Many people believe that installing more wind turbines and solar panels and manufacturing more electric vehicles can solve our energy problem, but I don’t agree with them. These devices, plus the batteries, charging stations, transmission lines and many other structures necessary to make them work represent a high level of complexity.
A relatively low level of complexity, such as the complexity embodied in a new hydroelectric dam, can sometimes be used to solve energy problems, but we cannot expect ever-higher levels of complexity to always be achievable.
According to the anthropologist Joseph Tainter, in his well-known book, The Collapse of Complex Societies, there are diminishing returns to added complexity. In other words, the most beneficial innovations tend to be found first. Later innovations tend to be less helpful. Eventually the energy cost of added complexity becomes too high, relative to the benefit provided.
In this post, I will discuss complexity further. I will also present evidence that the world economy may already have hit complexity limits. Furthermore, the popular measure, “Energy Return on Energy Investment” (EROEI) pertains to direct use of energy, rather than energy embodied in added complexity. As a result, EROEI indications tend to suggest that innovations such as wind turbines, solar panels and EVs are more helpful than they really are. Other measures similar to EROEI make a similar mistake.
[1] In this video with Nate Hagens, Joseph Tainter explains how energy and complexity tend to grow simultaneously, in what Tainter calls the Energy-Complexity Spiral.
According to Tainter, energy and complexity build on each other. At first, growing complexity can be helpful to a growing economy by encouraging the uptake of available energy products. Unfortunately, this growing complexity reaches diminishing returns because the easiest, most beneficial solutions are found first. When the benefit of added complexity becomes too small relative to the additional energy required, the overall economy tends to collapse–something he says is equivalent to “rapidly losing complexity.”
Growing complexity can make goods and services less expensive in several ways:
- Economies of scale arise due to larger businesses.
- Globalization allows use of alternative raw materials, cheaper labor and energy products.
- Higher education and more specialization allow more innovation.
- Improved technology allows goods to be less expensive to manufacture.
- Improved technology may allow fuel savings for vehicles, allowing ongoing fuel savings.
Strangely enough, in practice, growing complexity tends to lead to more fuel use, rather than less. This is known as Jevons’ Paradox. If products are less expensive, more people can afford to buy and operate them, so that total energy consumption tends to be greater.
[2] In the above linked video, one way Professor Tainter describes complexity is that it is something that adds structure and organization to a system.
The reason I consider electricity from wind turbines and solar panels to be much more complex than, say, electricity from hydroelectric plants, or from fossil fuel plants, is because the output from the devices is further from what is needed to fill the demands of the electricity system we currently have operating. Wind and solar generation need complexity to fix their intermittency problems.
With hydroelectric generation, water is easily captured behind a dam. Often, some of the water can be stored for later use when demand is high. The water captured behind the dam can be run through a turbine, so that the electrical output matches the pattern of alternating current used in the local area. The electricity from a hydroelectric dam can be quickly added to other available electricity generation to match the pattern of electricity consumption users would prefer.
On the other hand, the output of wind turbines and solar panels requires a great deal more assistance (“complexity”) to match the electricity consumption pattern of consumers. Electricity from wind turbines tends to be very disorganized. It comes and goes according to its own schedule. Electricity from solar panels is organized, but the organization is not well aligned with the pattern of consumers prefer.
A major issue is that electricity for heating is required in winter, but solar electricity is disproportionately available in the summer; wind availability is irregular. Batteries can be added, but these mostly mitigate wrong “time-of-day” problems. Wrong “time-of-year” problems need to be mitigated with a lightly used parallel system. The most popular backup system seems to be natural gas, but backup systems with oil or coal can also be used.
This double system has a higher cost than either system would have if operated alone, on a full-time basis. For example, a natural gas system with pipelines and storage needs to be put in place, even if electricity from natural gas is only used for part of the year. The combined system needs experts in all areas, including electricity transmission, natural gas generation, repair of wind turbines and solar panels, and battery manufacture and maintenance. All of this requires educational systems and international trade, sometimes with unfriendly countries.
