The truly horrifying aspect of this collapse is that was imposed, it was not the result of exogenous forces. The coronavirus is not causing the collapse, the response to it is. From Dr. Mark Sircus at lewrockwell.com:
It is not only the greatest it is also the fastest. The Covid-19 pandemic has brought death, pain and suffering around the world and is causing widespread economic and financial hardship. The global economy has screeched to a halt as governments enforced “stay at home” or “shutdown” orders. This has triggered an economic implosion, with a hundred million of newly unemployed around the world, of which over 30 million are in the United States. There is no doubt that the world faces a difficult future.
The really bad news is that
this is just the beginning.
Michael Snyder
Health officials have created the perfect economic, political, and social storm. A case has even been made that a medical coup d’état is what has happened and it is impacting the personal liberty and financial security and quality of life of everyone.
The greatest wealth transfer in history is being perpetrated
before our very eyes and we’re just watching it happen!
Chris Martenson
The really bad news is that we are facing the greatest civilization collapse in history. A collapse that will more than take our breath away, it will take hundreds of millions of lives away. Nothing from the past can compare for this is not a local event. It is a global catastrophe that few have the stomach to imagine yet we must plan for it the best we can. You better believe that the richest people in the world are well prepared.
