God Speaks – Part III
By Bill Bonner
Tuesday, October 26, 2021
BALTIMORE, MARYLAND – It's the most important trial ever held: Man vs. God. And we're now in our third day of God's testimony.
God is holding up well, despite the grave charges against Him. Calm. Relaxed. Large and in charge.
The allegation against Him is that He created a world of planned obsolescence. If this is true, U.S. leaders cannot be held responsible for the decline of America. It was "in the cards," as God put it in His testimony yesterday.
But is it true? Did the deciders have no choice? Did they have to put America $28 trillion in the hole… and into today's "inflate or die" trap?
Who's really at fault?
In today's testimony, God names names… clarifies the difference between useful idiots and the other variety… and warns that not only is the U.S. in decline, all of Western Civilization may be headed for collapse.
So, please turn off your phone… take a seat… and prepare for… well… a Revelation…

Our world is staring down what may be the worst supply chain crisis in human history.
And it's not something that will just "go away" in a matter of weeks.
The previous shortages we saw in 2020 will be nothing compared to what is to come.
Bloomberg calls it "Supply Chain Hell."
NPR calls it "Industrial Hell."
The New York Times calls it a "Disaster."
And the true culprit behind this new crisis may surprise you.

Yes, it's Me again… God. And yes, I promise to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, so help me… well, nevermind.
Yesterday, I was explaining My limits… and how everything comes with a fuse attached. "Planned obsolescence" Bill Bonner called it in his opening remarks.
Everything I created goes away… seasons, empires, people – everything.
But I ask you to imagine a world where no one died… no politician ever lost an election… no business failed… and no chef ever lost his job for poisoning his customers.
That would not be a very nice world. It would be boring. And pointless. If nothing ever changed… and there were no bad consequences for bad actions… there would be no reason to get up in the morning… or to brush your teeth. It's only because actions have consequences that you bother to act at all.
No… I'm not going to take that charge seriously. Change is the nature of My world… and I'm proud of it.

Useful Idiots
There are always consequences. And limits.
But there are soft limits. And there are hard limits.
We've mostly been talking about soft limits. Empires fail, for example, but they don't fail on their own. You can make a mess of your own life, all by yourself. But bringing down an empire… that requires leadership.
In that respect, America seems especially lucky. She found four of the biggest jackasses in the country to help grease the skids.
Bush, Obama, Trump, and Biden. I created them all. But you voted for them. And they were perfect for the job; the kind of "useful idiots" that history needs.
Bush spent $8 trillion on his dumbass War on Terror.
Obama added another $9 trillion to the U.S. debt pile bailing out Wall Street after the mortgage financing bubble burst.
Then, along came Trump. In a way, he was the worst of the lot. Not only did he add another $8 trillion in debt, he discredited the only thing that might stop the collapse – intelligent, clear-headed conservativism.
Now, in the U.S., if you call yourself a "conservative," people think you must wear buffalo horns.
And now Biden. Geez… really?
Drive people into opposing camps… get them fighting over removing statues and sex change operations for children… keep real interest rates below zero (even during a boom)… add trillions more to the debt… and talk up war with China – is there a worse formula for a declining empire?

Have America's top booksellers refused to carry Bill Bonner's final book?
You won't find new copies of Win-Win or Lose at Barnes & Noble… and not a single copy is floating around on eBay.
In fact, the only used copy we could find was going for $79 on Amazon.
Which is why Bill recently authorized us to take drastic steps to put a copy in your hands essentially free – as part of this limited time offer.

Yes, they're morons. But at least these presidents – and their backers – were doing My work… taking a great empire down a peg.
That's what I mean by "soft limits." They have fuses, too… but they need humans to light them.
But humans are not completely powerless. Trump came into office with a mandate to "make America great again." Then, Biden was elected to reverse Trump's policies. But neither broke with the past; instead, they both held to the same ruinous course.
Imagine what would have happened if they had looked voters in the eye and spoken to them intelligently… explaining the limits they all faced.
And what if they tried to bring people together, instead of stirring up resentments and jealousies?
And what if either one had demanded a balanced budget from Congress… had brought the troops home… and ended the phony interest rates and printing-press money?
It doesn't always work. But humans can make a difference when they are confronted with these soft limits.

Hard Limits
So let's look at the other limits. The hard limits.
You can't get something for nothing; it doesn't matter what you think or what you say… matter and energy may be interchangeable, but nothing comes from nothing.
And here's another one: There are only 24 hours in a day. Again, Congress can pass all the laws it wants… it can't add a single second to the day.
Want another? No election was ever lost by underestimating the stupidity of the American public.
Ha ha. Just joking.
But there are some things over which you humans have no control at all. You think you are so smart because you invented Netflix and Facebook. But your brains have been getting smaller for the last 3,000 years. And that's not a joke.
And the progress you're so proud of? It depends more on Me than on you.

