An apology to Digging4Truth and Edward Anglin
Both of these gentlemen have been warning of collapse for some time. I have fought them tooth and nail. Well it seems maybe I am the one that is wrong.
I don’t believe there is some cabal in place. I do however see that human nature being what it is; we have reached a breaking point. We face disaster equal to or greater than the great depression.
Debt spending in America has reached a feverish pitch with no end in sight. Our President is about to sign a treaty that will cede American sovereignty to a one world governmental body designed to take our wealth and give it to those who have proven to be thieves.
Our government purports to work against the financial institutions that brought about the collapse however; the government (both sides of the aisle) has been bought and paid for by these same banking interests.
Even if the American public wakes up and takes control of America in the next election cycle in 2010, it is likely to be too late. Our debt and our printing of money have reached such a level that there simply is no way back to the ledge we have leapt from.
This article (just one of many reasons for my change of heart) speaks to some things that are utterly disheartening.

The link speaks to a number of issues that have been building in me as we talk about the relevant issues taking place right now. Edward is right; it is time to start putting back supplies for a time of peril.
For those of you who are buying gold, I wouldn’t put my faith in that either. In the short term it might be a bit of a bridge, however if things really go hard south, don’t be surprised at all to see the government take it from you. For those who cant believe I just said that, understand this, it wouldn’t be the first time that happened.
I pray that D4T, Ed and I are wrong. However for now, let me simply say
Ed/D, I humbly apologize for all our debates. I concede.
Its time to start canning……
Peace and may God have mercy on all of us.

Quoting 18th century Scottish historian Alexander Fraser Tytler: "The average life span of the world's greatest civilizations has been 200 years" progressing from "bondage to spiritual faith ... to great courage ... to liberty ... to abundance ... to selfishness ... to complacency ... to apathy ... to dependence and ... back into bondage!"
Where is America in the cycle? "It is most unlikely that Western societies, and especially the U.S., will be an exception to this typical 'society cycle.' ... The U.S. is somewhere between the phase where it moves 'from complacency to apathy' and 'from apathy to dependence.'"
