Worse is ahead for you billy. The US is doing alright but the emerging market dump is ahead for your P’s. Your inflation is going to surge along with unemployment. It’s called stagflation and it is coming to you.

The US is now hard at work on that. We now kill 70000 young people a year from drug overdoses. Another 45000 a year in car wrecks. The fertility rate is already 1.84 births per woman (2015) so we are well on our way to depopulation.

“Population in the world is currently (2018) growing at a rate of around 1.09% per year . The current average population increase is estimated at 83 million people per year.”
makati1 on Thu, 4th Oct 2018 8:38 pm
Davy, you are delusional as usual. The Ps National Debt to GDP is 25%, not The US’ 105+%. And less than half of that debt is in USDs. Personal debt here is low because of the high requirements to get loans or credit cards. A large part of the populace do not even have bank accounts. Do you think they will even notice? I doubt it.
The crash is already happening in the US but it is being covered up by lies and fictitious numbers. The sheeple are stupid and want to hear only good news. (Look in the mirror Davy) Never has brainwashing been so easy as in America today.
You can try to make others look bad, but it is the US that is swirling down the drain. Inflation here is about 4% but it is at least 8% in the US. Unemployment in the US is really around 20% or depression levels, if they were reported accurately. But that would cause a panic in the sheep pen wouldn’t it? TPTB need to keep the lid on Americans finding out how bad it is there so they don’t start killing the rich. Be patient. That time is coming.
Don’t try to make other countries look even worse, because you have no idea what it is like there in real life. None. The US is in the crapper and there is no way out. Enjoy your tightening police state as your cushy lifestyle crumbles around you. I’m enjoying the freak show. He said…she said… LMAO

Unfortunately, US depopulation is a worry you can scratch off your list of concerns. The fertility rate of 1.88% is not an accurate representation of population growth for this number fails to factor net immigration. While the early 1900s were thought to represent the great immigration wave from Europe (1900-1920 30 million immigrants), in fact the greatest wave of immigration occurred for the period 1990-2010 when the US accepted 61 immigrants, primarily from non-European nations.
Just the US fertility rate alone means that the US population will double in just over 36 years!!!! Factor in net immigration and the US, by far, has the highest population growth of any Western nation.
Hope you sleep better tonight.

…third world immigrants, millikike’s crew intends to use as a proletariate against the unsuspecting once white majority. Americans unfortunately prefer to stare at the development of the value of their stocks rather than reading history books and learn what happened in Russia in 1917, because something similar is brewing in the US. But this time the egalitarian revolution will not be about economics but race. But the (((revolutionary leaders))) will be the same:

If the world stands long enough, there will be zero “whiteys” in another two generations, if there are any even now. A genetic scan would say that there are likely zero pure Caucasians left in the world today.
You have no idea who your great great grandma screwed behind the barn, or who resulted from that liaison. Just because your skin appears to be white, does not mean you are pure Caucasian. ‘Permanent tan’ is humanity’s future, if we last long enough. LOL

