Governments produce scarcity by shutting off pipelines, shutting down farming operations, taxing productivity and deliberately causing food shortages and inflation. Money printing steals savings from everyone, creating scarcity of the purchasing value of dollars previously earned. Overzealous government regulation shuts down farming and food production, leading to artificial scarcity, food price inflation and global famine. NATO’s economic sanctions against Russia, furthermore, have devastated supplies of fertilizer and natural gas for Western Europe, leading to artificial scarcity of energy that will result in freezing buildings, cold water and devastating energy prices this coming winter: https://citizens.news/651591.html

An inverted US Treasury yield curve almost always heralds recession, but the yawning gap between high short-term funding costs and falling long-term borrowing rates may accelerate the economic downturn it presages. From a banking sector perspective, the inverted curve, combined with near-9% inflation [+20% inflation rate if calculated correctly: www.shadowstats.com] and post-2008 regulation - the deepest, highest, and toughest in decades, respectively - offers cause for concern: https://www.investing.com/news/stock-market-news/column--deep-us-curve-inversion-hastens-the-recession-it-predicts-mcgeever-2869445

Czech President Miloš Zeman has blamed “green madness” for the energy crisis and warned that the abolition of cars with internal combustion engines will only prolong the agony. “The abolition of cars with internal combustion engines will lead to the advent of far more demanding electromobility. The biggest consumers of electricity will be electric cars with a short range and a high price” he stated: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/im-afraid-czech-president-blames-green-madness-energy-crisis

JIM STONE COMMENTS: I have been following the Russia situation quite closely for some time, and the only thing that can explain what is going on is that Russia is playing a game, in lock step with the West - Russia is taking orders. The most important data with Putin is that he has gone around everywhere, to all the ceremonies, IS a member of the WEF and that as a result, he's probably role playing. He will do what he is told. So at a time when things should be winding down, he's escalating the conflict in ways which appear to me to be unnecessary. Why? He's probably setting up a false flag. And the grand crowning jewel of "911" would be to blow a 5.8 gigawatt nuke plant to the moon, while weather mod carries the results over Europe. That would give all the kiddies a GREAT reason to abandon homes and FOLLOW ORDERS. FACT: THERE IS TOO MUCH SHIT GOING ON WITH THAT NUKE PLANT. RUSSIA HAD CONTROL, AND THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR IT, UNLESS IT IS WANTED. RUSSIA WENT IN AND TOOK THAT B*TCH, THEY HAD THEIR OWN WORKERS THERE, WTF IS THE PROBLEM??? Fact: Russia could smash down a security zone around that place that turned it into alcatraz. If there are problems now, RUSSIA WANTS THEM. What is the end game? YOU GUESS.

Belarusian aircraft have been re-equipped to carry nuclear weapons, President Alexander Lukashenko told the media on Friday.

This is Not a 'Recession'! This Is A Total Collapse of the Financial System To Bail Out the Globalists Who Want To Enslave Us: https://vaccineimpact.com/2022/this-is-not-a-recession-this-is-a-total-collapse-of-the-financial-system-to-bail-out-the-globalists-who-want-to-enslave-us/

The collapse is engineered to create crisis conditions so frightening that they expect the majority of the public to submit to a collectivist hive mind lifestyle with greatly reduced standards. This would be accomplished through UBI, digital currency models, carbon taxation, population reduction, rationing of all commodities and a social credit system. The goal, in other words, is complete control through technocratic authoritarianism: https://archive.ph/XXRzp

How do nations become wealthy? Many are blessed with abundant natural resources. Some specialize in unique trade skills and crafts. Timber, mining, fishing, sugar, rum, narcotics, cotton, silk, agriculture, conquest, manufacturing, oil, industry, banking, and so on — depending on the century and the region, nations have attained tremendous wealth in myriad ways. Notice that no nation has managed merely to print money and tax its citizens on the path to prosperity. Real wealth cannot simply be conjured from thin air. There must be recognized value in what a nation and its citizens possess. More than any other source for national wealth, however, one towers above the rest: innovation. The ability of the human mind to create something new and valuable provides society with wealth creation. If innovation produces wealth, why aren't all nations wealthy? Because too many nations fail to value innovators or encourage innovation. Without fundamental property rights, strong social institutions, and a dependable legal system, potential inventors have few incentives to build anything new. Humans struggling merely to survive in the world do not waste time, labor or resources on projects that offer no prospect for future reward. Humans working as servants to the state under centrally controlled economies have no incentive to innovate: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/great-reset-blueprint-destroying-freedom-innovation-prosperity

Evil is evil, and it’s manifesting in so many all across our culture—in every way. It involves falsehoods, it involves lies and changing morality on sexuality. It involves everything. Two thousand years ago, this is all they had. It was possessed back then. So, when Jesus sent the Gospel into the pagan world, it was a clash of spirits and principalities of gods. There is the One True God, and then there are the false gods. The Bible says we do not war against flesh and blood. We are not against people. We war against principalities. So, when the gospel comes in, there is this huge war. The pagans are trying to kill the Christians or you worship our gods. That’s why they were trying to kill them because Christians would not worship the gods. It was a war of the gods, but at the end of the day, the Gospel prevailed and the gods departed. The temples were emptied out. The shrines were abandoned. The gods of the ancient world were gone, but we are not just talking about gods, there are spirits behind them—demonic spirits. They don’t end, they stay there. So, the question is what would happen if the gods or the evil spirits returned to America and returned to the world? The fact is they have returned… If western civilization was possessed by the evil spirits, the Gospel got rid of them. It was the greatest exorcism in history. What happens if that nation ever turns away from God? If it ever opens the door? These spirits are coming back. These ancient spirits or principalities are going to come back to our culture, to the West and to America, and they are going to come back to repossess it: https://usawatchdog.com/only-way-to-save-america-is-turn-back-to-god-jonathan-cahn/

