After economic collapse, comes barter, where people set up an alternative economy and trade what little they have left. Barter has its problems, such as finding someone willing to exchange the goods you want, for the goods you have, but beyond that, it is only sustainable for as long as the basic goods exist. Without new production, things will then go back to hunting and gathering.

“In the wake of socialist Venezuela’s massive hyperinflation, citizens have returned to the original monetary system in order to survive. While it is virtually impossible to visualize the inflationary trend in Venezuela, Bloomberg’s Cafe Con Leche index signals a roughly comparable level of 43,478%. More absurdly, annualizing the last three months of data, paints an even more dismal picture: inflation of 482,153%. Looking at just the past month, Reuters reports that June inflation accelerated to 128.4%, the fastest this year, from 110.1% in May, according to opposition legislator Angel Alvarado. Even more shocking, food prices rose by 183% in June. “It is by far the worst hyperinflation suffered by a Latin American country,” Alvarado said in an interview. The barter system is now prevalent in the collapsed economy of the authoritarian dictator, Nicolas Maduro.

     You have all heard those dreadful racist white people telling migrants to like it or go home. Don’t they always get taught a delicious lesson from the system, eh? Well, here is a twist of lemon to that old tale:
https://voiceofeurope.com/2018/07/muslim-party-leader-in-the-netherlands-tells-dutch-to-leave-their-country-if-they-dont-like-diversity/

“Tunahan Kuzu, the political leader of the DENK party in the Netherlands, has caused some serious controversy, Dutch broadcaster NOS reports. “If they don’t like a changing Netherlands in which people with different cultures live… like in the city of Zaandam or the neighbourhood of Poelenburg, they should get lost,” Kuzu says in an interview. Kuzu’s DENK party is a controversial party that is rapidly growing in Dutch urban areas. It especially performs well in areas with high Muslim populations, for example in western Amsterdam (Amsterdam Nieuw-West).’     Of course if European whites do not behave themselves, then the police are getting special training to deal with recalcitrant trouble makers who want to preserve what they think is a culture and people worth preserving:

The researcher said communities of cyber criminals exist where users boast of the unsuspecting people who they watch ‘for fun’ through hacked webcams.

     President Donald Trump has delivered a solid punch to the insane European cult of globalism and mass immigration and a multitude of other nationally suicidal things. Here is his politically incorrect shopping list:

•    Accused EU leaders of destroying its culture and identity by allowing in millions of migrants
•    Tore into London Mayor Sadiq Khan for not standing up to terrorists
•    Blamed Khan for spiralling crime in the capital
•    Insisted former Foreign Secretary Boris Johnson would make “a great Prime Minister”
•    Denied once branding Theresa May a “bossy schoolteacher”
•    Maintained he would keep ties with Russian tyrant Vladimir Putin despite the Salisbury Novichok poisonings
•    Demanded Britain and other Nato countries spend more on defence
•    Spoke of his sadness at feeling unwelcome in the capital by anti-Trump protesters
•    Claimed millions of Brits backed his policies
•    Told of his pride at taking wife Melania to meet the Queen

     As we all know, Trump’s proposed wall, which he never intends to build, has become the new Vietnam War symbol for a spoilt generation with too much time and money on their hands. Hollywood monsters and freaks,  arise to outdo themselves in poor acting to show fake  outrage, always looking to see how their performance goes down with their degenerate peers. But, who should pay attention to people who make money pretending to be somebody they are not? Isn’t that a paradigm case of mental illness?  For all of this sound and fury, especially from Mexico who consider it their divine right to conquer the United States by illegal immigration, Mexico is building its own wall:
https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-07-11-mexicos-new-left-wing-president-builds-a-wall-illegal-immigration.html

“No shortage of Mexican officials and citizens have also been critical of POTUS Trump’s promises to prosecute all illegal border crossers and to build a “big, beautiful fence” all along the U.S. southwest border. Mexico’s newly-elected president, Andrés Manuel López Obrador, or AMLO, was also critical of the border wall. Yet now he’s committed to building a virtual border wall, so to speak, along his country’s southern and northern borders. You can’t make this stuff up. In an interview with Bloomberg, AMLO’s incoming security chief, Alfonso Durazo, said he and his boss will be building a new border police force aimed at interdicting illegal immigrants from Central and South America that have long used Mexico as a land corridor to the United States. The idea is that the new force will act as a ‘wall’ to prevent illegal immigration, as well as drugs, weapons, and human trafficking into and through Mexico. “We’re going to create a border police force that will be highly specialized,” Durazo said in an interview. “They need to apply the law.” Yes, Left-wing America, even Mexico has laws against illegal immigration. Go figure.”

