Is The American Youth Ready For Conscription?
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/29/2015 21:00 -0500The shining future that America once had is all but a page note in the history books now.

The US & Europe Will Collapse Regardless Of Economic "Contagion"
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/26/2015 21:25 -0500We cannot forget that crisis is in itself a distraction as well. Whatever pain we do feel tomorrow, or the next day, or the next decade, remember who it was that caused it all: the international banks and their globalist political counterparts. No matter what happens, never be willing to accept a centralized system. No matter how reasonable or rational it might sound amid the terror of fiscal uncertainty, never give the beast what it wants. Refuse to conform to the dialectic. This is the only chance we have left to get back to true prosperity. Once we cross the line into the realm of worldwide institutionalized interdependency, we will never know prosperity or freedom again.

Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/25/2015 20:30 -0500Seemingly confirming the national new normal, dumbing-down-ness, the following clip shows Americans have absolutely no idea about the value of precious metals.

Confederate Flag Sales Soar Despite Populist Removal Of Merchandise
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/23/2015 16:20 -0500Following the removal of Confederate Flag merchandise from WalMart; Sears, Ebay, ETSY, and prominent flag maker Valley Forge Flags have all joined the 'movement' and stopped selling the 'controversial' flag.

Monk Or Martyr: One American's Strategy For Survival In The New Normal
Submitted by Tyler Durden on 06/23/2015 15:30 -0500"...my personal strategy for change has morphed from speaking to power in favor of becoming a monk rather than a martyr. If I could stand in front of a tank and have it force positive change I would do so but clearly that opportunity won’t happen or present itself in this leaderless, narrowing, putrefied, lying lawless system of festering corruption. Beyond 2015, I fear it will continue to be everyman for himself and thus divided we'll fall having rejected the spirit of one nation, indivisible, with liberty and justice for all."
