When you spend 30 trillion dollars that you do not have, it is easy to create an illusion of prosperity. In 1995, the nation was obsessed with the O.J. Simpson trial, “Toy Story” was the biggest movie of the year, the Sony Playstation made its debut in the United States, and Bill Clinton was in the White House. At that time, the U.S. national debt was right on the verge of crossing the 5 trillion dollar mark. Today, the U.S. national debt is sitting at 36.2 trillion dollars. That means that we have added more than 30 trillion dollars to the national debt in just 30 years.

So what did we get for 30 trillion dollars?

We got the greatest party in the history of the world.

Over the past three decades, we have been enjoying an obscenely inflated standard of living that we did not deserve.

When the government spends money, it provides a short-term boost to the economy.  Those that get their hands on the money that the government spends end up using it to go shopping, repair their vehicles, eat at restaurants, etc.

If we could go back and pull 30 trillion dollars of extra government spending over the last 30 years out of the economy, we would be in a rip-roaring depression right now.

So for those of you that wish to avoid economic pain at all costs, you should thank our Congress critters for spending money like drunken sailors all these years.

But in the process, our leaders have destroyed America’s future.

We are broke, and we are absolutely drowning in debt.

The only way that we can meet our obligations is to go into ever larger amounts of debt.

Unfortunately, that cycle can only go on for so long before we reach a point where nobody wants to lend us money anymore.

If you have been paying attention to the bond market, you already know that there have been all sorts of red flags in 2025.

The clock is ticking.  But instead of getting our spending under control, Congress seems determined to ramp our spending up to a much higher level…

The package of tax-and-spending measures sent to the Senate, now officially called the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, could act like budgetary wolf bait. It would add around $3 trillion to debt levels over the next decade compared with existing estimates and $5 trillion if certain temporary features were made permanent, according to the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget.

For perspective, federal interest this fiscal year already will be more than the defense budget and more than Medicaid, disability insurance and food stamps combined.

If you are one of those that want to keep the party going for as long as possible, you probably support this bill.

But for those of us that want our children and grandchildren to actually have a future, we are absolutely horrified by what we are witnessing.

In fact, Elon Musk just called this bill a “disgusting abomination”…

Elon Musk is right.

Rand Paul has also spoken out against this bill, and he is right too.

What we have been doing to future generations of Americans over the past 30 years is beyond criminal.

It must stop.

If it doesn’t stop, it is just a matter of time before the entire system collapses.

We have been able to defy the laws of economics for many years, but now economic reality is catching up with us in a major way.

And even though we continue to spend giant mountains of money that we do not have, the illusion of prosperity that we have created is rapidly starting to crumble anyway.

This week, we learned that Disney is conducting “major layoffs”…

Major layoffs are underway Monday the Walt Disney Company, with several hundred employees impacted globally, Deadline has learned. The bulk of them are across divisions of Disney Entertainment, including marketing for both film and television as well as television publicity, casting and development. Also affected are Disney’s corporate financial operations.

Microsoft is even bigger than Disney, and they are conducting mass layoffs as well…

Microsoft Corp. cut hundreds more jobs just weeks after its largest layoff in years, underscoring the tech industry’s efforts to trim costs even as it plows billions of dollars into artificial intelligence.

More than 300 employees were told their positions had been eliminated on Monday, according to a Washington state notice reviewed by Bloomberg.

These latest layoffs by Microsoft are on top of the 6,000 job cuts that were revealed last month…

A Microsoft spokesperson said the latest headcount reduction is in addition to the 6,000 job cuts announced last month. “We continue to implement organizational changes necessary to best position the company for success in a dynamic marketplace,” the spokesperson said.

If you have a job that you value, hold on to it as tightly as you can, because a lot more people are going to be losing their jobs in the months ahead.

And that is really bad news, because we already have a major employment crisis in this country.

As I discussed the other day, nearly 1 out of every 4 Americans is “functionally unemployed” at this point.

Things are really tough out there right now.

In fact, things are so tough that Americans are eating meals at home at the highest level we have seen since the early days of the pandemic…

More Americans are cooking at home as growing economic concerns are forcing households to cut back, according to Campbell’s CEO Mick Beekhuizen.

Beekhuizen told analysts during the company’s third-quarter earnings call on Monday that consumer sentiment continued to soften throughout the quarter, with shoppers becoming even more deliberate about how they were spending money on food.

