Absolutely concur, Allen.
I'm "early GenX" (if those crap categories are to be believed). As Reagan was pursuing his Voodoo Economics campaign of converting the US from a productive economy to a speculative and consumerist/addiction-based one, at the behest of his handlers in Hollywood, Wall Street, and the City of London...
...I regularly read the financial press to see what they were saying, though as a grad student (late '80s) I didn't have any money to speak of. But I was trained in quant and qual, and I was disturbed by what I was seeing (not to mention the job offers that barreled in, trying to get me to lend my skills to this satanic global operation; I said no again and again).
The one theme in those narratives that got my attention, and I never forgot, was the open discussion of how the model they were setting up would play out in the future.
They outright discussed how "baby boomers" who did what they were instructed, and saved, and invested, and etc., would one day crash the system when it was time to take money out of it. They were saying this when the youngest "boomers" were in their 40s.
This cabal had the power to use central banking to systematically devalue currency (so that today being a "millionaire" is the equivalent of being a $345,000-aire in 1980), but the goal was always to manage national economies in an extractive manner. Globalist piracy.
In other words, a future crashing of the system was always intended, and expected. The "covid" wealth transfer was in anticipation of it, and the geronticide, in my estimation, a main goal. I completely agree with you.
