I’m from the UK and we are in exactly in the same position food prices are extortionate items are getting smaller in size and costing more. Mortgages are at around 7-8% for people with properties payments are up by around 30-40% in the last couple of years.

[@virginiaalt1245]

Why has this happened? When income taxes were first set up, they were only on the very rich elites & corporations. But they financed politicians who would remove their taxes by exemptions mainly so that the tax burden fell on to the working classes & poor. So government started charging real estate taxes on peoples homes for revenue (then when Americans fell on hard times or retired & could no longer pay the constantly increasing real estate taxes, they were forced to sell or the government stole their properties for unpaid real estate taxes). This form of taxation needs to be stopped completely. The people need to demand it because they don't really own their homes when the government can seize it away from them because they can no longer afford the higher and higher taxes.

In 1960 corporations paid 60% of the income tax collected. Today corporations pay 28% of the income tax collected. Record corporate profits, lower standard of living for the average worker. I stopped playing the debt game, with the current cost of living, debt is out of the question. Paid off $60,000 in Car and interest free credit card debt in the last 44 months. Debt free and able to bank 45% of my monthly income of $3,716 = $1,672. Remember 1 thing from the video - DEBT is your enemy!!! Pay it off as soon as possible.

You believe someone else should pay your share of the costs to protect and care for you? How about a flat tax where everyone pays?

During the Depression time, the Federal Government forced Americans to sell the gold they had to the government at greatly reduced prices, making it illegal for citizens to own gold. The Federal Government will most likely do it again since they have probably stolen or given away to foreign governments or for wars what gold used to be stored.

In 2021 used cars over $25000 were selling faster than cars under $15000. I haven't seen that in 17 years being a used car dealership owner. I think it is a great indicator that we are at the end of a long bull market and it goes to show how peoples' phycology works. Back in 2011 nobody would dare to open a small business even though it was the best time to get started. Fast forward to 2021 everybody became a business owner and an investor even though it is the best time to sell it all and stand on the sidelines for oppurtunities.

If the dollar collapses, those holding US treasury bonds will experience something never yet experienced in American history. And that is their treasury bonds being worthless. You could have a billion dollars worth of treasury bonds that evaporate overnight into nothingness. That could signal some kind of civil war / collapse of the US government. Now we know what happened in Venezuela with their bolivar that collapsed overnight and turned millionaires into the poor. That’s a 2nd world country so it’s not far fetched for it to happen to the US. This is why so many people believe in alternative assets like gold and crypto. But it would be a strange world if you don’t have a currency to measure these alternative assets. But they’d still be worth something and would eventually be measured by new fiat currencies. I do not believe the US government can just accumulate endless debt. The time will run out and countries like China will no longer want to carry this debt. And US just can’t keep printing money to no avail. It could bankrupt the country. If credit agencies completely lose faith in the US currency, that will be the beginning of the end of the US dollar.

No, you don’t have to pay your debt back if it’s credit card debt. And you don’t have to file for bankruptcy to stop paying it. You can negotiate later to wipe it out if you want to correct your credit. But it is a lie that your wages will be garnished. That’s only if you owe the IRS money.

You can only dump your expensive toys if there are buyers. When buyers are scared.....no one gets anywhere. Even if you repo all the goods...how do you warehouse them when there are no buyers? Warehousing costs money. The loss slope is really steep.

[@user-ud6ui7zt3r]

If I am correct, the warehousing involves... • rent; • fire insurance; and • here in NYS, *inventory taxes* Here in NYS, the state looks upon inventory as a form of capital gain or income. For some time now, I have been guessing that the banks are going to (while keeping it very secret) stop doing repo for delinquent car loans. Why? For the very reason you said... it costs more to warehouse the repo-ed items. Now that I think about it, I don't think they warehouse the cars. Rather, they send them to HUGE parking lots, where the cars sit outdoors.

There are always buyers, I'm a buyer, I only buy when the price is too good to be true.

[@elorateq3672]

I've been through two of these cycles. First one, in the 90's stuck in a tiny flat with 2 toddlers & negative equity - interest rate was 18% on the mortgage. We'd just bought to "get on the housing ladder" a few years before. Second was the 2007-8 crash. People having to sell up at a loss (again). So many City folks losing their jobs, or worse, and impacts rippling through to other companies, suddenly finding sales figures tanking. If I had to manage my finances differently over my life again, I'd overpay my mortgage, not spend on "stuff" that's "want" rather than "need" racking up credit card debt. I was lucky to have a good redundancy package to pay off some of that debt in 2008, but it was a hard way to learn a lesson. All it takes is losing your job, or falling ill. Whilst you can insure against it, often that only lasts a year. Better to prevent it in the first place.

I just wanted to clarify your comment about student loan borrowers not paying down loans, when interest rates were at zero. The real travesty is that while interest rates were at zero for 10+ years, my $107K of student loans (Direct Loans…not private) averaged 7% APR, and the interest rate continued to increase annually.

John Maynard Keynes “Keynesian economics” was wrong and Milton Friedman was right. If you want to look at where we are going, look back at The Weimar Republic, Germany. They went from an economic powerhouse to being forced to pay back their debts and printed money to do it. It led to hyperinflation and is the best example of this.

[@AlgonquinPrincess]

That statement makes about as much sense as saying a site-built home, built in the '30's should be worth what they are today. Part of it is the devaluation of our dollar, or inflation. Really depends if the house includes land and what sort of improvements have been done. For all housing, it's location, location, location.

I had to buy a floor cutter for some laminate waterproof flooring to put in the house . They were out of the cheap ones had one left and I looked at it and I looked at the one that was almost twice as expensive and it looked so much better and it was also made in the USA. So I bought it and it works like a charm. Very heavy duty Cuts 45 degree angles goes right through that laminate flooring like it was butter and I'm glad I made the purchase. It will not only do my house but a couple of friends houses too. So we are going to share it. People have forgot how to share things but as long as nobody gets greedy and tries to keep something then all will work out well. I have found out that sometimes the most expensive part of the job doing it yourself is buying the tools. I also looked around for waterproof laminate flooring and Samsung an hour away at a place that sells mostly laminate flooring in a big Warehouse they had tons of it add over half the price off of what they would sell it to me in the Quad Cities in Davenport Iowa
