“The good news is that ‘only’ a minority of younger American adults favor Big Brother-style surveillance of our home life. The bad news is that we're discussing this because it's a disturbingly large share supporting such a totalitarian intrusion.
Worse, the idea seems to be gaining acceptance. We either need to get a handle on what's going on here, or else potentially suffer lives monitored by unblinking eyes of the state, imposed by popular demand.
‘Americans under the age of 30 stand out when it comes to 1984‐style in‐home government surveillance cameras. 3 in 10 (29 percent) Americans under 30 favor 'the government installing surveillance cameras in every household' in order to 'reduce domestic violence, abuse, and other illegal activity,' the Cato Institute's Emily Ekins and Jordan Gygi wrote last week.
‘Support declines with age, dropping to 20 percent among 30–44-year-olds and dropping considerably to 6 percent among those over the age of 45.’
The survey in question focused on central bank digital currencies (CBDCs)—government-sponsored alternatives to such digital money as bitcoin. CBDCs would offer the convenience of digital payments, but potentially without privacy protections, and could empower the state to control what people buy and sell.
‘Interestingly, more than half (53 percent) of those who support the United States adopting a CBDC are also supportive of government surveillance cameras in homes, while only 2 percent of those who oppose a CBDC feel the same,’ add Ekins and Gygi. ‘This suggests there may be a common consideration that is prompted by both issues. Likely, it has to do with willingness to give up privacy in hopes of greater security.’"
“Insurance companies are pulling back on homeowners’ policies in vulnerable areas nationally out of fear of floods, storms and fires made worse by climate change and soaring costs of rebuilding.
American International Group is planning curbs on home-insurance sales to affluent customers in some 200 ZIP Codes across the U.S. at high risk of floods or wildfires, people familiar with the matter said. The states affected include New York, Delaware, Florida, Colorado, Montana, Idaho and Wyoming, the people said. AIG has already restricted new business in California.
In a little-noticed pullback, Farmers Group earlier this year stopped offering new home insurance policies in hurricane-prone Florida. A spokesman said that ‘with catastrophe costs at historically high levels and reconstruction costs continuing to climb,’ the pause was designed to help Farmers more effectively manage its risk exposure.
State Farm and Allstate, meanwhile, are pulling back from California’s home-insurance market. The shift is making it hard for some home buyers to get insurance and is sparking fierce wrangling over what is most to blame: climate change, inflation or regulations.
Insurers in California say regulatory curbs on pricing mean they can’t recoup an inflation-driven surge in rebuilding costs, as well as rising losses from wildfires.”
“Billionaire Ray Dalio, founder of Bridgewater Associates, said the US is seeing stubbornly high inflation along with elevated real interest rates.
‘We are at the beginning of a late, big-cycle debt crisis when you are producing too much debt and have a shortage of buyers,’ Dalio said Wednesday at the Bloomberg Invest conference in New York.
He said while interest rates won’t go much higher, the economy will get worse, and that could cause more internal strife if the US continues to have political fragmentation.
Dalio, 73, gave up control of Westport, Connecticut-based Bridgewater, which runs the world’s largest hedge fund, last year. He’s been focusing on building out his family office, and plans to set up a branch in Abu Dhabi.

“Big Brother Thursday,” Ripped From The Headlines. Things To Ponder:
“Big Brother Is Cool… He Keeps Us Safe!”
Isn’t it interesting that 30% of people under the age of 30 see the logic behind “the government installing surveillance cameras in every household' in order to 'reduce domestic violence, abuse, and other illegal activity?”
That should scare you…
A LOT.
If you’re under 30 or over 30 and you’re reading this, you need to watch this RIGHT NOW:
That’s how the government being “all in your business” ends up.

Over 30’s: Warn the younger generations… if they trade freedom for security they will get neither….
30 & Under: Read the sentence above.

“Everything Is Too Risky… No Insurance For You!”
Let’s get something straight, so we’re all on the same page:
THE CLIMATE IS ALWAYS CHANGING. THIS IS THE CALMEST IT HAS BEEN IN RECORDED HISTORY.
Now that we have that out of the way…
The insurance companies see so much risk, that they are just not insuring in certain places…
This is an economic issue… because the economy is on the brink of an implosion.
Expect that non-insuring thing to spread…
We’ve just scratched the surface…

“When The Bomb Diffuser Guy Is Running… You Should Keep Up…”
Ray Dalio, a billionaire, said the quiet part out loud today:
While grifters and poverty pimps are pushing the “hopium” to pick your pocket, the rich guy is saying this:
‘We are at the beginning of a late, big-cycle debt crisis when you are producing too much debt and have a shortage of buyers,’ Dalio said Wednesday at the Bloomberg Invest conference in New York.
He said while interest rates won’t go much higher, the economy will get worse, and that could cause more internal strife if the US continues to have political fragmentation.
What does he know that you don’t?
Apparently enough to focus on opening a branch of his family office in Abu Dhabi.
If the bomb diffuser guy is running, you should keep up.
You need to be prepared… there’s just too much crazy stuff happening.
We’ve found the 4Patriots solar generators to be light and easy to use. Plus, they are quiet and don’t require fuel.

What does this mean?
We’re moving quickly from what you say to what you think about saying making you an enemy of the state.
This isn’t a left vs right statement.
You don’t know if WHAT YOU SAY OR DO NEXT will be the wrong thing.
Just like 1984.
