The “Nation’s Report Card” looks as bad as ever. LOL!

Though it appears Georgia minimized learning setbacks more than other states did, it ended up in the same place as the rest of the nation. The state’s average scores, which include only public schools, were within a point or two of the national public school average in every area.

Overall, it means COVID-19 brought the rest of the country down to Georgia’s level.

And the U.S. educational system was by no means a beacon before COVID-19, Cardona said. “The pandemic simply made it worse. It took poor performance and dropped it down even further.”

The US “education” system is doing what it was intended to do. The hoax only shone a bright light on the insidious evil. If you keep your kids in this premeditated evil, if you willingly tolerate the evil, then you are joining and committing the evil. Do not do that.

BeCauSe Of wHaT ThE PaNdEmIc dID!!!!!!!!!! Or something. Another new survey suggests that reading and math achievement in in K-12s has fallen so low that students lose the ability to speak and walk by around the third grade. It’s so bad that they may not be able to count all the new genders and pedophilias.

And if one reads Tim Bakken, one knows that even the mighty West Point has fallen. The USMA accepts student-officers, maybe 25% of them, with aptitude scores barely suited for grunts. They will lower the standards even further, if that’s even possible.

But hey, the water’s still on in Jackson, right? Right?! No? Hmmmm…….

A Gross Failure To Read The Room

 

Out of an abundance of wishful optimism, I made a little mistake a few years ago. At the end of one of my first TPC columns on the great Hoax, I tried to reason that with so much lockdown time on their hands, the younger people might do what younger people used to do. I wrote: “We might even have a new baby boom. Hey! You two millennials! Go work on that one, right now!” See, I was still under the false belief that birds and bees and lockdowns make for… My bad.

I now understand that boys and girls may, in fact, be girls and boys, that vasectomies are cool, that abortion is healthcare, and that nobody has any interest in children. We now have even more bad news about the decline of the American population; this is an update on my hideously malformed population column from about a year ago.

Way back in 1914, the rather odd E.A. Ross wrote in Chapter Ten, Social Effects of Immigration, of The Old World In The New: The Significance of Past and Present Immigration to the American People:

Not until the twenty-first century will the philosophic historian be able to declare with scientific certitude that the cause of the mysterious decline that came upon the American people early in the twentieth century was the deterioration of popular intelligence by the admission of great numbers of backward immigrants.

Please keep in mind Ross was writing about immigrants from Portugal, Italy, and Poland. As true and accurate as his work in 1914 was, he probably could not have imagined the decline in post-1965 America. Well, it is the twenty-first century, I stand in as the philosophic historian, and I hereby declare with scientific certitude that the decline in popular intelligence and the decline in general society derives (in half part) from the admission of ridiculous numbers of backward immigrants throughout the twentieth century and beyond. Immigrants from the European countries Ross bemoaned still scored very close to the Northwestern Euro average IQ of 100. Today’s new arrivals score at or below the general world average of 82.

The other half part is the decline in the native American population, particularly among those of higher intelligence. In Ross’s time, intelligent young American couples married and had four, six, or more children. Today, they trade “genders,” pile on the debt, dope themselves out of their minds, slave away for minimum wage, and die early surrounded by face masks, booze bottles, and fur babies.

These two evil twin factors have seen the country’s average IQ drop by at least ten points over the past seventy years, with a current annual average depreciation of around .4 points.

The great news here and now is that the Great Replacement is not a theory, conspiracy, or otherwise. In addition to being, since 1965, the official legal policy of the US, it is a scientific certainty. It is mathematical.