I also consider electric vehicles to be complex. One major problem is that the economy will require a double system, (for internal combustion engines and electric vehicles) for many, many years. Electric vehicles require batteries made using elements from around the world. They also need a whole system of charging stations to fill their need for frequent recharging.
[3] Professor Tainter makes the point that complexity has an energy cost, but this cost is virtually impossible to measure.
Energy needs are hidden in many areas. For example, to have a complex system, we need a financial system. The cost of this system cannot be added back in. We need modern roads and a system of laws. The cost of a government providing these services cannot be easily discerned. An increasingly complex system needs education to support it, but this cost is also hard to measure. Also, as we note elsewhere, having double systems adds other costs that are hard to measure or predict.
[3] The energy-complexity spiral cannot continue forever in an economy.
The energy-complexity spiral can reach limits in at least three ways:
[a] Extraction of minerals of all kinds is placed in the best locations first. Oil wells are first placed in areas where oil is easy to extract and close to population areas. Coal mines are first placed in locations where coal is easy to extract and transportation costs to users will be low. Mines for lithium, nickel, copper, and other minerals are put in the best-yielding locations first.
Eventually, the cost of energy production rises, rather than falls, due to diminishing returns. Oil, coal, and energy products become more expensive. Wind turbines, solar panels, and batteries for electric vehicles also tend to become more expensive because the cost of the minerals to manufacture them rises. All kinds of energy goods, including “renewables,” tend to become less affordable. In fact, there are many reports that the cost of producing wind turbines and solar panels rose in 2022, making the manufacture of these devices unprofitable. Either higher prices of finished devices or lower profitability for those producing the devices could stop the rise in usage.
[b] Human population tends to keep rising if food and other supplies are adequate, but the supply of arable land stays close to constant. This combination puts pressure on society to produce a continuous stream of innovations that will allow greater food supply per acre. These innovations eventually reach diminishing returns, making it more difficult for food production to keep up with population growth. Sometimes adverse fluctuations in weather patterns make it clear that food supplies have been too close to the minimum level for many years. The growth spiral is pushed down by spiking food prices and the poor health of workers who can only afford an inadequate diet.
[c] Growth in complexity reaches limits. The earliest innovations tend to be most productive. For example, electricity can be invented only once, as can the light bulb. Globalization can only go so far before a maximum level is reached. I think of debt as part of complexity. At some point, debt cannot be repaid with interest. Higher education (needed for specialization) reaches limits when workers cannot find jobs with sufficiently high wages to repay educational loans, besides covering living costs.
[4] One point Professor Tainter makes is that if the available energy supply is reduced, the system will need to simplify.
Typically, an economy grows for well over one hundred years, reaches energy-complexity limits, and then collapses over a period of years. This collapse can occur in different ways. A layer of government can collapse. I think of the collapse of the central government of the Soviet Union in 1991 as a form of collapse to a lower level of simplicity. Or one country conquers another country (with energy-complexity problems), taking over the government and resources of the other country. Or a financial collapse occurs.
Tainter says that simplification usually doesn’t happen voluntarily. One example he gives of voluntary simplification involves the Byzantine Empire in the 7th century. With less funding available for the military, it abandoned some of its distant posts, and it used a less costly approach to operating its remaining posts.
[5] In my opinion, it is easy for EROEI calculations (and similar calculations) to overstate the benefit of complex types of energy supply.
A major point that Professor Tainter makes in the talk linked above is that complexity has an energy cost, but the energy cost of this complexity is virtually impossible to measure. He also makes the point that growing complexity is seductive; the overall cost of complexity tends to grow over time. Models tend to miss necessary parts of the overall system needed to support a highly complex new source of energy supply.
