Stock market

The biggest thing I see that we need to remember is that stock market wealth is only paper wealth... it can disappear in moments. We lift it up and call stock owners the wealthiest in the world. What really determines wealth is what is owned, debt-free, and will remain in economic disasters. The housing "recession" was a warning to get things in order. Our national debt and the struggling governments in our nation (USA) are a warning we need to think about... it is causing the legalization of crimes to avoid the costs of policing and courts and prisons, it is causing our government to ignore what is essential to our global life to be compromised for POTENTIAL tax revenues, it is making our people weak because the government is the only place they think they can turn to for help and changing the relationship every citizen has with our national economy... and so much more. The pandemic, lockdowns, and economic effects we face today have shown us how fast our lives can change. When businesses fail, their stock has no value. A "stimulus" looks a lot like the manipulation of the market in this historical film. How close is the next (GLOBAL) depression? Who will survive it? How can the little people, who lost everything in the crash, find help in a society that has broken families and isolated people with a reduced relationship with GOD and fellow believers? If we are, or become, dependent on a broken government, where will the money for all the "programs" established by previous generations and abused by previous governments come from? This is our world... the details are different... how will we survive?
