Vice-President Elect Joe Biden: US Economy in Danger of “Totally Tanking’ [1]. His solution? More “stimulus”. Just as I warned, the Mother of All Bailouts (MOAB [2]) will continue to grow to gargantuan proportions that will inevitably spawn stagflation. Mark my words: Deflation in the short term, and mass inflation in the long term will be the hallmarks of the emerging Second Great Depression. Oh, speaking of inflation, SurvivalBlog reader Bill N. sent us this propaganda piece from the 1930s, archived on YouTube [3]. Back then, just $4 billion was considered a massive economic stimulus. My, my! How times have changed.