Because the energy required for complexity is hard to measure, EROEI calculations with respect to complex systems will tend to make complex forms of electricity generation, such as wind and solar, look like they use less energy (have a higher EROEI) than they actually do. The problem is that EROEI calculations consider only direct “energy investment” costs. For example, the calculations are not designed to collect information regarding the higher energy cost of a dual system, with parts of the system under-utilized for portions of the year. Annual costs will not necessarily be reduced proportionately.
In the linked video, Professor Tainter talks about the EROEI of oil over the years. I don’t have a problem with this type of comparison, especially if it stops before the recent change to greater use of fracking, since the level of complexity is similar. In fact, such a comparison omitting fracking seems to be the one that Tainter makes. Comparison among different energy types, with different complexity levels, is what is easily distorted.
[6] The current world economy already seems to be trending in the direction of simplification, suggesting that the tendency toward greater complexity is already past its maximum level, given the lack of availability of inexpensive energy products.
I wonder if we are already starting to see simplification in trade, especially international trade, because shipping (generally using oil products) is becoming high-priced. This might be considered a type of simplification, in response to a lack of sufficient inexpensive energy supply.
Based on Figure 2, trade as a percentage of GDP hit a peak in 2008. There has been a generally downward trend in trade since then, giving an indication that the world economy has tended to shrink back, at least in some ways, as it has hit high-price limits.
Another example of a trend toward lower complexity is the drop in US undergraduate college and university enrollment since 2010. Other data shows that undergraduate enrollment nearly tripled between 1950 and 2010, so the shift to a downtrend after 2010 presents a major turning point.
The reason why the shift in enrollment is a problem is because colleges and universities have a huge amount of fixed expenses. These include buildings and grounds that must be maintained. Often debt needs to be repaid, as well. Educational systems also have tenured faculty members that they are obligated to keep on their staff, under most circumstances. They may have pension obligations that are not fully funded, adding another cost pressure.
According to the college faculty members whom I have talked to, in recent years there has been pressure to improve the retention rate of students who have been admitted. In other words, they feel that they are being encouraged to keep current students from dropping out, even if it means lowering their standards a little. At the same time, faculty wages are not keeping pace with inflation.
Other information suggests that colleges and universities have recently put a great deal of emphasis on achieving a more diverse student body. Students who might not have been admitted in the past because of low high school grades are increasingly being admitted in order to keep the enrollment from dropping further.
From the students’ point of view, the problem is that jobs that pay a sufficiently high wage to justify the high cost of a college education are increasingly unavailable. This seems to be the reason for both the US student debt crisis and the drop in undergraduate enrollment.
Of course, if colleges are at least somewhat lowering their admission standards and perhaps lowering standards for graduation, as well, there is a need to “sell” these increasingly diverse graduates with somewhat lower undergraduate achievement records to governments and businesses who might hire them. It seems to me that this is a further sign of the loss of complexity.
[7] In 2022, the total energy costs for most OECD countries started spiking to high levels, relative to GDP. When we analyze the situation, electricity prices are spiking, as are the prices of coal and natural gas–the two types of fuel used most frequently to produce electricity.
The OECD is an intergovernmental organization of mostly rich countries that was formed to stimulate economic progress and foster world growth. It includes the US, most European countries, Japan, Australia, and Canada, among other countries. Figure 4, with the caption “Periods of high energy expenditures are often associated with recession” is has been prepared by two economists working for OECD. The gray bars indicate recession.
Figure 4 shows that in 2021, prices for practically every cost segment associated with energy consumption tended to spike. Electricity, coal, and natural gas prices were all very high relative to prior years. The only segment of energy costs that was not very out of line relative to costs in prior years was oil. Coal and natural gas are both used to make electricity, so high electricity costs should not be surprising.
In Figure 4, the caption by the economists from OECD is pointing out what should be obvious to economists everywhere: High energy prices often push an economy into recession. Citizens are forced to cut back on non-essentials, reducing demand and pushing their economies into recession.
[8] The world seems to be up against extraction limits for coal. This, together with the high cost of shipping coal over long distances, is leading to very high prices for coal.
