About the India currency notes cancellation.
Here is the official angle. It’s got to do with Pakistan and counterfeit notes.Illargi – have a look at this if you have the time

It is saying a lot of what TAE say (eg cost of capital will limit energy availability,etc, etc)
When I read this, I kept thinking of you and Stoneleigh, time and time again.thank you Stoneleigh for this and all the other posts at The Automatic Earth.
We need your help to understand what is happening and ways to make our paths to follow in the future of energy shortages, capital shortage and food shortages.
Things are going to become local and much more meaningful lives
will be lead.Well done on all the effort you both have done.
I think it’s important to maintain a clear idea of what is happening (don’t believe the hype!) and look to the future.The historic cheap and easily available energy and capital period of many decades if over. So the question is : that’s next?
Illargi and Stoneleigh keep well, it seems to me things have only just begun.
further to the building of a new empire of Europe have a look at
https://hat4uk.wordpress.com/2012/09/09/the-esms-articles-todays-must-read/
where you can see quotes of the newly drafted ESM Charter
eg
“The archives of the ESM and all documents belonging to the ESM or held by it, shall be inviolable. The premises of the ESM shall be inviolable.”Looks like we are making an untouchable and unaccountable overseer of Euroland. And I suspect they will take their orders from the powers that be
Yes, Greece is the model, to be applied as far as possible to all countries with any middle class wealth to harvest.
We will need help from our community if we are to survive the coming decades. This is the message from TAE from the start.
Forget about the guns and ammo, and food stores for 6 months.
We are going to need friends in the future worlds where we will all be living soon.Christoulas must have felt so completely alone in his battle to survive (and see a credible future where he could continue to survive and live). It is not overt or planned by the powers that be, but never the less it is clear the modern western life that focuses on individual efforts and rewards and personal responsibility for life outcomes means total estrangement from community building. What we will need in the future has been destroyed – happily and with full support – by those who are going to be in most need of it.
Stoneleigh sez “build community relationships and shared interests” as part of her lifeboat. It appears nearly at the bottom of the list. I think it should be at the top. Start building networks of sharing of surplus food and skills and energy first, and reduce your debt. Keep building networks and put aside some cash in a hole somewhere. Add other connections to people and networks as you plant a kitchen garden as you share your excess potatoes with those who might have too many tomatoes. Consider some solar panels for the roof and share your knowledge of TAE with others. You get my drift?
After a few years of the above you will then be able to ask others “what can I do about my problem here”. Share your problem in other words. Then it will not seem to hopeless and we might be much better positioned to live and survive.
Not die off quickly. That is what THEY want.
