Many of you know I have "Glorious Hat!" However, you can get your own too and it's about that time because Christmas is coming up and they ARE REALLY NICE HATS.
I know you may be reluctant to wear it because it's political, but those placards are removable, making it a warm hat perfect for winter.
Anyway, Glorious Karl is selling them at a 2 for 1 in the build up to Christmas. Consider purchasing one for yourself or as a gift!

Undermining Private Property
Permit yourself a bit of intellectual freedom.
And when I say "intellectual freedom," I mean for once just let your mature, logical, intellectually honest adult mind enjoy some thought without
1. Worrying about how leftists would respond
2. Worrying about how you'd defend this against leftists
3. Pulling up arguments tendered by the left that I would have to address should I wish to waste another second of my finite life doing so.
Just, for once, enjoy a true intellectual experience in economics where you are allowed to dedicate 100% of your thoughts towards the topic at hand, allowing us to have an adult conversation uninhibited or impaired with the childish and regressive brains of socialists.
Got rid of those concerns?
Good, here we go.
Private property, without a doubt, is one of, if not "the" most important thing when it comes to having economic growth and success. The reason is very simple - in order to incent people to work hard and thus produce economic growth they need to be allowed to keep the vast majority of the fruits of their labor. If they aren't they have no incentive to forfeit their finite and precious time in the form of labor because, frankly, it's nothing more than slavery.
We can see this not only in something as obvious as slavery, but even in communist or near-communist states. If I am taxed at 100% then what incentive do I have to work? And even if I'm taxed at 0%, but can't buy property or own anything, then I might as well have no income. This simple 5th grade logic is not only understood by...well...5th graders, but it has also played out empirically in the history of the world with the handful of communist regimes coming into existence...putting their populations into decades-worth of misery...before collapsing...but not without first killing more people in peacetime than any war ever could.
Because of this private property presents the greatest economic threat and greatest economic potential to the world's free societies. Do you protect it, enshrine it, defend it and advocate it as much as possible? Or do you punish it, destroy it, confiscate it, criminalize it, excoriate it and tax it as much as possible? The difference is the unrivaled economic success of the west and, well, the rest of the world.
To those of us capable of long term planning, delayed gratification, post-stage-one thinking, morality, or who just give a damn about the future of society (not to mention, know a little history), we are obviously huge champions of private property. But for those incapable of delayed gratification, post-stage-one thinking, morality or long term planning, the temptation of merely confiscating other people's property for their own personal advancement is just too tempting. And thus the problem facing democratic countries today - there's just too many of the later with the right to vote.
This has resulted in an interesting phenomenon where there's a tug of war between what I like to call the "producers" and the "parasites" because that's what they truly are. The "left" votes for more of other people's money, while the "right" merely votes to keep what's theirs. And thusly taxation levels ebb and flow in the western world from between 33% on the low end to 60% on the high end.
But before you celebrate paying "only" 36% of your property here in the US, it's important to clear the gunk from our eyes and take a fresh look at precisely what is "private property" and precisely how it is being undermined here in the US and elsewhere.
First, to any self-respecting individual, forking over nearly 40% of your life, wealth and labor to a state where 70% of it merely goes to bribe the parasites into voting for more of it is enraging. Emotional and intellectually dishonest arguments from the left aside, you don't owe 14 years of your 50 year career being a literal slave to other people too lazy to work. So right off the bat, the fact 36% of your life is being confiscated is enough to show you property private is being undermined.
Second, the sheer amount of effort that goes into obfuscating just how much of your property is being taken. When people think "property taxes" they usually think real estate. And usually this is such a finite example most people understand the fact you don't technically own your property because you perpetually rent it from the state (worse still, even the presumedly conservative North Dakotans went full-sheeple and refused permit themselves to TRULY own their own homes). But the truth of the matter is people do not understand precisely what property is. For it is not your house or your land or even the assets within your home.
Property in it's purest form is your time.
I've addressed this before, but there really is no such thing as your house or your XBox or your car. These are things merely composed and purchased with human time. You exchange your time in the form of labor for some "money." This "money" is nothing more than a tool, a claim on other people's time. You then pay various people to build you a home, a car or an XBox One. In short there would be no property, there would be no assets, if there was no human time. Ergo, "property" IS your time and what you do with it. Typically "what you do with it" is either generate income or purchase assets. Therefore the cash in your bank account, the stocks in your brokerage account, the food in your fridge, and the house the fridge is sitting, EVERYTHING you've earned, made or saved by forfeiting your time is property.
What this means is that ALL taxation is on property. The divisions between "capital gains tax," "income tax," "sales tax," "dividend tax," and "estate tax" are merely semantics, obscuring and obfuscating the truth - that all taxes are taxes on your finite and limited time on this planet. All taxes are on your life via the tangible property you converted that life into. However, because people rarely think of property as they way they should, they remain clueless as to just how much their private property is undermined (much like normal people are clueless how withholding taxes work).
Finally, even if you did own your property outright, and there were no taxes on its creation, ownership, purchase or sale, the state further undermines private property in one huge regard - regulation.
Tell property owners who were willing to sell "their" to the Keystone pipeline they own it.
Tell Duluth Metals they owned the $100 billion mine in Ely, Minnesota when the regulators constantly denied permits to drill.
And tell any home owner in the "republicanny" suburbs that they can build their own home without having some bored, tyrannical soccer mom or trophy wife city council member force a million unnecessary codes down their throats.
Even if you could theoretically and economically "own" your property good luck being able to use it as you see fit with a state that ultimately deems it "theirs."
The consequences of all this undermining and destruction of private property are what most of my readers can guess. There is slower economic growth. Less domestic investment. More capital flight. Lower labor force participation. And a general stagnation in standards of living. But it is important to know precisely, economically why, especially in the most simplified of terms - taxation in all of its forms is ultimately a tax on your ultimate private property - your finite life. And when people's lives are taxed, especially when used to pay for other people's lives, the deterrence to economic production is great and the economy suffers as it should.