World coal production has been close to flat since 2011. Growth in electricity generation from coal has been almost as flat as world coal production. Indirectly, this lack of growth in coal production is forcing utilities around the world to move to other types of electricity generation.
[9] Natural gas is now also in short supply when growing demand of many types is considered.
While natural gas production has been growing, in recent years it hasn’t been growing quickly enough to keep up with the world’s rising demand for natural gas imports. World natural gas production in 2021 was only 1.7% higher than production in 2019.
Growth in the demand for natural gas imports comes from several directions, simultaneously:
- With coal supply flat and imports not sufficiently available, countries are seeking to substitute natural gas generation for coal generation of electricity. China is the world’s largest importer of natural gas partly for this reason.
- Countries with electricity from wind or solar find that electricity from natural gas can ramp up quickly and fill in when wind and solar aren’t available.
- There are several countries, including Indonesia, India and Pakistan, whose natural gas production is declining.
- Europe chose to end its pipeline imports of natural gas from Russia and now needs more LNG instead.
[10] Prices for natural gas are extremely variable, depending on whether the natural gas is locally produced, and depending on how it is shipped and the type of contract it is under. Generally, locally produced natural gas is the least expensive. Coal has somewhat similar issues, with locally produced coal being the least expensive.
This is a chart from a recent Japanese publication (IEEJ).
The low Henry Hub price at the bottom is the US price, available only locally. If supplies are high within the US, its price tends to be low. The next higher price is Japan’s price for imported liquefied natural gas (LNG), arranged under long-term contracts, over a period of years. The top price is the price that Europe is paying for LNG based on “spot market” prices. Spot market LNG is the only type of LNG available to those who did not plan ahead.
In recent years, Europe has been taking its chances on getting low spot market prices, but this approach can backfire badly when there is not enough to go around. Note that the high price of European imported LNG was already evident in January 2013, before the Ukraine invasion began.
A major issue is that shipping natural gas is extremely expensive, tending to at least double or triple the price to the user. Producers need to be guaranteed a high price for LNG over the long term to make all of the infrastructure needed to produce and ship natural gas as LNG profitable. The extremely variable prices for LNG have been a problem for natural gas producers.
The very high recent prices for LNG in Europe have made the price of natural gas too high for industrial users who need natural gas for processes other than making electricity, such as making nitrogen fertilizer. These high prices cause distress from the lack of inexpensive natural gas to spill over into the farming sector.
Most people are “energy blind,” especially when it comes to coal and natural gas. They assume that there is plenty of both fuels to be cheaply extracted, essentially forever. Unfortunately, for both coal and natural gas, the cost of shipping tends to be very high. This is something that modelers miss. It is the high delivered cost of natural gas and coal that makes it impossible for companies to actually extract the amounts of coal and natural gas that seem to be available based on reserve estimates.
[10] When we analyze electricity consumption in recent years, we discover that OECD and non-OECD countries have had amazingly different patterns of electricity consumption growth since 2001.
OECD electricity consumption has been close to flat, especially since 2008. Even before 2008, its electricity consumption was not growing rapidly.
The proposal now is to increase the use of electricity in OECD countries. Electricity will be used to a greater extent for fueling vehicles and heating homes. It will also to be used more for local manufacturing, especially for batteries and semiconductor chips. I wonder how OECD countries will be able to ramp up electricity production sufficiently to cover both current uses of electricity and planned new uses, if past electricity production has been essentially flat.
Figure 7 shows that coal’s share of electricity production has been falling for OECD countries, especially since 2008. “Other” has been rising, but only enough to keep overall production flat. Other is comprised of renewables, including wind and solar, plus electricity from oil and from burning of trash. The latter categories are small.
