The "carrying capacity" hoax - plagiarism of Giammaria Ortes (1790).When the Club of Rome's own logic failed to inspire governments into economic self-destruction by means of its "Limits to Growth" theory (published in a report in 1972 under the same title), the work of an 18th century Venetian monk was resurrected which was the original foundation of the limits to growth theory that is still reflected in all modern versions. Ortes' (1790) work, Popolazione delle nazioni per supporto all'economica natzionale was literally plundered a short time later by Thomas Malthus, which became his famous (1798), An Essay on the Principle of Population.*(See 21th Century, Fall 1995 p34-36) In other words it was Ortes' work that laid the foundation of the Malthusian doctrine which founded the English Poor laws of the 19th century, made slavery 'ethical,' excused genocide in Ireland during the potato blight, and found its most bizarre expression in Hitler's population management theory and practice. There exists no evidence that Ortis' work was directly connected to the pet project of the British Empire: to destroy the new republic of the United States of America, for which the free-trade doctrine was created by Adam Smith at approximately the same time. The timely coincidence and the close connection between the British Empire and the Venetian oligarchy would suggest such a connection. Ortis' work was based on the mathematical projection of the principle of the dynamics of life that he used as a basis for showing that population growth can outpace the earth's capacity to support the populations. Ortis, however, left out one important factor, namely, that the very population increases that he had observed, that he had based his calculations on, were themselves the result of scientific and technological advances which create new resources that do not exist naturally. He left out the fact that the population of his own time would have not existed at all without this factor of scientific and technological advances, for which, however, there exist no limit. The limits he saw, were based on a gross omission of certain fundamental principles. Accordingly, his theories were grossly defective, so much so, that under these theories, today's world-population level cannot impossibly be achieved, yet it exists. Not only does the current world-population exist, but it exists at levels of prosperity unattainable in his age, which would be even greater today without the economically repressive measures that have been imposed against mankind's development over the last century. Indeed, it is for this specific game of repressing the development potential of mankind even further, to the point of collapse, that Ortis' work has been revived. Many tens of millions of dollars were poured into the global public relations campaign that reuses Ortis' "carrying capacity" doctrine as the basis for all new-age doctrines for population reduction ideologies and their implementations. Even the Nobel Price is being used to draw pseudo-scientific elements into this despicable campaign that aims at destroying the future of humanity. The oligarchy is evidently committed with the full resources at its disposal, to drive this game forward to whatever degree it deems necessary in order to create the desperation and primitivism that naturally leads to a revival of feudalism and colonialism. Ortis' brand of "carrying capacity" conservatism has many reflections in modern life. The strongest of these surface in the environmental arena. Here we find such elitist lies coming to surface that the world is running out of basic resources, even though the development of infinite resources is but a technological step away, which however, is being prevented in order to make the resource limitations artificially true. In this game, in order to drive the ideology of conservatism home, people are inspired into such self-defeating pursuits recycling tin cans, supposedly to save on the planet's resources. The reality is, that the energy and labor resources that are put into washing the used up tin cans, peeling and steaming the labels off, cutting the lids out, crushing the cans, and getting them collected, sorted, and finally re-melted, etc., are infinitely greater than the energy input that is required for making new cans. From a standpoint of economics, recycling tin cans is a wasteful process. In other words, physical conservation isn't the point in the game. The game has nothing to do with conserving natural resources, since these resources cannot be used up. Not a single ton of metal has been lost from the planet. The cheapest deposits may have been used up, while mankind stood still in developing the infinite resources is has at its disposal. || - page index - || - chapter index - || - Exit - ||
