“We know who’s profiting from emissions—let’s bill them:”  Chevron, Exxon BP, Shell =  Big Oil really is Big Polluter. 

Big Money–Big Oil–Big Government–Big TV Networks spend megabucks to control your mind, to manipulate the collective unconscious.

9O Companies = 63% of man-made global warming emissions

3O% of emissions were produced just by the top 2O companies.

8.9% was from Government-run oil and coal companies in the former Soviet Union 

8.6% was from China’s government-run entities.

3.5% was from ChevronTexaco was the leading corporate emitter 

3.2% was from Exxon 

2.5% was from BP 

9.2% total from Chevron, Exxon and BP = most responsible for climate change

Oil, Coal, Gas companies = Contribute most carbon = Fund denial campaigns

“There are thousands of oil, gas and coal producers in the world. But the decision makers, the CEOs, or the ministers of coal and oil if you narrow it down to just one person, they could all fit on a Greyhound bus or two.”

 — Richard Heede, at the Climate Accountability Institute in Colorado

 Author and documentary filmmaker, Greg Palast, about whether it is peak OlL or OlL dictatorships that are the bigger Threat to the GLOBAL economy.The most expensive OlL costs $3O to pull out while the wholesale price is over three times more – MASSIVE price manipulation of WORLD prices – Using “PEAK OlL” as cover for the Manipulation FRAUD.  Higher priced OlL does make the development of renewable resources more competitive so less OlL is used.  But the BIG OlL CORPORATE MONSTERS use HIGH PRICES AND HIGH LOOTING TO BUY AND SHAPE AMERICAN POLITICS while ruining the PLANET with DlRTY FUEL.At 16:3O MARK of VlDEO – GOOGLE:  keiser-report/money-forest-oil-dictatorship  http://rt.com/programs/keiser-report/money-forest-oil-dictatorship/

PROTECTING DIRTY ENERGY WITH RELIGIOUS LIES AND HORRIBLE EXAGGERATION!

 

“Outsiders are telling public school families that we must follow the rich man’s elitist religion of evolution, that we no longer have what the Kentucky Constitution says is the right to worship almighty God…Instead, this fascist method teaches that our children are the property of the state.”

TURNING POINT FOR AMERICA AND THE WEST = CORRUPTION AND DECLINE

by

TURNING POINT FOR AMERICA AND THE WEST = CORRUPTION AND DECLINE

Click for Paul Farrell’s Source Article

12 killer apps that will crash GDP below 1% by 2100

Commentary: How capitalism is mutating into a self-destruct virus

Fall of c”R”apitalism = 12 “killer apps” = 6 from “principles of prosperity” by Niall Ferguson = 6 killer apps transformed Adam Smith’s theories into reality, ignited the Industrial Revolution, created a new class of superrich capitalists and launched the great American Dream for all of us. = Ferguson’s 6 “killer-apps” explain capitalism’s rise to power = West’s six-part lock on global power for centuries from 1500 to 1970 = Late 1970s the average American was more than 20 times richer than the Chinese

Early 20th century =  12 Western empires = controlled 58% of world’s land surface + 74% of the global economy

After WWII = TURNING POINT = Prosperity killer apps mutated into a narcissistic, self-destructive mutant capitalism, undermining the American Dream.

“The Battle for the Soul of Capitalism.” by Jack Bogle = Saboteur found a voice in the extreme ideology of conservatives = Ayn Rand and free-market capitalists like Big Oil, Big Pharma, defense contractors and corporate shareholders.

6 NEW KILLER APPS Since TURNING POINT = self-destructing American capitalism degrades future economic growth = will strangle the economy in next generation = 1% GDP Growth or less = catastrophic decline will destroy capitalism = restructure the American economy

“Is U.S. Economic Growth Over?” by Robert Gordon in National Bureau of Economic Research = Economist Robert J. Gordon’s challenging NBER paper “Is U.S. Economic Growth Over?”

