The problem is, of course, that not only is economics bankrupt, but it has always been nothing more than politics in disguise... economics is a form of brain damage.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('BlisteredWhippet', ' ')Sitting on one's ass and waiting for revelation to come in the form of an irrefutable truth or comprehensive argument is part and parcel of the intellectual syphilis the country is infested with.

That is regardless of "butterfly effect".
Influence of an individual is irrelevant in our current situation.
I would say, whatever we can possibly do, it will be too little and too late.

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('Plantagenet', '
')The idea that human die-off will occur sometime in the future because of the effects of peak oil is neither a "law" nor a "theroy" (sic).

It is a prediction. The prediction of human "die-off" may or may come true.....the future is notoriously difficult to predict. :-D

$this->bbcode_second_pass_quote('yeahbut', ''')hope pops it's fragile cranium out of the trenches ever so occasionally, and is bludgeoned into a bloody pulp. Hope is for losers/dreamers who can't see that we need to eradicate at least 50% of the humans on this planet'.
