2024 = The Big Boom

Right now, we have 5 major catalysts in America. Any one of them can lead to a major change next year.

1. Inflation = the cost of living is ridiculous = groceries, rent, gas, etc... = all of it has doubled or tripled in price = middle class is disappearing and the lower class is growing.

2. Next Generation = many of us are concerned about kids these days = 3 years of lockdown because of the COVID outbreak didn't help = education seriously went into the toilet = plus, new tech toys have increased ADD issues and have made many kids tech addicts = all of this has made many kids difficult to deal with = violent and unmanageable.

3. Immigration = hundreds of people have entered America - illegals or refugees = immigration rules and regulations that applied to so many in the past have been tossed aside because of the flood of people that have come into America = this behavior has angered many citizens = both born citizens and properly nationalized citizens.

4. War = unrest in the world = fighting in various parts of the world has caused a major strain on America = the death toll is high in these warzones and there is no sign of peace in the future = brutal fighting is increasing the number of refugees trying to flee the slaughter = plus, we're sending financial aid - which is increasing our national debt even more.

5. Politics = extreme radicals are still about in large numbers = both sides have radicals = political fall-out is inevitable = no one working together to run the country = more gridlock and shut downs ahead of us.

It is worrisome that we can't seem to get our act together. Things just don't seem to be getting any better.

I hope that we survive the rough days ahead of us. There is talk of a serious population adjustment that will come in the next few years = severe drop in population. Any one of these issues above can cause a meltdown.

That is why it is so important to enjoy each day. Don't take life for granted. Be grateful for what you have right now.

Take care, LK
