“Why is it that everyone I meet, that expects a pending societal collapse, is focused on weapons?
Do you have seeds? Do you have tools? Do you know how to filter water? Where are the crafters? Who can blacksmith, work leather, sew, do carpentry? Who knows medicine, herblore, and identify edible plants? We won’t survive a collapse by killing each other. We will only survive with benevolent skilled communities working together. Get with it.”

“Malcom X warned us more than 50 yrs ago!
“This is the media. An irresponsible media. “It will make the criminal look like he’s the victim and make the victim look like he’s the criminal, the media will have you hating the people who are being oppressed and loving the people who are doing the oppressing.”
…”This is sort of a propaganda tactic that I would call psychological warfare.” -- Malcom X

“Bailout The Future Leaders Of America, NOT The Oil Companies
Time and time again the US government has bailed out the oil and gas companies that are directly contributing to the climate crisis, but has refused to bail out student debt.”

“What climate neutrality will cost Germany
Germany wants to be climate neutral by 2045. Restructuring its economy will cost trillions. But not investing the money would cost even more.”
"Germany amended its climate law this year to aim for greenhouse gas neutrality by 2045 after its highest court declared its old plans partly unconstitutional. But bringing the climate balance of the EU's biggest emitter to zero will cost a lot of money: €6 trillion ($7 trillion), according to a recent "Net-Zero Germany" study by consulting firm McKinsey.
Germany would need to invest 7% of its economic output — about €240 billion — into green technologies and infrastructure each year. It's an "unprecedented task," said Ruth Heuss, a senior partner at McKinsey and co-author of the study."
"Next ten years 'crucial'
In total, this would require an additional €1 trillion of investment. A further €5 trillion of funding that would be spent regardless would need to be invested differently — namely in green technologies. This could be used for subsidies to buy electric cars, for example, or support entrepreneurs who invest in climate-friendly production processes instead of keeping old plants online. It also includes investments in public transport, charging stations for electric cars, battery storage and the expansion of a nationwide infrastructure for green hydrogen. The money could be redirected from polluting investments like subsidies for air travel.
Money is less critical than time, said Heuss, because the latter is in short supply. "The next ten years are the crucial ones. We need to roughly triple the speed at which we decarbonize."
Years of approval procedures for solar parks, power lines or the location of wind turbines can no longer be afforded, she added, neither from an ecological nor an economic point of view. And the longer the conversion is delayed, the faster the measures would have to be implemented — which in turn leads to higher costs. That's why it's crucial "to create the framework conditions relatively quickly now".

Instead of violating their oath of office:
“The Economic Bill of Rights (January 11, 1944)
“The economic truths are self-evident; and we have accepted a second Bill of Rights under which a new basis of security and prosperity can be established for all – regardless of station, race, or creed.
Among these are:
The right to a useful and remunerative job.
The right to earn enough to provide necessities.
The right of every family to a decent home.
The right to adequate medical care.
The right to a good education.
The right to adequate protection from the economic fears of old age, sickness, accident and unemployment.
All of these rights spell security. We must move forward in the implementation of these rights, to a new goals of human happiness and well-being. America’s own rightful place in the world depends in large part upon how these and similar rights have been carried into practice for our citizens.”
