We must all learn to adjust the new reality of a lower lifestyle...blah, blah, blah, blah blah. Bullshit! You're all such damned blind sheeple. The answer is there, right above your heads, starting approximately 60 miles up. It's called space development.<br /><br />All the resources this world and hundreds more will ever need are right there for the taking, by any nation or group that has the balls to become the next universal Magellans. God! I can't believe what a wimpy whiny bunch of spineless self-absorbed wastes of protein this nation's "future generations" have become. With outlooks like those expressed in many of these posts. We're not going to have a future!<br /><br />If this nation had spent a tenth of what it's wasted on wars and welfare on developing the riches of the Cosmos, our civilization would now be spread across the solar system and living lifestyles one can only dream about. Instead, we've, to paraphrase the Simon & Garfunkle song 'The Boxer', "...squandered our existence for a pocketful of mubles; such are promises."<br /><br />If it's not already too late, then show some guts, put a halt to this ludicrous idea of a shrinking pie and go after an ever-increasing pie, "out there." However, if indeed it does turn out to be to late and we are truly doomed, then I can only say that you all deserved it, but damn you for dragging us all down with you!Gandalfhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09044757658168395316noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-57242618834788589342010-09-15T20:45:40.610-07:002010-09-15T20:45:40.610-07:00The interdependence of a globalised market and the...The interdependence of a globalised market and the peaking of energy supplies, most notably oil, mean than international empirical control is doomed as a national goal, for every nation. No man is an island nor any nation, even those nations that actually are islands. Sustainability is a misnomer as to remain sustained and stable a nation must constantly grow.<br /><br /> The rise of China as a replacement empire is just as doomed as the current American hegemon because no nation or state can survive on its own without international trade. As the financial concept of infinite growth becomes more obviously false the indebtedness of every individual to the markets will cause a sudden and permanent decline in every industry worldwide and radical social upheaval, there is no way to avoid this.<br /><br /> All war has been about access to and ownership of base commodities, whether gold or silver or more recently oil and ever-rarer metals, fresh water and arable land. The U.S. military is merely the enforcer's arm of the merchant class and will decline according to market rules which are now being systematically and effectively rewritten to suit a world that has met the finite barrier to eternal expansion.William Jorgensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13088242010695626222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-72263853185994381002010-09-15T04:45:27.203-07:002010-09-15T04:45:27.203-07:00As soon as " World Nut Daily" came up, I...As soon as " World Nut Daily" came up, I blocked this URL.Oasis of the Toucanshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16188115517883867639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-4834127049926495752010-09-14T03:19:48.738-07:002010-09-14T03:19:48.738-07:00open your minds a little more & try to actuall...open your minds a little more & try to actually listen to someone like Alex Jones, instead of calling all of his "type" nutt-jobs!Weltgeisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06168145118276904912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-53368162367643911522010-09-13T21:10:03.268-07:002010-09-13T21:10:03.268-07:00I'm going to be covering this on my radio show...I'm going to be covering this on my radio show more in detail tomorrow.<br /><br />Today i went into how the military is smuggling heroine & opium...and how the private federal reserve just gave $300 million to Afghanistan's LARGEST bank - Kabul Bank. <br /><br />How is it that the US has so much money, will will give money to the same country we are AT WAR WITH?<br /><br />Anyway, I would recommend checking out http://www.freedomizerradio.comUnknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12295471076395966760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-53246864840716464.post-79546855056002435362010-09-13T15:25:19.247-07:002010-09-13T15:25:19.247-07:00So now the world has (supposed)debt that cannot be...So now the world has (supposed)debt that cannot be repaid because it amounts to (supposedly)hundreds of thousands of dollars for each living soul. The entity owed this debt is the same entity that creates money from thin air and then charges interest on this air money lent. This entity has acquired all resources, land, armies, food, utilities etc. purchased with this air money. This manager of finances has been party to, if not created a massive recession every 8 to 10 years for almost 200 years that allows them to buy assets for token amount of its previous value. Most of the world is now aware that the NWO/FED is a thief.
