Welcome to the “new abnormal” of constant and horrific superstorms and other natural/unnatural disasters wreaking havoc on the nation’s worn-out old power grid.
Once the declining reserves of foreign oil stop flowing to America, well, we might as well walk away from our worthless over-mortgaged houses and just set up a tent in the woods. Not like we’ll have jobs to go to, or money to spend on more worthless plastic bullshit. God, capitalist civilization has turned out to be one comical, massive fraud! I’d laugh, if not for the fact that I’ll be there, too, roaming the wastelands wearing hockey pads and an Elmer Fudd hat as I search for gas and pet food, singing “We don’t need another hero.”Anyway, maybe now the right time to join everybody else and strategically default on the cracker boxes we’re all underwater on.
I am here to help you with these problems:
- Live in a modestly-sized, well-insulated home.
- Use the last of your “consumer credit” to buy some solar panels and a solar hot-water system.
- Cut up the cards and recycle the plastic and then recycle your mailbox, because you’re not going to repay these debts or any other debts, ever.
- Invest in a low-profile wind-energy generator that’ powered by burning our debased currency.
- If you have a pool, drain it and refill it with emergency medical supplies.
- Don’t watch teevee.
- Read all those book you never had time to read.
- Stay warm by dancing and petting your cats.
- Round up all the media people and politicians and bank managers and Wall Street executives aka Robber Barons and filthy rich people and dump them all into the (abandoned) corporate sports stadiums. Then they can use all those “dog eat dog” metaphors to stay alive.
- Build snow people. Worship it, or not.
- Give a hoot, etc.
