    True or False ?

    Just read this disturbing review of the economic situation in an Independent Blog - well is it True - or False ?



    This is not a Greek crisis or a Euro crisis or even a US crisis (although it all starts there).

    Anyone with an average IQ could understand this problem.

    The capitalist model is based on constant or infinite growth yet with finite resources. This concept really needs to to sink in. FINITE resources. Therefore as economies grow, inevitably populations grow (exponentially) and exceed sustainable levels. Then Governments borrow to sustain the unsustainable populations in the vain hope that "growth" will get them out of the hole. Of course growth never does. It's finite and we are on the downward slope.

    We are running out of everything and fast.
    This of course leads to only one outcome.

    Total collapse and mass die off with a few wars thrown in for good measure. Politicians know all this but they are trapped on the treadmill and cannot comprehend in the capitalist brains how to get off. The solution means turning their backs on everything they stand for. No matter how you rationalise it the world as you know it is going to change forever.

    If you now understand the capitalist model you will realise that the first symptom of total collapse is precisely what is happening now.

    Financial collapse.

    No, it's not you dumb **** - your friend Stalin who is currently getting deep fried in hell equated communism with specific levels of production/consumption in economy, meaning that with population growth resources will be used up.

          Malthus lives!

          This "blog" must be one of the most simplistic "explanations" of the debt crisis ever. Even someone with an average IQ would dismiss it for what it is.
