I have predicted for many years the coming dissolution of the United States and the reemergence of Texas as as independent nation. It is in the best interests of everyone if Texas goes its own way. The concept of Texas independence is not predicated on the collapse of the United States, but in the mind of many you cannot justify one without the other. During the economic boom, it was difficult to convince people that it was all going to end. Now the end of the era is here and it is getting harder to deny it. Take a look at this video:
The head of the Trends Research Institute told an interviewer that the United States was headed into a depression worse than the Great Depression. He predicted a holiday season built around food rather than gifts, with handmade goods and local shopping replacing trips to the mall, and called it the start of the end of the retail Christmas. President-elect Obama’s plans, he said, offered no quick fix, and the decline would go on as households carried heavy consumer debt and lost jobs.
His advice ran to thrift. He told people not to spend a penny beyond what they could afford and to steer their children toward community college and careers that pay back the cost, such as accounting or health care.
Governments would try to squeeze more out of ordinary people, he warned, by raising property and school taxes. The only job growth he saw was in public schools and government itself. His conclusion was that government has to shrink, and that it won’t do it on its own.
