The EVEN GREATER DEPRESSION Comntinues.

       Down here in Bucksnort, Tennessee, my friends have all been heating their homes with swamp gas. When the coal, oil and electricity gave out back in 2014, swamp gas was the only source of energy left. Not even the farm hands had any energy left to do their chores. Food is scarce, except for the occasional muskrat or possum and once in a while somebody shoots a bear. But in the winter, folks can always count on having a tall glass of ice water. Come Summer, good warm water will be available, so ya see, we still have our choices.
       The problems came about as a result of the fourteenth Amendment to the US Constitution and most specifically, the fourth section of the amendment. which clearly stated that "the validity of the public debt of the United States, authorized by law, shall not be questioned." Now it says more than that, but that's the part that covers our debts. But since Congress decided to ignore the Constitution and go ahead and ignore it's debts as well, we now find ourselves in the uncomfortable position in this the 2016th year of our lord of being broke.
       That means, not only are we broke, but we can't borrow any money to keep our ships and planes working. So now the Banana Republic of America, as folks have come to call it, is left to fend for itself. Now that's fine for us country folk who can find those possums and bears, but them city people, why they're in a lot of hot water, at least in the summer. Country people can find pretty much what ever they need to survive. Except maybe manufactured things like trucks and truck parts. That's because most of that manufacturing went over the sea years ago. Now we don't have any credit in those countries, so we can't buy what they make.
       Of course even if we had credit we probably couldn't buy anything because those countries crashed just like us and now they don't make anything either. A course they got it worse than us because they got fewer woodlands where bear and possum can grow. Now back to the city folk, they have started boiling furniture, like chairs and couches, to make soup. After all, there's not much need for couches anymore. Nosireebob,  you won't find any couch taiters in the cities anymore a cause there ain't no TV to watch nowadays.
