The coming Crash before the new life :0)
53
Well if anyone thought, the crash of 2008 was bad, it was only a tremor to what is truly coming. You can only borrow so much and then the banks cry enough.
Debt is only a reflection of the state of any economy. When an individual or country has to rely on an outside source to survive then it or they have lost their independence. The truth is if we all had just spent enough- just enough to meet our needs and left our wants aside greed would never have taken over.
When my wife meets my needs and I demand more then I`m taxing our relationship beyond the purpose it was intended for. If she chooses to take on that burden then not only will she suffer but also those who are in direct relationship to her as she cannot give them the attention they deserve as she is already over taxed with my needs.
At this point she has one of two choices ,stand her ground with me , say no your being selfish or yield to my selfish desire`s surrendering her indpendance . I actually lose more of mine also as I rely on her and not mine.
That is just two people and they can affect multitudes of future generations because of their selfish inactivity and social ir-responsibility.
The same thing happened 1000`s of years ago in the garden of Eden one selfish act by two people whose needs were met, wanted more and paid a huge price that affected us all to this day.
In the beginning all God wanted was a simple relationship where everybody’s needs were provided for. When people stop playing the blame game of looking for a scapegoat, admit to their part in this coming fiasco , humble then selves before God by putting their faith in his hands, then and only then can we truly start on the road to recovery by allowing Him to bless us without High interest and Taxation.
His life, love, help, grace, and salvation were paid for over 2000 years ago by giving his only son to set us free from our current predicament so that we can truly live a life free from fear, guilt, and pain.
Just go to some place where you can be alone with him and say
“Jesus please if your real please make your self-known to me, I can’t do this anymore by myself I need your help”
, or any other words you choose to use: 0)
He will meet you right where you’re at, that’s how personal he is…I write from personal experience not what man or religion has dictated…He came to set you free…Give Him a shot…Have a great weekend!!!

Quite an Interesting Hub Mike, along with Simple Basic Thoughts about Life...I enjoyed the read.
I've always thought being in debt was like being in prison. Unfortunately, most of have some type or another...Thanks for the reminder, though. S.
Voted up all the way ! thanks for sharing
Thank you for sharing these important insights! The economic problems in America reflect a deeper problem with our spiritual condition. If we don't find our satifaction with God we'll look to other things to fill that void. There's alot to this, selfish poeple are never satified, givers are always happier. Dependancy and selfishness reflect a disease of the soul!
Hi Honey,,,, you've done such a great job here; even your pictures tell the story! You are a very talented writer! I love you!!!
loved the application of the economy of relationships
I agree with b. Malin. I also believe if the gov't would put God back into the gov't and schools things would change for the better. "Behold the birds of the air, for they neither sow, nor do they reap, nor gather into barns: and your heavenly Father feedeth them. Are not you of much more value than they?" Maybe the Federal Gov't needs some old time religion!
Good Analogy Mike!
Cut, cap and balance. The only way to make the federal government live within its means is a balanced budget amendment.
The American tax payer wants one, our elected officials act like its poison.
Great Hub.

Hi mikeq107. I love how you made the connection from the economy to a "co-dependent" vs healthy relationship to the origins of "co-dependence" in the Garden!
The headlines read "China Tells U.S. It Must ‘Cure Its Addiction to Debt’"
Once again addiction and co-dependence caught holding hands!
Thanks for the excellent analogy that living beyond our means is like "When my wife meets my needs and I demand more then I`m taxing our relationship beyond the purpose it was intended for."
I have to admit I have some dread for the financial news tomorrow. I thought about taking all my money out of retirement and putting it under my mattress. I decided to just buy low for awhile, and be thankful I have a mattress. We were hit hard by the first wave of this recession; another one would be disheartening but not insurmountable. Thankfully, we made a decision not to "up size" when things were going well, because we really did have, and still do have, all we need. Thanks for the reminder mikeq107.
Love it, Mike! You make the point and yet it is so personal. We all have choices to make. Thanks for pointing us in the right direction.
A very well spoken hub. I agree that if it wasn't for greed things would be better off. God is there to help us out if we just allow it. Thanks for sharing this insight!
