bush Junior, you guys been robbed blind by your goverment, rebellion is next!?!?

  • Thanks for this video George. We're seeing bits and piece of this up here in Boston. Tweeter Audio, of course Computer City, many small places...just **poof** gone! It's creepy.

  • Starbucks: One customer per hour after 7pm, two emp's on staff till 11pm. Idiocy.

    Office Max: 7 empl's on duty, one working stocking shelves. Me the ONLY customer in the store. Every time i go in, day or night. Lunacy. Luna-see.  Lunar, c?

  • So basically all us here typing are hell bound.

  • I've been buying up construction equipment from bankrupt general contractors. Talking with them as to why they are selling: Banks pulled funding so the GC's pulled their equipment, and are cutting their losses. FACT.

  • eerie

  • Ontario Mills is huge!! Our hundreds of new warehouses and retail buildings here in the IE are empty now all at once also! Thanks for your hard work! l,p

  • Great Video George, thanks for sharing it .

  • Keep on posting this stuff we need to get the word out areas that are not this bad will get this bad it is just a matter of time!

  • What a waste of resources and materials. Firewood indeed. Those computers and printers left behind are weird. Someone should just pull them out and at least donate them to charity!

  • The Copiers and printers are probably leased and they are waiting for the leasing company to pick them up. Those companies usually have warehouses full of stuff and then they sell them back to dealers to resell. Problem is office equipment leasing companies are up to their necks in returned leases. Good stuff George. I just discovered you and am watching your vids. Check out Manoftruth and you can cut to the chase.

  • sbb802- As opposed to what CNBC does now you mean?

    CNBC reporter- 'Mr Wall St stock shill salesman, what stocks look good to you for retail dummies to 'invest' in? For the long term of course...

    'Well MY stocks I just bought of course look quite good! LOL, snoogins.

  • Ghastly

  • Great report, you are the best.  Thanks

  • Am I the only one who laughs at people who quote scripture in discussions about the fucking economy? Imagine if they did that on CNBC.

    Reporter - "...And to tell us what we can expect the economy to do this quarter, we have our bible expert here. "

  • Fuck you George you gay half breed internet pan handler.

  • give it up...

  • That is some serious vacancy. The national media is busy telling America all of the government stimulus is about to fix everything. Just look at the stock market, fools. Well you're all seeing the next title wave of government bailout. The commercial real estate bomb is coming to a bank near you. I wont be surprised when the fires, tagging and vandalism hit those places.

  • I see this all over the place in California. Lots cleared, construction started and then abandoned. I hope, at least, it's giving the homeless people some shelter.

  • Are any stores still open at the Ontario Mills?

  • Yeah NY increased spending by 9% in its budget. In these economic times this is foolish and down right criminal. They plan to raise more taxes and fees. 20% of our cell bill is tax but they want to increase that again. We will be seeing the rapture type thing in NY as more people will simply disappear to other states.

  • Even here in Houston we have building projects that were started and abandoned, like we always have.

    But we've also had building projects continue, & now that the economy is turning around more building is going up.

    But it has to really suck big time to be a Southern California resident or Michigan resident as I don't see much going on there.

  • lots of rapture going on. thats hillarious.

  • once again nice vid george i like your DIY style

  • Great work Patriot keep up the good work

  • well dude, you should know that jesus has already returned and his identity is titus flavius the roman emperor who destroyed the jewish temple in 66AD. i'm not kidding. look up "joseph atwill" on youtube.

    anyway, back to the video, this collapse is happening because americanism war propaganda is inherently unstable.

  • I believe the Ontario Mall had 200 stores.

    Now I can understand the Direct Outlet stores may be closed as they were never a good idea in the first place & have closed all over the country.

    But how many of the 200 stores in the Ontario Mall are still open?

  • Yeah its the "RAPTURE"

    Jesus is coming....how overly dramatic.

  • I'm using sarcasm geez

  • p.s. I wouldn't suggest burnin' plywood in your woodstove..

  • why's that?

  • My guess would be that plywood might be chemically treated. I've heard that pressure treated wood and railroad ties often are.

  • wow, who starts a project w/o 100% financing..?  priorities..?

  • A lot of construction projects have tiers (3) for financing...they got blown out in the 2nd or 3rd stage

  • screw KB homes they got whats coming to them. I remember looking at some of their houses. They were overly inflated like many. The greed mongers have met their end and this is just the beginning. I sold my house in august of 07 and currently rent. I made 250k in 5 years, now the house has lost 45% of its value since I sold it. Poor bastards who bought it. The buyers made it a difficult escrow so I can say they got what was coming to them. I guess they thought they were smarter than MUAW!

