I knew it.<\/p>\n
It was as if it came to me in a a dream, but not really a dream. A sort of fluffy dream cloud, like a dream, where it rested in my ears and settled like snow on a quilted meadowtop. In any case I have found conclusive proof that somebody, someone, a certain person predicted the glocal recession YEARS before. Oh yes, after much digging and deliberation I can reveal that that person is… Shania Twain.<\/p>\n
Oh you may scoff like the rest of them did but here’s the proof chummies. Read these lyrics from her multi-award-winning best-single-ever song ‘Ka-Ching’:<\/p>\n
“We’ve created us a credit card mess
\nWe spend the money we don’t possess
\nOur religion is to go and blow it all
\nSo it’s shopping every Sunday at the mall.”<\/p>\n
And:<\/p>\n
“When you’re broke go and get a loan
\nTake out another mortgage on your home
\nConsolidate so you can afford
\nTo go an spend some more when you get bored.”<\/p>\n
See? This was back in 2003. I didn’t see U2 or Bob Geldof grabbing a microphone and trying to warn us but she had the foresight. Even though the song was shit she dared to stand up and predict the future. Madam, I gesticulate in your general direction.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