Starting all the way back in April, some US defense officials had been expressing concern that Ukraine weapons shipments sent from Washington were entering a big “black hole” once they cross the border into the conflict – given there appeared little to no oversight or accountability in terms of arms and serial number tracking. Ukrainian government officials have taken pains to to try and assure Western allies and international press that they are indeed carefully monitoring the weapons and munitions provided from allies, also to ensure they don’t end up on the black market or in the hands of unauthorized militants or terrorists. But now we have the closest thing thus far to confirmation that indeed there’s a lack of necessary oversight, given on Thursday the Pentagon’s acting Inspector General Sean O’Donnell told Bloomberg that while he believes Ukrainian forces are using up all that they’ve been given by the US, it remains that there’s little “fidelity” as to where the weapons actually end up. This is due in large part, he explained, to the Ukrainians tracking external arms via hand receipts. For this reason he’s looking to trace, test, and audit whether the Ukrainians are properly logging US-supplied military hardware. He says the Pentagon is on “alert” – looking evidence of gaps, missing weapons, and lack of oversight in the system: https://southfront.org/pentagon-ig-doubtful-ukraine-is-tracking-us-supplied-arms-will-conduct-audit/

The video from the front lines shows a suicidal attack of Ukrainian armored group on the positions of the marines of the Pacific Fleet of the Armed Forces of the Russian Federation. As a result of the attack, several units of Ukrainian armored vehicles and vehicles transporting personnel were destroyed: https://s1.cdnstatic.space/wp-content/uploads/2022/08/att.mp4

Another five Russian artillery systems were destroyed by Ukrainian forces on Saturday, August 27, according to Ukraine’s military update on Russia’s combat losses since February 24. Three Russian Armoured Personnel Carriers (APCs) were destroyed as well as three more Russian tanks: https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/08/28/russian-artillery-systems-destroyed-ukraine/

Russia is transferring a new batch of heavy military equipment to the occupied Crimea: it was noticed near the Crimean bridge. Among the equipment were seen: tanks T-72 and T-80; 152-mm and 122-mm 2C19 Msta-S and 2S1 Gvozdika; infantry fighting vehicles, trucks, tanks with fuel and engineering machines: https://euroweeklynews.com/2022/08/27/watch-russia-spotted-transferring-heavy-military-equipment-to-occupied-crimea/

The Russian military have turned Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Power Plant (NPP) into a military base, putting the entire continent at risk.

Russian Oil Oligarch Who Criticized Ukraine War 'Falls' Out Of Hospital Window To His Death: https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/russian-oil-oligarch-who-criticized-ukraine-war-falls-out-hospital-window-his-death

Russian Gazprom has officially halted gas supplies to Europe via the Nord Stream 1 pipeline, cutting off flows completely to Germany: https://www.zerohedge.com/energy/russia-officially-halts-natural-gas-flows-nord-stream-1

Russian state-owned energy giant Gazprom confirmed on Tuesday it had cut off off gas supplies to French utilities company Engie. The Paris-based firm has failed to pay for July gas deliveries in full, the Saint Petersburg major explained. Gazprom informed Engie that it would cease the gas deliveries starting September 1 until the moment it gets the payment for the already supplied gas in full, the energy giant said in a statement. It also noted that the French side had failed to make the payment by Tuesday evening, making any further gas deliveries impossible under Russian law: https://www.rt.com/business/561840-gazprom-engie-gas-cut/

▲ JIM STONE COMMENTS: So that stupid French energy minister announces Russia will cut the gas BEFORE Russia did, DID NOT PAY FOR THE GAS and then called being disconnected for nonpayment Russia using gas as a "weapon". Cute. I see how that works!!! Gotta beat those war drums somehow!

Most likely, a huge global storm is starting.

Reports state that the first tranche of Iranian drones intended for use in Ukraine has made it to Russia, confirming rumors that have been swirling for weeks, and some U.S. officials have assessed that the delivery is only just the beginning as ‘hundreds’ more are expected to be imported on an undisclosed timeline. Mohajer-6s and the Shahed-series of unmanned aerial vehicles, or UAVs, reportedly make up at least some of the initial shipment, and different variations of the types are capable of various operations including conducting surveillance, strikes, and electronic warfare missions: https://www.thedrive.com/the-war-zone/the-drones-russia-is-reportedly-receiving-from-iran-for-its-ukraine-war

On September 7, the Russian Ministry of Defense officially confirmed the control of Russian-led forces of the town of Kodema located to the west of Svetlodarsk. After months of heavy fighting, the assault units of the Wagner group completed the mop up operation on the western outskirts of Kodema, establishing full control over the town.

Ukrainian and Russian sources reported kinetic activity in two main areas along the Kherson Oblast frontline on September 6- northwest of Kherson City near the Mykolaiv-Kherson border and in western Kherson Oblast along the Inhulets River that runs between Mykolaiv and Kherson Oblasts. The Ukrainian General Staff reported that Ukrainian troops repelled an attempted Russian advance near Lyubomirivka, about 25km northwest of Kherson City. Ukraine’s Southern Operational Command similarly noted that Ukrainian troops fought against Russian assaults near Schmidtove and Ternovi Pody, both about 25km north of Kherson City and along the Mykolaiv-Kherson Oblast border: https://www.understandingwar.org/backgrounder/russian-offensive-campaign-assessment-september-6

Just to be clear: what they really want is your money, and for you to be totally dependent on their system and their hijacked economy, and if you are not, then they want you dead or at the very least punished for being independent and practicing individual sovereignty. Communist governments absolutely hate and fear sovereignty, much like fascist governments.