  • yeah the greed was unbelieveable but the easy money supplied by the fed

  • KB bought out a big home builder about 6 years ago but closed up shop and left Indiana last year.

    Bye Bye KB Homes.

  • my friend is hiding in Austrailia right now as an illegal immigrant...

  • kb, kb what happend? did we have the rapture?........idono lol

  • lol

  • George reports the real truth, the government and media report the propoganda!

  • Get ready for a government induced Avian Bird Flu outbreak in 2010.

  • thats a little creepy..

  • I did feel a ghost go thru me a couple times

  • are firearms leagal in australia?

  • apparently they are. But you have to keep them in a gun safe! (metal lockup)

  • They are heavily restricted.

    You must obtain a firearms license, and there are different classes which apply for different firearms.

  • Scary Shit, You've thoght about moving, so why not move your family now, settle themselves in Australia or NZ to set up where you could go once covering all this shit-fan stuff gets worse. Maybe you won't have a chance later...

  • SICK

  • funny thing .. they leave the signs up and the biz are log gone.. take a drive up the 5 wy from OC to LA

    APPROX 40% OF THE BUILDINGS ARE FOR LEASE

  • You are too much consumed all of these years.

    In the credit or not is not important.

    I was 3 years when the Soviet Union collapsed. (I from Ukraine) The Great Depression year of 1929, nothing compared to what people experienced in Russia, Ukraine and other republics. I wore old things, candy or chocolate was a great joy. Millions of people are simple died. And all this was not without the help of the US Government, but still, I wish you that you do not have that.

    Thank for all, George!

  • WE NEED MULDER AND SCULLY!!

  • nice one

  • California is especially screwed....

  • MAn...it is eerie.

  • you said it

  • "they just left"...... Rapture?

  • Interesting... but maybe these projects are on hold.

  • Hey George. An update from TX. It seems nearly everywhere is having deep sales, 20%-70% off, or two for one deals. Some places are having store closures as well.

    I think San Antonio is maybe 6 months behind southern CA. But things arent looking good over here either. Some little places are hiring, like cheap restaurants. Places that offer bigger bang for the buck are doing ok. The last gun show was sorta weak. Get what you can, while you can!

  • stock up if you can prepare mentally

  • What can I say George you are doing an outstanding job of reporting what is really happening in our society.

  • wish I could do more - I have a kick ass story to do in phoenix but having trouble raising the gas money

  • They got this place going up in New Jersey called Xanadu and it is probably going to be a huge bust come this Summer. I can't wait to see what happens. I fear the worst for them.

  • Your stories have really improved over the last month - nice job. Out of curiosity what are the businesses in that shopping center that are still in business? Also be interesting to note over the coming months which additional places close - any rhyme or reason to it (ie grocery store closes last... ?) You should do a follow up on this.

  • goergei you gettin fat!!

  • Yea???and you are a LARD ASS!

  • watch?v=9kueSUDl6VA this is george4title lol-lol-lol-lol

  • George excellent video, thanks for the real news, love your videos. Blessings.

  • Maybe they were Raptured into the "Bailout". You can't receive any bailout funds, in many cases if you still have a strong revenue stream.

  • Gerald Celente warned us about this, wake up America!!!!!!

  • That half-constructed building looks like a fun place to play for a kid, but too bad there's a fence around it. On weekends, I used to play at house construction sites when I was a kid. As for all those empty offices, I'm surprised no one has stolen all that furniture an office equipment. All that stuff is certainly worth something.

  • someone seen they left and prolly stole the pot.

  • ya we have had some that look like that for years now that kinda scary that they just up and walk out one day its like well were closing just get what you can get and get out

  • It's like what Jet Li said "Free Country, free cars" except, you know, free office supplies.

    Poor Georgio. You know here in Syracuse, the Shopping Town Mall on Erie Blvd looks like that, and it has for over 10 years, just empty stores with nothing but a few things like TVs and chairs.

  • looks like the rats are leaving their homes

  • they took the flower pots to grow potatoes in....or pot....

  • We had the same kind of deserted buildings & houses back in the Reagan Era only worse. We recovered from that & so we can recover from this as well.

