So I should support them out of fear?? That the most ridiculous argument I’ve heard so far, pay them for being irresponsible or they’ll rob you!

What do you think would happen to society of you cut off food and housing assistance to the poor? Do you honestly believe some Libertarian Utopia would emerge? Or would it be Mad Max, where no one gives a fuck?

Chicago, Detroit, Camden, etc, etc., are already Mad Max. Throwing more money at them doesn't help.

I am talking about what happens if you take 20 million Americans off food and housing assistance. Your salary/profits/dividends will go down and your taxes will increase as society collapses while you spend all of your time working to pay security to defend your property. Your quality of life will suffer, too.

I have a better idea! Leave them on the assistance. The looters are trying to get the middle class and the poor class mad at each other so they can get us to kill each other while they run away with the loot.

BUT, if we don't do their dirty work for them, they're fucked.

In her Planet Lockdown interview, Catherine Austin Fitts said that we're the ones building our own prison. As long as we're buying from any large corporation that benefits from this scheme, we're supporting our own demise.

Instead, buy ONLY small. For everything. That means you'll be unable to buy many things and will be severely inconvenienced and it will cost more.

Believe me when I say this is coming anyway, but on steroids. Imagine not being able to find food at all or paying $10 for a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. That's what is about to happen in a matter of months because we're paying them to do this to us. Plus, we'll be fighting for our lives because we fell into the trap and the middle class and lower class started killing each other.

Don't do it.

Let them do all the welfare they want, just don't make it profitable for them. This only works if we buy their big businesses. They take our money to subsidize low wages, but they do this so they can keep 100% of their profits from sales.

If WE aren't buying shit from them, then they aren't making a dime and this scheme doesn't work for them.

We pull the plug on OUR terms.

Buy only local small businesses. Don't buy things at all if they come from a large corporation. Don't buy products made by a large corporation.

This is hard. Think of the basics, like toilet paper. You'll probably have to start buying a local brand from a local store. You'll be down to very basic existence. You'll have to make all meals fresh from local produce, find local farmers with pigs and cows. This is really hard to do.

But the alternative is getting your weapons out and preparing to defend your life because the corporations will start the civil war very soon now, within months. It's already starting to an extent. The first shots have already been heard round the world.

But this plan would unite both the poor and middle class. It's a way we can ALL fight back, and it doesn't require guns, it requires cooperation and mutual aid.

Imagine working with your local community to find non-big corporate sources for all the basic necessities of life. It's an effort that would require near military precision.

But if we did it, they would know they were fucked. The looting would stop FAST. You'd be shocked at how fast money started pouring back into this economy. I bet they'd bring back initiatives like the interstate highway project and infrastructure development. It would be their only hope to save themselves.

It helps if you look at this from the perspective that we're already living in a socialist banana republic. The way of life we've been fighting for doesn't even exist. It's an illusion.