Another Damn Fine Podcast from the Black Brigade
Another damn fine podcast by DT and the Man.
Plus some lazy Sunday linkage:
American Liberalism in particular has become nothing more than a secular religion based on so many leaps of faith it makes Islam and Christianity seem rational by comparison.
And another one from Ed.
Keep lowering the bar instead of treating them like equals.

From Our Black Agent in the Field
In my research for The Black Man's Guide Out of Poverty I get some consultation and commentary from our agents in the field that I deem worth sharing. This is one of those instances where you get to see the trail a man has traveled and appreciate the thought process, but also the adherence to intellectual honesty and reality.
My beliefs did not change until
around 2012 when I was around 26. It wasn’t a Road to Damascus type of moment, rather
it was gradual. I have the personality type of always wanting to be logically
consistent, wanting to be right, open to differing beliefs and finding the
truth. However, I was always open to the possibility of being wrong about
something and was willing to change my views. Therefore, while I had left wing
views, I tried to logically defend them and limited name calling of opponents.
I was interested in economics as a
college student and was always critical of Marxism and state ownership of
capital. My left wings views gravitated more to left wing anarchism. I knew that
Marxism didn’t work, however I thought there was something better than the free
market.
After being exposed to the
manosphere and reading “The Myth of Male Power” by Warren Farrell and “Who Stole Feminism?” by Christina Hoff
Sommers, I learned about the flaws of feminism. I thought to myself, “if The
Left is wrong about Marxism and Feminism and these are two of the leading
ideologies of The Left, what else are they wrong about?” The answer to that
question is almost everything.
As previously mentioned, I liked to
read so I decided to read writers on The Right. I started reading Thomas Sowell,
who has a reputation in the black community as being an Uncle Tom and an apologist
of racism. The first books I read by him were “Basic Economics”, “Civil Rights:
Rhetoric or Reality” and “Economic Facts and Fallacies”. His arguments were
persuasive and I finished reading those books thinking to myself “holy shit, he’s
right!” I read other free market economic books solidifying in my mind that the
free market was the best economic system. If anything, those books demolished
popular notions of the left e.g. we are tabula rasas, differences in outcome
are solely due to discrimination, government is the solution, etc.
It also seemed to me that liberal
policies did not work. Every 2-4 years the Democrats would come along call the
Republicans racists, blacks would vote for the Democrats and after Election
Day, Democrats would not care about issues affecting the black community. It
was a predictable cycle. However, blacks would not vote for Republicans because
they were seen as racists. Nothing really changed their minds since Republicans
did not seem interested in getting the black vote anyway. I still cannot think
of three liberal policies that have actually improved the lives of blacks.
I
also looked at the results. The most liberal cities in the United States
were
all upper middle class and white with high rents (due to rent control)
ensuring
that the poor and minorities couldn’t live there e.g. San Francisco,
Washington
DC, Seattle, or lower income, filled with crime, poor schooling and
mostly if
not virtually all black or Hispanic, Detroit, Gary, IN, Chicago, etc.
Cities under Democratic control the longest (e.g. Detroit) had the worst
results. Liberal
policies did not create the diverse, crime free, equal utopias that they
promised. They seemed to care only about intentions. I had a debate a
year ago
with my white liberal roommate about the minimum wage. I argued that the
minimum wage caused unemployment. He did not seem to care about the
actual
impact, only about the good intentions. And that is how liberals argue,
based
on their intentions, they do not care about the actual impact of these
policies.
It is my belief that there is no
such thing as an honest liberal, because if an honest liberal exists, then over
time, he will eventually become libertarian or conservative.
I’m just ranting now. I hope that
helps.