Over the past year, since equating “non-Hispanic White” with “American” in that 2021 column, I have gotten into the lazy habit of checking Census information updates through a third-party source. (By Ross’s Anglo standards, the Heritage Posterity American population probably stands at only 20-30% of the total. As everything loses meaning, I’ll keep standing by the catch-all, stand-in “American” definition as I have previously explained). The other day, I consulted the direct government sources and was able to round out the rough decline for 2021. Thanks to the Hoax and other matters, some directly hoax-related and others not, the total population of the US practically stalled last year – adding only about 400,000 new folks (mostly via lower-IQ migrant invasion). Non-Hispanic Whites, as one might guess, continued to take one hell of a beating. The number I was waiting on was 2,545,602 White deaths – a first-ever record high. Cheery, eh?

First, an update on the update about the 2020 loss. They keep micro-tinkering with the numbers. Right now, the best estimate for 2020 is that we lost 640,640 White Americans. In 2021, we lost another 661,048. Since the drop started in 2016, we are down 2,064,791 White people. It’s like the loss of the entire metro population of Cleveland or Kansas City. *POOF* Gone. With the increasing effects of the Hoax and the apparent collapse in opposite-sex attraction and family building, look for 2022 to continue the trend.

Trends… Since 2000, the total US population has grown by about 50 million people, from 281 million to 331 million. Yet, the White American population has decreased, as both a percentage and as a whole numerical figure. It has fallen to around 195.1 million, essentially where it stood circa 1999. It’s almost as if some kind of replacement is in progress. Odd, huh? I do see that my calculator is wearing a little tin foil hat.

As a total percentage, Whites were approximately 70% of the population the last time our total numbers were this low. That was down from about 83% when I was born and about 90% in 1950. So, where are we now? There really is no exact telling. My most recent ciphering, based on the latest birth and death statistics, has us at or around 58.78%. But the Census proudly says it’s more like 57.8%. Averaging – through the conspiracy theory of “division” – could it be 58.29%? Or, winnowing down to those of strictly European ancestry – an inexact process – is it more like 54.5%? Here, we lose scientific precision, though the forest is clear through the falling trees.

Another way to gauge the present and near-future collapse is by extending the officially-reported decadal descents: 1970 (83.5%); 1980 (79.6%); 1990 (75.6%); 2000 (69.1%); 2010 (63.7%); 2020 (57.8%). The general trend is mildly accelerating; by chucking the high and low increase rates, we can average out a ten-year decline rate against the whole population of 5.1%. The losses are just over half a percent per year. From the official 2020 57.8%, to base minority status at 49.9%, we need … lemme conspire with my theory a second … 15.5 more years (2035~). From the best guess of 54.5% in 2022, it’s another nine years (2031).

Either of those two dates will come sooner than the ballyhooed 2040, 2050, or whatever. I’m sticking with my simple prediction, from last year, that replacement inversion happens in 2029. Why? Again, the 50-year trend is slowly, generally accelerating. Again, in general, young people are not producing more young people like they used to. And, since 2020-21, huge numbers of people have been willingly, stupidly injecting themselves with a poison that is now proven to cause gestational obstacles, total infertility, and overall depopulation. Maybe there was a conspiracy, after all. Some sort of great reset or something.

And we were warned. Ross was writing long before the luciferian rat Klaus Schwab was hatched and before the base destroyer Emanuel Celler ever slithered into politics. Others rang the bells. Few heeded them. Ross got in a modicum of difficulty over his tacit embrace of eugenics. A century later, the American people and the United States Empire succumbed to the arguably worse plight of dysgenics.

Now, now, if there’s a real problem in all of this, I’m sure it’s nothing that another cure-all election can’t fix. Go ahead and vote to your heart’s content this fall. In 2024 too. If they let you. A future room to read.

UPDATE: The jobs slide away too.

