This Space for Rent

Last Call

About the only thing separating the spiffy new vassal slavery law (the "bankruptcy" law that the Evil Party is in the middle of enacting, which has special provisions to make it so that rich people can simply wave their hands and have their debts forgiven while poor people will end up working for their creditors for the rest of their natural lives) from the black ages is that the law doesn't force children to pay off the family debts.

I'm sure that this will be coming soon; by pushing this bill, the Evil Party is stating, loudly and clearly, that the United States is about to suffer an economic collapse that will make the Great Depression seem mild, and that the only thing they intend to do about it is to establish a vassal state to ensure that their base remains fat and happy.

This is, after all, the sort of thing that an unelected junta does; if the country collapses into Haiti writ large, it won't really matter to the parasitic upper classes. After all, they've already moved all of their factories and R&D facilities to countries that haven't figured out that the collapse of the United States is simply forshadowing what will happen to them when their markets dry up.

That gentle ringing sound you hear? That's the last call for the get the fuck out of Dodge train; when the United States craters, it will pull the rest of the world into a depression, but it's going to be a lot worse in Imperial America that it will be anywhere else. If you can get out, get out now, because the coyote isn't going to be able to tread air that much longer.