Feminism Thrives on the Absolute Value of Attention
It is now a daily event, if not twice a day event, I get an e-mail about the latest antics of feminism and female leftists. It is so common and so bizarre that not only am I no longer shocked, but I come to expect it. I also tire of writing about it because it's as if you're getting bum rushed with a tidal wave of non-stop, never-ending, feminist crazy and hate. Merely pointing it out and citing it as an example of just how evil and damaging these people are seemingly does nothing to stop them, let alone raise the country's awareness to this genuine and real cancer in society.
Because of this I've eschewed highlighting the latest "crazy feminist" and dedicated my time to more productive things. However, as my brain is wont to do, I looked past the crazy and finally figured out what is driving it. And it is the female desire for attention.
Take a look at the latest or more common "antics" of feminism.
There's your standard slut walks.
There's the obsession with creating new genders
There's Lena Dunham's child molestation which feminists have the gall to defend.
And let's not forget the "zaniest" antic yet, menstrual painting.
Any sane person who can remove him/herself from the political horseblinders, step back and look at these things will accurately and truthfully assess these things for what they are - a mental illness.
These are not sane women "expressing their opinion," or "liberating themselves." They are mentally damaged individuals that need (but are perhaps beyond) help. The only reason they get away with it is they hide behind "feminism" and people's fear if they criticize them they'll be accused of (GASP!) sexism. And so society must tolerate this scourge on itself.
However, if we look under the hood we see what's really going on.
Women, feminist or not, are driven primarily by one thing - attention. Attention from society so that it may secure them social acceptance and security within society as well as the resources from a male provider.
Mentally healthy women do this by being good at socializing, perhaps pursuing a career in a legitimate field, but when it comes to finance and romance, they secure a husband by being as pretty as possible, staying in shape, and using their beauty. This take effort and hard work.
Working out
Dieting
Being attentive to her husband
Offering something of value to anybody who would court/marry/interact with her
They know it's an exchange and if they're to succeed in life, they will have to work at it, offering something of value that is in demand.
However, mentally UNHEALTHY women fail to do this. They do not want to put in the effort to be beautiful, attractive, productive or just generally offering something of value to society. They are narcissists believing they are entitled to the same standards of living and success as their mentally healthy, harder-working counterparts. And this goes a long way explaining why:
Feminists tend to be ugly
Feminists tend to be angry
Feminists (despite their claim of independence) invariably demand some form of government support or charity
They are just too damn lazy to work out, work hard, let alone be altruistic enough to think about what other people want.
Now, the problem facing feminists, despite their demands (and relative success in getting) for government money, is that society, especially men just refuse to go along. Yes, the government can tax me, but I don't have to hire you and your worthless Gender Studies Degree. Yes, the government can make me pay for your fatherless child's school lunch, but it can't make me date you. And so while they may receive a government check, that is all they get. The rest of society rejects them.
The problem for feminists is that deep down inside, no matter what they tell themselves and how many mind-warping classes they take, they're still women. And women are genetically programmed to live off of attention. And since society is not giving them any "good attention" (in the form of men being attracted to them, being invited to clubs, getting job offers in real careers, etc.) they have to go and get "bad attention." And thus their insane, mentally-ill antics.
In being so outlandish with their demands, actions, behaviors and antics, they automatically beget attention from society. Of course it's not of a healthy or good variety - it's disgust and revulsion. But at least it's attention. Add to it the fact this attention is critical of their antics, it plays directly into their deluded world of being "oppressed" and "patriarchy," giving credit and agency to their one and only thing they have in life - their religion, feminism. But no matter what elaborate mental acrobatics they execute, let us be clear what all this is - nothing but attention whoring.
This leads me to the final conclusion of my little epiphany:
What if we were to just not pay any attention to the latest disgusting, "cutting-edge" attention-whoring gimmick feminists come up with next? Instead of ROK, and Uncle Bern linking to or talking about some idiot article at XO Jane or Salon we just talked philosophy instead? Instead of me linking to another spoiled, delusional 25 year old Manhattan nepotist daughter feminist writing for NBC, I just threw up some economic charts instead? What if we just took out all the oxygen in the room and deprived these feminists of the attention they so desperately desire?
No doubt this is impossible as in a country of 300 million "menstrual painting" is going to prove too tempting to resist criticizing for 275 million. But my larger point is one of accurately identifying the problem so that we may find an effective solution. Shaming them only fans their flames and allows them to self-rationalize being a "victim." Ignoring them, however, deprives them of the only interaction they get from the rest of the sane, healthy, and happy world. Leaving them with a government check and each other to squander their lives on.

