We're 17 years past the peak now and the 3rd World is going hungry and dark. We'll be next, we're well on the way in fact.

Head north from Port Augusta and they’re everywhere. Crumbling homes, busted windmills, lone chimneys. You can take the Stuart Highway northwest towards Coober Pedy, or the Outback Highway towards Marree, but each horizon brings just the same scattering of dead farms and lost stories.
Gee....modern Australia outside the cities looks like the American dust bowl days. Good thing we fixed that with our exceptionalism!

High-Winds Derail Freight Train In Wyoming
In a word, Greed! Or perhaps more aptly, trying to make transport economically viable by doubling the height of the loads. It would be easy to write this off as meaningless but consider our societies have had a good 100 years of the oil age to get this shit right, yet as things get tighter and tighter they are cutting corners left right and center. Like all those cheap imported truck drivers in California that are killing people by their incompetence. This is all city related because that's where the majority of the loads go, where the majority of those disabled in the post above live. Nearly all cities across the globe are going backwards now. They still function, some like Detroit, Just, but the Bell is tolling for them all.

Yes we are, as we are,
And so shall we remain,
Until the end.

USDA Suspends All Payments To Minnesota's Food Programs Over Suspected Fraud
Like they really give a shit about a little fraud. The entire US system is built on fraud, from Military appropriations to Senators expense accounts. Look at the big picture. You have a nation 40 Trillion dollars in debt and the interest repayments are now crippling it. Just like the cutbacks in Federal unemployment payments decades ago this is just a measure to reduce the government's liability to it's consumers. The cookie jar is getting empty and one day it will be empty. On that day it will all go, just like it did in the socialist USSR. And all the while the unwashed masses just continue on their mindless way, not putting anything aside for the future, wasting every cent that passes through their hands.
Nov 19, 2024 — Around 30% of American households are living paycheck to paycheck, according to Bank of America's internal data. Further, 26% ...
Or
Nov 19 2024 Nearly half of Americans say they live paycheck to paycheck
https://www.cnbc.com/2024/11/19/bank-of ... check.html
That was a year ago, today?
