2. Well, I'll admit that what's going on there is more like "gallows humor,"
but there are some very witty people posting there who make discussing economic Ragnarok bearable.

3. It's the ECONOMY, Dorfmenschen!!!
It's "Money as Debt," "The Corporation," and "The Power of Nightmares."

Our current monetary system is built on the concept of "unlimited growth." This is a terminally FLAWED construct. Always has been, always will be. It is the mentality of a cancer cell.

7. Yeah...gallows humor for sure. One thing I like about the forum is
knowing we're all in this together and another, some of the ideas on how to survive! (I gave you the first K&R....wish I could give it another to get even more people to the forum.)

10. Oh, that's a good point.
Sorry, Economy, if you get hit with an invasion of fuckwits soon.

11. Invite new people to a different forum and then refer to them as fuckwits?
Thanks for the invitation.

I think?