Cracking Safes, Cracking History

 

The FBI’s website boldly proclaims: “We protect the American people and uphold the U.S. Constitution.” To that noble end, among many other things, the FBI:

Constantly spied(ies) on the American people;

Constantly subverted(s) the U.S. Constitution;

Covered up hundreds of cases of ritualistic satanic child abuse, to include connections to the US government and assorted international entities;

Prosecuted zero cases from Epstein Island (Mas’ Epstein and his hag aside)(your author is aware of the previous work of the judge who signed the Mar-a-Lago search warrant);

Stood aside while the DOD and the CIA unleashed Operation Northwoods;

Stood aside and/or colluded in a coup against the democratically-elected government of the United States;

Rounded up hundreds of mostly-peaceful political dissidents who dared protest the coup;

Did essentially nothing in the wake of the de facto civil war fomented during the summer of 2020 in the wake of one felon’s drug overdose death;

Did absolutely nothing concerning the largest biological and psychological warfare attack and genocide in human history; and,

Raided the private home and safe of a former US President for actual reasons yet unknown.

The reasons obviously have to do with political motivation and revenge. When or if they are ever articulated, the articulation will be a lie not designed to protect the American people nor their faded Constitution. 

To better understand both the pitiful shape of the US today and the endless hatred of Donald J. Trump, a brief look at modern presidential history is in order. This is a theory of that history which may require the reader to dispense with certain preconceived notions.

Kennedy

I’ve written before, as have others, that JFK was the last American President who attempted to govern as if he really thought he was in charge of the Executive branch. He obstinately thwarted the nascent Dark State on at least four major fronts. For his defiance, he was assassinated.

Johnson

LBJ was a pure good old boy politician and scumbag. However, he was not a direct agent of the Dark State. Instead, he was merely amenable to and usable for their interests. 

Nixon

Milhouse was an oddity as President. Love him, hate him, or forget him, he was not the Dark State’s man. yes, many of his actions served their dark purposes, but he still was not one of them – at this point it’s not really important. Rather than risk exposure by murdering two presidents within ten years, they found another way to rid themselves of this prickly academic.

Ford

Ford was the penultimate all-American public servant who genuinely loved the American people. He was naturally tasked with calming the nation in the wake of the upheaval of the early 1970s. He was not particularly note-worthy as an ambitious achiever – which is not a bad thing. And, most importantly, he was not a creature of the swamp.

Carter

See what I just wrote about Ford. Jimmah was the last of “our” men to hold the highest office, at least without substantial interference from the growing power of the cabal. But by 1980, their power had grown to the point where they felt they could make changes in their favor. And they did. Here, I must note once again that James Earl Carter and Mrs. Rosalynn are the only President and First Lady couple I have ever met. Our brief encounter was a pleasure; these two veritable steel peaches radiated goodness of a kind we will likely not see or feel again. 

Reagan

Ronny Raygun was literally a Hollywood actor hired to play a part. He played it better in some regards than in others. A presumably deeply compromised and controllable man, he garnered a popularity that made the next phases of national descent less noticeable by or more acceptable to the masses.

Bush 41

Following Reagan’s very successful stage show, the Dark State did something novel, something one might think unthinkable. They put one of their very own in power. Prescott’s son was not on the cabal’s side; he was a full and powerful member. The experiment, while it worked well for the devil’s forces, proved a little too much, perhaps, as far as the still plausibly arousable public was concerned. Going forward the DS opted for a safer approach.

Clinton

The Arkansas hillbilly was the first of an extremely effective series of puppets. Two terms, smoke and mirrors, and the agenda advanced nicely.

Bush 43

The second puppet continued the ways and services of his immediate predecessor. Under his eight-year reign, things went into overdrive on multiple fronts. To keep these things moving, a special character was required.

Obama

Barry was the special character, literally hand-crafted from his youth to play his role as the third great marionette. By even his first term, many observers had begun to finally notice the general direction the nation was headed, but they, most of them, did not fully understand the scope or the gravity of the situation; your author did not, for what it’s worth.

*Tactical Note

From the end of Carter’s administration, all Democratic and Republican opposition candidates (nominees) fit into one or more categories: controlled opposition, controllable opposition, or carefully-selected or allowed weak horses incapable of affecting insurrection against the cabal. Perot, I think, fell into the latter category. Anderson I knew, literally knew as a man. He was definitely not part of the wicked program but was allowed to proceed because, as good a man as he was and/or with his flaws, he was not a threat. All other third-party or independent candidates were nonstarters of no concern to the DS.

