My Great Recession Forecast - Update

I thought I'd post this response to a friend demanding I forecast the economy today. He has recently made a bold decision to get out of real estate. And following the China tariff war, I'd commented that his action might have been good timing. 

But who actually knows? All I can say is that to 'face the Dragon' head on is the best way to deal with the unknown. And to avoid denial of prevailing conditions when they make me feel uncomfortable.

See here for my long running detail and rationale. 2026 Great Recession Roadmap

The crypto aspect is lagging somewhat. But the proximate cause of every great recession is not that relevant. And is largely a smoke screen for the underlying root cause, to help the perpetrator escape from complicity, of course! That is to say: 

  • The People, not wealth and power
  • Speculating systemically in Real Estate
  • Because policy for the distribution of wealth makes that the least risky approach
  • Notwithstanding its obvious moral and ethical questions, one has to, to protect the household under these enforced legal conditions

"My apologies, I didn't realise you asked - if the Great Recession comes early "it might have been a good decision". 

But... I'm still gunning for the end of 2026 early 2027. With a huge boom prior to that. 

Now... If Trumps crazy policy of zero tariffs works out, which it might, America leads the world. There will be a huge boom without too much doubt. 

And... this boom will feed indirectly yet ultimately into real estate, as always. Think 2008. This will be bigger. 

I've no idea if this forecast will play out. It's based on historical cyclical activity and the idea has been led well by a Mr. Fred Harrison for several decades. But it is my forecast and I'm sticking to it for now. If I'm wrong, I will confess it openly. I've been running with it for 15 years already.

Is that satisfactory?"

PETITION: Government to Indicate Countries of the UK Are Open to Accede to the US

A Dialogue on the UK's Accession to the United States Executive Summary This initiative seeks to foster a formal dialogue regarding the potential accession of the countries of the United Kingdom , to the United States , as individual states.  Simply put, this petition is asking the government to start a conversation about the benefits of leaving the UK and joining the United States. The objective is to evaluate the benefits to citizens and stakeholders, encouraging a constructive discourse on the political, economic, and social implications of such a union. If Wales , Northern Ireland , Scotland , or  England were to leave the United Kingdom, it would end their system of constitutional monarchy and parliamentary democracy . Instead, if they joined the United States as separate states, they would govern themselves under the U.S. federal system while receiving its protection. This proposal recognises that immediate change is unlikely but urges a serious conversation to addres...

Facing Draco, Mining Dorado - The 2026 Great Recession

This is a proposal to show how the 18.6 year real estate cycle is a hang over from times where the mechanics of the lunar month were used by high priests of the time to forecast ancient agricultural cycles - what we would today call a business cycle always culminating in a financial crisis and great recession. The 18.6 year astronomical period is governed by the intersection of lunar and solar eclipses. It is known scientifically as the Saros Cycle. Where all 3 harmonics of the orbit of the moon coincide once every 18.6 years. The ancient scholars knew this and had been measuring it for aeons. And the politicians of the time used it to name the day when the economy had to be deliberately reset by fiat. This reset was necessary because they noticed around 19 years is as long as an economy can survive when being unjustly abused by its people. Any longer making it too late to recover on its own. And without the reset much worse effects emerge. They knew this. They did not know why. They j...

The 450 Volt Truth: From Orwell to Obedience

A Complete Thread on Dystopia, Milgram, and Breaking the Agentic State - Why People Act Irrationally and Often Violently When a Tribal Social Structure and Its Hierarchy Are Brought Under Serious Scrutiny This is a tricky topic. Please read the Obedience Glossary of Terms before proceeding Executive Summary This piece was written from a long conversation with Grok. I had to interrogate the AI quite a bit. And was astonished at how it produced such intelligence. I've included the most pertinent parts. Do not be fooled into thinking this is just another Orwell analysis. That is just setting the scene well. For what comes later on the agentic state and how power uses it to control the masses.  It may not have all the answers. It might wrong. A lot of it is very hard to believe is happening. But it still seems to fit the bizarre world of system wide dissonance we all live and partake in today, better than all the alternatives. So deserves your continued attention. By all means make yo...