“A key outcome is a growing preference for home-cooked meals, leading to the highest levels of meals prepared at home since early 2020,” Beekhuizen said.

One way or another, we are going to have to take our medicine.

Either our leaders will have to get our financial house in order, or the bond market will force us to change.

But no matter how it plays out, nobody can deny that the party is ending.

It was fun while it lasted, but everybody knew that the wild spending would eventually have to come to an end.

Needless to say, the adjustment to our standard of living that we will soon experience will be exceedingly painful, and our society is not prepared for that at all.

The post 30 Trillion Dollars In 30 Years – The Greatest Party In The History Of The World Has Destroyed America’s Future appeared first on The Economic Collapse.

Did you know that we just witnessed the largest decline in U.S. imports in the entire history of our nation last month?  Unfortunately, things didn’t get any better this month.  In fact, during the final week of May imports at major ports on the west coast are down by almost a third compared to last year.  This is going to have a dramatic impact on our economy in the months ahead, and meanwhile a new crisis with China has just erupted.  The Chinese have been caught violating their 90 day trade agreement with the United States, and President Trump is extremely upset about this.  Of course the Chinese are extremely upset that President Trump is planning to increase arms sales to Taiwan.  Both sides deeply distrust one another at this stage, and if things continue to deteriorate our relations with China could soon resemble a gigantic dumpster fire.

According to the Census Bureau, U.S. imports fell by 68.4 billion dollars in April…

Indeed, last month, imports declined by a whopping $68.4 billion, according to advanced trade data released by the Census Bureau on Friday. This came after retailers stocked up on goods in March, aiming to get ahead of tariffs. But the stunning decline in imports could mean retailers have less of an inventory buffer, leaving them less able to avoid paying future tariffs — and that could lead to price increases for US consumers.

“I think there was an expectation that all of a sudden everything would start coming in again. I don’t think you’ve seen that huge rush to bring everything in again because I think folks are still being cautious on how this is going to proceed,” said Jonathan Gold, vice president of supply chain and customs policy at the National Retail Federation.

A lot less stuff is coming into this country, and so there will be higher prices and thinner stock levels at U.S. retailers during the months ahead.

On a percentage basis, the decline in imports that we witnessed last month was the largest in the entire history of the United States…

BREAKING: US goods imports fall -19.8% in April as President Trump’s “reciprocal tariffs” effectively halted trade with many countries.

This marks the largest drop in history for US goods imports.

Unfortunately, imports have not bounced back in May.

In fact, import levels at major ports on the west coast are down by close to a third compared to last year during the last week of May…

Even after Trump lowered tariffs on China from 145% to 30% earlier this month, America’s largest ports have yet to see a rebound. The Port of Los Angeles reported a 30% import decline during the final week of May compared to last year. The Northwest Seaport Alliance, which represents the ports of Seattle and Tacoma, says imports also dropped by 30% from the last week in April to the first week in May, and volume is significantly lower compared to last year.

It appears that import numbers could bounce back a bit in June, but not to previous levels.

But then the 90 day pause on reciprocal tariffs ends on July 9th, and the 90 day negotiating period with China ends on August 12th.

In other words, we could potentially be just a couple of months away from a complete and total nightmare at our ports.

Meanwhile, President Trump just posted a blistering message on his Truth Social account that accuses China of violating the agreement that we had made with them for this 90 day negotiating period…

Two weeks ago China was in grave economic danger! The very high Tariffs I set made it virtually impossible for China to TRADE into the United States marketplace which is, by far, number one in the World. We went, in effect, COLD TURKEY with China, and it was devastating for them. Many factories closed and there was, to put it mildly, “civil unrest.” I saw what was happening and didn’t like it, for them, not for us. I made a FAST DEAL with China in order to save them from what I thought was going to be a very bad situation, and I didn’t want to see that happen. Because of this deal, everything quickly stabilized and China got back to business as usual. Everybody was happy! That is the good news!!! The bad news is that China, perhaps not surprisingly to some, HAS TOTALLY VIOLATED ITS AGREEMENT WITH US. So much for being Mr. NICE GUY!

This shouldn’t be a surprise to anyone.

China has been lying, cheating and stealing for decades.

In this case, U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer says that China has been extremely slow to implement their obligations and that this is “completely unacceptable and has to be addressed”…

U.S. Trade Representative Jamieson Greer, in a CNBC interview Friday morning, echoed Trump’s allegation, saying “we’re very concerned with” China’s purported non-compliance with the temporary trade deal.

