war stimulus dead 2


WAR STIMULUS DEAD 2
The reasons for war never change.  Man has always been territorial because territory has that nifty little thing called “food” in it, and in all of man’s history, be that religious nutters improbable six thousand years or evolutionists dogmas equally unlikely two million, everything can be explained by food.  Just as in the animal kingdom.  You can be as philosophical as you wish ( “we are a moral and reasoning being” ) but man likes to eat to survive, and will do anything to anyone anywhere or anywhen to do so.
*
( talking to you, delusional dimwits who believe we will go against our best interests in eating to “save the planet” ) Man might have choices and free will and rationalizing ability but he also has cultural programming and biological hardwiring which dictate 99% of his actions.  War-what is it good for?  Survival.  And eating.  So get over it, it is here to stay.  Only HOW war is waged differs.  And how it was waged for a hundred years was to turn the economy into war production.  You could do it seriously half assed, such as when fighting Bush Bitches in a colonial war.
*
You could do it All In, a complete effort holding nothing back, keeping your breeders working rather than breeding, turning all media into propaganda and putting every male from 16 to 60 into uniform ( even if only a civilian traffic director ).  That was when typewriter manufactures were making guns and everyone gardened so as to free up food for other countries.  And as I’ve said many times, you can’t throw excess energy and resources at a Total War if you don’t have those resources.  I don’t think it is rocket science on that one.
*
We can’t fight World War Two again because we aren’t the world’s biggest oil producer like we were then.  I’ve also told you that the US experienced Peak Iron Ore in 1959, yet you refuse to believe we could ever have Peak Silver, Peak Gold or Peak Oil.  And in case you kind of missed science, iron ore isn’t exactly scarce.  If we can run out of that, we can run out of anything.  Oh, except Fracking Oil.  That will last forever! ( sarcasm ).  If we cannot duplicate the resource production of WWII, doesn’t it stand to reason we can’t fight that kind of war again?
*
So, what happened?  Why can’t we fight a war and stimulate the economy like we did in World War Two?  Even if our economy could be industrialized again, which it cannot, with little iron ore to build factories, machines or products, and little oil to power all of that, you also need a sound currency to fund all of this economic activity.  And by sound currency, I mean a currency based on a resource that is growing.  The gold supply used to be growing.  We based our currency on that.  Then oil.  But the supply MUST increase.
*
Going by the brilliance of the Crash Course ( which was pure brilliance, but once he became Peak Prosperity I chocked on the bloody stool of optimism that stunk up every page ), of course you need interest to run a successful system and interest can only be paid by growing resources.  Fascism in Italy, or National Socialism in Germany, was an attempt to fund an industrial economy with a national bank.  You had just enough private profit motive to innovate, but enough state control to direct resources towards war.  The Soviet system was another national banking attempt, but there was no motivation.
*
Capitalism rewards the individual for extra work and innovation but allows a bank to divert resources from national interests.  Communism escapes the bankers clutches but offers no rewards.  Fascism avoids both these negative issues, yet nothing is ever free.  If your fascist system cannot grow because your resource base is not increasing, the states needs start eliminating the reward system.  In a capitalist system, the end of resource growth starts diverting the rewards towards the bankers alone.  That is what we are seeing now in our “anything but socialism” system. 
*
So, “interest” isn’t as correct of an explanation as “growth” would be.  Under either system, the rewards continue if growth continues.  The strength of the capitalist over the fascist system is that although the price is higher, the system is more resilient to shocks, or growth slow down.  That is why “interest” is more important, only in that it is a more robust system.  That is why capitalist empires run by private banks out perform other types.  The Soviets crashed economically with a LOT of resources still in place.  They were just as efficient as a square wheel in getting and using them.
*
Our currency has been based on oil since 1971.  That is the year our oil production started dropping, but Saudi Arabia had plenty of oil to make up for that pesky problem.  But oil fields are only good for about forty years optimally.  If you screw up the well by overproduction, you get less than forty ( to be clear, the well keeps producing a lot longer than that, but it is only economically viable up to about forty years ).  Not only did 2005 mark about the fortieth year of Saudi main field production, it also saw I’m Oh So Sure just coincidentally the year of CONVENTIONAL peak oil globally. 
*
And right after that our housing bubble started to signal trouble ( the Tech Wreck can be blamed on the Russian oil slow down ).  Not JUST because the supply of oil started declining but because the US Dollar is backed by oil.  Growth stopped with the growth of oil.  Any economic system we’ve had for the last five hundred years that was successful was based on growth.  Growth is needed to sustain the economy that powers the empire that growths by wealth and resource extraction. 
*
Out-growing the enemy is a strategy as old as the Agricultural Revolution.  Out grow their population for more breeders, more farmers and more soldiers ( that means you grow population until you die, because otherwise your enemies kills you long before that ).  Out grow them economically to have more trade for more war and more population.  It is, quite literally, grow or die.  A binary position ignored by most who think we can survive sustainability.  Gott Damn tree hugging pukes.  Eat a whale dingus!  If you don’t grow, your enemies grow.  Not Einstein levels of genius here.
*
Aaaand, we continue tomorrow.

  1. Yes. Only an apocalyptic collapse of populations (worldwide, too many mouths to feed, too many foreigners want to consume at 'Merican levels of sloth) will free up the demands on all of the various resources still left or not used up, yet. I still think the lizard overlords know this, are planning, and will cause such a diabolical plan to occur. All of the programmed dogma social justice commandos will willingly suicide collapse, or be patient zero to their own societies if they believe they are bettering humanity and the precious planet. Subject surely has been broached in fiction, think tanks, government planning folders anyway. Good luck, got wheat, and hope to see the minions on the other side of it.

    1. And ammo! Wheat first, but something has to kill the Benign Reptilian Overlords legions of minions. The only two items you REALLY need in bulk and never have enough of, wheat and ammo.

  2. Nevada, the land of plenty...
    Plenty of meat in Nevada for those who want to continue their high meat consumption diets that they've grown accustomed to, post-apoc. If you like scientific studys, you may like this article on distribution of various rodents in various soil/climate zones of eastern Nevada.
    https://digitalscholarship.unlv.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi?article=1322&context=thesesdissertations
    This isn't the study I was referring to the other day, but it's pretty good. Notice how the study references the impact that wild horse herds have on the rodent population? Wild horse herds, AKA "desert elk" (I made that up).
    P.S. The "meat" is mouse.
    Peace out

    1. Appreciate the link-looks like good info to have.

    2. True. Much of the Nevada high desert appears barren and void of enough sustenance for us omnivore types. If a minion is crafty and has a good sense of his area there is enough game forms of all type to be had. Got .22s and lots of ammo?

    3. The deer mouse in the study, Peromyscus maniculatus, apparently is a carrier of Hanta virus and Lyme disease. You don't want anything to do with these. Stick to the wheat porridge, guys....

    4. Nein! Nyet! Don't waste the worlds last rimfire on so little calories. Those are for your Forever Gun. Even in the middle of the Great Basin, pavement and graded rail will allow easier access to those that desire. You must have ammo. Rodents can be had with pellet guns, slingshots, traps, etc.

  3. I just watched Anchorman 2 last night with Pugsley. Bat is chicken of the cave . . . .

    I like this series. We were allowed to be capitalist in the 1950's to out produce the commies. What happens when the oil runs out? Oh, AOC's green paradise! Silly us.

    1. Almost Occidental C**t. The entertainment value is off the charts with that one.
