Another side effect of hyperinflation is shortage of necessities. Entrepreneurs stop buying because they are uncertain if they can make a profit. Frijoles of all things were sold out all across Michoacan.

    An excellent summary of a problem largely below my and my friends' radar here in the USA. I would like to see this group's prioritization of the solutions proposed here and to see what timelines their analysts believe to be achievable in those places .
    I also note that the solutions proposed here are monetary. I suggest that any viable solution to the current crisis must also address the shortfall in real food production, and such solutions need to begin implementation immediately. I'm just a computer guy who's a hobby researcher, but I cannot find anything close to a comprehensive analysis of programs intended to raise food self-sufficiency among those places that import their food (and so are vulnerable to both supply fluctuations and subsequent price fluctuations). Can your group point to some?

    I'm from Andhra Pradesh, a state mentioned by Palki Sharma in India. We are here facing the inflation due to our incompetent leaders. Only motto of our CM is to borrow the money with high interest and distribute it to the people through social welfare schemes. I agree that Welfare of the people is important but development is foremost to that. The income generated from the development should lead a state but not mere borrowing and feeding the people to make them more lazy and useless. I'm pretty sure that if it continues like this, our state would definitely become another Sri Lanka.

      The Ten Principles of the Georgia Guidestones, America's Strangest Monument
      Are you familiar with the Georgia Guidestones? When someone first mentioned it to me I thought it both interesting and strange.
      Located 90 miles East of Atlanta, the monument consists of a set of 10 guidelines inscribed on a stone manmade structure in eight modern languages. At the top there's also a short message inscribed in four ancient language scripts. Some people are calling it an "American Stonehenge." The slabs and capstone stand just over 19 feet tall.
      The creators of this monument have chosen to remain anonymous and the man who conveyed the instructions to the Eberton Granite Finishing Company 19 miles away used a pseudonym. Obviously it cost a pretty penny to produce and install. Purportedly the group behind this had spent twenty years in planning.
      The inscriptions are in the following languages:
      English, Spanish, Swahili, Hindi, Hebrew, Arabic, Traditional Chinese, and Russian.
      The ten commandments inscribed there are as follows:
      1. Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
      2. Guide reproduction wisely - improving fitness and diversity.
      3. Unite humanity with a living new language.
      4. Rule passion - faith - tradition - and all things with tempered reason.
      5. Protect people and nations with fair laws and just courts.
      6. Let all nations rule internally resolving external disputes in a world court.
      7. Avoid petty laws and useless officials.
      8. Balance personal rights with social duties.
      9. Prize truth - beauty - love - seeking harmony with the infinite.
      10. Be not a cancer on the Earth - Leave room for nature - Leave room for nature.
      A lot of it sounds "nice" but one gets a little concerned about the first two, the first especially. I'm curious how they propose to reduce the earth's population by seven billion in order to fulfill their concept of balance with nature.
      Does the second statement refer to a return to eugenicists helping create a more perfect race? Is it Brave New World inspired, as if Huxley's book were a manual, instead of a red flag?
      Heres what WIRED wrote about the Guidestones:
      The Georgia Guidestones may be the most enigmatic monument in the US: huge slabs of granite, inscribed with directions for rebuilding civilization after the apocalypse. Only one man knows who created them-and he's not talking.
      The strangest monument in America looms over a barren knoll in northeastern Georgia. Five massive slabs of polished granite rise out of the earth in a star pattern. The rocks are each 16 feet tall, with four of them weighing more than 20 tons apiece. Together they support a 25,000-pound capstone. Approaching the edifice, it's hard not to think immediately of England's Stonehenge or possibly the ominous monolith from 2001: A Space Odyssey. Built in 1980, these pale gray rocks are quietly awaiting the end of the world as we know it.
      You can find the rest of that story HERE.

    Self sustainability is the answer. Sri Lanka has every natural resource for it to be self sustainable but the politicians and their business friends do not want the country to produce enough because when importing things from another country they can earn money through commissions and corruption. Sri Lanka has the natural resources and workforce for it to produce enough foods, vehicles, medicines, petrol and diesel, and electricity. Government do not want the country to be self sufficient because the correct politicians will miss out on import Commissions. Most of politicians families live abroad in developed countries and only the poor innocent civilian suffer.

    The problem is our whole financial and banking system:
    i. Our debt based system of money creation via the Central Bank - Government nexus.
    ii. Fractional reserve lending - which further devalues every paper money.
    iii. Unproductive welfare schemes that politicians create out of thin air by the above two - either borrow more money or create more schemes via reserve lending.

      This is not a problem to them, its an opportunity to do a major meltdown of the world's economy so they can cause mass starvation and civil unrest while driving the prices on their sacred commodities through the roof. We are just a number and we are all being played. None of this is an accident or from inept leadership. This play has been planned out long ago. Suckers. People are easier to control when their on their knees. Global ethnic population control is here. Wake up. The elite have no reason to care about the peasant class corporate slaves they rule over and can dispose of us for any reason at any time, unless your strong enough to stop them. Stay ono your knees you will live a little longer. Says homeland security. You all have a very hard lesson to learn about the true sadistic behavior of the human plague. We are only worth what it costs to replace us. Whoever pays you is your master. Trillions will be looted from the civilian coffers and all it takes is a major war.
