Every day my life be like:
"Haha you thought the government wouldn't ignore stagflation and double down, causing the entire financial system to collapse while driving all the commodities producers in the world into the arms of BRICS.
You said the government wouldn't keep rates above 5% because it would cause the interest payments on the debt to force debt monetization and hyperinflation.
But the government did all of those things and the world hasn't presently ended. What do you have to say?"
As the cost to survive increases for the average person, they become desperate. Desparate people are stupid enough to expect the government that caused their problems will aleviate them. They will willingly accept slavery.
Until they don't. Then the shit hits the fan.
Normal people don't lie to rock the boat. It is the crazies on the streets daily.
Eventually, people can't eat, can't afford housing, can't afford heat. Then they are willing to fight with the crazies.
