The Coming American Worker Revolt
Wealth Inequality hitting tipping point
As many of you have probably already seen, a warehouse worker at a Kimberly-Clark distribution facility in Ontario, California set fire to a 1.1 million square foot warehouse, completely burning it to the ground. He videoed himself setting fire to pallets of toilet paper, saying, “This is what you get for not paying me a livable wage. I’m going to destroy all of your inventory.”
I posted a video about this on TikTok and Instagram that has gone viral, and there has been an intense debate about the skyrocketing cost of living, stagnant wages, and how American workers are being left behind and can’t afford to live.

Inflation will continue until the dollar eventually fails. There is no bringing down inflation because the debts have gotten so big that rates can’t be raised to where they need to be without collapsing the everything bubble. So inflation is the lesser of two evils. Because of this, people who are wage earners will be the biggest losers, as employers will never raise wages fast enough to match inflation.
The middle class is fighting a war on every front because not only do they have inflation, but now AI is replacing jobs, so the job market is soft. This allows employers not to raise wages because they have options in the labor market. Also, with the war in Iran, energy prices are skyrocketing, and gas, groceries, insurance—everything—is going up, and going up fast.
I believe we are at a tipping point, and this warehouse being burned down is a canary in the coal mine. Pretty soon, the majority of working-class people will not be able to afford to live without going into debt, and people will start attacking the system—either by going after employers, protesting, or backing radical candidates that will bring major socialist changes.
Now more than ever is the time to get assets outside of the system before it breaks. Buy Bitcoin, physical gold and silver, and look at getting residency abroad and having a backup option. The world feels like a sinking ship—make sure you find your lifeboat sooner rather than later.
