What's your thoughts on the religious and spiritual aspect of this transition time forthcoming? Will we see a renewal of faith in God and how will that affect the social structure and politics?
“New York City is finished,” he said. “They can’t keep order there, and you can’t have business without order. It’ll take a hundred years to sort things out and get it all going again.”

“Well, I hear that this Harvey Albright pretends to be running things out of Minneapolis now. It was Chicago, but that may have gone by the boards. Congress hasn’t met since twelve twenty-one,” Ricketts said, using a common shorthand for the destruction of Washington a few days before Christmas some years back. “We’re still fighting skirmishes with Mexico. The Everglades are drowning. Trade is becoming next to impossible, from everything I can tell, and business here is drying up. It all seems like a bad dream. The future sure isn’t what it used to be, is it?”
“We believe in the future, sir. Only it’s not like the world we’ve left behind,” Joseph said.
“How’s that?”

I think the masses don't really give overpopulation much thought, and for most people alive today this is just how things have always been. None of them have had to seriously consider food scarcity.
There are also those who are more aware and just assume that we'll engineer our way out of our problems again when we start hitting the next production ceiling. Feels like wishful thinking to me, to just assume everything will work out without anything to base it on.
I'm in a field that is heavily involved with crop production, I've been to conferences and seen the latest advances and what's in the pipeline. All of the improvements that are being worked on are incredibly incremental, scraping very small efficiencies at great cost. Most of the industry is focused on leveraging AI and automation to get something on the order of 5-10% yield improvements, and the costs to implement these technologies in the real world are really prohibitive at this point for most crops.
Based on my cursory understanding, he is correct as it applies to large scale farming.

One is that I believe AI, instead of dousing a field with a uniform coverage of pesticides, can "look" for insects and only use pesticides where it determines they are needed, avoiding waste. Same type of thing for other inputs.

“I have been asked a lot about how I feel about passing along Bridgewater after having started and built it over the last 50 years,” Dalio said in the LinkedIn post. “I am thrilled about it because I love seeing Bridgewater alive and well without me — even better than alive and well with me.”
Chart isn't inflation adjusted but you can get the idea. It's hard to find an inflation adjusted chart going all the way back to 1907.
Probably the strongest cycle is the 34 year cycle 1932 to 1966 to 2000. Hard for me to imagine 2034 could be a high but it was hard for me to imagine 2025 could be a high either. So my inclination at the moment is to look for a 2025 high and a 2034 low or a 2032 low (1932 to 1982 to 2032). Maybe it'll be 2033.

Fact will be when the Border ends so did you. Brandon is and always be what is truly was.

The mayor of a violence-plagued city in Mexico was killed on a Sunday with his decapitated body left in a pickup truck

The name Laodicea is comprised of two Greek words, laos, which means "people" or "nation," and dike, a legal word referring to "custom," "punishment," or "judgment," based on context. The Laodiceans considered themselves law-abiding people. The last of the 7 as Time is here.

Yes, He was very old, and I was very young on a snowy day seeking game with my dog who is so dearly missed on to this day.
Property taxes on his average life with average pension unable to meet the average revenue demand was the root issue

The Model T Truck rig had a rip saw in tow with a flat belt off the back rim to slab his lumber to the mill for revenue payment.

July 15 was my best shot for guessing this top. It looks like it's in now.
Early 2026 at the latest but it's going to be hard for Trump to squeeze any more out of it:

Republicans tell Trump to ‘grow up’ after he sacks data chief
Benedict Smith

President Trump’s sacking of Erika McEntarfer was described as ‘kind of impetuous’ by Cynthia Lummis, a Republican senator.
Republicans have told Donald Trump to “grow up” after he sacked the US government’s top statistician over underwhelming jobs numbers.
The president said on Friday he would remove Erika McEntarfer as commissioner of the Bureau of Labour Statistics (BLS) shortly after government figures indicated the economy was performing worse than expected.
The move has prompted a rare backlash against Mr Trump from members of his own party.

Say, like Trump, you've been in the real estate business, and you recognize it's a bubble and has been for a long time. It's logical to say, well, it's been a bubble for a long time and the way to address it has been to buy the dip and then wait for some excesses, trim holdings, wait for the next dip, etc. The practical way to be successful in navigating the bubble has been to take on debt and assume the general trajectory is onward and upward to bigger and bigger bubbles with speed bumps along the road.
No worries, just a speed bump. The Boomers have been hitting speed bumps at full speed since, oh, about the time of Woodstock.