     The Catholic Church reads like a branch of the Department of Immigration and Multicultural Affairs, whatever it is called now. First, it was the Pope, now it is the entire structure of the Vatican clamouring for mass immigration to the West, unending.
  https://www.breitbart.com/national-security/2018/07/12/swedish-cardinal-pope-francis-has-prophetic-voice-on-immigration/

“Cardinal Anders Arborelius said in an interview Thursday that although many world leaders do not follow his advice, Pope Francis has a “prophetic voice” regarding immigration and many people are in fact listening to him. Speaking with Crux, a U.S.-based online Catholic website, the bishop of Stockholm said that “not many political partners” follow Francis totally, but “people of all creeds and opinions are listening to him, so there is always a possibility for him to help people open up for a more positive outlook on migration.” The pope himself has said that this is indeed his goal, to effect a “change in mindset” regarding immigration. Arborelius, who received the cardinal’s hat from Pope Francis last year, said that despite the rise in populism and nationalism he does not think “that the entire European project is in danger,” but lamented the fact that “every nation is eager to follow its own policy in these matters.” The cardinal said that he regretted Sweden’s tightening of its immigration policy in response to a sharp increase in violent crimes linked to migrants. Like so many countries, he said, Sweden “has changed its attitude and it is much more difficult for refugees to enter the country. I am sorry that Sweden’s policy is not as positive as Pope Francis thought.”

     With all the grim news that pours daily from the West, at least some rays of hope come from Eastern Europe. Here is video footage of the Hungarian Minister of Foreign Affairs, in an interview with the BBC, calmly explaining that his country has the right to decide who they let in. It is as simple as that. To hell with human rights and the whole mess of politically correct nonsense produced in endless garbage cycles from the EU and UN elites.

     And, speaking of elites,  here is an article which has images of a top FBI agent, the images of which are now viral, which are disturbing to say the least. The agent looks more “possessed’ than characters out of a Hollywood horror movie, and even Donald Trump junior Tweeted: “This guy has to be the creepiest person in America. OMG.” The message is in the eyes. Could we really be ruled by a Satanic reptilian class of extra-terrestrial aliens, as some tin-foil hat sites say? A real live “lizard illuminati”?

     President Trump has upset the UK (decay) applecart, with his statement that immigration is essentially destroying Britain.
  https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/07/13/farage-trump-truths-have-hit-establishment-bombshell/

“Donald J Trump’s explosive UK tabloid interview has “hit the establishment like a bombshell”, Nigel Farage has said, remarking that the U.S. President ‘gets’ the public’s concern over mass migration. Speaking on Breitbart News Daily on SiriusXM on Friday, after a tabloid interview with President Trump sent shockwaves across the globalist media, Farage asserted the President “recognises and understands” why immigration has become “the number one issue across all of European politics”. President Trump’s remarks to The Sun provoked fury from leftist British lawmakers, who branded his distress at seeing millions of third world migrants pour into Europe “racist”, and said the President’s criticism of London Mayor Sadiq Khan’s stance on terror was “Islamophobic”.

     This article has everything by way of adventures in political correctness. The UK is a good, - no bad - example of a society undergoing meltdown; a Christian doctor has been fired merely for saying that gender is determined at birth:
  https://www.naturalnews.com/2018-07-14-christian-doctor-fired-for-saying-gender-is-determined-at-birth.html

“Dr. David Mackereth’s tenure within the government-run health system of the United Kingdom was exceptionally short-lived because of his position in support of the laws of nature, which apparently no longer have a place in England. Dr. Mackereth had originally been tasked with compiling independent reports about the true health status of Brits claiming disability benefits. Part of his assignment was to refer to interviewees only by their preferred gender pronouns – something that he simply couldn’t do because of his religious convictions. “I said that I had a problem with this,” Dr. Mackereth told the media. “I believe that gender is defined by biology and genetics, and that as a Christian the Bible teaches us that God made humans male or female. I could have kept my mouth shut but it was the right time to raise it.” Keep in mind that the 55-year-old had worked for the U.K.’s National Health System (NHS) for some 26 years prior to being let go for holding the apparently politically incorrect view that someone with male genitalia is a man, and someone with female genitalia is a woman. It’s not as if Dr. Mackereth had refused to evaluate self-identified transgenders, or even insisted upon forcing his views on them. He simply didn’t want to be forced to play the silly gender pronoun name – and for taking a stand for his own rights and freedoms, he was fired from his job.”