The pattern of recent energy production for non-OECD countries is very different:
Figure 8 shows that non-OECD countries have been rapidly ramping up electricity production from coal. Other major sources of fuel are natural gas and electricity produced by hydroelectric dams. All these energy sources are relatively non-complex. Electricity from locally produced coal, locally produced natural gas, and hydroelectric generation all tend to be quite inexpensive. With these inexpensive sources of electricity, non-OECD countries have been able to dominate the world’s heavy industry and much of its manufacturing.
In fact, if we look at the local production of fuels generally used to produce electricity (that is, all fuels except oil), we can see a pattern emerge.
With respect to extraction of fuels often associated with electricity, production has been closed to flat, even with “renewables” (wind, solar, geothermal, and wood chips) included. Coal production is down. The decline in coal production is likely a big part of the lack of growth in OECD’s electricity supply. Electricity from locally produced coal has historically been very inexpensive, bringing the average price of electricity down.
A very different pattern emerges when the production of fuels used to generate electricity for non-OECD countries is viewed. Note that the same scale has been used on both Figures 9 and 10. Thus, in 2001, the production of these fuels was about equal for OECD and non-OECD countries. Production of these fuels has about doubled since 2001 for non-OECD countries, while OECD production has remained close to flat.
Figure 10. Energy production of fuels often used for electricity production for non-OECD countries, based on data from BP’s 2022 Statistical Review of World Energy.
One item of interest on Figure 10 is coal production for non-OECD countries, shown in blue at the bottom. It has been barely increasing since 2011. This is part of what is now tightening world coal supplies. I am doubtful that spiking coal prices will add very much to long-term coal production because truly local supplies are becoming depleted, even in non-OECD countries. The spiking prices are much more likely to lead to recession, debt defaults, lower commodity prices, and lower coal supply.
[11] I am afraid that the world economy has hit complexity limits as well as energy production limits.
The world economy seems likely to collapse over a period of years. In the near term, the result may look like a bad recession, or it may look like war, or possibly both. So far, the economies using fuels that are not very complex for electricity (locally produced coal and natural gas, plus hydroelectric generation) seem to be doing better than others. But the overall world economy is stressed by inadequate cheap-to-produce local energy supplies.
In physics terms, the world economy, as well as all of the individual economies within it, are dissipative structures. As such, growth followed by collapse is a usual pattern. At the same time, new versions of dissipative structures can be expected to form, some of which may be better adapted to changing conditions. Thus, approaches for economic growth that seem impossible today may be possible over a longer timeframe.
For example, if climate change opens up access to more coal supplies in very cold areas, the Maximum Power Principle would suggest that some economy will eventually access such deposits. Thus, while we seem to be reaching an end now, over the long-term, self-organizing systems can be expected to find ways to utilize (“dissipate”) any energy supply that can be inexpensively accessed, considering both complexity and direct fuel use.
15 minute cities hahaha https://t.me/downtherabbitholewegofolks/64103
https://duckduckgo.com/?q=15+minute+cities+canada&ia=web
Saves oil — funny how the mob does not look at this and ask .. do ya think this is about running now on oil?
But if all you can do is walk, then having everything close together makes a whole lot of sense.
I am doubtful that it is possible to break big cities up into little pieces, unless they are warring pieces. All of these little pieces will need supply lines and someone to take away the trash. The range of jobs available in such a small area will be very limited. It would be hard to find people to staff the services found in such a little area. There couldn’t be my manufacturing, for example. Or road repair.
Of course, it wasn’t all that long ago that many children in the rural US were educated in one-room schools. They didn’t necessarily have indoor plumbing, I have been told. I have also been told by a high school teacher that the quality of the education these children received varied a whole lot.
Two things wrong with the elites idea of the 15 minute city. They view the city as being divided into discrete regions. What about people who live on the edges of a zone? What they really need is limit to travel distance of each person. Second, a city offers specialization. Can not support that if it is divided into small none specialized small towns.
Municipal services will they be all broken and repeated across each small region? Zero economy of scale? Will the sewer replace folks be allowed to drive the truck across the whole city?
The art museum will each “community/collective/soviet” have its own museum? Natural history museum? Specialty schools for music, art, acting?
