When the lights come on again ... no, they won't
Here's an excellent essay on the continuing unstoppable collapse of America, including a remarkable eyewitness account of the moment when it started.
While the brand-R traitors and the brand-D traitors in the Upper and Lower Nuthouses sling meaningless words at each other, the real economy continues to dissolve. And it's dissolving because of conditions that the Nuthouses could fix in one day.
The problems are:
1. The 9th Circuit Court (and generally the unchecked imperial power of courts)
2. Regulations that make nuclear power impossible.
3. Uncontrolled trade with China.
None of these problems are scientific or economic, none require further analysis.
JUST ONE DAY of well-directed legislative activity could solve every one of these problems with absolutely zero cost. American industry could then start on the road toward real recovery, with enough growth to take care of the national debt. This is what happened after WW2, when our debt was equally large.
Needless to say, this ain't gonna happen. We will continue downward until some governor has the guts to secede, or the guts to disobey a law that really counts, a law that serves the Planet Goddess Gaia, a law that serves our Chinese masters. Then Civil War II will start, and the Feds will finally use those long-stored H-bombs and A-bombs. They never had the balls to send ICBM's against real attackers like Arabia, but I guarantee the Feds will launch against heretics. In a New York second. And then, glory of glories, we will finally have plenty of nuclear energy across the American plains! Cockroaches and Goldman Sachs will survive. ¶ 7:27 AM