Trump

Approaching the 2016 election, the demographic, cultural, and political landscape had changed to such a large degree that the DS was forced into a new strategy. They selected a hybrid candidate, a puppet so closely-aligned with them as to practically be a member of their cult. All was proceeding smoothly until one fateful summer day when a brash, megalomaniac real estate showman rode down an escalator, accompanied by his lovely wife and Neil Young’s Rockin’ in the Free World. 

As soon as Trump announced his entry into politics, I knew he would be elected. I did not imagine the psychotic overreaction of the DS or the war they would launch. They cranked it up immediately and they have not let off the hammer as of today. (I chose “psychotic” just now for a reason). 

Behind the scenes meddling and common rigging methods have been a feature of American politics for my entire lifetime. Subtle interdiction served the DS well since they disposed of Kennedy. However, Trump was a wrench in the works they had not counted on. Hence, they deployed their full system to prevent his election. Two things happened, I think: one, they didn’t count on the Don’s popularity, and two, their system wasn’t fully ready. So, never accepting Trump’s victory, they spent the next four years obstructing his entire presidency. From November 2020 through January 2021, Trump was unable to “cross the Rubicon” as he had no support at all from his own government, to include his military. None of it was really his. But his greatest accomplishment, in being cast down in 2020, was to expose the DS corruption to plain view.

Biden

In November 2020, the new election system worked as needed and perfectly. More importantly, the cabal embarked on a new strategy more suited to this extremely late political hour. They no longer need a president. Trump won the legal popular contest, but Biden won the machinated count and was illegally legally certified and installed. Trump rode into the tumultuous sunset. However, literally no one believes that Biden is a real executive officer. This includes Biden, to the extent he is capable in his condition of considering the matter.

Going forward, as far as we do, this is probably the way it is and will be. Both Republicans and Democrats are excited about the 2022 Midterms. And the 2024 election. I think none of it matters. Just as they no longer require a president, they also no longer need Congress. If a validly-elected administration can be nullified, and a fake administration accepted, then there is no recourse against the bureaucracy that controls everything. The DS now has the unfettered power to directly control the elections to fit their whims, or they can allow honest elections and simply ignore or abuse the results as they desire. 

It is truly a dark day for the United States and, especially, for the American people. But it was a long time coming. And it is here. It’s not about to happen, just down the road, or possible; it is now and in force. The silver lining is that all of this is a clear sign that things are spinning apart. The Atlantic calls it the “Great Unwinding.” Thank God our betters have given us a name for the phenomenon and spared us the ridicule of the conspiracy theory! Though we may guess with some certainty, none of us know exactly how this unwinding will play out. Like the dark tyranny, it too is already in motion. And there appears to be no stopping it. Let it play out.

My theory is that, once the great unpleasantness has run its course, a new nation, or more likely, new nations will emerge. In it, or in one of them, let us hope and pray that the American People have a happy home. Evil never rests, and it cannot be fully defeated until the Return. Thus, the Americans of the future must guard against the certain rise, sometime in the unknown future, of a new subversive cult of destruction. 

In the meanwhile, we must all wait patiently and trust in Providence. This applies equally to the good federal employees, FBI agents included, who read the foregoing with an anger not based on what was written, but on the known or suspected truth in it. To you honest men and women, I can only counsel restraint. There is little to nothing you can do, directly. Rather, refuse to loudly and openly serve and enforce the agendas of the Dark State. Do not make yourselves needless targets. Lay low, do your jobs by living up to that website statement, and prepare with the rest of us for tomorrow. You will be needed. 

As for the mad matter at hand, we will see what develops. The official excuse, when or if given, may cover J-6, classified files, Russia, or the Man in the Moon. Whatever it is, it is theater. And so, we wait and we watch.