Ed,
Trash needs to be removed, the further from the center, the greater the costs. Probably limits this physical size of the city.

You used Henry Howard, the Earl of Surrey , as your example.
Actually I have studied family trees of the nobles for quite a while and while Henry met a violent end, his descendants are doing quite well.

Henry Howard’s son Thomas became the Duke of Norfolk, a title which still exists and is held by a direct descendant of Henry Howard.
The infamous dukes of Sutherland, famous for the Scottish clearances and still holding vast land in that region, are descended from Henry Howard’s granddaughter.
In fact half of the land in Britain is held by less than1% of the pop,

with the Crown being the largest landowner.
30% of the land owned by the aristocracy and the landed gentry, 18% by corporations, 17% by the oligarchs, bankers, etc and 17% unaccounted for (most likely held by relatives of the aristocracy and landed gentry).
Sorry, land ownership is eternal.

These are good comments you made, Eddy.
I especially like the last two of your three comments. These are about nuclear. You point out references that say that there is not enough uranium to scale up to the level needed to replace other types of generation. These are
https://arxiv.org/abs/1106.3617
The End of Cheap Uranium by Michael Dittmar (2011)
Dittmar predicts a peak in global uranium mining in 2015. (I would want to check this out, however, before using this reference.) This amount will not be sufficient to fuel the existing and planned nuclear power plants during the next 10-20 years.
The other is https://phys.org/news/2011-05-nuclear-power-world-energy.html
Why nuclear power will never supply the world’s energy needs
It quotes an academic paper saying that uranium production will never scale up to the high level needed to replace other sources of electricity. According to this reports:
I know that a lot of people are hoping for retrocessing old fuel, but this is expensive, requiring input from around the world. I should look around for more references on this.
Production of electricity from nuclear power plants has been declining since 2001 in OECD countries and increasing in non-OECD countries.Citizens in OECD countries are afraid of it. They demand very expensive reactors that supposedly prevent all harm. Non-OECD countries have been building some reactors, anyhow.
I found uranium production by year on the World Nuclear Association site. Peak uranium production seems to have occurred in 2016. The amount being produced now seems to be less than the amount being used.

I believe that France, Germany and the US all used to extract some uranium, but that is gone. Canada’s production is way down.

Pfizer lied, 20 million and counting died
Secret reports from the Governments of the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, the UK and most of Europe have raised alarm bells as they confirm that approximately 20 million deaths have been recorded resulting in 2 million excess deaths since Pfizer lied enabling the mass roll-out of the Covid-19 injections.
Sadly, further reports quietly published by the UK Government also confirm that mortality rates are lowest among the unvaccinated in every single age group.
This, therefore, proves that Pfizer’s lies have caused millions to die and the Covd-19 injections are by far the largest contributing factor to the millions of excess deaths seen across the ‘Five Eyes’ and most of Europe
https://expose-news.com/2023/02/05/depopulation-covid-vaccination-plan-all-along
Government Reports & Pfizer Documents prove COVID Vaccination is causing Depopulation & we now have evidence it was the plan all along
If we told you 20 million people had died across just the ‘FIve Eyes’ & 26 countries across Europe over the past two years resulting in the most excess deaths seen in half a decade wouldn’t you at least be a little bit curious to find out why?
You might be quick to blame Covid-19, but we can assure you this is not the case.
What if we then told you more excess deaths were actually recorded across the USA, the UK, Canada, Australia and New Zealand in 2021 & 2022 following several mass rollouts of the Covid-19 injections than were recorded at the height of the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020?
Would that not pique your interest to find out why?
Because we’re not just talking about a slight increase. We’re talking about increases of thousands of per cent in excess deaths.
For instance. official Government reports prove that Australia suffered a shocking 1,640% increase in excess deaths in just 39 weeks throughout 2022 compared to 53 weeks throughout 2020.