The “United States did exactly what it was supposed to do, and the Chinese are slow rolling their compliance,” said Greer.

He called that “completely unacceptable and has to be addressed.”

If we can’t trust the Chinese to do what they say they are going to do, how can we make any sort of an agreement with them?

Needless to say, the Chinese are very angry with us right now too.

After learning that President Trump was planning to increase arms sales to Taiwan, China issued a very stern warning…

China has warned the U.S. of its “first red line that cannot be crossed” after a report that President Donald Trump intends to increase arms sales to Taiwan.

The Trump administration will lift weapons sales to Taiwan to higher levels than during his first administration, Reuters reported, citing U.S. officials, to put more military pressure on Beijing and to help deter a Chinese invasion of the island.

It also came out this week that the U.S. military currently has about 500 troops in Taiwan.

The Chinese are very upset about this as well.

The Chinese do not like the Trump administration at all, and the Trump administration is clearly not fond of China.

At this point, it certainly isn’t going to take much to turn our relationship with China into a major dumpster fire.

For those that have been paying attention, you already know why that would be such an ominous sign.

The post Traffic At U.S. Ports Has Absolutely Plummeted Compared To Last Year, And A New Crisis Threatens To Turn U.S. Relations With China Into A Massive Dumpster Fire appeared first on The Economic Collapse.

Camping deep in the wild is an adventure unlike any other. There are no paved roads to travel, no designated campsites to pitch your tent, and no friendly park rangers to keep an eye on things. However, this freedom to take the path less traveled comes with responsibility. When you are miles away from help, every choice matters. You need to find safe shelter, secure clean water, and you’ll also need to steer clear from wild animals. If you plan on heading off-grid, make sure you’re ready with these essential camping survival tips.

Camping Survival Basics Every Beginner Needs to Know

June is National Camping Month, and that means more people heading outdoors. Let’s go over some smart, doable camping survival tips.

Shelter: Stay Dry, Stay Hidden, Stay Alive ️

A well-built shelter protects you from harsh weather, keeps your body temperature stable, and helps you stay unnoticed. If you choose the wrong spot or fail to build a sturdy shelter, you risk exposure to heavy rain, harsh winds, or dangerous wildlife.

Choosing a Safe Campsite

• Avoid low ground. Rainwater naturally flows to low areas such as dry riverbeds, valleys, and canyons. Even if there are clear skies where you are, rain from miles away can unleash a flash flood down these spots. If you camp in one of these places, you may not have enough time to escape before the water arrives.
• Set up camp on slightly elevated terrain. Water naturally drains downhill, so lower areas become muddy and waterlogged after rain. However, camping on steep slopes is also risky because water can flow quickly and erode the ground. A gentle slope is the best option as it allows water to drain naturally which decreases the risk of erosion.
• Look for natural windbreaks. Large rocks, tree clusters, or thick bushes block strong winds and help keep your shelter intact during a storm. If no natural protection is available, stack logs or pile up brush to create a barrier.

Building a Shelter That Works in Any Weather

If you don’t have a tent, you can build an emergency shelter using whatever is available around you.

• Lean-to Shelter: Find a sturdy branch and rest one end against a tree trunk. Lean smaller branches against it at an angle. Then, cover them with leaves, grass, and bark to block wind and rain. A lean-to works well if you only need partial cover and want an open view of your surroundings.
• Debris Hut: Pile up a mound of leaves and sticks and shape them into a small, enclosed space to trap heat. A debris hut is best for cold weather because the thick insulation helps keep warmth inside.
• Tarp or Poncho Shelter: If you have a sturdy tarp or extra blanket, tie it between trees to create a waterproof cover. Angle one side lower than the other so rainwater will run off and won’t pool in the middle of the tarp.

Water: Find It, Purify It, Stay Hydrated

Dehydration affects your ability to think clearly and move efficiently. It also helps you regulate your body temperature. However, drinking untreated water can be just as dangerous as dehydration because bacteria, parasites, and viruses can lead to severe illnesses.

