Anarchistbanjo's World

Continuing my assessment of where we are at in our journey I’ve started to notice empty spaces at the grocery stores. I wrote about this before, but there is a bit more to add. Big retail chains like Target and Walmart have too much inventory that they can’t get rid of! But we increasingly need groceries, fuel and rent money. Those are still inflating and getting more expensive. But we are seeing the junk being marked down and this summer will be a great time to pick up odds and ends at bargain prices if you have the ready cash for it. . . The next phase in a few months is when you can’t find what you need anywhere!

I’m going to mention something that has not occurred to others yet, at least I haven’t seen this in any articles. China has been on lock down for almost a month because of C****. So they say. They just opened back up and then started to shut down again in other locations. What is really going on? There is speculation that China is switching over to a military economy based upon an audio recording of a secret meeting that was smuggled out.

But that is not even that important . . . think about this objectively. China is a massive producer of all kinds of things and we are the biggest buyer. If you look around your home how much of what you own is made in China? Probably most of it! And guess what? Most of those things are the junk that is cluttering Target and Walmart shelves that they need to get rid of! We don’t want that junk any more because we can’t afford it. We need food and fuel and we need to pay rent of house payments. None of those things come from China. The longer inflation exists, the longer we will not have any demand for these things because we won’t be able to afford them and neither will anyone else in the world except maybe Russia.

If and when China ever gets back to producing things again, there is not going to be a demand for them! They already know this because they are not stupid. So they are going to start producing other things, things that there is a demand for . . . perhaps war munitions and weapons? Bottom line is all the old stuff is no longer in demand so they won’t be producing that . . . just saying. They have two choices, produce goods for Russian consumption or produce weapons of war, or both?

Switching to the Ukraine-Russia war, have you noticed that the main stream media is beginning to report that Ukraine is not doing so well? In fact the whole United States/NATO vs Russia thing has not been going well at all. The sanctions have not worked and will not work. The Ukraine army is essentially destroyed and they have no hope of winning their country back. The world is beginning to realize this and they are beginning to realize that you don’t mess with Russia! Russia has already won this war on so many fronts that her victory is decisive and only a matter of time. The United States and NATO have now realized that they absolutely don’t want to tangle in a direct war with Russia and they are looking for a way out that will allow them to save face. This has really been a disaster for them.

What they are probably going to do is blame it all on Zelensky. Poland will end up with western Ukraine and Russia will end up with eastern Ukraine! Ukraine will probably no longer exist. Too much damage has been done by the United States insisting on Ukraine fighting to the last Ukrainian! Ukraine has been used and used badly by the United States and the EU and NATO. None of this should have ever happened, but the United States wanted its 43 biolabs in Ukraine and wanted missiles in Ukraine as well. That is why it helped overthrow the legit Ukraine government in a coup over fourteen years ago. That is why this thing has blown up now this year. Things have been boiling for many years under the surface.

The other countries of the world have also realized and are increasingly realizing that the United States is a fraud and very weak. So is NATO. They smell blood and are already beginning to turn on the United States and NATO and the EU. Turkey is openly challenging Greece for allowing US military bases on islands that it says must remain demilitarized. It is keeping military ships out of the Black Sea. Turkey is gradually aligning itself with Russia and in open confrontation with the United States and NATO. It is keeping Sweden and Finland from becoming NATO members! It is getting ready to go to war in Syria.

Russia was the first direct challenge to the hegemony of the United States, Turkey is the second. China sees this, sees the inability of the United States to deal effectively with these countries and is in the process of picking a fight with the United States over Taiwan. The United States is now trying to back off and avoid a conflict with China because it suddenly realizes that it can’t build any more weapons because Russia is the producer of rare metals like Titanium and other raw resources for building high tech electronic chips and equipment.

But China isn’t buying it! Both Russia and China have hypersonic missiles. The United States doesn’t. It won’t have them for a couple years yet. Now is the time to strike if they ever will! The United States is at its weakest ever financially and militarily. It is in a state of collapse and for China it is now or never! Russia has already won! I expect China to attack Taiwan in a matter of weeks . . .
