    CO2 “carbon tax” is a global rent on life itself…who collects

    While everyone knows that we need alternative energy sources, human CO2 is not a problem and the natural ebb and flow climate change is not a problem, never has been.

    Emotive reasoning is unfortunately driving logic. That is the human condition. A bad reality TV show which you can never escape.

    @Max

    Have you explored “peak gold”

    New mine production falling, environmental concerns and central banks now switching from sellers to buyers.

    I am raising my expectations for the gold price…

    “Emotive reasoning is unfortunately driving logic.”

    How so, WL?

    @WL:
    Peak gold was created by the same powers that are set to benefit from peak oil and co2 emission taxes.

    This Chinese economic Frankenstein story is going to end badly just like the book and movie version.

    Let’s try another angle on Climate Change. It’s not as simple as sequestering CO2. Why not preserve forests and plant more trees? Grow food locally. Lots of real life corrections.

    O2 Dropping Faster than CO2 Rising

    Implications for Climate Change Policies

    New research shows oxygen depletion in the atmosphere accelerating since 2003, coinciding with the biofuels boom; climate policies that focus exclusively on carbon sequestration could be disastrous for all oxygen-breathing organisms including humans Dr. Mae-Wan Ho

    The Next Really Scary Bubble
    Catherine and News & Commentary, July 1, 2009 at 8:07 am
    If you think the housing and credit bubble diminished your financial security and your community, or the bailouts, or the rising gas prices did as well, hold on to your hat. The worst may be yet to come. Carbon trading is gearing up to make the housing and derivatives bubbles look like target practice.

    Here are some comments on H.R. 2454, the American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009:

    “economic colonization of the heartland”

    -Rep. Geoff Davis (R-Kentucky)

    “a scam”

    -Rep. Devin Nunes (R-California)

    “massive transfer of wealth”

    -Rep. James Sensenbrenner (R-Wisconsin)

    “Carbon markets can and will be manipulated using the same Wall Street sleights of hand that brought us the financial crisis.”

    -Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-Ohio)

    And from Elizabeth Kolbert’s New Yorker interview with James Hansen, NASA’s climate expert:”Hansen pointed out that the bill explicity allows for the construction of new coal plants and predicted that it would, if passed, prove close to meaningless. He said that he thought it would probably be best if the bill failed…”

    Please pick holes in this…

    During the early-to-mid 20th Century, the Powers That Be (PTB) became aware of the implications of man-made global warming. They recognised the probability that this was a big issue that would have to be dealt with at some point. They also told their children.

    Fast-forward to 2009…

    The PTB of today consists of those children, plus several other wealthy/influential families who most definitely DO believe in man-made global warming.

    The PTB have had short-term and long-term objectives.

    Their short-term objectives have been successful – to have a good time, to amass massive wealth (which is now gold, as I’ll explain more about in a minute…) and obtain the social/political
    power to implement their long term strategy.

    Two facts: Fiat currency is dying. Our world is warming because of humanity’s industry-driven carbon emissions.

    The PTB VERY aware of these facts.

    Put yourself in their shoes for a second. You know the world is warming because of the mass of humanity; you are a sociopath who cares for little – apart from the desire for more power and survival.

    What to do?

    Easy. You use the financial services industry to provide you with massive profits that allows you extract the wealth from the working and middle class – to buy yourself lots of gold quite cheaply (until recently).

    After you’ve got all your gold, you then blend that with a growing all-powerful attitude. This attitude is not dissimilar to the mindset of past Kings who believed they ruled by divine power.

    So, we now have a wealthy elite with enough gold to base a new currency on – if there weren’t so many other bloody folk with no gold, who are also creating all this bloody carbon that’s going to screw the planet it up for me.

    “Wait a minute!”

    “What if I simply got rid of most of them. That would work!”

    And then we hear about Ukraine. Despite a media blackout and lots of scientific jargon, it would appear that we are seeing BOTH swine flu and plague-like symptoms in the same place.

    Note: plague has two main types, all from the same bug – Bubonic (attacks lymph nodes and the like) and Pneumonic, which fills your lungs up with bloody liquid.

    Swine Flu is a virus. Plague is bacterial.

    There are concerns that the new Swine Flu vaccine contains adjuvents (additives) that weaken the immune system. It is claimed by some that adjuvents are linked to ‘Gulf War Syndrome’.

    Can you imagine the effect a plague outbreak would have on a low immune system population?

    Enough deaths to stop global warming and enable gold to be used as a ‘proper’ currency by a smaller sociopathic population?

    I hereby lay claim to the ‘Sociopathic Kings vs The Expendable Class’ theory.

    MISH stated that he and Bob Hoye were some of the very few who called last years panic……
    .Bob Hoye is stating…(go to Howe Street) that at 3 percents bulls on the US dollar the only resolution to this extreme is a reverse! A change in currencies will result in an increase in the US dollar and a decline in Asset prices globally….This is process is imminent…Phase 2 of Economic Global Contraction…..Betting on a worthless dollar is a LONG LONG term play but deadly when you want to protect yourself….. value of the senior currency will increase vs. assets will decrease (that means gold in nominal terms as well)….typical Mises…. Max get this man on!
