The Daily Doom
Economic, Social and Political News about the Great Collapse
Note: As you know, I decided three months ago to experiment with a 3-4 month free trial of this daily financial/economic newsletter to see if the concept has the potential popularity to succeed. For The Daily Doom to continue into the fourth month, I'll now need to hear a solid number of comments from people saying they value the service enough to switch eventually to a paid subscription. You can comment at the bottom of today’s post here Substack or via a reply email to today’s free email edition if that is how you are reading this to let me know if you are one who would likely pay $5 for a monthly subscription next year.
