  • If it where only that simple. Lotsa good points in here. Thanks for posting.

    So many more people now. People are totally dependant on the system in big urban citys. In that way a collapse could be so much worse then 80 years ago. When most of population lived in the country and had abilty to grow their own food..

  • @riseingstardust Glad you saw this. I am quite all over the place with various issues raised here and this was extemporaneous. My farmer family had their land seized from them by the govt so it did them no good, most of them, and the other half ran a saloon, a family place which brewed beer and Prohibition got them. People are just astonished when I tell them there are no food stamps in Farnce!

  • @slobomotion Favorited this Video. I feel here in America, Welfare will run out by 2022. Just a guess. Happy, I am doing ok. Peace

  • @RustArtRed I had contact with three different people in the American military who were on short pay in 2011 and I heard about a food stamp failure to deliver in Florida last year. The whole benefits thing is a teat people suck on and they give up on life, on initiative. I continue to have contact with people whose only income is food stamps. I don't know how they let themselves get into that situation. Many admit they should have planned better. Too late now!

  • @slobomotion I have never been on Welfare. There always Is a way out, thru hard work, and deep thinking. 

  • @RustArtRed Thank you! I feel really sorry for people on Welfare.

  • @slobomotion I look to you as a mentor, if you will accept this positive thought ?

  • @RustArtRed Why not? 

  • @slobomotion I am 36. 30 Years in New York City, now Rural Georgia.

  • @RustArtRed Whoah, big change!

  • @RustArtRed And I really enjoy your pleasant comments!

  • what you think abut world bankers who control the worlds economic

  • @g19hoops83 I have a video up called THE COLLAPE OF THE EURO which gets into this some. It may be on my other channel, however, which is CUTECATFAITH. I hope you follow me on Dailymotion. I put stuff over there I never dare to here.

  • The sidebar really makes this video.

    Well, my earliest memories are from the late 80s, and I can remember people living very tight through 1993, when there was a boom for about seven years. Almost from the moment 2000 hit, things started going down and there have been three official recessions. Somehow the 2004 recession is always ignored. I will never forget watching some crap entertainment show in 2006 and they were saying that pop music was back "because it's such a carefree time." BS.

  • @SunShine8308 Thanks, I often wonder if all the effort I put into the lowbars is worth it or not. 2000 was kind of the beginning of the end for my career, and 2003 was an all out low. We had a tremendous heat wave here in France, it was Dust Bowl time, people died (not elderly, that was misreported). I was working a few hours here and there in various cities and trying not to drop dead. We bugged out twice to no avail.

  • @slobomotion I can see why your perspective is different, having lived through worse times in Europe. I have read LOTS of data at this point, and lived through some, as my blog indicates, when I was there in 2005. In 2005, France and Germany were so low, probably a bit more stagnant than now, although Scandinavia was okay. 1994's data was the worst I can see (something like 11% unem. in France), so what an introduction you had that year.

  • @SunShine8308 It was insane for us to come over here in '94 and buy real estate, get married, start new lives (he was only 27). It took me 13 months to get any kind of a real job and I had to be abused for two years and do half the work undeclared, which could have gotten me deported! My health began to deteriorate -- carpal tunnel syndrome. Had to type a lot with no desk! No desk! And run out for diapers for their kids and then cook LUNCH at the office!

  • @slobomotion People should watch "MY FIRST JOB IN FRANCE, Part 1" to get a sense of all that you went through with the restaurant and all that.

  • @SunShine8308 Thanks, I forgot I even posted this!  Most of my output has never been online and I'm glad I got that uploaded. That was five or six weeks of hell. It all seems like a bad dream. I broke down and cried there and my Australian female boss had such an ashamed look on her face! It was also weird having her insist I wear bustiers and stare at my breasts. I like dykes but this was bizarre. Lotsa gay Disney ex employees there. Very sad!

  • I swear to God I had not known of this video's existence nor the description until AFTER I just sent that other video. How bizarre! I'm 15 seconds into this one and scared of the contents!

  • @SunShine8308 January is always a very non-functioning month for me but it's nearing its end and the early Spring birds are chirping (any sparrows?) so time for me to drag myself out of hibernation. Lots of synchonicity going on here, don't you find? Heaven knows what they'll do to me at that meeting this afternoon. As I look back on life in the USA, I realize most of it was utterly horrible and I don't know how to feel about that!!

