2026: "I'LL TELL YOU WHAT, MAYBE" - The Collapse Of The USA? |
| (03/26/2026) |
| COMMENT Bob Weaver 2026 This is one of hundreds conspiracy theories that will likely happen to the wobbly-kneed American democracy, which for decades has moved into a unannounced oligarchy, a country run by big money, with the national debt $39 trillion dollars, with the USA paying on the interest to keep the ship afloat. Now the war with Iran costs about $2 billion a day with the Pentagon asking congress for $200 billion new funding. I will spare the history of Americas ill-begotten wars in the past 75 years, but over and over the Military Industrial Complex got richer and richer under both of Americas two-parties. Few people will recall the Great Depression which lasted ten years, no jobs with poverty, hunger and death. The depression ended with WWII, where jobs abounded with money created for the Military Industrial Complex. Since we rarely never learn from history, few will remember the nation fell apart on ONE DAY in 1929 - the US Stock Market (Wall Street) collapsed. My historical friends, all smarter than me, believe it will likely happen again - quickly when it does. Another concern being the coming of Artificial Intelligence and robots impacting millions of jobs and the political division in the USA, almost reaching the dissent of the Civil War. What will happen first they would not say, the US defaulting on the $39 trillion national debt or Wall Street collapsing. Quickly following will be the collapse of the electric grid, the internet grid and the food grid, far worse than the Great Depression. My historical friends said only a miracle from God could prevent the collapse. Millions of people in urban areas will face chaos and death, but those living in the poverty of West Virginia, having been on the worst USA lists most of their lifetimes - there is good news for those who live in this great backwoods forest, we still know how to raise a turnip and kill a deer. I recall what my Grandfather John Ira McCoy said, "No way to make any money, but our kitchen table was piled high with food we raised. We never went hungry." Visiting a Tribal Chief in Alaska years ago, he said they had never heard about the Great Depression for several years, being subsistence fishers and gatherers. For years on the Hur Herald I have written,watching the sun rise over the mountain and said, "We live on the greatest place in the world." |
