The BRICS are the future. Although Russia and China are shrinking demographically, they are nuclear powers and Russia has lots of natural resources. India will be the most populous country and Indonesia has a growing population. Europe tried to fix their shrinking populations with third world immigration but these immigrants don't assimilate and have imported their backward ways to Europe. Here at home in America we are becoming an Idiocracy where we don't teach kids to think or create but we indoctrinate them into being mediocre at best. We elect self serving leaders who serve the rich powerful elites at our expense. Every presidential election cycle brings in worse and worse candidates. I will vote for Trump as the lesser of two evils and that he is mor elikely to stand up to the rich elites but they control the press so it is a losing battle.

Here's your losing battle: A buddy of mine died recently. He had three kids. He had ONE grandchild. White birth rate now at 1.4. Sayonara, as they say in Japan. Best always. PM

Yes, an ageing population and slowing birth-rate will create significant issues in the fairly near future Paul. Not just for whitey's though it would appears. Statistics I've seen state that Africa is the only continent currently replacing itself, despite the fact that the population world-wide continues to grow. Can't see that being tolerated for too long

Europe didn't try to fix their shrinking population. They are trying to eliminate it with foreigners being one main tenant of that elimination.

Yes, and the US planned funded and mechanized foray into the Kursk region has taken negotiated settlement off the table for now… Nazis tried that before and it didn’t work out too well for them. I’m pretty sure it won’t work out too well for them this time either.

The globalist ba$t@-ds who are the perps behind the giant global catastrophe they have created are cowards, all of them. They don’t want 1984. They want Brave New World. If vilolence is involved they want an App for it, they want remote control, as in Ukraine. They are precisely the opposite of the Ghengis Khans, the Alexanders, the Napoleons of history. They love anonymity and they love death by legerdemain, by mind control, by the use of other peoples money(the ones they would eliminate) and by clever and large scale psychological operations. They are truly disgusting human beings. I’ll take Napoleon any day.

The formation of a entity comprising a batch of mostly autocratic countries is not now worrisome. Perhaps when the squabble over who will lead it is settled, then it may become a source of worry.

For now, it strikes me that BRICS is just a repudiation of democracy and US leadership. Not a reason for war but certainly a reason to be sad for citizens of BRIC nations

China, whose communist party has more security officers than China's army, navy and air force, knows how to control its citizens.

Hi Jimm,

"The formation of a entity comprising a batch of mostly autocratic countries is not now worrisome."

Wut? Typical lefty thinking. Deflect, Deny, Ignore.

Will it be time to "worry" when they release a currency backed by Gold and Commodities, easily supplanting the worthless US Dollar as the WRC? Should we worry then, or just maintain that the correct use of every mentally-ill idiot's pronouns continue to be our main concern?

We do agree to some extent, Mr. Roberts. BRICS is not an 𝙚𝙭𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙚𝙣𝙩𝙞𝙖𝙡 threat, but it is still a 𝙡𝙤𝙤𝙢𝙞𝙣𝙜 threat. We could probably begin reversing many existing fiscal policies and instituting new, austere ones to make a play at keeping our money as the WRC, but there is 𝗡𝗢 bravery or intestinal fortitude among any of our "politicians" (Trump included) to implement the "severe" measures that would be required to be successful.

So maybe you're right - let's just keep prancing along like "Mr." Walz, whistling while everything that makes us what we are, supports our dreams and our children's future catches fire and burns to the ground...

PS - We also agree that China DOES know how to control its citizens, to the Nth degree. So I'm interested to hear how a left-leaner like yourself can explain how upwards of 100,000 military-aged men have been able to miraculously leave China, gain transport and walk across our Southern "border", only to then disappear into the interior. If this is NOT an invasion and the immigration "policies" of your team are the correct way to go, I'd love to hear you explain how that has happened...

Hi SE

I commented this two days ago. Maybe worthwhile to risk an eye:

On the Idea that Brics will create and be some sort of alternative and the allegation that China and Russia form an antipode to the West and it's dominator US I like to introduce you to one of my literally heros who helped me become awake about Money, currency and especially money creation:

Professor Richard A. Werner.

Do your Research, my strong recommendation right now is a recent talk with Kim Iversen.

August 8th

For good reason you find it on Rumble.

Enjoy

BRICS is just a repudiation of democracy? Where is this Democracy of which you speak? Most leaders of our NATO allies like Macron and Sholtz have very little support among their subjects. As far as the US goes we get to choose every 4 years between the lessor of two evils. Even our CONgress is controlled by special interst groups like AIPAC and the MIC. Perhaps BRICS is just a reaction to our attempts to maintain our dominance with sanctions and color revolutions. What if other countries had the powers to sanction us for invading Iraq, Libya, Syria, etc like we sanctioned Russia for invading Ukraine?

It might also be a well deserved repudiation of the dollar.

The American prole can experience with all his senses how bad his elected has, does, and therefore will enslave him. BB ( the cabal ) ensures he gets to vote every 2 and 4 years. The cabal put out opposing candidates and opposing tripe so the prole feels involved. The cabal has turned the prole into a stupid, manageable, unquestioning, servile, insecure, submissive, gullible, ignorant slave. We all know "you can't fix stupid!" It is over. Find something else to do. So long as the cabal lets you do it while they will do as they wish. There is nothing they do not control. Don't forget to vote; they do allow that.

Dear Luc,

this gentleman is in fact capable to explain a major crisis like the Japanese Bubble of the 1990ies in three sentences and in another three sketching the solution. One of the few economists I would label as Scientists.

Thank you for making so many posts that we are allowed to share. Social media only allows the elite narrative. Many in the public must have these issues highlighted before they recognize the threats they face.

Well, we could solve the world's problems easily by attaching a ball and chain to the elites and Davos crowd by putting them in a public library where they could play God on a computer monitor that only has Google Earth. That way they could use the mouse to both shake up the world and satisfy their God complex at the same time.

Hi James,

I paid for a subscription to your Substack in July or August and it has been great.

But I just went to read your article of today and I am being blocked from reading the whole article on the App but not in the email itself.

Please can you get this fixed and email me when it is.

Many Thanks & Best Regards.

Brian

Question. Can someone tell me, is the gross mis-stating of employment statistics new? If we look at 2020, 2016, etc. do we see a similar pattern of government-produced self-serving bogus data, or is this a function of the current regime?

On the 2016 BLS yearly Fairy Tale I took a deep dive into, reading every single word and figure and yes the same scam.

Eyeopening the overview of the 10 deciles of yearly incomes.....

I’m uneasy about this constant ‘inflate or die’ claim. It seems to insinuate that we can survive long enough not to effect ‘us’ and be dammed with the rest. If we stop inflating ‘now’ the economy as it is will surely die but a new one will emerge - if on the other hand we continue to inflate we could be talking about the complete disintegration of the West.

We do appear to be sleepwalking into an Orwellian nightmare but it’s another book that springs to my mind - Piers Brendon’s brilliant ‘The dark valley - a panorama of the 1930’s’.

Commodities are extremely low vs. stocks on a 20 year trend. Gold is very high vs other commodities including oil. I’ve been buying commodity ETFs