While New Zealand suffered a shocking 3,404% increase in excess deaths in 49 weeks throughout 2022 compared to 53 weeks throughout 2020.
Are you still not interested?
https://expose-news.com/2023/02/05/depopulation-covid-vaccination-plan-all-along/
Talk about total BS with stats. Essentially there is an increase in deaths (wonder why?) but it is about 20% extra people dying. When it comes to a population level it is about a 0.1% increase. Not overly damaging to population levels. Maybe that will increase, maybe not. Wait and see.
I find Expose-News about as reliable as the UK MSM.
More useful sources do exist.

Gail talked about an imminent financial crisis in her previous article. Schiff argues that the USA economy is now headed for complete collapse, as there is no way to avoid hyper-inflation. Interest rates high enough would not be affordable. In fact, the FED relies on QE to solve all crisis, and that just worsens inflation. So they are out of ‘tricks’ to keep it ticking. Lenders are going to bail out, and the USA economy that relies on debt and imports will completely collapse. SHTF time for USA?
Excerpts: …. The problem is the debt in the economy, which is much greater now than it was then [2007], and the underlying structure of the U.S economy, which is even more screwed up now than it was then. The trade deficits are larger today than they were during that time frame, which means we have an even more dysfunctional economy, because we have we rely on Imports.
We can’t produce the things that we consume. The economy is incapable of doing that, and so we rely on the rest of the world to supply us with the goods that we can’t produce. But we have no way of paying for those goods, so the external liabilities continue to grow. The debt that America owes the world continues to grow, and at some point the lenders are not going to want to continue, because they are going to realize that they’re not going to get paid – not in real money.
And finally inflation has reared its head in a very visible way in the last couple years. And this is evidence that it’s about to fall apart, because inflation is really what breaks this whole deal. Because once the dollar starts losing value then people want to get rid of their dollars, and we need people to hold their dollars if we want to keep importing. But if we can’t import, you know, a whole economy that’s based on borrowing money to buy imports is going to collapse.
…. I think by the end of this year the inflation numbers are going to moving, are going to be moving decisively higher again, and it’s going to be obvious that the FED is nowhere near its goal of two percent inflation. It’s going to need much more substantial hikes than what has happened so far….
And so they’re going to think well, what do you know, seven percent, eight percent, but this economy was not even built for five percent. The phony economy that the FED built needs zero percent – that’s basically the highest we can afford. We have a 31.5 trillion dollar national debt, and you know they’re raising the debt ceiling, and it’s going to go a lot higher. But if rates stay at five percent for a few years it’s going to cost more than a trillion dollars just to pay the interest on that national debt, which there’s no way the government’s going to get that money. It’s gonna have to borrow that, which means the budget deficits could go to three trillion a year. Well how are they going to fund those?
The FED’s gonna have to go back to quantitative easing – and that’s the risk of hyperinflation. Because the FED really can’t fight this inflation with an interest rate that is high enough to do the trick but that we can actually afford. And more importantly, there’s no way to really fight inflation without cooperation from the government. The government needs to cut spending but they’re not doing that, they’re increasing spending. In fact as the economy weakens they’re going to increase spending even more. In fact what their motivation is, when consumers are struggling with high prices, they want to spend more money, they want to give people stimulus checks so they can afford to pay the higher prices – which is just more inflation.
Inflation is a huge problem, and the hidden truth is that inflation has been the federal reserve’s Ace in the Hole. I mean that’s how they’ve gotten us out of every problem – inflation. Quantitative easing is a euphemism for inflation, that’s all it is. So the way the Federal Reserve got us out of the financial crisis, the way the Federal Reserve got us out of the covid crisis, was by creating inflation. The fed’s solution to every problem is inflation. Well now the problem is inflation. So that’s the Box, because how do you solve the problem of inflation if inflation is your only solution to every problem? ….
