Economics In 2022, A Picture Book

“Stay classy, San Diego!” – Anchorman

I think the Chairman of the Federal Reserve® is required by law to drive a Fiat®.

Recently, part of the revolution has been televised . . . the Dutch government has decided that farming is evil because it keeps people from eating bugs and living in the pods:

Of course, the Dutch have commies there, too:

But who thinks hunger is good, besides the commies at Antifa?  Oh, the United Nations:

Well, we know the UN never comes up with their own ideas, they’re too busy with waste and corruption.  So where did this idea come from?

Oh, yeah, the World Economic Forum.

Thankfully, they’re not at all evil, right?

Karl nods approvingly:

But the World Economic Forum® has plans to help, right?  How it started for Sri Lanka:

How it’s going, I mean they’ve had four years to implement The Plan:

But they’ll help Europe, right?

How it might end:

But the United States is not immune from economic illiteracy:

I’m sure this won’t put 40 million people on edge:

But Joe Biden is coming to the aid of the American people:

And Kamala is planning on how to leave Kabul Washington.

While all of this goes on, there are differing views on the economy:

At least Amazon® will help us:

But in the end, maybe we will come to an ethical conclusion:

Stay classy, America!

  1. “The Benefits Of World Hunger???”

    I’d like to relocate this author and Klaus Stavros Blofeld to Sri Lanka immediately. Theory is useless without practical application and real life experience.

  2. That one about “The year is 2031” and ends up about walking home eating bugs is silly.

    It doesn’t have to be your electric car, it just has to be a “smart car” that connects to the world as you drive around. Probably even your smartphone that allows your position to be constantly monitored like most can now.

    On a more serious note, good collection!

    1. It won’t be “your smart car”.
      Like they’d let Mundanes own one.
      It’ll be “your bus pass is declined so you can’t travel except by foot.”

      1. And there will be checkpoints for ID and travel papers and COVID passes for those trying to travel on foot.

  3. Agree completely on the country already being destroyed and just going through the motions waiting for the shooting to start. Keep on preparing as best you can folks and get the hell out of the cities (if possible)!

  4. Reduce the nicotine content of cigarettes, and you’ll find that smokers will smoke MORE in order to get their nicotine fix. Which will give them MORE of the harmful stuff in the cigarettes, and increase the bad health effects of smoking. It isn’t the nicotine that gives you cancer or emphysema.

    So higher cigarette sales, more tobacco taxes collected, lowered lifespan, less government money spent on health care. What government wouldn’t like that?

    And since that same government is cracking down on vaping as an alternative nicotine delivery device …
    Huh.

    Maybe it’s time to start growing your own tobacco.

    1. Real home grown tobacco still wouldn’t be good for you, although it would be much better than the product put out by the tobacco companies with all the added chemicals. I think I read somewhere there around 4,000 different chemicals added to tobacco. One recent additive, makes the cigarette go out if set in the ashtray for more than a minute. ( I guess that’s good if you’re the kind of person who will fall asleep while smoking in bed with a lit cigarette in your fingers.) The chemicals added to tobacco make it much more addictive and harder to quit.

      I’ve been a smoker for over 40 years. I’ve quit several times for a week or so, but always started back. Kicking cigarettes is harder than kicking heroin, it’s been said. I really need to quit, but it’s easier said than done. Anyone who says quitting is easy is full of it.

      If you know anyone who switched from full flavor to “light” cigarettes, you would notice that they will often smoke more to get their required daily dose of nicotine. It’s not so much the drug that hurts you as much as it is the tars and other additives that cause emphysema and COPD. Sure smoking can cause lung cancer, but I’ve known several people who died from lung cancer who never smoked a cigarette in their life. Some people are just born with a gene that makes them more susceptible to cancer.

        1. If people quit smoking, they’ll quit going outside into the sunshine for a smoke break, become vitamin-D deficient, and more susceptible to all sorts of respiratory diseases (and other illnesses). The protective effect of sunshine beats the harm of smoking … for a while.

      1. One method to quit smoking is the non-tobacco cigarettes and smoke a lot of them. It takes about three weeks to break the cravings and a week for the psychological break.

        Then comes the recovery and recuperation through diet, nutrition and a good aerobics program.

        Lots of yellow fruits and vegetables, squashes, carrots, bell peppers, apricots and peaches, itc.

    2. An acquaintance replaced her front lawn with an organic tobacco crop. She’s touting the unrecognized (sic) health benefits of nicotine, lol.

  5. Here’s a key picture about 2022 economics. This is a monster kraken from the bottom of the sea (megabanks JP Morgan Chase and Citi) coming to the surface and into view – not some nefarious new activity but instead their scam that has been going on for decades exposed by new reporting regulations.

    tl;dr: “That rising bar on the far right is nothing more than crime scene evidence.”

    1. I wonder if gutteguttegut will do his part by refusing to eat anything produced by the “fascists”.

  6. If you REALLY want to quit smoking, kick it by the indirect method of becoming super-well-nourished. Not so much by cutting out bad stuff but by making sure you INCLUDE all the good stuff. Check out the book “Skinny is Overrated.” Super healthy but delicious (written by an Italian-American doctor who treated diabetics in Harlem) and helps regulate blood sugar, which prevents nicotine cravings.
    Don’t even “try” to quit smoking; just become super-well-nourished. All the soothing bio-regulating benefits nicotine accomplishes for you will become non-issues, so tobacco becomes no longer so helpful nor significant. Your cravings will be mind-blowingly easier to manage.
    Just because it was never easy for you to quit BEFORE doesn’t mean it isn’t easy for some people. You could become one of them, now. The quitting-smoking thing could happen by accident. And yes, this does help addicts quit heroin. Can’t cite the study but it’s out there!
    Jeanne Marie Calment lived to be 122 years old, and smoked til she was 120 – quitting was what killed her, imho! She did NOT smoke modern cigs!
    Mangia Bene!!!

    Hope this helps someone! Maybe you……….

    1. I gave it up, and found that (for two weeks) if I just took a gram or so a day of piracetam (look it up) it took the cravings away . . .

  7. My G_d, it’s full of memes!

    Who’s that?
    Oh, my little friend Cupid
    Wearing a shirt that says “I’m with stupid.”

    I am reminded of an ingredient of Nipponese energy drinks some decades ago, before energy drinks were even a blip on the US radar: nicotine.

    Soon, I discovered that this rock thing was true
    Jerry Lee Lewis was the devil
    Jesus was an architect previous to his career as a prophet
    All of a sudden, I found myself in love with the world
    So there was only on thing that I could do
    Was ding a ding dang my dang a long ling long

    Domo arigato, Mr. Roboto

    Hontou ni, arigato gozaimasu, kampai!

  8. One of your readers said they feared a Sri Lanka in the US. We should be so lucky. The air will one day be full of gun smoke, as this country erupts into shoot outs from one end to the other. There are wolves, degenerates, and monsters at the helm, there is but one way to end their idiocy.
