Good Morning all of you free thinkers out there in Sanity Land; your King of Simple News is on the air.

As I wind down this site I want to thank my readers and commenter’s and award you the title of “Best of the Best” in the genre of “basic controlling economics,” and your innate understanding of the integral part that human psychology plays in the madness of our impossible exponential growth culture.

Madness, delusion, hallucinations, insanity, psychosis, lunacy….call it what you may, but the patients are in fact running the asylum. A smattering of examples are in order.

The great marble city of Washington D.C. is touted as a shining beacon of hope and freedom to the remainder of the world as our leadership gathers to allocate Billions upon Billons of borrowed fiat dollars to assist poverty stricken people around the planet. Yet, just outside the Beltway, in that same city of Washington D.C., lies a predominantly Black community that has never known anything other than poverty, crime, and corruption and which remains invisible to this day.

As Americans search the world for poverty stricken foreign children to adopt and add to our already overpopulated nation; thousands of American children live in abject poverty, choosing a gang and drug culture as a pure survival mechanism in a failed societal system.

In the land of opportunity for all and the epitome of freedom and justice, we house the greatest percentage of our citizens in prisons of any nation in the world.

As we flood our borders with both legal and illegal immigrants, our children and grandchildren can no longer find viable employment. To combat the unemployment issue, our leadership authors new laws that legally export our most important jobs.

The Colorado River has gone dry; L.A., Las Vegas and Phoenix plan on using more water from that source.

As Atlanta’s water supply, Lake Lanier, is drying up; Atlanta plans on more growth and greater water consumption.

As oil declines; we plan to grow our population and use ever greater amounts of oil.

As the world fisheries decline and totally perish; we plan on eating more fish.

As the last of the rare earth minerals are harvested; we plan on using ever greater amounts of the same to produce solar panels to replace our reliance on fossil fuels.

As our cities, towns, counties, and states lack the funding to maintain their current infrastructure; we plan on building more infrastructure.

As finite physical inputs decline; we plan on exponentially increased outputs.

I could go on for pages, but there is no need. “The Biggest Lie Ever Believed,” is playing out in real life and real time. It is physically impossible to grow exponentially in a finite world.

Nearly two years ago I stated that the United States had reached PHYSICAL ZENITH and that real GDP cannot possibly grow if one cares to factor in increased debt, inflation, and per-capita share of that same GDP.

I have also stated that there is no possibility of linear decline from the delusional state that I have described above.

The path followed from a problem that was created by an exponential function being included in our very means of survival is the backside of a vertical exponential curve; better described as a cliff. There is no other way.

There are problems, that if left uncorrected for a sufficient period of time, eclipse the possibility of a palatable solution. Our system of debt-based-growth-capitalism is just such an example. It is my unswerving opinion that there are no pleasant solutions left available to us as a whole.

So that brings us down to the proverbial fork in the road doesn’t it? We can follow the well traveled path of the deluded multitudes, or make difficult personal choices that require thought and knowledge and that follow the dim trail of non-convention. Choose wisely.