  • I've lived all my life in Montreal, which was in a terrible depression from 1975 to 2000 (except for the late 80's when we had a "boom" where the official unemployment rate actually dipped below 10% for a few months). As I watch videos about the economy falling apart elsewhere (especially G4T's stuff from California), I get such a sense of déjà vu. Ironically I've never been so prosperous as these past few years, but I don`t know how long it will last...

  • @Ape65 Yes, my spouse was in love with Julie Doucet and spent time with her in Montreal, around 1989 I think. He described a city in distress and poverty. I went to Expo '67 and remember a city all gussied up for the world and I was astonished to hear this!  I worked in Toronto from 1980-82 and it was quite vibrant. I commuted from NYC which was very cheap then from Buffalo via People Express. It was about 20 bucks. Memories!

  • Early in my life I dreamed and planned for these days. Some think of it as an end to the good old days, but I see them as a time of liberation and healing. We spent 4 decades to get here. You have been a famous artist; I am still an unknown. I can quietly go into my community and avoid the pretenses. My work is fulfilling even when there is no incoming cash flow. I observe, and contemplate. There is so much beauty in the world but people haven't the time to see it. I take the time.

  • And when I point that out-- people ignore or reject me. Didn't Van Gough have a similar experience? People could not hear the profound beauty he placed right there in front of their faces.

  • @carefulcarpenter I wish you'd post more videos. They are so stunning. Avalon.

  • @carefulcarpenter I am an unknown famous artist! I remember thinking as a kid, my God, I am gonna see WWIII and it scared me. Probably I was and still am mental, but I kept wondering, why was I incarnated into this particular mess? I think the worst thing we face is ecological in nature. We sure have trashed the planet. Imagine growing up and seeing my river burn in Cleveland. yeow

  • @carefulcarpenter I get a huge amt of frustration from my French family because I have fat and lean years. It balances out to me pulling my weight and then some, but they have these civil servant blue collar mentalities. I think a lot of people, such as Americans, then later, French, are going to be really shocked when they see how long this depression goes on. I think we have about 17 years left.

  • Financially, I've seen only one good year in every ten. Spiritually, I live very well. Selfishness and greed have kept me working most of the time-- until the past two years. I did not enjoy the styles of the 70s. People work and bs to get their desires but when it comes to lifting finger for the staff-- forget it. My craft and my world view has set me free. I know love and fairly well know myself. Can't figure why others miss out; I think they prefer misery to personal prosperity.

  • The world is run by people with dark imaginations. Nature, on the other hand, is for those with bright imaginations. Don't see many who venture into the forest around me, but those who do-- have smiles in their hearts.

  • @carefulcarpenter Behind every successful man there is a woman.

  • @carefulcarpenter I just can't believe people don't generally listen to their elders. I did. Some of them were quite stupid people, really, many not very nice, but they were telling me about what they had experienced and did not seem to be lying. I considered it free information I ought to absorb. It was valid for them. I now realize, many of the stories I heard, they really minced their words and held back. But I got the gist of 'em.

  • Thomas Woods has a video detailing this depression posted on Mises Media.

  • @lizadfuel What is that? Is that beyond YouTube? Holy moley. Thanks for the response. I don't expect you to give me a direct link or anything, but should I approach this as a basic web search? Thanks for watching, and I like your username! My name is Lisa and I like lizards and my spouse calls me "LEEZUR" which is his French way of saying lizard. xo

  • @slobomotion Just YT of Google "Thomas Woods Depression 1920" and you will see his video. Also, you should see the link for Mises dot org with an article titled "The Forgotten Depression of 1920"

  • @lizadfuel Got it!! Thank you, it is fantastic! xo bless! yeow!

  • The depression of 1920 is well documented. The reason nothing was done IE QE/Bailouts was the de facto President - Elizabeth Wilson. She took the helm of the Presidency since her husband Woodrow Wilson was incapacitated by a stroke and was left unable to fulfill his duties as President. In order to hide this from the world they acted as if nothing happened and was still able to due his duties. She did nothing to solve it - She let the economy heal itself.

  • @lizadfuel Thank you so much! The wife of Harding was also interesting.  She basically ran our country during his illness. The daughter of a judge, her education was slim, so it was hard for her! THANK YOU THANK YOU this is just what I needed to watch and study more! I knew there was something out there and needed guidance. xo