BONUS! Everyone is really fired up now! For now. Suddenly, left, right, and center all see some sort of double standard in law and justice. Welcome to the 19th century, late birdies! Yes, I’m sure that the very next election will solve all your problems and fully restore the REPUBLIC under the (High and Most Holy) CONSTITUTION! *sing praise!* Well, no… I’ll go ahead and call it: Your beloved Constitutional Republic is dead. I suggest it died on or about April 15, 1861. You may say otherwise.

Red State, in an article yesterday, is right about not taking the Dark State’s bait in re the Mar-A-Lago fiasco. Don’t do it. However, don’t fall for their suggested solution either.

A red line was crossed with this raid on Trump’s home, and electoral vengeance is justified. But it must come in ways that are actually effective, and that means being strategic and playing the long game. It’s going to take a Republican Congress in 2023 and a Republican president in 2025 to make any headway against this insanity. There is no other way, and once the tables are turned, any Republican politician who doesn’t have the stomach to fight back must be banished.

The age of practical politics is over. 2023 and 2025 no longer matter. And this solution that won’t work, or in fact, any solution, is unnecessary. It’s now an imperative issue of being quiet, being hopeful, preparing, and waiting. I’ll explain tomorrow in another charming column!

PS: My explanation will include our legitimate friends in the FBI and other officers who still serve the people.

PPS: Remember that whatever comes up on the moving screen or the approved printed page is more likely than not fake.

It Will Get Worse

All the crocodile tears about the failed US “schools” are a little premature. Because it can and will get worse. Give it a few more years. Then again, maybe they’re decades late. This thing was dead and gone when I was interred in the camps. The starter answer to the following question is, because they are no longer AMERICAN schools.

Why are America’s schools so short-staffed? Experts point to a confluence of factors including pandemic-induced teacher exhaustion, low pay and some educators’ sense that politicians and parents — and sometimes their own school board members — have little respect for their profession amid an escalating educational culture war that has seen many districts and states pass policies and laws restricting what teachers can say about U.S. history, race, racism, gender and sexual orientation, as well as LGBTQ issues.

“The political situation in the United States, combined with legitimate aftereffects of covid, has created this shortage,” said Randi Weingarten, president of the American Federation of Teachers. “This shortage is contrived.”

What to do?! I suggest more mask mandates, mRNA poison mandates, lower standards, more Russian sanctions, warmer classrooms, and much, much more holocaust education. But obviously, the people who completely killed education can find some way to mutilate the corpse fix it.

The political and legal shenanigans cease to matter when the people keep making wicked, short-sighted decisions.

Kansas voters on Tuesday overwhelmingly struck down a proposed constitutional amendment that would remove language enshrining reproductive rights in their state, in a move widely seen as a victory for abortion rights activists.

The proposed amendment was the first time anywhere in the U.S. that voters cast ballots on abortion since the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade in June.

This, as bad as it is, isn’t the whole story. Previously in the USSA, when a majority of voters expressed their collective will, and if that will concerned any moral standard, then they could reasonably expect a federal judge to thwart their will and halt the democratically decided upon course of action. The people stupidly accepted this. Yet, when doing something similar might serve them in a strange reverse way, I doubt they will even consider it.

And Kansas, don’t think that a far more powerful Judge isn’t already considering your case. If you voted to keep murdering children, then you probably won’t like His verdict.

Confidence or Struggle

Or, a struggle against a confidence game. The debtpocalypse of mass financialization is working well! Perfectly, even.

In order to make ends meet, 43% of Americans expect to add to their debt in the next six months, especially young adults and parents with young children, according to a separate study by LendingTree.

Most will rely on credit card debt to bridge the gap between what they need and what they can afford, the report found.

Already, the rise in borrowing, together with auto loans, student debt and mortgages, propelled total household debt to a record $15.84 trillion at the beginning of the year.