     The late George Carlin (1937-2008),     a sardonic American stand-up comic, once said:” “Think of how stupid the average person is, and realize half of them are stupider than that.” Oh, is it as bad as that? Will we have difficulty educating the masses about financial realities if they are that dumbed down? Just consider this, and cry:

    This explains a lot; such as how easy it is for the elites to control the masses with just media propaganda, and why they have allowed “democracy” to exist on paper, since they can control people just as easily as a dictatorship, but with less expenditure of resources, in a decentralised black market kind of way. It is truly amazing how the Satanic system works. It makes the evil villains of the comic books and movies, look like, well, fiction.

     The chattering class keep pounding on President Trump, but meanwhile the real crook, Hillary Clinton has got away with what one ex-CIA official calls, “a crime for the history books.”
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-07-15/former-cia-officer-clinton-involved-biggest-treason-history

“Former CIA Officer and whistleblower Kevin Shipp says what Hillary Clinton did with her charity and Uranium One while she was Secretary of State was a crime for the history books. Shipp explains, “Hillary Clinton used this to launder money in foreign banks so it wasn’t subject to U.S. laws, congressional subpoenas or FOIA demands for the evidence.  This was done to launder this money globally into the Clinton Foundation so the U.S. government could not examine it at all.” How did she get away with obvious crime?  Shipp says, “The most bizarre thing is the people who protected her from clear felonious activity and violations of the Espionage Act.  James Clapper, Director of National Intelligence, was protecting her and leaking things to the media and lying.  You had John Brennan, Director of the CIA, protecting her by starting a false investigation (on Trump) and stirring things up with this (false/unverified) dossier.  You had James Comey, Director of the FBI, protecting her...

     It seems like something out of first year logic class, which I have vague memories of, from my BA in the US, before coming to this wonderful country. Very trite sentences such as that in the title, usually involving absurd statements: if ducks had arms then ducks could write Shakespeare. Ducks do not have arms. Therefore, ducks do not write Shakespeare. From memory, again, the argument is invalid, just like this nonsense:
  https://www.breitbart.com/video/2018/07/15/cnns-stelter-casts-doubt-trump-putin-summit-trump-simply-cannot-be-trusted/

“Sunday on CNN’s “Reliable Sources,” host Brian Stelter wondered out loud if anybody could trust what President Donald Trump had to say about his one-on-one meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin after the fact. Stelter said Trump “simply cannot be trusted” because he has proven “time and time again” to lie and contradict himself, adding the meeting would cause his opponents to speculate if he is really a Russian agent working on “betraying America.” “No aides, no note-takers,” Stelter said. “So, we’ll never really know what is said because, really, can we trust either man? No, we can’t.”

     The Australian electricity market has become a stinking swamp covered with a tangled net of treaties, laws, rules, obligations, prohibitions, targets, taxes and subsidies. The swamp conceals the rubble of demolished coal generators; another plant destined for destruction (Liddell) is gradually sinking in the green ooze. The swamp is slowly claiming paddocks of subsidised solar panels that, at best, only work for six hours per sunny day. The scene is uglified by spec-built regiments of ailing wind turbines that are often idle, but sometimes whirling madly. To distract the gullible media from this mess, big diesel generators charge a gigantic battery which pumps water uphill and then lets it run down again. A garbage dump of dead lithium batteries fills a nearby gully and the swamp is fenced by locked green gates.

     The stagnant water is stirred on sunny days by luxury launches carrying academics-with-models, green media evangelists, climate alarmists, emissions inspectors and power regulators. Speculative sharks constantly patrol the swamp snapping up every smelly subsidy morsel scattered by politicians in posh yachts fishing for votes. Helicopters full of unelected UN officials hover overhead, creating choppy waves of uncertainty. A pleasant hill overlooking the swamp houses the air-conditioned offices of the power regulators. They have no windows to the world and few power engineers; they stare at screens, run models and press buttons. The way out of the energy swamp is to retrace the way we got in.

     The following  is a great discussion about the way schools kill creativity by Sir Ken Robinson:
  https://www.youtube.com/watch?time_continue=437&v=iG9CE55wbtY

     There is nothing spectacularly new here that the few remaining traditionalist teachers would not recognise, but the presentation is done in a most entertaining way. For example, he says that the way the education system is arranged, with its epistemological biases, indicates that the aim seems to be to produce university professors. He says that these people live in their heads and see their bodies merely as a form of transportation for their heads! They are alienated in a most fundamental way. Haven’t I been saying that for years? The short of the long is that the education system needs to serve human ecology, holistically educating children to allow natural creativity to flourish, be this in art, dance or mathematics. Yes, what a long way our schools have gone from this, having become politically correct indoctrination centres, and not even being at the base level criticised by Robinson.