1990-2000____32.7 million net US immigration____
The dream of a stabilized — or even a stabilizing — population was proven to be nothing but a fairy tale, as U.S. population exploded with its biggest growth ever. The Baby Boom peak was exceeded — not because Americans decided to have bigger families, but because Congress further increased immigration to a level almost quadruple the traditional level. And federal decisions to stop enforcing most laws against illegal immigration in the interior of the country led to additional higher levels of illegal aliens in the country. Yet another cause of the boom was immigrant fertility. Although American-born citizens maintained a below-replacement-level fertility rate, immigrant fertility was at a similar rate to the U.S. Baby Boom fertility of the 1950s.
2000-2010____27.3 million net US immigration____
Mass immigration continued during the first decade of the new century. Immigration reform legislation was voted on multiple times that would have provided amnesty to more than 10 million illegal aliens and more than doubled annual immigration levels. Mass amnesty bills failed in the Senate on multiple occassions, leading to the drafting of more focused amnesty legislation including the DREAM Act. However, the DREAM Act was also defeated in 2007 and was defeated again in 2010. The end of the decade saw stepped up efforts to discourage illegal immigration at the state level with the passage of E-Verify laws and illegal presence laws in Arizona, South Carolina, and other states.
Prospects for the Future:
The immigration tidal wave of the last three decades has made it impossible for Baby Boomers to ever enjoy the 1970s dream of a stabilized country — even if all immigration were stopped tomorrow. The Census Bureau states that if immigration were reduced to replacement level, the United States population would still be growing at the end of the century because of the momentum created by the last three decades of immigration.
Cloggie on Fri, 5th Oct 2018 3:53 am
There is nothing inevitable about our seemingly demise. We are still too much in the Christian “Albert Schweizer mode” of thinking, refusing to see non-whites as dangerous competitors, rather than suckers that need to be fed and “developed” by us.
500 years ago, the Reformation reduced that goddamn Christianity from 7 to 1 days a week. Now after 500 years of science, nobody takes Christianity serious anymore, other perhaps a few retards in the Ozarks or inner-Siberia. Now it is time to finally and explicitly get rid of the “cult of compassion” and its secular offshoot Marxism, because if we don’t, we are finished.
Davy on Fri, 5th Oct 2018 5:26 am
“If the world stands long enough, there will be zero “whiteys” in another two generations, if there are any even now. A genetic scan would say that there are likely zero pure Caucasians left in the world today.”
Billy gives his famous armchair predictions again showing how deep his intellect goes. There are plenty of whites around and they will be many more. There is nothing wrong with genetic mixing as long as we keep some purity around. I breed animals and you learn about genetics quickly. Pureblood populations are important and there is vigor in mixing. Too much mixing or too much linebreeding leads to negatives. As far as humans go our negatives are far more a factor of the nurture side of the equation. We are teaching people to be fat and stupid then they are breeding these resulting traits into a weaker population. There are consequences for modern behavior over generations.
Davy on Fri, 5th Oct 2018 6:15 am
The problem really is no longer population growth per say if we only have a few years left. Our question needs to be do we have a few years and that is based on can we maintain what we have? I am taking this point for view for this discussion because most of the time we have optimist academics that tell us we are ok because population growth is arresting and optimist take the view of maintaining economic affluence is a given. They don’t explain much what that means just that the great danger of overpopulation is now over. Economics of an overshoot are pretended away. What do we do now that we are overpopulated per a reasonable carrying capacity?
Bifurcations from the systematic breaching of thresholds occurring from a global world in overshoot with population and consumption changes the dynamics of the meaning of population growth or decline as they happen longer term. The slow gradual increases we have seen were emergent over generations. Adaptation was allowed and it was positive adaptation at least in regards to humans improving living standards. It is obvious for non-humans and the planet it was anything but good. We are now talking the dynamics of a population teetering on the edge of a carrying capacity breach. What is a few million more or less matter now except that it might break the camel’s back?
We likely now have 3-6 BIL too many people depending on where civilization’s bottom is. This is supported by “real” and “honest” science. The issue now is can we maintain complexity to support all these people and avoid a die off “bottom”? All this talk by our academics on a future with a population that is naturally ameliorating its growth may be mute because the dynamics are now about the population itself and its carrying capacity. The dynamics of population growth or decline are meaningless when we are talking about a 5-20 year adjustment process. Now it is about more than slight changes in deaths over births now it is about the degree of deaths on average for how many year.
Nature adjusts populations and we like to think we have mastered that process over the last 200 years with technology but it is clear we just learn the overshoot process. A likely reasonable carrying capacity even with relative complexity is 1-3 BIL depending on the civilization. A wise civilization might be able to handle 3BIL. One like ours needs to be in the 500MIL-1BIL range because we are not wise. We are unwise and we are unable to check our technological urges. We are more interested in breaking into the deepest secrets of nature than learning to live sustainably with nature. How important is quantum computing when your civilization is being ripped apart? That reminds me of Mayan temples in the jungle.
To get back to 1-3BIL population over a few decades is using the averages and that is brutal. Even if you take a long view we are still talking 200-300MIL deaths over births a year and this must last a generation or two. That is an average so in a bad year it could be 500MIL. Can you imagine a 500MIL death year??? We whine about WWII but that is another world compared to this. This makes the question more than can we stop population growth and maintain a shallow decline? This is about how do we live with a possible die down? This is rarely talked about because the way of life will be draconian. Maintaining what we have will require superhuman cooperation and wise choices. It is also unclear if we can maintain such a large population in affluence. Complexity requires affluence if this current large population can be maintained. Will affluence hold out? Populations naturally aspire for affluence especially modern ones whose participants have been spoiled with a narrative of more affluence. Affluence is the problem now and especially the urge to more so my optimism is low.
It is more likely our civilization will not be able to maintain this way of life and without it there will be a die down and it will likely be harsh. Who knows how this will play out because we don’t have all the variables of nature and human nature but the math is clear on this. So I would say now is a unique time in history where we have all the cards on the table. The cards will start turning over quickly this decade. They have been turning over for the least two decades. We can no longer deny many inconvenient facts of our civilization in overshoot. Science is telling us clearly this cannot go on “as-is” but we are doubling down on “as-is”. We likely have no choice but to continue as we are because what are the options? The pot is good and the spoils will be reaped soon.

Ah, but MOB, they have never gone up against a real rival with nukes. The US has never invaded any country with a nuke arsenal. They won’t this time either. Even the Neocons understand total destruction will not further their plans or make their goal even possible.
The Neocon/Elite crowd are not loyal to one nation. They are only loyal to power, real or perceived. They could care less if the US goes down. In fact, that is part of the plan. You just happen to be living at the end of their Great Leveling Plan. Me too, but, at least, I can observe it from distant shores.

