Paul Krugman claims we're heading for Japan's lost decade. I think I agree more though that what we're really hading for is the utter collapse of Capitalism, in other words, Russia's lost half-decade as Dmitry Orlov points out.Good thing I've got that Mormon-and-German-Apostolic-Christian inspired 2 years of food supplies, from my upbringing. It might have been hard as an autistic interested in technology putting up with them in grade school and their 19th century ideas about family values and farming, but in the end, the pain may well be worth it.

Some say Japan's lost decade..but they didn't lose anything. One thing they lost is only illusion, so I guess they are more realistic right now. Illusion...they are somebody.Reality..they are one of them.