Finding Water Sources That Won’t Make You Sick

• Look for running water. Streams and rivers are in constant motion, which helps flush out bacteria and other contaminants. When water remains stagnant, like in ponds or puddles, it becomes a breeding ground for parasites, algae, and microbes.
• Follow animal tracks and insect activity. Many animals, especially deer, drink from reliable water sources. If you notice hoof prints, game trails, or droppings, that means you may be close to a stream or pond.
• Search for water at low points in the landscape. Hill bases and rock crevices hold moisture longer than flat or high ground. If you notice an area with green, healthy plants in an otherwise dry landscape, there may be water underground. Dig in the damp soil to reach the groundwater.

Purifying Water To Be Extra safe

Even if the water looks clear, it may contain harmful microorganisms that cause life-threatening illnesses. Stay safe by always purifying your water before drinking.

• Boiling: When water reaches a rolling boil, the heat destroys harmful microorganisms. Boil water for at least one minute to ensure safety.
• Filtration: Use a portable water filter to remove bacteria and sediment. If you don’t have one, you can create a simple filter by layering sand, charcoal, and cloth inside a container and pouring water through it. Additionally, filtration only removes debris but does not kill harmful organisms.
• Purification Tablets: Use iodine or chlorine tablets to kill bacteria, viruses, and parasites. Most purification tablets take between 30 minutes to four hours to kill all pathogens. They’re especially useful when boiling or filtering is not an option.

Staying Hidden: Avoiding Both Animals and People

Some situations require stealth for safety if you need to avoid curious wildlife or keep a low profile from other people.

Keeping Wildlife Away From Your Camp

Wild animals rarely approach humans unless they smell food or sense an easy meal.

• Store food far from your sleeping area to keep animals away. Place all food, trash, and scented items in a sealed bag then hang it from a tree at least 10 feet off the ground and 100 yards away from camp. This prevents animals from smelling and accessing your supplies.
• Cook away from your shelter to avoid drawing predators. The scent of food travels far, especially in calm or humid air. Prepare meals at least 100 yards from your sleeping area, and avoid spilling grease or scraps that could leave lingering smells.
• Dispose of food waste properly so animals are not drawn to your camp. If you bury food, some animals may still pick up the scent and dig it up. The safest option is to burn food scraps in a controlled fire or bring them with you via a sealed container.

Avoiding Unwanted Human Attention

Not everyone you meet in the wild has good intentions. Some people may be curious, while others might pose a real threat. Take these steps to stay unnoticed and protect yourself.

• Choose a hidden campsite to reduce the chance of being found. Avoid setting up near well-traveled trails, river areas, or open fields because these spots attract hikers, hunters, and campers. Look for dense vegetation, rocky terrain, or natural barriers that block visibility. The harder your camp is to see, the less likely someone will stumble upon it.
• Use neutral-colored gear to blend into your surroundings. Flashy tents, bright backpacks, and colorful clothing stand out in the wild and make you easy to spot. Instead, use earth tones like brown, green, and gray to blend in with the surroundings.

Camping Survival Tips: Stay Safe and Enjoy the Wild

Wild camping is one of the most rewarding ways to experience nature. However, it’s also a test of skill, preparation, and awareness. The right shelter, clean water, and effective stealth can mean the difference between a peaceful night under the stars and an unplanned camping survival situation.

FAQs: Camping Survival Tips

1. What’s the best emergency shelter if I get lost?
   A debris hut is the easiest to build. Pile leaves and branches for insulation.
2. How much water should I carry?
   At least one gallon per person per day. But always look for more sources.
3. Are there any survival tools I should always have?
   Yes! A knife, fire starter, water filter, and emergency blanket should be in your pack.
4. What’s the best way to keep food safe from bears?
   Hang it 12 feet up and 6 feet from the tree trunk. Use a bear-proof bag if possible.
5. How do I make a fire without matches?
   Use a ferro rod, magnifying glass, or even friction methods like a bow drill.

A Complete Guide On Finding The Best Manual Wood Splitter For YOU

Splitting firewood by hand is a time-honored tradition—great for staying warm, building muscle, and working up a proper appreciation for modern tools.

But swinging an axe all day? That’s a fast track to a sore back and a bad attitude.

That’s where manual firewood splitters come in—giving you a smarter, safer, and more efficient way to split logs without the fuel costs or noise of gas-powered machines.