     President Trump has said that there is an elephant in the china shop, namely that the EU is a “foe”:
  https://www.cbsnews.com/news/donald-trump-interview-cbs-news-european-union-is-a-foe-ahead-of-putin-meeting-in-helsinki-jeff-glor/

“Coming off a contentious NATO summit and a trip to the U.K. in which he seemed to undercut the government of America’s closest ally, President Trump took aim at another Western institution just days before his high-stakes meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. In an interview with “CBS Evening News” anchor Jeff Glor in Scotland on Saturday, President Trump named the European Union -- comprising some of America’s oldest allies -- when asked to identify his “biggest foe globally right now.” “Well, I think we have a lot of foes. I think the European Union is a foe, what they do to us in trade. Now, you wouldn’t think of the European Union, but they’re a foe. Russia is foe in certain respects. China is a foe economically, certainly they are a foe. But that doesn’t mean they are bad. It doesn’t mean anything. It means that they are competitive,” Mr. Trump said at his golf club in Turnberry, Scotland.”

     Here is a very important book length  document by mike Adams, “The Censorship Master Plan Decoded” (“The Adams Report’), which shows how the high tech giants are moving to control on-line free speech and enforce the politically correct world view of globalist financial elite.

The small book will thus be of use to any students of freedom and democracy. Here is a summary of the Adams Report for the time conscious:

     We have been reporting on the rise of civil disorder and crime in Britain, much of it linked to uncontrolled mass migration and the failure of police to police, or if you like, the success of police to allow anarcho-tyranny to flourish. Permit the criminals to rape children, but smash with the iron fist anyone protesting about this. The sheeple have been quiet about this, but there are signs that they are now worried about the wolves eating them alive:
  https://www.breitbart.com/london/2018/07/16/most-brits-say-police-have-lost-control-blame-political-correctness/

“Over half of people in the United Kingdom believe the police have lost control of the streets, a shock poll commissioned by a national newspaper has revealed. The survey shows that 57 percent of respondents think the control of whole areas has been surrendered by officers to criminals who have lost the fear of being brought to justice. And as a crime wave sweeps the nation, most dramatically in London, almost a quarter of people asked in the Daily Mail poll do not feel safe to walk around their neighbourhood at night, the poll revealed. It also showed that 51 percent of people questioned who had been a victim of crime in the past two years claim officers did not bother visiting their home and 30 percent were told to find evidence themselves. Furthermore, 57 percent of respondents felt officers now do not treat crimes such as burglary with the seriousness they deserve and more than three quarters want to see more officers on the streets. And a majority of people – 54 percent – said political correctness was contributing to the sharply rising murder rate in large towns and cities. Last month, Breitbart London reported new data showing that police solved just one in ten London knife robberies last year, with the proportion of those solved falling as the number of attacks surged.”

     Like much of the real political action, this video deals with the American scene where the battle for the West is taking place. Australia is following behind, which may not be a bad thing. The noose has tightness with the Real ID Act, crating a national ID based around facial recognition technology. This will be used, as every technological advance is used, to harm us. The problem is, that the globalist one world elites will use anything to aid their cause of total enslavement. We, the peasant get only a few crumbs of the tech that fall from their gisant’s feasting table.

Still there is rioting and looting. I have not found any reason for this disturbance, except the idea that the primarily multicult rioters thought that it would be a good idea to have a riot, and a World Cup win is just as good a cover as a loss. I suppose if France did lose, then the entire country would have been burnt down, so the French should be mighty grateful for small mercies:

     The false news media are now playing the narrative that President Trump is a Russian spy, and always has been. Some chatterers proclaim that he is a “traitor,” although it is hard to see the meaning of that word now when they themselves seek to dissolve the entire nation state and crate on open borders swampland. In this context Putin’s claim about $ 400 million being illegally tipped into the open mouth of the Clinton election campaign by US intelligence:
  https://www.zerohedge.com/news/2018-07-16/putin-claims-us-intelligence-agents-funneled-400-million-clinton-campaign

“Vladimir Putin made a bombshell claim during Monday’s joint press conference with President Trump in Helsinki, Finland, when the Russian President said some $400 million in illegally earned profits was funneled to the Clinton campaign by associates of American-born British financier Bill Browder - at one time the largest foreign portfolio investors in Russia. The scheme involved members of the U.S. intelligence community, said Putin, who he said “accompanied and guided these transactions.”