    Sure I know it must suck to be in Southern California & Michigan, but even in those hell-holes there can be recovery.

  • When foreign and sovereign funds start selling your bonds you will have to make cut backs in spending.

  • imho... deflation will be a result of the transition from a credit(debt) based economy to an economy where individuals and companies will have to save more cash before they can spend more. Government operations will be financed by increased taxes and printing money and cut backs. Increased saving implies less money in the economy which implies lower prices.

  • cut backs?

    You ARE joking, right?

  • Deflation not inflation. You will have deflation for years.

  • hyperinflation

  • >Deflation not inflation. You will have deflation for years.

    Tell me, if you can, how the government is going to finance all its operations in a deflationary depression?

  • I knew you were snapping out of those Illuminati blues when you made that vid with the Matrix tune...laughing at the Market Fall . So that was the beginning of getting your mojo back that those Fat Bastards on Wall St. stole from ... many of us. Keep up the good work. As the song by Wet Willie goes Keep on Smiling.

  • lol raptures

  • By the way George, I really must complement you on your I don't know what to call it... perhaps mojo. When I first encountered your channel almost a year a go you were doing vids in the bathroom with a crew cut. I had to do something so I tried to make you laugh and I hope you are still laughing. Best way to beat the Bastards with our money.

  • there are so many Cali vehicle tags here in tennessee.. i dint realize it was that bad in Cali......Must be a mad Exodus

  • the rapture, ha! that's funny ;0

  • probably a boiler room for wall street derivatives!

  • Did They Just run Out of Money: Yes.

    Only Consolation, If You Play Your Cards Right Over the Next 9 Months, You May Survive the Enormity of Change for Both Good and Bad.

    Remember that George was Once in a Very Low Place, Endured Lots of Criticism Regarding Dropping all Bills, etc.

    Look Where He is Now.

    May George's Star Only Rise.

    We Send Love and the Collective Strength to Keep Walking and Reporting.

    Peace,

    Easter, 2009

  • im dropping my bills. fukc 'em. they'll never take me alive...

  • they paid up the ass for the land:: thats for sure.

  • The Rapture ! Where malls go to die.

  • Rapture!

  • There's a lot of new construction for businesses that stopped midway here in Orlando, FL. It makes me wonder why these rich assholes didn't know things were gonna be bad.

  • I'm Impressed George. This is Highly entertaining and addictive to watch. I Wish the Video was longer.

  • Wow , Everything closing down 1 by 1

    Thanks George , Great Reporting !

  • Great place to take over if you are made homeless. Good growing spaces, plenty of accomodation.

    Why waste all that investment. What an oppertunity! With the number of homeless, the empty real estate and housing, the solution is obvious, but only if you can remove the grip of the globalist bankers.

  • soooooooooo true

  • Comment removed

  • man i could use some of that wood!!!!

  • what is so amazing is that millions of people are still sleeping. Investing in the stock market instead of food and water.

  • sad sad state of affairs

  • i think a passerby took the pot......why would they take the pot but leave all the furniture and computers inside....doesnt make sense !

  • George, I must say...You have been the best reporter in the closing of businesses and housing defaults on the news. Fox should hire you to do some free lance work. Thanks for your contributions...

  • keep up the good reporting george.. thanks..

  • I think it'll start getting real when people start breaking into these places and stealing that stuff to pay for their rent or basic necessities. This is just the beginning. California is going to start getting really scary when times start getting tough. Election night we were really walking on some egg shells. I think the young people in this country were at a boiling point. Now it has receded below the surface a bit.

  • Thanks George for the video, can you do video about biggest shopping mall in your area and see what is the situation there,

    Thanks

  • marekd.....I think this was the big shopping mall for his area....

  • alot of empty commercial space around here too. businesses closing all over. Just saw a new one today - Boater's World - going out of business sale 70% off everything in store including fixtures must go.

    many strip malls have more vacancies than open shops

  • Great comment about the Raputure George. That is about the most your EVER see of the 19th century American made up Rapture story, that millions of Evangelicals in the US take as fact.

    But, sadly its a fantasy story made up in 1850 and put in the Scofield Study Bible in America where then American Pastor with their brilliant brains thought that if this translation study guide is put in the Scofield Study Bible, it must be truth.

    How do I know this? I went to Graduate School and studied this.

  • The word Rapture comes from the Latin "Raptura". Read the Latin Bible in 1 Thes 4. That is where the word Rapture "caught up" is from.

