I miss my Saturday Morning cartoons. The good old fashioned kind when Bugs Bunny was viciously ruthless in his dealings with Elmer Fudd and Yosemite Sam. I enjoyed the violent repartee played out each week by Foghorn Leghorn and the dog. Wylie E. Coyote was much more enjoyable before he began to speak. Tom and Jerry were always better as enemies than friends. Then a hippie, no doubt with an impressive list of academic achievements to their credit convinced the powers that be that cartoons were creating violent maniacal children. The bland, non entertaining, sans violence, Saturday Morning Cartoon was born. something funny happened which I am sure is a pure coincidence, our children became much more unruly and more prone to commit acts of violence within a generation. Personally, I believe this has more to do with the insane societal ban on corporal punishment than cartoon violence, but I still want to see Bugs Bunny in drag convincing Elmer Fudd to shoot Daffy Duck in the Face by exclaiming that he would just love a duck dinner. Welcome to the Captain Planet Generation. We have produced brain dead morons who are unable to consider anything that they are told critically.
For those of you who do not know him, Captain Planet is a cartoon character who flies around the globe shutting down businesses and closing down factories in an effort to save the Earth, from global warming. It is a show designed for pre to early elementary aged kids. The indoctrination effort of the Marxists upon our kids began in the 90’s, and it started at an early age. Al Gore’s thoroughly discredited movie is still being shown as a science curriculum in our nation’s public science classes, to kids at the elementary and intermediate levels. The ties between the Marxists we thought were put out of business by the collapse of the Soviet Union and the implosion of the Eastern Bloc and the Global Green Movement have been well and completely documented. They are still trying to inflict their failed economic agenda upon the world through the ecological movement. Energy production you see, is the engine that drives a robust economy. With our ability to utilize an efficient and very inexpensive source of energy, our economy is impossible for them to topple. Which is why Captain Planet has told an entire generation of kiddies that we need to shut down everything but solar panels and windmills in order to make Earth feel better about itself.
A funny thing happened on the way to the Marxist shooting of the moon. The green companies in this country all began failing in spectacular fashion a full year and a half ahead of schedule. Unfortunately for them and fortunately for us, the Marxists are even worse at economics than anyone realized. Nobody told them that no business could possible stay afloat by selling a product which cost them $6 to produce for $3. The reason we had to sell them for $3 you see is that the Chinese were able to produce their product and sell it at a profit for that price, and that includes the cost of shipping it halfway around the world. Think for just a moment how cheaply this very product could be sold in China. Even with that fact, the only people buying Chinese Solar Panels are us here in the good ole U.S.A. So, what kind of energy sources does China employ?
Oct. 12 (Bloomberg) — Prime Minister Vladimir Putin said Russia is nearing an agreement with China to supply natural gas to the world’s biggest energy consumer.
“Those who sell always want to sell at a higher price, while those who buy want to buy at a lower price,” Putin said yesterday at the start of a meeting with Chinese Prime Minister Wen Jiabao in Beijing. “We need to reach a compromise that will satisfy both sides.”
The Russian premier, who is making his first foreign trip since announcing plans to return to the presidency next year, is seeking to overcome a stalemate in talks on natural gas deliveries to China. Russia, the world’s largest energy exporter, has delayed plans to build gas pipelines to the Asian country for more than a decade because of wrangling over how much China will pay for the fuel.
Russian gas export monopoly OAO Gazprom plans to ship Siberian gas from as early as 2015, with total annual deliveries to reach 68 billion cubic meters, more than 60 percent of China’s 2010 consumption, according to BP Plc’s Statistical Review of World Energy.
So, how did we get here, to a place in history where Vladimir Putin, a member of the old Communist guard in the former Soviet Union, would be a far superior business person than the guys running our country and posses a far greater understanding of economics than our own leaders to boot? The first warning sign that something was terribly wrong with the entire green movement was when they declared the debate over. The second warning sign should have been the indoctrination techniques and outright thuggery employed to silence any critics of their failed theories. Now that their hypothesis has been completely debunked by scientific experiments conducted at Cern, the true purpose of Marxism is the only explanation left for the entire farce. But the fact that the former Marxist nations selling us this wonderful green technology do not even employ it themselves is the single best clue to the bull shit I could possible think of. By the way, guess where those GE windmills are built. That’s right, in China. The Chinese aren’t using those either. In fact, the Chinese are building two coal burning electric power plants each and every day.