If you’re ready to upgrade from brute force to brainpower, this guide will walk you through everything you need to know about manual firewood splitters, including:

✅ The best manual firewood splitters on the market
✅ Key features to look for when buying one
✅ How to use a manual firewood splitter (so you don’t wreck your hands or dignity)
✅ Who should get one (and who should stick to an axe or hydraulic splitter)

Let’s dive in (but first)…

Manual Firewood Splitters

Not all manual splitters are created equal. Some are great for big, tough logs, while others are better suited for kindling and small jobs. Here are the top-rated manual firewood splitters:

1. Kindling Cracker

???? Best for: Splitting small logs and making kindling
???? Why it’s great: Stationary wedge design—just hit the log with a mallet
???? Max log size: 6.5-inch diameter logs
???? Why you’ll love it: Zero maintenance and safe for all ages. Perfect for campers, cabin owners, and anyone who loves a good bonfire.

2. Kindling Cracker XL

???? Best for: Splitting medium logs and making kindling
???? Why it’s great: Stationary wedge design—just hit the log with a mallet
???? Max log size: 9-inch diameter logs
???? Why you’ll love it: Same as the previous one, just a big larger/heavy to accommodate larger log sizes.

Note: These are the only 2 I recommend. Everything else has too many compromises to be considered a top option.

Key Features to Look for in a Manual Firewood Splitter

A good manual firewood splitter should be strong, stable, and safe. Here’s what you should consider before buying:

???? Splitting Mechanism – Hydraulic pump? Slide hammer? Wedge-and-mallet design? Pick one based on your strength and log size needs.

???? Max Log Size – Some splitters handle only small logs for kindling, while others can split thicker, tougher pieces of firewood.

???? Portability – If you need something lightweight for camping or off-grid use, avoid bulky hydraulic models.

???? Durability – Cast iron and hardened steel blades last longer than cheap aluminum or plastic parts.

???? Ease of Use – If your goal is less effort, go for hydraulic splitters or wedge-based designs that don’t require brute force.

How to Use a Manual Firewood Splitter (Without Wrecking Yourself)

Using a manual firewood splitter the right way will keep you safe and make the job much easier. Here’s the step-by-step process:

1. Prep Your Work Area

✔️ Set up on solid, level ground (concrete or packed dirt works best)
✔️ Wear safety gear – gloves, boots, and eye protection (flying wood chips are no joke)
✔️ Stack logs nearby so you don’t have to stop and reload every few minutes

2. Position the Log

✔️ Place the log upright and centered on the splitter
✔️ If using a wedge-style splitter, align it straight over the grain for a clean break

3. Apply Force

✔️ For hydraulic splitters – Pump the handle until the log splits
✔️ For slide hammer splitters – Lift the hammer and slam it down onto the wedge
✔️ For wedge-style splitters – Strike the log with a heavy mallet until it cracks

4. Remove & Repeat

✔️ Clear the split logs away before placing another one
✔️ If a log doesn’t split completely, rotate it and try again

Pro Tip: Don’t rush. Splitting firewood is about technique, not just strength.

Who Should Get a Manual Firewood Splitter?

A manual firewood splitter isn’t for everyone—but it might be perfect for you if:

✅ You want a safer alternative to an axe – If you’re tired of swinging a maul (or just worried about missing your target), a splitter gives you more control and less risk.

✅ You don’t want to deal with gas-powered machines – Hydraulic and electric splitters are great, but they require maintenance, fuel, or electricity. Manual splitters work anywhere.

✅ You need something portable – If you’re heading to a cabin or off-grid property, a small manual wood splitter is easier to transport than a heavy-duty hydraulic model.

✅ You want to save money – Manual splitters cost a fraction of electric or gas-powered splitters. If you’re only splitting firewood for personal use, a $100–$300 splitter will get the job done without breaking the bank.

❌ However…If you need to split massive logs all winter long, you might want to invest in a powered splitter instead. Manual splitters are fantastic for smaller jobs, but they’ll wear you out if you need to process cords of wood regularly.

Final Thoughts: Should You Get a Manual Firewood Splitter?

So if you love the idea of splitting firewood without gas, electricity, or unnecessary effort, a manual firewood splitter is a smart buy. It’s safer than an axe, cheaper than a power splitter. And far more efficient than splitting logs the old-fashioned way.

???? For small logs and kindling? Go for a wedge-based splitter like the Kindling Cracker.
???? For medium-sized logs? A slide hammer splitter gives you controlled power.
???? For big logs? A hydraulic manual splitter is your best bet.

At the end of the day, the right tool makes all the difference. If you want faster, easier, and safer firewood splitting, a manual wood splitter belongs in your shed.

Now, go forth and split wood like a pro. ????????