“The truth is that debt can be either a sign of confidence or struggle,” said Matt Schulz, LendingTree’s chief credit analyst.

Catch that part about young adults and parents? It’s almost like there’s a war on the future of America or something. I’m sure it’s nothing another 80 million enemygrant invaders won’t fix.

“Trespasses” is an enlightenment misinterpretation. Matthew 6:12 literally reads: “And forgive us our debts, as we have forgiven those who are in debt to us.”

“Creditor-friendly” = satanic = destruction of families and society.

Jubilee now.

The other day, an acquaintance, taken with the Azov-Nazi Regime, asked me whether I stood with the Russians or the Ukrainians. I replied that I stood with the Christians, which, of course, means the Russians (not that it doesn’t mean most Ukrainians as well). That increasingly DOES NOT mean Americans or US residents or citizens. The darkness grows in the former US of A.

In a profession long dominated in the U.S. by Christian clergy, Buddhists are leading an ever more diverse field that includes Muslim, Hindu, Wiccan and even secular humanist chaplains. Buddhist chaplains say they’re uniquely positioned for the times due to their ability to appeal to a broad cultural and religious spectrum, including the growing number of Americans — roughly one-third — who identify as nonreligious.

If one is dying in a low-rent hospital and requests a Priest, I suppose it is better for a kindly pagan woman to appear rather than a witch doctor or a robed, knife-wielding satanic sorcerer. Then again, the next AP piece will probably be on how great those two alternatives are and how we have always been a Judeo luciferi-Christian nation. Or, they may just say “luciferian nation.” One doomed country, under evil, with “dignity and respect” for all…

COLUMN: Get. Out. Of. The. Cities

 

An old legend tells that once upon a time in Philadelphia, an old woman asked Ben Franklin, “Bennie, how many little skeletons are buried under that London…” No, wait, she wouldn’t have known to ask back then in real-time. Uh…

She asked him what kind of government the frauds and usurpers at the “constitutional convention” had foisted on the free Englishmen of America. Bennie grunted, scratched the sleeping beaver on his head, and told the old woman, “a republic, madam, if you can keep it.”

Maybe the old woman, for her part, did. We certainly let the treacherous thing go. Well, the government is still there, more debased than ever, still lying, robbing, and killing. It is, after all, just a proposition, an idea. A bad idea. Bad ideas, like dark spirits, once abandoned and after a time, simply float away on the breeze. But the living nation the fake republic was designed to subvert is already vanquished. The very polity forged, poorly, by the joining of that doomed nation and the Curse of ‘87, has crumbled all around us. The lands themselves may soon slide beneath the seas. 

Nowhere does this plain, terrible, and justly-deserved truth manifest itself more vibrantly than in the cities of the former United States. 

Imagine that you allow yourself to live the life of a medieval peasant, minus the tranquility, security, and dignity and that you dwell in a cramped, smelly, vermin-infested tenement building in Brooklyn. Your neighbors, millions and millions and millions of them, are seventy-percent Not-americans. Not that they need to, but they sometimes let you know about the demographic shift. Every day, you board a dilapidated train to venture a few miles deeper into a loud, stinking concrete hell where you perform menial tasks for people who genuinely hate you and pay you a wage that would have been approximately justified and appropriate in 1890 Kansas. During these oppressive treks, you mentally review your growing debts and misery. Drugs are your only friend. Terrible thoughts occasionally enter your tired mind.

You stopped paying attention to your surroundings years ago. Today, you’re wearing a mask on the train because something on the telly once told you that it was better than breathing freely. Everyone is masked. Nobody is paying attention. None have noticed that one of the passengers sports a literal gas mask on his dark face. Few realize he’s tossed a smoke bomb until they begin to choke. You hear shots ring out. Suddenly, you and dozens of other thralls lie on the floor bleeding. The masked shooter lopes away unopposed. No security cameras work that day. Your usual numbness saves you from agony. Instead, crumpled there in a puddle of blood, you wonder if the boss will fire you for today’s absence. You recall you have no medical insurance. You’re living the new Amerikan dream, another day in the big city.