Emotional Prostitution
A very interesting interview/podcast by Matt Forney where he interviews Chloe Luv, a phone sex operator about her profession. What's particularly interesting is how men use her services more for emotional and psychological support than sex, providing a unique psychological insight into the world of quasi-prostitution.
On a related note, original posts will be a little sparse until I'm done writing "The Black Man's Guide Out of Poverty." Regular hate-filled ranty charty economic goodness will continue once the book is done.

Originally set out to make a video to point out how gold and silver are not investments, but it become a much more important overall lesson about precisely what is an "investment" versus what is speculation.

Male vs. Female Savings
In Bachelor Pad Economics I flat out state that women are worse with money than men. They spend more, they spend more on worthless stuff, and they invest less.
And ohhhh the hell did I catch.
Of course I was expecting this because Bachelor Pad Economics was a book based in truth. And there's no point in time you'll catch more hell than when speaking the truth.
The problem though was that I was going based off of my now-approaching 20 years of researching and studying economics. Not only does this present the problem that I may have recalled some information incorrectly (and women may actually have been the ones better with their money...HAR HAR HAR!!!), but that this fact may have changed in 20 years. And so, being the good economist that I am, I went online to the St. Louis Federal Reserve to look up the savings rate for men and women.
Just one minor problem.
They don't break it down between men and women. Could have swore they did.
This then required that I track down the data that I could have sworn was out there. And as is many things on the internet, whatever data series I once found was now lost to the fates of time.
Thankfully, I found some relatively new data that proved what I believed to be true. Women are indeed worse than men when it comes to savings and preparing for retirement. However, if you're the visual type, here's some nice little charts making the point.
There were other charts they threw in that were irrelevant but purposely made to make women feel better, but the moral of the story is two fold.
1. Women need to save more (which I'm sure most female readers of Cappy Cap already know, and probably are doing much better than the average bear when it comes to finances)
2. For everybody all upset that I dared to say in Bachelor Pad Economics that women had worse finances than men, I'm sorry, it's true. And I'm not sorry in the slightest truth upsets you. I find it refreshing actually.
And ohhhh the hell did I catch.

Book Review - Welcome to the Divide
Welcome to the Divide by SP Daley is without a doubt the most unique book I have read in a long time. It was given to me by Mr. Daley, and like all books I get in the mail I was suspicious if this was going to be a good book, or somebody's half attempt at a book with no clear point or purpose. It wasn't until I had a flight and knew my cell phone would not last the trip that I broke it out and started reading it. And I was thankful I did.
At first I was annoyed with his writing style which consisted of the narrator using "etc., etc. etc." excessively and other oddities such as referring to himself in the third person. Also at the beginning the hero refers to himself as "we" when it is only one person. If you were under the impression Mr. Daley was a first time author, you'd be within your rights to think he was a 24 year old trying to be "cute" with these antics. But they are not antics at all, but very much planned and key to the development of the rest of the book.
Once you "get it" and realize the role it plays, the book takes your mind on a truly intellectually engaging exercise. Not only are you reading a story about a near future-bordering-economic-collapse sort of tale, but one of incredibly deep and heavy philosophy, science, technology, economics and politics. It also has action which moves the story along, and an incredible amount of creativity when it comes to plot, character development, and surprises.
If this description still leaves you wondering what this book is about, it's because it is that unique and hard to describe. It is about individualism. It is about freedom. But it is also heavily meshed in with psychology, technology and philosophy, making your mind say, "wow, just fucking wow! I had never thought of that before!" I also do not want to ruin your reading experience by even running the risk of spoiling any part of the book for you, so am also being purposely vague. Yes, I did like it that much.
Still there were two drawbacks to the book.
One, sometimes the author gets WAAAAY too in depth about his "binary" theory. For the reader it's too detailed, but then you have to realize, "holy cow, this guy had to come up with this idea as the author and thought it through to this extent!" Still, this impression aside may it a bit Ayn Randy with a bit of excessive detail.
Two, the author is too smart. This meant I had to reread things several times to truly understand what the hero or the antagonist were saying or what was going on. Between the philosophy, the author's own personal theory, and the neural-networking of human communes that was going on in the book, I at least reread 40 pages of the book to make sense of it.
These minor problems aside, the book is one I recommend as a "must" if you want your brain to be challenged and imbued with new ideas and thoughts. It may not be for everybody as you might have different tastes than I do, but I have not been that intellectually challenged since college. You can find "Welcome to the Divide" on Amazon and visit Mr. Daley's site here.

