And as the edges of our familiar reality begin to ravel, more and more people are reacting psychologically. A noticeable pattern of behavior is emerging.
“Humankind cannot bear very much reality." — T. S. Eliot
In yesterday's column I wrote that Congress has grown fearful of the citizens. Rather than facing their constituents back home during the summer recess, many Congressmen and Senators have canceled town hall meetings and decided instead to remain hidden.
To be sure, there is nothing particularly wrong with this scenario from a purely American point of view. Our Founders were convinced that once the citizens began to fear their government, the Republic was in deep trouble, and that elected representatives need to have a healthy fear of the electorate.
It has been so long since elected officials in Washington were scared of the people that the present circumstances are bound to come as a shock.
But this wakeup call was sorely needed and long overdue.
Good evening, ladies and
gentlemen. I am not an expert or a scholar or an activist. I am more of
an eye-witness. I watched the Soviet Union collapse, and I have tried
to put my observations into a concise message. I will leave it up to
you to decide just how urgent a message it is.
My talk tonight is about the lack of collapse-preparedness here in
the United States. I will compare it with the situation in the Soviet
Union, prior to its collapse. The rhetorical device I am going to use
is the "Collapse Gap" – to go along with the Nuclear Gap, and the Space
Gap, and various other superpower gaps that were fashionable during the
Cold War.
A look at mass protests during the past 500 years reveals surprising clues.

The "freedom movement" needs a little dividing, between people who actually believe in freedom, and those who only believe in whining. (The video of Larken Rose's controversial July 4th speech has finally been posted.)

A year later, in 1999, a very capable investment and portfolio
strategist asked me if he could come have a private lunch with me in
Washington. We sat in a posh restaurant across from the Capitol. He
said quietly that he had calculated out where the derivatives and debt
bubble combined with globalization were going. The only logical
conclusion he could reach was that significant depopulation was going
to occur. He said his estimates led to an approximate population of 500
million. I said very quietly, “that’s my estimate too.” I will never
forget the look of sadness that crossed his face. I was amazed to find
someone else who understood.

Central Alberta Dairy Pool v. Alberta (Human Rights Commission)
Lindy (http://www.lindymusic.com) performs his new song "Shakedown" which is inspired by Ezra Levant (http://www.ezralevant.com), his book, and his ordeal with the Alberta Human Rights Commission.
This was one of the many songs he performed at the Liberty Summer Seminar 2009 (http://www.liberalstudies.ca).
And is that cabinet minister Jason Kenney singing at the end?

We live in interesting times. But we're not necessaily cursed. Longtime readers know my standard response to questions
about the severity of the Greater Depression: it’s going to be worse
than even I think it’s going to be. “Coming Collapse” books will
undoubtedly accumulate into an entire genre in the next few years, as
they did a generation ago. This time it’s not just fearmongering,
although things won’t get as bad as in James Kunstler’s book “The Long
Emergency” and certainly not as rough as in the movies “Road Warrior”
or “I Am Legend.” But it’s a good bet that a lot more is going to
change than just some features of the financial system. Let’s engage in
a little speculation as to the shape of things to come.
I’ve long believed that this depression would not only
be much different but much worse than the unpleasantness of the ’30s

I believe we do have the power to reign in our government(s). It will take a large number of people (500K- 1Mil ??). So I am trying to post this to as many freedom activist sites as I can.

An American flag flown
upside down as a protest in a northern Wisconsin village was seized by
police before a Fourth of July parade and the businessman who flew it —
an Iraq war veteran — claims the officers trespassed and stole his
property.
A day after the parade, police returned the flag and the man's protest — over a liquor license — continued.
