" The American public are spoiled brats, demanding the best of everything but refusing to pay for it. They believe they live in the best country on earth despite all of the evidence to the contrary. Vindictive, war-mongering, ignorant and xenophobic, they are mollycoddled and doted on by toadying politicians and corporations who constantly tell them how great they are, even though most of them are morbidly obese, gullible, barely literate, beer-swilling cretins, singularly unable to do even the simplest things for themselves. Americans look like side-show freaks festooned with piercings and tattoos and clad in garish and ill-fitting clown costumes, behaving like overgrown children in adult bodies.This clueless population is in denial and elect only leaders will tell them what they want to hear. Comfort and distraction are the highest goals.
When will we finally admit that modern American society is pretty much just one giant clusterfuck?
Oh, and I know it's a sin to criticize the perfect military we're all supposed to worship, but when was the last time the military actually defended the homeland of the United States, World War Two? Since then its seems we've been waging wars on the other side of the planet, conveniently often in oil-rich countries. Who is paying for our hundreds of military bases around the world, and what exactly do the American public get for their money besides lunatics trying to blow them up? Do we really need to spend more than the rest of the world combined? The military waged preemptive war on two countries that did not attack us while failing to prevent a mass slaughter in our own country. And I seem to recall scandal after scandal in recent years, from waterboarding at Guantanamo Bay, to posing with hooded prisoners at Abu Ghraib, to the Pat Tillman coverup, to urinating on corpses, to cutting off fingers and ears as trophies, to employing private Blackwater mercenaries, to no-bid contracts costing taxpayers billions, to advocating "total war" with Islam. And now drones are flying over the world's hotspots blowing up wedding parties and terminating American citizens without trial. No, I'm sorry, they are not blameless.
And before you accuse me of "hating the troops" what about the coverups of Gulf War syndrome? What about not being allowed to take photos of body bags? What about being too cheap to buy adequate body armor for combat troops? What about the treatment of patients at Walter Reed Veteran's hospital? What about the military suicides? What about politicians constantly trying to cut funding for caring for wounded veterans while voting for weapons systems even the military doesn't want? Loving war is not honoring the troops. Our institutions have failed them too.
Even then we knew it was so toxic that we used a 'wax bar' positioned in front of the tractor to just brush over the weeds missing the money crop just inches below.

6. I expect total sea ice loss will occur during summer in either 2014 or 2015. By this time I expect agricultural output to have declined to a point where food supplies are inadequate and famine and conflict are rife. Farmers will not know what to plant or when and even acquiring seed from other climatic regions may be problematic.
7. Social conditions will be comparable to the Holomodor. People will try to eat anything and everything - earthworms, insects, each other - even in some cases their own children. Nation states will fragment and reform into smaller and increasingly violent competitive groups fighting over rapidly diminishing resources. Maintaining the supply chains required for the operation of modern technology including agriculture will be largely impossible.
8. If we see widespread war before nation states fragment there is a possibility of the use of nuclear and genetically enhanced biological weaponry. Whether through war or famine the human population will be in freefall.
9. The climate will continue to worsen as more heat flows into the system and this will become the new threat to survivors as population density becomes too low to sustain conflict. Most survivors will be eliminated, leaving the human race on the brink of extinction. A majority of the planet will cease to be habitable. The deserts will greatly expand, though this will help balance the planets thermal budget. Very few people will live to see the Arctic sea ice entirely gone throughout the year or the ruined cities drowned in the rising sea.
10. Assuming the collapse is as rapid and severe as I expect I would expect the human population to collapse below the new carrying capacity of the planet and therefore for resource pressure to lighten once a sufficient number of people die (granted with few useful resources left and uncertainty about precisely which regions would be good prospects).

"Most people prefer to believe that their leaders are just and fair, even in the face of evidence to the contrary, because once a citizen acknowledges that the government under which he lives is lying and corrupt, the citizen has to choose what he or she will do about it. To take action in the face of corrupt government entails risks of harm to life and loved ones. To choose to do nothing is to surrender one's self-image of standing for principles. Most people do not have the courage to face that choice. Hence, most propaganda is not designed to fool the critical thinker but only to give moral cowards an excuse not to think at all."