  • Right, but show me where WHERE in the bible it specifically says believers will be Rapurted at the start of the seven year tribulation before the anti-Christ appears?

    Evangelicals totally take out of context a verse in Revelation where the Apostle John was in a vision to see the things that were to take place. This verse has nothing to do with Christians being mysteriously raptured out of the earth leavign behind unbelievers. Its a made up fantasy that Evangelicals preach today made up in 1850

  • I will give you one because of space. We know that the AntiChrist will come into play at the 7 year tribulation. Read 2 Thessalonians 2:7-8 specifically "only He who now restrains will do so until He is taken out of the way..." So the AntiChrist will not appear until the "He" who is restraining is removed. So the question would be who is "He"? I believe it is the Holy Spirit/Church. Now does this make me believe everything is rosy for us? No! We may see tough times ahead.

  • "Its a made up fantasy that Evangelicals preach today made up in 1850"

    Correct, even the book of Daniel tells us the Unholy Roman Empire will make war against the Saints of the Most High.

    And my question to all you rapture believers, when your preachers were preaching Materialism and our MILITARY WAS DESTROYING ORTHODOX CHRISTIANS FOR THE VATICAN AND NOW ATTACKING ISLAM WHERE ARE YOU? Stop going to these churches and fight the Roman Empire and the Vatican, NOW YOU KNOW.

  • Yes, I know that you're Crazy!

  • "Yes, I know that you're Crazy!"

    Well thank you, i am in with good company, Malcolm X, Socrates, Yeshua and the Prophets.

    And Madam, would you like the 100% Proof the Vatican runs this country?

  • is the Rainforest Cafe still there? I helped open in in 1998. The mall area was just picking up steam then.

  • Fun place....lived in Riverside county in the late 90's. Lost my babe in the food court, Ontario Mills, on a holiday weekend...what a scare. That place is enormous.

  • Where I live. Brand new strip malls have been sitting vacant for almost a year now (to the best of my knowledge). I saw a Fresh and Easy go up, doors open, then black drapes went up covering all the windows about a month later.

  • I should film what my town is turning into. Same thing here. Retail stores are dying left and right. All of our strip malls have at least half of the spots vacant. I have seen probably 5 different businesses open within the last 6 months and already close. One strange thing is the TYPE of businesses that seem to be opening. 99% of them are clearly going to fail... like a new "mom and pop" gym... wth were those people thinking lol

  • Where did everybody go?

    Canada?

  • WOW! Again, wow.

  • Honestly as tempting as it is, I hope people don't start trying to steal that stuff. A riot is just a probable cause for police (state) brutality, look at what happened during Katrina.

  • "Ghost Malls", Gerald Celente prediction from 2008

    Business just leave the crap for the landlords to deal with. Some strip it out like a forclosure, but most just take off. In Phoenix there are entire multi story office buildings that sit vacant, and some insurance company or REIT has a worthless, money pit that the city keeps taxing. Malinvestment is a bitch, when the bubble bursts.

  • Move to the south.

  • you must live in a bad area its not like this anywhere ive been

  • No, its not a bad area. This is an accurate description of the collapse of retail real estate. This is a high traffic area with high population density. P.S. if you want people to take you seriously lose the bandana and joint from your Avatar picture.

  • an entire stripmall is abandoned? In LA?? WTF?!

  • The mall in Ketchikan is pretty dead, too.

  • george all you need is some tumbleweed blowing thru and you have old tuscon.

    good job. im glad it doesnt look like that here.

  • That was great George, The Rapture. You know, The Inland Empire has never looked so good! Keep the great videos coming my friend. By the way..............What does Montaclair Plaza look like?

  • When the riots start, we expect George to right out there showing us how to get hit by a rock. Just kidding.... Going beyond the numbers, this is prove positive of the result. Seeing helps one believe it. If only the media was honest.

  • I'm just waiting for a zombie to jump out at you.

    If a window gets broken everything inside the place will be for anyone who decides to take the stuff.

    Thanks for the video George.

  • Great reports George, you are better than 90% of those on TV.

  • Dang, and i got left behind : (

    this is all just the beginning when it really spirals down, we wont have George to keep us updated or even internet. Its not to late for anyone to find Jesus, He is the light and will show us the way. Thanx George for more great footage!

