Are You Concerned About Inflation?

by Simon in

i saw a statistic the other day that something like 25% of all the debt that the us has incurred since 1776 was created in the last 12 months.

that's because they have printed so much currency and instead of letting that stop them, they are going to continue printing more to go on a spending spree on crazy green-new-deal schemes and union handouts.. does anyone think that this can be anything other than inflationary?

they are effectively stealing the wealth of everyone to then hand money out to people.

North America effed up by thinking they could save money by outsourcing all of our manufacturing.

The Watchtower—Study Edition | January 2022

by RULES & REGULATIONS in

the watchtower—study edition | january 2022. during the great tribulation, gog of magog’s forces may try to assault us in our homes.

but we can take comfort in knowing that jesus and his angels are aware of what is happening and will defend us (see paragraph 13).

13. when gog of magog attacks, why will we appear to be vulnerable, but what reason for confidence will we have?

Jehovah’s witnesses create their own persecution. They bring it on themselves by following the policies of the leadership. The leadership uses this to create more fear and keep the loyalty of the publishers.

God punishing organization

by asp59 in

if you are a jw you think god is punishing watchtower?

after watchtower got banned in russia and buildings seized, lot's jws said russia would be punished.

org kept losing in court with child abuse cases.

I see the watchtower corporation as a rudderless, captainless vessel steaming at full power in an ocean full of icebergs.

It’s like when Kodak doubled down on film cameras and Sears doubled down on brick and mortar shopping.

Incompetent leadership has nothing to do with God.

there is one house that my never jw she really likes.

as we drove by the house, i turned to her and said, "that's your armageddon house.

Unless Jehovah somehow changes the laws of nature in the new system, who is gonna maintain all those Armageddon houses?

The Poor the Wealthy and the Middle Class

by Simon in

the poor spendthe middle-class savethe wealthy invest.

the unique circumstances of the lockdown and stimulus checks has highlighted these differences in stark ways.. on one hand, you have jumps in sales and valuation of companies like foot locker and nike, as people spend their "free" government money on sneakers.

they blow it on useless tat.

The middle class spend too much time and money being middle class. It costs money and takes time to maintain social status. That’s why they are going nowhere financially.

It is much like being a Jehovah’s Witness in good standing. You have to do all the right things(aux pioneer, be elder, go to international conventions) to keep your status. This keeps them tired and broke.

Every society needs slaves and that’s what the little people are. It’s rigged up to use our human nature against us to keep us on the treadmill all the while thinking we are free and somehow better than the next guy who lives in a little bit smaller house than we do.

The system is set up to keep people poor. The system needs the working class poor. If every last member of the poor caste figured out that instead of squandering their money on Nike shoes they should buy Nike stock the share price would suffer as there would not be as many shoe sales.
Poor people are easier to control. Keep them so busy on the work treadmill and throw them the odd crumb of government handouts and entertainment that they are just too tired to think about how badly they are treated.

I’ve always had the habit of investing my overtime earnings from work. That way I don’t get used to spending more than I actually earn and I’ve had a few in between job times where I dipped into those savings until I could secure another job.