Calling All Black Lieutenants and Agents in the Field
Greetings Lieutenants!
As many of you know I'm writing "The Black Man's Guide Out of Poverty" and it is coming along "swimmingly."
That being said I'm at the part of the book where I cannot speak from authority about economics, finance, politics, etc., and need the advice, recommendations, and input from black men.
Specifically, I am interested in what it is like growing up in the black community and what the blow back is like if you dare to espouse conservative thoughts, libertarian values, question whether socialism is working, etc. etc. Is there social ostracization, are you accused of "being white" or an "Uncle Tom." What is done to keep you in line and in check?
I've heard merely anecdotes and stories, but nothing approaching multiple, in depth testimonials that would provide me some information to competently work from.
If you'd be so kind, please feel free to post your thoughts in the comments section or if you wish to remain private, e-mail the ole captain at

American Bachelors' Financial Legacy Problem
Friend #1.
Multi-millionaire, 52 years old, drives a POS import like I do. Maybe spends $200 a week on social activities. Gets his clothes from goodwill or the veterans store. His only goal in life is to enjoy coffee with his older friends while teaching himself French and Mandarin on the internet.
Friend #2.
My pilot buddy you are all familiar with. Probably worth a couple million. 43 years old, no wife, no kids, and is completely dedicated to his company. Mentioned something about a family...maybe...probably not...but he's more obsessed about cigars and buying a boat that a wife or rugrats.
Friend #3
Senior pilot who makes over six figures and consults on the side in the aviation world. No wife, no children, 46 and just hits the gym while traveling the world on his perks. Owns a nice house in a fine suburb, obsesses over his cash flow even though he is in better financial shape than most any one I know.
Which leads me to my observation.
With more and more men refusing to marry and breed, there is a permanent "Bachelor Class" forming. However, an interesting aspect of this "Bachelor Class" is that they are without a doubt the most "wealth forming" class in the world.
They have no children.
They have no wives.
They have no divorce.
They have no alimony.
They all make damn good money
and with all that free time
Are pursuing entrepreneurial ventures
And alas, all those variables and traits mean...
They have a ton of cash.
I am not rich by any means, but even with my meager earnings, the fact I have no children or wife means I at least have SOME savings. Pro-rate that into the future and when I die, heirless, there will still be some significant funds to be bequeathed.
Thus, while everybody is focused on paying off their student loans, getting out from underneath their mortgage, finally closing their alimony, etc. etc., there is this "elite" and "numerous" bachelor class that I (conservatively) estimate will have easily $4 trillion in wealth when they die to pass on.
So who, precisely, will inherit it?
Well, that depends.
I personally plan to split my "estate" between my girlfriend who has treated me kindly and a little varmint like creature that has endeared me to her childish antics.
My millionaire real estate friend is so indifferent and complacent he intends to let it fall to the state.
My pilot buddy hasn't thought that far, but that's the whole point...
You bachelors need to think about what you're going to do with the wealth you've obviously built beyond what you can consume.
This is one of those rare problems you "wish you had," but still, your decision today on how to bequeath that money will have an affect on a world that will be after your death. Ergo, any moral man will want to make the right decision, ensuring his life-time-currency would be put to the most noble use. Do you donate it to the local "pink ribbon campaign" that has yet to solve...anything? Do you donate it to the local food shelf to feed people too incompetent to support themselves? How about your alma mater that will brainwash the youth on rape culture and socialism? Or do you donate it to some third world African country charity that has never yet solved one problem on that continent?
The answer is very simple.
Give it to close, loved ones you genuinely cherished in life or
burn it.
I don't know about you, but there are very few people that deserve my money, let alone the excess money I've earned through the pain and agony I spent learning to earn such money. And bar a GENUINE charity like St. Jude's Children's program, I'm going to give it to loved ones in my life who were noble, honest and true. Since this is such a small list of people and said monies run the risk of spoiling them, that means there would still be a significant amount of money left over. And with no obviously deserving heir to it, I will most likely burn it.
You must look at what you suffered as an American bachelor. You're privileged because you're male. You pay more in taxes for children that aren't yours. You're accused on sexual harassment if you merely look at a girl. And you're supposed to work all the hard, risky, dangerous and math-impaired jobs while the opposite number complains about a "wage gap." It's not just the ungratefulness, but hypocrisy and parasitism of society that disqualifies them from deserving any of this $4 trillion so it's upon you (and all bachelors) to set up a will that ensues the money only goes to deserving people, leaving none for the society that viewed you as a personal financial slave and whipping boy.
It may sound wasteful and insane, and certainly you could find enough deserving people of your post-mortem estate. But if it comes to it I'd rather have my money burn than give it to some welfare WIC receiving single mom of 4 who thinks she's entitled to 4 decades worth of my toiling. You must also consider your future finances as such.

