17 SIGNS OF AMERICA’S ECONOMIC RUIN

EDITOR'S NOTES

This isn’t just another downturn—it’s a controlled demolition of the American economy. The elites are pulling the rug out, crushing the middle class, and paving the way for a digital feudal state where you’ll own nothing while they own everything. Store closures, layoffs, and soaring debt aren’t accidents—they’re part of the plan. And the next phase? Central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), social credit scores, and total financial control. This isn’t paranoia—it’s the endgame. Here are 17 chilling signs that the economic avalanche is here, and why you must act NOW to protect yourself.

THE SIGNS OF IMPENDING ECONOMIC DOOM

1. The Masses Are Losing Confidence in the System

Consumer confidence just took its biggest dive since 2021. When people stop believing in the economy, they stop spending. When they stop spending, businesses collapse. And when businesses collapse… well, you see where this is going.

2. The Market Manipulators Can’t Hide the Fear

The University of Michigan’s consumer sentiment index is in freefall. Even the number crunchers in academia can’t spin this one—it’s getting harder for the elites to gaslight you into believing that everything is fine.

3. Retail Bloodbath: The First Dominoes Are Falling

Retail sales just plummeted by the most in two years. This isn’t just “seasonal adjustment.” This is the slow death of consumer-driven capitalism. Small businesses? Toast. Your local economy? On life support.

4. Walmart’s Warning: Even the Big Players Are Hurting

When the world’s biggest retailer predicts a drop in profits, you know something is seriously wrong. Walmart sees the writing on the wall, and so should you.

5. The Housing Market Is A Dead Man Walking

Sales of existing homes just cratered by nearly 5%. With mortgage rates skyrocketing and wages stagnating, soon only the ultra-rich will own property. Homeownership was once the foundation of the American Dream—now it’s a luxury for the elite.

6. The Cost of Living is Suffocating Us

Nearly 70% of single adults are struggling to pay rent or their mortgage. The bankers and landlords are bleeding us dry while the government prints money to bail out corporations. Where’s your bailout?

7. Corporate Guillotines: The Job Massacre is Here

Starbucks: 1,100 layoffs.
Southwest Airlines: 1,750 gone.
Blue Origin: 14,000 workers discarded like trash.
Chevron: Slashing 20% of its workforce.

Big business is cutting costs—not by taking a pay cut at the top, but by throwing workers into the unemployment abyss.

8. The Retail Apocalypse Accelerates

Forever 21—once a staple of American malls—is closing another 200 stores. The shopping centers of the past are turning into ghost towns.

9. Joann Fabrics: Another One Bites the Dust

Joann Inc., a company that’s been around for 82 years, is shutting down every single store. If a decades-old retailer can’t survive, what chance does your favorite local business have?

10. 15,000 More Stores Will Disappear in 2025

Coresight Research is predicting a record number of store closures this year. But don’t worry, Amazon and their robot workforce will be happy to sell you everything you need—until they decide you don’t deserve it anymore.

11. National Debt: The Noose Tightens

The U.S. household debt has now passed $18 TRILLION. That means we’re deeper in the hole than ever before, and rising interest rates are making it impossible for the average American to keep their head above water.

12. The Government’s Spending Addiction is Killing Us

Since 2009, the U.S. national debt has ballooned by $26 trillion. We’re now paying over $1 trillion a year just in interest payments. That’s not just unsustainable—it’s terminal.

13. The Fed’s House of Cards is Collapsing

The Federal Reserve’s manipulation of interest rates is ensuring that you’ll never be able to escape the cycle of debt slavery. They printed money like drunken sailors for years, and now they’re jacking up rates to squeeze the middle class dry.

14. The Banking System is One Shock Away from Meltdown

With inflation still burning, small and mid-sized banks are on the edge of collapse. When the next major financial crisis hits, the only ones who will get rescued are the ones too big to fail. Everyone else? Left in the dust.

15. The Plan: Destroy, Consolidate, Control

None of this is accidental. They create the crisis, let it play out, and then ride in with a “solution.” And what’s the solution? A total transition to Central Bank Digital Currencies (CBDCs)—where every dollar you spend is traceable, taxable, and, if you step out of line, erasable.

THE FINAL WARNING

This isn’t just an economic downturn. It’s the final phase of a long-planned financial coup. If you’re waiting for the government to fix this, you’re already lost. They aren’t here to help you—they’re here to control you.

Your savings? Inflation is erasing them.
Your job? Disposable.
Your property? They’ll tax it into oblivion or regulate it out of reach.
Your freedom? Soon to be programmable via a digital dollar.

So what do you do? You prepare. You get your money out of vulnerable banks. You start stacking real assets. You take control of your food, your finances, and your future.

Time is running out. The avalanche has started. Will you be buried, or will you get out in time?