  • George a Google search on "What Happened to Ontario Mills" might give you some insight (if you want some on this subject). There is a post by someone on the subject back in July 08

  • Hey George when I lived in Fl. I bought a 4 Season Salute pass to Disney. I enjoyed going there on days off. Then, little by little the Pixie Dust started wearing off. They even made the Pirates of the Carribean politically correct. Snow White was suspended because she caught telling Pinocchio to lie on several heated occasions !

  • sad but true ... i'm passing thru this beautiful jersey shore beach town ,.. point pleasant beach ... it appears like Every 5th or 6th house is up 4 sale ~ *

  • lol @ the rapture everyone just disappeared!!

  • It is time to take the Central Banks and the ring of banks around them out of Privatization and into Public ownership. Nationalize the banks, Axe the debt accumulated in Interest, and make every person in the country an equal shareholder. That is the solution! It is time to take the power away from the few extremely wealthy and give it to the people, where it really belongs.

  • Just keep buying gold, and stfu. If you can't your just doomed.

  • Scary

  • that means that Disneyland is F%cked

  • actually have a year pass to disneyland - very worthwile if you can ea outside - it's been packed - escapism?

  • everywhere it's the same in Cali.

  • Another high quality informative video George, with your personal touch. Say, can you remember Bush telling all the crassly consuming Americans to take their family to Disney? This isn't a rapture vid. It's Planet of the Apes...find Statue of Liberty.

  • lol -

  • Whoa!

    Greetings from France.

    They have no idea what is going on in the U.S., really.

    Things are slowing down here . . .

  • very sad...while America is dying, Obama

    is making globalist deals to take more, and further redistribute our "wealth"...moron!

  • Yeah, you can only redistribute poverty though :(

  • Many years ago, I lived and grew up in Ontario, California. .Some of the area which Ontario Mills occupies used to be the Ontario Motor Speedway. What a shame it was bull dozed down to make way for the shopping mall and other buildings. :( We kids used to walk over there and watch the drag strip racing and the time trials for the Indy 500. Just a few years ago, my family visited my Aunt Markie in Montclair and her friend Ken and I went to the Ontario Mills Shopping center to visit and shop,

  • Wake up california is becoming detroit fast. Try seeking outside small towns and cities because it might fare better then big business will in large urban area's of california. The thing is the government created this mess with mortage arm loans. So it's time to be trendy and slim down your needs go some where there is stability. Hey just get out of california and your living cost is down to earth with reality. Calfornia is hype or hot air so leave come visit like the other 90 perent do.

  • actually the outlying areas are getting hit the hardest economically in a weird way...the LA core is actually doing better?

  • Great video, gives a look & feel of the street, of what's happening... that office etc. All that wood man, would be gone in no-time in some of the colder European countries of the east.

    Abandoned construction sites by the way, is something you'd see all over southern Europe, especially Spain. It's unbelievable. They built all kinds of nonsense until the bubble busted and now you have half-finished ghost towns standing around.

    Thanks for the news from across the Atlantic, George.

  • George, I don't know why you removed your last video. 0o? Whether it was controversial and/or just a group of kids out partying, sowing their wild oats. Consider the area and also the harsh economic times we are all in

    And again, as the days,weeks, months follow...the poor and homeless will grow.

    There will be both solo and groups of Urban Survivalists roving out at all times for food,shelter, items and money. And whether young, middle aged, or old..or even mixed age groups. A Traveler

  • yeah i posted it to my other channel - i took a 2nd look and it was sensationalist bs - just kids beating up other kids

  • Okay, thanks, :)

    Kids beating up other kids.

    Kids causing mischief and sowing their wild oats. But I sure hate to cross their path or encounter them. :/ Just imagine when more people become Urban Survivalists. And people with their families of kids and teenagers. :/

    Again, it will be a necessity to form groups, gangs, and other associations for survival.

  • yeah many stories form the homeless about "kids" beating them and taking their stuff...cops are feared the most

  • The way they left the buildings you can tell they were not happy about leaving.

    What are you doing in Ontario George?

    That area is one of my old stomping grounds, Montclair, Upland, ect

    The Montclair theater was on of my first jobs, wonder if they tore that down,

    BTW lots of UFO's around there look up in the sky once and awhile, In the daytime they look like moving stars, I took photos of a lange fleet an "armada" while driving up mountain ave towards Mt. Baldy.

  • cool - yeah the mills is pretty cool to walk around with the kids

  • Thanks G, my area looks like this as well.

    You are having a great hair day too! LOL