FACTS:

O.75% Growth for Bottom 99% from 1993 to 2008

52.0% GAINS by Top 1% = Inequality is accelerating = the MONOPOLISTIC superrich get richer and Middle Class capitalism = DESTROYED

$100 TRILLION = China’s economy SOON = Ferguson warns

Ferguson warns = MAIN “insidious cause” of WEST’s decline = HUBRIS+ARROGANCE = America its own worst enemy undermining the very capitalism that made us leaders

# 1 App = Scientific Revolution = “all the major 17th-century breakthroughs in mathematics, astronomy, physics, chemistry and biology happened in Western Europe.” Today we are FAR BEHIND in “Mathematical literacy” and Science Literacy

# 2 App = Revolution in medicine = “19th- and 20th-century breakthroughs in health care were made” by the West in “germ theory, antibiotics and anesthesia.”

Today = America SPENDS 2 to 3 TIMES what Japan or China spends on health care but both beat us with huge increases in life expectancy the last generation.

# 3 App = Democracy and ‘rule of law’ = “an optimal system of social and political order emerged in the English-speaking world.”

Today = America’s = “50th for public trust in the ethics of politicians, 42nd for various forms of bribery,” etc.

# 4 App = Competition: domestic and worldwide =  America’s advantage is gone = “steepest declines among developed economies.” = “extraordinary social polarization” + inequality + NEW “superrich elite…dangerously divorced from the rest of society” = killing America’s edge.

# 5 App = Global consumer economy = “A supply of productivity-enhancing technologies and a demand for more, better and cheaper goods”

Today = 26 of the 30 world’s biggest shopping malls are in emerging markets

# 6 App = America’s work ethic = West worked hard and SAVED HARD!

Today = Asia Works HARD bad SAVES HARD! = We “know which students really drive themselves: the Asians and Asian-Americans.”

Solution = “Delete the viruses that have crept into our system.” = “the anticompetitive quasi monopolies that blight everything from banking to public education + the lobbyists who subvert the rule of law for the sake of the special interests they represent + our overleveraged BIG BANKER FRAUD = ExxonMobil? Big Pharma? Koch brothers? Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz and a do-nothing GOP guided by Ayn Rand extreme “mutant capitalism”

America = At war with itself, Adam Smith and the America Dream versus a self-destructive rigid conservative ideology. = The inevitable ending = a deadly catastrophic event will wake up America’s myopic, self-centered, superrich, our clueless politicians, lobbyists, corporate insiders. = “Civilizations don’t rise, fall, and then gently decline…more like an exponentially steepening slope…suddenly drops off a cliff.” = you’re fine until you’re not fine = a terrifying death spiral”

Gordon’s 6 New “killer apps” reducing US GDP growth to 0.2% in 2100 = US growth rate before the Industrial Revolution (1750).

# 7 App = Out-of-control demographics: “As more baby boomers retire, the number of hours worked per person declines, and growth in GDP per capita” drops 1.6%.

# 8 App = Lagging educational achievements: “US lag in reading, math and science” drops GDP by 1.4%

# 9 App = Widening inequality gap drops GDP by 0.9%

# 10 App = Globalization, automation of more skilled jobs in the US shifting to low-wage countries drops GDP by 0.7%

# 11 App = Carbon tax could drop GDP 0.5%

# 12 App = Excess personal and GOV debt drops GDP 0.2%

Ferguson’s six killer apps capture the exciting rise of Adam Smith’s pure capitalism, the great American Dream, and freedoms that made us the greatest global power in history.

MUTATED capitalism + Gordon’s six new killer apps KILLS CAPITALIST DREAM with ANY RAND c”R”capitalism of the Conservatives CONVERT a win-win game into a loser’s game for everyone = another Shakespearian tragedy = Blind leaders like King Lear, trapped in their narrow ideological egos, like children, unwilling, unable to act, until it’s too late.