That just happened in New York. Putin, White supremacists, climate hoaxes, the seasonal flu, and fraudulent contracts had nothing to do with it. I used to write extensively about things like this. Now, what’s the point? The last I read, the valiant and overweight NYPD were searching for a “black male,” having identified an implausible-sounding 62-year-old. Was he a gang-banger? A terrorist? A crazy nut? A real prophet of doom? Could this have been yet another false flag? Staged production? At this late hour, who really cares?

It is what it is. Especially in places like New York. This is the new normal, and it will continue to get worse – much worse – rather than better. All things being equal, predators go where the prey is. Few attacks like this happen in small towns and rural areas because there are so few potential victims around. Pack a hundred inattentive, obese sadsacks in one subway car, and it’s a dream shooting gallery for criminals of any stripe. 

We’re not fixing this, short of using nuclear weapons. There’s no voting our way to safety. There’s no suing. Nothing in your precious constitution will help. Self-defense in such circumstances is difficult and, these crazy days, de facto illegal. There’s only one way to survive a mass mayhem event: DON’T BE THERE.

I’ve been telling the preppers to pick the area in Ukraine that best resembles where they live. Why? Admit it or not, the US is already in a low-grade (un)civil war. When it heats up, it will burn. Events like the 36th Street Bloodbath will become routine, daily events. Worse things will happen. Above it all, sooner or later, heavy bombs and artillery may possibly start flying. Things have changed. It’s not 1982 anymore. Pax Americana has become Gehenna Ameri-cacas. Praesertim in urbe. The big metros are no longer fun zones and economic opportunity areas. They’re kill boxes. GET THE HELL OUT OF THEM!

Note: Originally, before the Rotten Apple diversity celebration, I was tinkering with several ideas for another Russia article. Phase two of the SMO is rolling or about to roll. I recently linked to another book nobody will read. And I had an epiphany of sorts about the valuation of the Russian economy. I’ve been a little suspicious of the claims about the “$1.5 trillion GDP” and the “$67 billion military budget.” It occurred to me that the comparative dollarized accounting is artificially low, or is a misplaced measure because of the relative lack of globalist financialization in Russia. During the 1990s, the vampiric descendants of Trotsky returned and attempted to finish the murder. They were stopped by a man named Vlad. History continues, etc. But the nation’s economy is still there, thriving, and still linked mostly to the nation itself. It’s also linked to actual value and not to slave payments of fake debts, unreal money that never existed. 

This is just a little theory, based on my guesses and a quick look at wages and big-ticket prices. De-inflated down (or up…) to the properly corresponding period of US monetary and fiscal history, I figure the Ruble and the economy it drives are somewhere in the USian 1970s. The current average income is roughly equivalent to 6,500 2022 dollars; the average house sells for something like $21,000 (in 2022 USD). This looks like Ohio or Mississippi around 1970-75. It’s why despite having such a low-sounding muh GDP!!! the Russians still manage to afford homes, new cars, roads, first-rate weapons, rockets, entertainment, and more. 

I can’t and won’t yet make the math fully comprehensible, but for now, the metric I’m going with is a multiplier of six. (Six, ironically, happens to be the answer to that older forensic question). So, again very roughly and imprecisely, $1.5 trillion becomes $9 trillion, and $67 billion approaches $400 billion. Given the relative size of the populations, those adjusted numbers are almost exactly in-line with what passes for econ stats in the present fading US. For reasons, I strongly suspect the Russian figures also beget more bang for the buck. 

Also, for any Russian readers, there is no reason to avoid the fineries of Moscow, Saint Petersburg, or Yekaterinburg. Civil order has been destroyed in the US, not in your country. Keep it that way.
