One year ago I would not have thought so. I believed in the mathematics of it, as I am a very analytical math brained type person, but now I have a new theory. This time it really is different. We are in uncharted territory now. I feel like money is an abstract concept and it is not necessarily tied to math. We are in an Orwellian spot where manipulation through either outright rigging, or just strong propaganda can suspend or cancel the rules of mathematics.

So my theory is that their will no longer be a big collapse. Instead we will continue to live in this strange state we find ourselves in today. All the numbers will say things are OK, yet our living standards will gradually go down, but no one will be the wiser or care.

So the question for the poll is: Have you changed your mind in the last year about where we are going as a nation/economy.

Mine is YES, I no longer feel like I need to stock up on supplies or guns. TEOTWAWKI is simply not going to be allowed to happen, because math non longer matters to the degree that it used to.

The math will prove fatal but it just takes more time because of the fraud and manipulation.

The ponzi will continue as long as foreigners continue to let it.

If the generally accepted meaning of the word marriage can be redefined, so can "keep and bear" or "freedom of speech" or anything else in the Constitution.

The math caught up to Greece, Romania, Hungary and who knows what other countries because we have **** for news. It will happen here. We are losing reserve currency status and we have two states on the verge of bankruptcy, the only thing keeping them afloat is accounting games.

We bankrupted the USSR with the defense spending game and we are still carrying that debt burden. Its just a matter of time but since we have the printing press it will probably take longer than anyone thinks.

Its called creeping TEOTWAWKI. Just because it doesn't happen all at once doesn't mean it isn't happening.

We are in a Ponzi bubble, and this one is HUGE. The collapse will be epic.

I need to refine my theory a bit. There will be no collapse. Instead there will be WAR.