Millionaire's Big Prediction From Living Room Couch
Teeka Tiwari – America's No. 1 Investor – just made an outrageous prediction.
Recorded live from his living room couch…
He blasts Congress, reveals nasty truths about America…
And reveals one technology set to radically change our nation.
Already, 400,000+ viewers have checked it out.
WARNING: This video may make you furious.
Watch His Urgent Video Now -- Big Setbacks
Your species has been around ever since I made Adam and Eve some 200,000 years ago. Progress was painfully slow.
And there were some big setbacks. Empires fell. And sometimes, whole civilizations collapsed… and disappeared. The Anasazi, the Maya, the Indus Valley Civilization… And in the 13th century B.C., almost all the civilizations of the Ancient Mediterranean collapsed. Many vanished forever.
Yes, people do predictably unwise things. But there are also ice ages, droughts, floods, volcanic eruptions, solar pulses, asteroid impacts. And diseases.
(In passing… I will point out that trying to prevent illness by mandating vaccines may backfire. Humans have survived for so long not by avoiding diseases, but by getting them. That's why the people of North America were almost wiped out when Europeans arrived; they hadn't had their diseases.
The next iteration of the COVID virus might be a real killer – like the Plague of the 14th century A.D. With no deep, natural herd immunity, billions of people might be wiped out before a vaccine can be rolled out. Just saying…)
And there is energy. It takes energy to run a civilization. And all energy comes from Me.
We'll hear more about that tomorrow…
Regards,
Bill

A dear reader criticizes Bill's words on the death of former U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell… while another gives their view on our editor's "God versus man" conversation (catch up here, here and here)...
You have speculated that the vaccine did not work for Colin Powell and thus contributing to the impression that vaccines are not reliable. In this case, Colin Powell had other health issues which lowered his immunity, and this was probably why he chose to be vaccinated anyway.
I believe he had a form of cancer. Having a serious condition is stressful enough as stress hormones tend to lower one's immunity. Colin Powell's health status was public on the announcement of his death. Contracting COVID-19 was incredibly unfortunate.

While your "God speaks" column was amusing (as usual), are you actually saying that you believe in the existence of "god"? Like fiat currency, "god" was created by the mind of man – a figment of the human imagination.
People who claim to believe in "god" generally do so because they were told (as children) by their parents, teachers, or religious "leaders" that "god" exists, and have generally not reconsidered that position thereafter. Children naturally tend to believe what they are told, especially by those in positions of authority.
I believe that those who claim to be religious leaders are either liars or are delusional. It should reasonably be assumed that such leaders have considered for themselves whether or not "god" (by whatever name) exists. If they don't know for sure, then they are preaching something in which they do not believe.
If they do not believe in "god's" existence, then they are also liars... but hey, it's a job. If they believe that "god" actually exists, then they can only be considered delusional, and should be put somewhere that they can do no more harm to others.
Consider how many wars have been fought and how many people have died (and are still dying today) in the name of some religion or other. How sad!
Just as people are hoodwinked by the financial and political "elites," so they are also hoodwinked by religions, whether promised an afterlife or however many virgins in some imagined paradise…
I fully anticipate a lack of kindness in any replies, as people do not like their cherished views to be challenged. Doesn't make me wrong, though!
Please keep up your good work – I always enjoy your Diary, as you are both informative and amusing.

Last week, dear reader Fletcher E. said, "Capitalism is an experiment that has failed over and over again..." This week, others have chimed in with their opinions on the idea. And that debate continues in today's mailbag...
It never ceases to amaze me how someone as prescient and witty as Bill attracts morons like Fletcher E. It's clearly lost upon Fletcher that what's been happening in the U.S. for decades isn't really capitalism. It's been bastardized by the elites for the benefit of the few at the cost of the many.
Fletcher, and everyone in this country, should read Bill's last book, Win-Win or Lose, for a brilliant description of what capitalism is and should be.
– Dave J.
And lastly, praise for Bill's Diary…
I've been an avid reader of yours for several years and now I find your daily articles are about the only thing I enjoy reading. I appreciate the insight and the occasional snarky comments that make my day.
We are in a sad state of affairs with the federal government. I don't think it can be turned around, no matter what party is in charge. If we get lucky, maybe an earthquake will swallow up the entire east coast and we can start over! Thank you for the great reading material!