The Benefit of the 67% Dead Club
Many of you care/cared about this midterm election of 2014.
I didn't.
And this was the first election I truly didn't care about.
Want to know why?
I'm already dead Blythe. 67% dead to be precise.
Like my stepdad who is about 90%, I also realized that I am on the opposite side of 50%. My family's genetics is not that great. Nearly every male has died of cancer, alcoholism or stroke, and if any of us Clarey's make it past 60 it's a god damned miracle. And thus at 40, I'm 67% dead.
This permits me a huge amount of levity, freedom, and intellectual honesty because I no longer have to care. Naturally, the fact I have no children allows me this levity, but in the end, it is a benefit. My time on this planet is for the majority, over. And since I have no children I have no long term vested interest in it or what happens to it. So I'm allowed the precious gift of merely watching it without the attachment or concern that most of you other people have to it.
I enjoy people suffering.
I enjoy people suffering their mistakes.
I enjoy watching the limitless single moms and dead beat dads of my generation try to scramble and salvage their lives that are beyond repair as they live vicariously through their underperforming children.
I enjoy the liberal arts majors PANICALLY realizing their financial lives are fucked.
It's great! I cannot think of a better, more poetic justice and gift that life could grant me.
But the issue is simply this. How many of you are part of the "50%+ Dead" crowd?
You see, I know a lot of you still hold on, still believe, still hope that western civilization will recoup, recover, and hopefully repopulate this country and other European countries, to bring back some kind of "glorious" industrial empire era of revitalization, but it isn't going to happen. This one awesome, incredible, TRULY "miracle" of western civilization will be a mere blip in the grand scheme of human history as the savages and ideologues and religious fanatics out-populate us and your (beloved) children. It's merely a fact, it's merely a consequence, it's merely an actuarial reality.
But, while you're here and there's nothing you can do about it. Why don't you at least permit yourselves the favor of enjoying the decline?
Seriously, if you're already half dead, I think you're in the clear. The United Sates is still strong enough to last another 40 years or so because of the herculean efforts of the WWII generation. And before we get too down on ourselves, let us remind ourselves that most of the world is nowhere near as grand as we are. China may be growing, Russia may be invading, but in the end, both countries are incredibly corrupt and therefore their currencies flawed. In short, the US dollar will not suffer a "quick death," but rather an elongated one that you can (hopefully) more or less "bank on."
It's the younger generations that have to worry as they're the ones that are going to be left with the bag. My non-fellow baby boomers will die in 10 years. I'll be dead in 20. But that's only after we've collected TRILLIONS in social security and medicare from their naive asses. And for once I'll grant the baby boomers a bit of forgiveness. It was the Millennials that voted Obama in twice. It was them who were pro-socialism.
I say take advantage of them!
They voted to give you more money at their naive expense. You might as well take it.
Ergo, it's great to be 67% dead. You lived a great life in a great country, with standards of living supplicated and inflated due to government borrowing. The brilliance is that the youth voted it upon themselves and will pay for our mistakes and their ignorance.
Enjoy that decline people. Enjoy that freaking decline!