My neighbor says they spray with an Agent Orange-type of spray.
Said neighbor is an Agent Orange victim from a combat unit in Vietnam and on 100 percent disability. He's active and appears healthy but he's not.
Agent orange was a DIOXIN based defoliant.
There are absolutely no DIOXIN based defoliants currently approved for use in the USA.
NONE.
Nor have there been for almost a generation.
Your neighbor is 100% WRONG about this matter.
Spoiled, stupid and ignorant, brain dead phuckwads, libTURD fools, tools, and idiots, are the real sickness; the messiah "king" obammy and his regime are only the symptoms.
I'm telling you this so that you can reassure the man.
He and the others who were exposed to agent orange DID make a difference.
DIOXIN is GONE because of their sacrifices.
Btw Fred dioxins were used in many other ways.
For example the final PAs in my radars were filled with an insulating oil that was almost pure dioxins.
The doors to them were designed that you could NOT open them without getting a BATH in gallons of that oil, because they wanted to make sure the oil was changed every time the PAs were accessed. Every six months or so we took dioxin baths. But no settlement for us, (there were likely fewer than 5,000 of us ever to hold our rate and do that job) .
I meant your neighbor no disrespect, quite the contrary.
Please just tell him because of abuses of agent orange use, dioxin is GONE in the USA and it's NOT coming back.
If you wouldn't mind, please give him my personal thanks for his service Fred.

Drought conditions are present in 56 percent of the continental U.S., according to the weekly Drought Monitor. That's the most in the 12 years that the data have been compiled, topping the previous record of 55 percent set on Aug. 26, 2003. It's also up five percentage points from the previous week.

"C.H. Boehringer Sohn discovered a way to minimize the
DIOXIN
content in a substance by keeping down the temperature in the autoclave [during manufacture]. . . . Dow, Monsanto, and Diamond Shamrock were able to make a batch of Agent Orange in about forty-five minutes, but if they'd lowered the temperatures, it would have taken a lot longer-- possibly twelve hours-- to make the same batch of herbicide. By keeping the autoclave temperatures higher, they made it more quickly and for a lot cheaper. Dow and other manufacturers of Agent Orange ignored the safety precautions because they wanted to make Agent Orange more quickly, and they wanted to make more of it."[1]
Glyphosate only makes about 41% of the total pesticide. The rest is a combination of water and any combination of nearly 2,300 substances which could be added by the manufacturer but not listed on the label. The company claims that these chemicals are trade secrets.

Of course, it remains quite unclear just how much wealth is left anywhere under the conditions of extreme overshoot, and equally unclear where a Pigman should go to escape the oncoming Capital Controls likely to spring up everywhere.
The carefree life of Simon Black jetting around the world First Class, holding multiple passports and not paying Taxes in ANY jusrisdiction is coming to a close here, but Simon doesnt want to see this end. He really doesnt want to farm the 1100 Acres he bought in Chile, and if he HAS to move there permanently he likely hopes Da Chilean Goobermint will recognize his Title and will allow him to run his Estate as a Feudal Kingdom, hiring poor Chilean Peasants to plow HIS land.
The Capital Controls are coming, and every Pigman website from Zero Hedge to the Daily Capitalist will complain about them and tell you how horrible they are. They sure are horrible for PIGMEN! They cant go and jump ship with all the MONEY when the Titanic goes down.

What's not understood, except by the very few (ALWAYS and EVERYTIME in the End Game PREVIEW of Panics & Mania's :twisted: ) is that there WILL be a Debt Jubilee.
IT can be controlled and doled out, at FIRST, but then the Collapse Continuum is reached and you find yourself behind the curve. THEN, CREDIT is what you hold in your hand when deciding each and every debt.