Mataki1—Your articles do not address planning for a single disabled city-dweller without family nearby. I suppose it goes without saying that such will be the first to die when the SHTF, regardless of any prepping.
makati1 on Fri, 5th Oct 2018 10:50 pm
Eleanor, yep, it is likely the case if you are an American. If you live in the US, there is little you can do to prepare for the crash except to hope for a slow one you can adjust to.
Moving closer to, or in with, family would be your best bet. Then help them to prepare as much as possible. I know that is not the current culture there in America, as it was in the past, but it is common here in the Philippines. Families are still close and help each other as much as possible. Even neighbors share.

“Eleanor, yep, it is likely the case if you are an American. If you live in the US, there is little you can do to prepare for the crash except to hope for a slow one you can adjust to.”
Eleanor, don’t mind Billy, he is an old man in a small Philippine village pretending like he has his doomstead set up to save him from a coming collapse. He is living a kind of fantasy common with old people who are entering senility. He is pushing 80 in a country without health insurance and no family. He acts like a permaculture farmer that is never at the farm. He is one contradiction after another
makati1 on Sat, 6th Oct 2018 1:27 am
Elie, don’t mind Davy. His families cannot wait to get far away from him. Two failed marriages says it all.
If you hang around here long enough, you will understand why. He is an arrogant, domineering, delusional, stalker who lives in the Missouri Ozarks, so he claims, with a bunch of goats, on his daddy’s farm, so he claims. No way to prove that. The likely really is that he is in some psychiatric ward.
Notice that he likes putdowns and uses them like a club on anyone he disagrees with. Never a referenced honest rebuttal. I am 74, in excellent health, live with my business partner and his family, in the Philippine countryside. I have been here for over 10 years, yet I have no idea what it is like here, but, never having been even close to Asia, he is the expert. You get the idea.
Davy on Sat, 6th Oct 2018 1:48 am
“Elie, don’t mind Davy. His families cannot wait to get far away from him. Two failed marriages says it all.”
Look at Billy talking about family he deserted to go to his fake retirement paradise in low budget P’s. He also talks about failed marriages so ask him about his. LOL. I had a failed marriage in 1990…lol.
“If you hang around here long enough, you will understand why. He is an arrogant, domineering, delusional, stalker who lives in the Missouri Ozarks, so he claims, with a bunch of goats, on his daddy’s farm, so he claims. No way to prove that. The likely really is that he is in some psychiatric ward.”
Davy has a real permaculture farm unlike Billy’s fantasy farm. Davy has goats and cattle in a multi-species grazing system that emphasizes management intensive grazing to enhance the best production of animals on the least amount of pasture with the least amount of imputes. Billy doesn’t understand these things because he is not a farmer. Davy has his own land and also takes care of the family farm. Billy can’t understand this sort of thing because he dumped his family to run off to a cheap retirement in the P’s. You can always tell when Billy has lost the argument and that is when he starts talking psychiatric ward.
“Notice that he likes putdowns and uses them like a club on anyone he disagrees with. Never a referenced honest rebuttal. “
Billy is talking about himself here. He doesn’t want to mention that he is the one starting the shit. He does the put downs and then whines when I put him in his place. He rarely has good references or facts to back up his assertions that are being moderated.
Fixed this statement
“I am 74, in questionable mental health, live with my male partner and his family, in Infanta, Philippines
“I have been in Manila in a high-rise for over 10 years”
“I have no idea what it is like here, but, never having been even close to Asia, he is the expert. You get the idea.”
Billy thinks he knows Asia because he is in a small town in the P’s. Ask him why most of his material be posts is from Zerohedge and not Asian sources. I think that about sums up how much Billy understands about Asia.

Throughout history people gradually began to understand that mass-murdering sociopaths like millimind belong behind bars or need to be kicked out of the country.
And since most Americans don’t even have a beginning of an understanding of the problem, continental Europe will have to do it, if necessary with a little Chinese help and Australia as the next Alsace-Lorraine.

He often posts a 3-5 AM. He must be a bad sleeper, probably worries a lot, especially about contemplating if it makes sense to continue to farm if in a year or two he has to abandon the place if he will have to flee from zombies to Italy, into white safety. Davy’s problem: should I sell now or wait a little longer. It is exactly the same problem thousands of so-called White Russians (as opposed to Red Russians) had in 1917.

MOB, Russia is not afraid of the cowardly US. Its S400/S500 anti-missile systems will guarantee that no nukes make to into Russia, if the US is stupid enough to try.
However, Russia’s IMMEDIATE response will penetrate deep into the US as all of the US anti-missile systems are over 30 years old and are pointed in the wrong direction. American arrogance/delusion will be its death. Not to mention that, at the same time, the US 12 carrier fleets will be sunk by hypersonic missiles from Russian subs. When the sun comes up, there would be nothing left of America.
The US is a paper tiger that is being taken down/isolated by more and more countries every day. Even little N.Korea is not afraid.
