You guys know me and my random thoughts; I find myself questioning the “WHY and Audacity” of things happening in America. If even 20% of the sensationalism that is projected onto us were true and had transparent and obvious measures, I wouldn’t feel so constantly vexed by the over projections.
I like to look at individuals 360 to determine if they are someone whom I would value hearing an opinion. I am beyond a person’s title and time in their discipline because if 2020 has proven anything, people will relinquish their professional creditability to be on the bandwagon of ignorance.
When it comes to climate people, I listen to the arguments, they sound familiar to the rhetoric that I heard in the 90s, but specifically, I think about their habits and holdings. If you are flying on private jets, or own one, you are not a creditable source for climate advocacy. If you think military planes flying around the country dropping off immigrants or surveilling citizens is okay KNOWING THOSE are gas-powered aircrafts, I can't hear what you are talking about concerning this "crisis". If you are an 08 climate junkie politician and don't have infrastructure brag points up until now, and you don't have geothermal well Tech on your lips, you are not talking about jobs that WERE created from mining and production for a grid that will support the electrical delusions of grandeur... I can't hear you. I don't listen to people that offer up problems with no viable solutions or track record of doing anything but talk about a problem. I can't listen to people that don't highlight obvious progress. I worked with automotive OEMs for years recruiting mechanical engineers. Fuel efficiency and green technology have been a priority and have contributed to decreasing the US carbon footprint. I am also connected with a number of oil and gas professionals whom I like to learn from, they have even made strides to make their process environmentally friendly. I find it also ridiculous that we are not focused more on biodegradable packaging and running simulations on populations with a hybrid of electric and gas vehicles. It is obvious with the GREEN CULT that there is a demographic that is willing to buy EV cars.
The sad thing is, nothing is really transparent. Nobody wants to take the fall for obvious things. If I were President of the US, my priority would be making sure the currency had MAX value at all times backed by natural resources and not debt. At this point, I'm not focused on how we got here, I am thinking about how we fix it. We have to redistribute wealth to the bottom to motivate productivity and GET Producing. This nation needs to invest in its people in a meaningful way (NOT RACISM AND RECYCLED/NONSENSICAL SPEAK). Invest in the curious kid born in the poverty line that has nothing aspirational around him. Back in the day, at least they had a hope of working in the neighborhood plant...those plants are overseas now. So all he has is Black market survival and/or gang life.
Problems and Solutions
Correct! No Manufacturing jobs in America. 1/ Communism is NOT our friend. Communism is antithetical to our American values. 2/ Nixon opened to door to China back in 1972. He thought, unfortunately incorrectly, that this would open the China "mind" to the benefits of Capitalism where China would evolve from a hard-line Communist State into something more tolerable. and "mutually" beneficial. 3/ What evolved was not mutual at all, but due to our own Greed for $$$ on both Management and Labor sides ... jobs were shipped to China for the benefit of lower costs. Well, we did get lower cost and lower quality that's for sure. We also idiotically ran most of our manufacturing base to China and other Far East countries resulting in our current manufacturing base of just 11 % down from its peak in 1979. Consequently, all those decent paying Blue Collar jobs that kids who were not looking for professional careers requiring a college education, could rely on ... are simply no more.
And yet none dare admit who is BEHIND this evil, lest they be deleted!
