A History of Looming Disasters
I’m starting to get the hang of this Live Stream business, but obviously there’s a long way to go. This is a tad rough around the edges, at it was all done live, without a net, as it were. Nevertheless, I do hope you will enjoy it and I look forward to your observations, comments, and suggestions below:

You did a good job and these trends are coming full circle – Agenda 2021 and Agenda 2024 have all the check off boxes. These measures are to create a world government. We didn’t elect Klaus Schwab but he seems to think we did….I noticed a brand new all plant based meat section at Publix this week………..so don’t believe the line, “if you like your turkey, you can keep your turkey” – oh wait – I think that was the lie about Obamacare…………
Awesome new set up Dave!
One more thing – this Paul Eurlich that you mentioned had the opposite opinion of the social science psychologists back then who created the documentary The Demographic Winter:
Demographic Winter – the decline of the human family (Full Movie) – YouTube
Now with all the gender choices and decline of the family and removal of moral boundaries, less children are being born in Europe and the US and less families are being formed – this show what they predicted would be the consequences for that.
Interesting! I’ll have to watch the whole video. Thanks for pointing me this direction!
Thanks, Nick! I’ve about got the technical kinks worked out, so I’m looking forward, finally, to focusing more attention on content and less on whether the [expletive] lights are going to work.
There I was, making cloth as usual, pumping the foot pedals, using my pickup stick like a pro when I realized I was weaving the wrong tartan pattern. It was a…. looming disaster.
(I’ll show myself out…)
Oh bartender? Another round for my friend here please.
Wow, that is quite the set-up you’ve got there!
Thanks!! It’s been an arduous process getting it all set up and running correctly. Thankfully, it seems to be working nicely at the moment.
OK, so maybe those disaster predictions from the 60’s and 70’s were wrong, but we’re right about the disasters we’re predicting today. It’s like talking to someone on the left who concedes that yes, socialism has failed in the past and the wealthy countries of the world have (mostly) free markets, but those old fashioned economic principles don’t work anymore. This time we’re going to make socialism work!
Another good show, Dave.
I don’t know why I hit the Like button for this. But I did.
Thank you!! And of course,…we really shouldn’t pay attention to one colossal failure of statist and collectivist policies after another, since their intentions are as pure as the wind-driven slush and we all know that they’ll get it right this time. ;)
Bill Hates is now the owner of 25% of all farmland in the USA. He is razor-sharp focused on plant substitutes for meat. He explains that given how much water and grain it takes to bring a cow to market, we should be ashamed to eat meat. He adds that every ounce of water and grain being used for livestock deprives the third world poor of that water and grain, so as the Lefties state: “Meat is not sustainable.”
Of course, how a family farmer in Lake County Calif, using irrigation waters pumped out of the aquifers available to him is affecting a tribal nomad in the Sahara region, I can’t fathom. But it must be so, right, as Hates is so smart and is the world’s leading philanthropist!
Excellent podcast, Dave.
That seems like a shockingly high amount of farmland. I did a little snooping around the internet and found numerous recent articles that confirm that Gates is America’s largest owner of farmland. These articles peg the number at 242,00 acres. According to this web site, the total amount of U.S. farmland is 896,600,000 acres. Looking at the graph it looks like 896,600 acres but then you see the note that says those are measurements of thousands of acres. So Bill Gates owns approximately 0.027% of farmland in the U.S. And the articles I found say that lots of rich people invest in farmland because it’s a pretty stable investment. Since Bill Gates has more money than almost anybody else, it’s not a surprise that he would have invested more into farmland than anybody else.
