Chapter 1: The Need of Society: To be just to itself.Most people abhor politics, or take it skin deep. They absorb the trivia and whatever else they are supposed to absorb, and, then, close their mind. Indeed, this approach to politics is boring, frustrating at times, and rather inconsequential. The real policy issues are developed on a much deeper level, where things are exiting and where actual opportunities exist for individuals to help shape the course of humanity. This, also, is where the life of society is affected the most. The realm of ideological backgrounds that shape the policies by which the nations are governed, affects the private life of people, and their future, more powerfully than any other factor in the universe. Sadly, this arena is largely ignored by the society at large. In many ways, the society at large behaves like sheep being led to the slaughter, innocently following their leader. One of the many financial newsletter writers had compared today's society to an incidence that took place in Germany during the early years of World War II. The leading families of a certain Jewish community were cordially invited by the government of the Reich to attend a certain conference at a certain resort. All expenses would be paid by the Reich. A special train was arranged for them with Pullman type cars, baggage cars, dining cars - even a band was brought in to welcome the Jewish elite at the station, with porters standing by to carry their luggage. The 'guests' were wined and dined on the train. At their destination the show continued. They were welcomed with a band playing again, porters were unloading their luggage. At this point, however, the game ended. The grim reality took over. Their destination was one of Hitler's newly established extermination facilities. Few people, today, recognize what the grim reality looks like that the feudal system has in store for humanity. Through wonderful ideological plays mankind is quietly 'guided' to accept a return to the "simple life of living close to nature and clean air, powered by windmills, water power, and solar cells." The grim reality is that this life-style is one of utter toil and primitive living, and is possible only at a very low population density. In other words, billions of people will have to be eliminated to convert the present world to this 'utopian' life-style on a global scale. A modern economy that supports 5.5 billion people cannot operate on an energy platform powered by windmills, bio-fuels, and solar cells. The required energy density and energy volume simply cannot be achieved on this platform. The production of today's bio-fuels, for instance, requires a greater amount of energy input into farming and processing, than the fuels give back. The same is true for the use of solar cells for electricity production. It takes more energy to built solar cells, than solar cells are able to produce in their lifetime. Few people also realize that the war over the future is to a large extend decided at the present. In many ways the 'war' appears to be already lost. There is a remarkable readiness apparent in society to give up it use of fossil fuels, which the "global warming" mythology demands. Nobody asks what this means in real terms, in respect to human living. Nobody asks what drives the farming industry, the transportation systems, the manufacturing processes, the construction industry, what powers the cities, what heats homes, cooks food, etc.. Nothing is more central to human living than energy production. Take away the fossil fuels and humanity dies, literally. Even without a large scale crash program that will be needed to develop nuclear energy systems with which to power the future when the fossil fuels become exhausted, mankind will suffer the same fate. It will have no option but to regress to a lifestyle that corresponds to a global population density that is 90% lower than today's. || - page index - || - chapter index - || - Exit - ||