'Nature has the right to exist'
Posted by Gerry Canavan
Art. 1. Nature or Pachamama, where life is reproduced and exists, has the right to exist, persist, maintain and regenerate its vital cycles, structure, functions and its processes in evolution.
Every person, people, community or nationality, will be able to demand the recognitions of rights for nature before the public organisms. The application and interpretation of these rights will follow the related principles established in the Constitution.
With the public ratification of its new constitution last week, Ecuador has for the first time anywhere in history granted inalienable rights to nature. The new constitution also includes strict egalitarian provisions about food production, water access, and protection for indigenous peoples and uncontacted tribes.
As the Guardian link makes clear, this unprecedented act stems in part from Ecuador's custodianship of the Galápagos Islands and in part from its long history of abuse at the hands of multinational corporations:
"The problem here we are faced with is that ONGOING are HIGH CRIMES AGAINST HUMANITY. This is not just limited to such outstanding and obvious Crimes like the Macondo Well Blowout in the GOM or FUK-U-Shima Fiasco, which is clearly a result of EXTREME levels of corruption between both Goobermint and Private Industry in Japan. It extends to the AUSTERITY being forced down the throats of J6Ps all over the world as their Pensions are cut and current workers are laid off, all to SAVE THE BANKSTERS! Bond Holders MUST be preserved at ALL COSTS! Such costs of course include Greek Senior Citizens committing Suicide because they see their future Eating out of Dumpsters."
#1615. To: Zesta, A K A Stone, All (#1614)(Edited)
It extends to the continuing POISOINING of the Food Supply by Monsanto and other corporations with GMO Foods. It extends into the pharmaceutical industry with Mercury based Vaccines. It extends into the Banking Industry with faulty MERS Titles and Foreclosures. It extends into the highest tiers of Goobermint, where Politicians are literally paid MILLIONS to vote in the interest of Lobbies rather than their constituencies. These Crimes Against Humanity are ONGOING, and they are ALREADY taking thousands if not Million of lives."

Death toll of Russian flood rises to 171
Local people walk along a flooded street in the southern Russian town of Krymsk on July 8, 2012. Mon Jul 9, 2012 2:8AM GMT 0 At least 171 people have been killed in devastating floods in the Black Sea region of southern Russia in the worst natural disaster to hit the region in decades.
In fact, the connections apparent across the piece of this rapidly developing scandal suggest that nobody saved the banking system in 2008: key players intimately involved in the sector simply lied about the cost of borrowing .using a fraud both well-established and near universal by then.
Even when non-oil products are considered, total liquids have barely budged, up just 3.5 percent for the entire period from 2005 to 2011. Even if these liquids were interchangeable with oil, they would be making very little headway in substituting for it.
But because few of the non-oil products now being lumped in with oil supplies are genuine substitutes and the ones that are have serious limitations on the volume they could provide, we should consider the truth about oil.
Its supply is stagnant which accounts for the record prices of recent years. And, the promise that high prices would bring on copious new supplies has proven to be nothing more than wishful thinking. The limitations on oil supplies are now upon us. The salient issue is the rate of production, not the supposedly huge resources that optimists may conjure up in their imaginations.
How much oil you can get out out of the ground on a daily basis is what counts, and it's getting harder and harder to extract the amount of oil we desire from the Earth's crust each day. We extracted the easy stuff first.
We cannot now expect to extract the difficult stuff at the same high rates as the easy stuff. And, we cannot expect that total percentage recoveries from the smaller, more complex and challenging reservoirs which we are now forced to exploit will be as high as those we've gotten from large, simple, straightforward reservoirs in the past.
The world has over a thousand multibillionaires. These people conspire with each other to expand free trade, increase government debts and eliminate capital from banking systems. All reforms must pass their inspection and anything curbing their astronomical accumulation of wealth is nixed whereas anything that increases it is shoved forwards. The result is an international banking collapse, a government debt crisis in nearly all first world countries and increasing violence at the bottom of society.
Very few of those living in the old paradigm of consumption, debt, and 40-hour work weeks will be able to maintain this lifestyle over the coming decade.
Nearly four years after the financial collapse of 2008 the majority of global economic indicators in America, Europe and China are suggesting that the situation has worsened, not moved into a recovery phase. What weve seen so far in terms of the vaporization of wealth, the destruction of jobs and the impoverishment of millions of once middle-class families is but the opening salvo in a world-wide depression that is sure to change the presumptions we have about global economic and geo-political stability.
All reforms must pass their inspection and anything curbing their astronomical accumulation of wealth is nixed whereas anything that increases it is shoved forwards. The result is an international banking collapse, a government debt crisis in nearly all first world countries and increasing violence at the bottom of society.
The US in particular has its head buried in the sand and this is partially the fault of the media owners who like things kept this way. For example, the ongoing news about how crummy our occupation of Afghanistan is going is usually tiny headlines on the back pages like todays story: NATO confirms 6 troops killed in roadside bombing Sunday in Afghanistan were Americans.
All the pro-US military speeches, all the flag waving, all the pretend interest in our troops is a false front. The US governments operational owners, the rich, dont give a (shit). Indeed, they studiously ignore the dead and the mental deterioration of the troops as they slowly are ground down by repeated cycles patrolling hostile Muslim territories.
