You know, nine years ago there was a lot going on in the news. Nine years ago we were just a few weeks away from Doomsday! From Armegeddon. From the big bang all over again.
Nine years ago people were scrambling to the supply stores spending TONS on solar products, freeze-dried dehydrated nicfitdogeatdogmultibysubstaproducts, gas cans and kerosene heaters (Oh, by the way when the power "grids" didn't fail why did we stop looking for alternative fuel sources back then, hmmm?).
It was late 1999 and in just a couple of short weeks life as we knew it would change for the majority of the earth's population.
But besides inflated consumer spending which lead to a false sense of security in the credit world and 9 years later we rescind - nothing happened. The world didn't end, and Al Albert Arnold AlGore Juniors internet didn't fail.
So what's all this brew ha ha???
It's this - nothing is going to happen. The power isn't going to stop, the fuel won't triple or get cut in half. There won't be any riots. No one will get shot or killed and Santa Claus isn't going to stop coming. Hell isn't going to freeze over and my dad isn't going to come back from the dead. No, I'm afraid nothing is going to happen. Some people are gonna be really happy and some are not. So people will misunderstand to think this is a hand out and some will think it's a strike down.
Not a lot of folks are going to be looking for a leg up though. That seems to be the problem with the country nowadays. Everyone wants a freeby - no one wants to work for anything.
