"And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name." - Revelation 13:16-17
I don't leave my bunker much these days. Not since that stabbing incident out West a few years back. But every now and then, I have no choice. Today, the scooter ride to the local Dollar General was a haunting glimpse into the unfolding collapse of our nation.
The Corporate Machine Devours Main Street
Small town America is being systematically consumed by the corporate behemoth. One by one, the vibrant Main Streets that once defined our communities are dying. In their place rises the familiar fluorescent glow of Dollar General - the retail embodiment of soulless conformity.
The Eerie Parallels to Prophecy
The unsettling proliferation of Dollar General across the nation bears an uncanny resemblance to the dire warnings of biblical prophecy. Just as Revelation foretold, a centralized economic system is emerging that will control the ability to "buy or sell" - all marked by the signs of the beast.
The Death of Local Identity
As each unique town becomes just another interchangeable Dollar General franchise, we witness the death of local identity. Individuality is consumed by corporate homogeneity. The distinctive character that once defined our communities is stripped away, replaced by the plastic sameness of the retail apocalypse.
A Harbinger of the End Times?
Could the relentless march of Dollar General across small-town America be an ominous sign of the prophetic unraveling to come? The speed at which Main Street is being eradicated, replaced by faceless corporate conformity, is chilling. Are we witnessing the final stages of America's demise - the last gasps of a nation that has sold its soul?