> The US dollar collapse is coming w/Peter Schiff, Alexander Mercouris and Glenn Diesen
Hyperinflation really isn’t a risk as long as the USD can keep its status as the global reserve currency. Hence things like ramping up agitation against Russia and pipeline destruction that challenge that status will continue to happen. QE or QT is really downstream of that.
As far as I know Schiff is an Austrian Economics proponent. Their theory of money is entirely wrong even if they tend to be good at accruing money and playing the markets.
The FED’s “goal” of 2% inflation is a ruse to make you think that inflation occurs on its own. It doesn’t. It occurs because of the debt based fractional reserve fiat system it has created since its deception and inception in 1913.
It is like the MIC needs a boogeyman to justify its ravenous wealth extraction from the citizens. Russia, the terrorists, and other “threats to our democracy” are used to justify the orgy of spending on the MIC, just the FED’s phony mandates of employment and preventing inflation justify its existence.
Inflation and unemployment are self correcting without the need for a central bank. In fact the central banks provokes huge disruptions in employment and inflation
Poor Peter Schiff. Never has there been an economist who understands the financial fundamentals of this pervasive fraud better, yet never has one been as chumped when it comes to putting his wisdom into practice.
WW3 will cover the collapse of the debt ponzi (and everything) and trifling matters like the injections nicely. Its an ancient formula. Fundamental.

What can not be blamed on WW3? Its basically a necessity considering. They have their bunkers in NZ and Australia which have been bought and are in the process of renovation to the new owners liking.
I think that inflation occurs because of diminishing returns, in many ways. Fossil fuel extraction requires more effort. The materials to make renewables and batteries get more expensive to make. Citizens are still being supplied with lots of currency to buy goods and services, so the price goes up.
I will have to listen to the video when I get a chance.
The problem with gold/silver is transaction costs. Also, it needs to be shipped and it is easy to steal compared to a checking account. Once stolen, impossible to trace for all practical purposes, melt it for example.

This european winter has been so warm, it did not challenge anyone very much. Global warming is a thing. It will be followed by a hot summer with high excess mortality and reduced crops. I myself live in Russia at 57N, in a place where last century all of agriculture was haying and dairy. Now many, including myself, grow one or more of about ten crops, and even double croppings is sometimes possible. At around 51N it is the norm now, but what kills me was seeing the first steppe winery a few months ago.
Some winters are really cold … and the GWers don’t say – damn it’s cold this winter… I guess GW is bullshit.
Then some winters are warmer — and the GWers say — damn it rained in January — I guess I was right about GW
The last really cold winter in Europe was 1980.
Here in the middle of Missouri, in February, the ground hasn’t frozen yet. Winter has been very mild, except for 2 subzero days.

Merck’s oral antiviral pill for COVID-19, molnupiravir — marketed under the name Lagevrio — may be fueling the development of new and potentially deadly variants of COVID-19, according to the authors of a new preprint study.
“It’s not a surprise that molnupiravir could cause [the] escape of mutant virus strains or substrains into the population,” said Dr. Harvey Risch. “Its main function is to get the virus to mutate faster.”

Typical oblivious westerner. You mean financial capitalism is still pumping money into each others bank accounts with zero added value in fact as a drain on the real economy? Yes!
You mean government stats paint a robust picture when the truth is the exact opposite? Yes.
You mean that if the media, mainstream or alternative are not reporting on (or not allowed to, or do but it’s removed) all of the death and destruction going on around the world then it isn’t happening? Yes.
Meanwhile for the RoW there is power failures (for the few who have electricity), lack of potable water (in the US too), starvation, bombing, drone attacks, sanctions on a third of the planet with the slow painful deaths of hundreds of thousands of children, Palestinians being murdered, a half dozen countries with basic infrastructure destroyed, CIA messing with another half dozen countries with lots of blood and death, …….
Oh.. yeah…and there is the exponential destruction of the biosphere but we don’t worry so much about that here.

Me being from a landowning family, whether you like or not, I can say this definitely.
Today’s winners will be mostly fine with peak oil and a reduced state of being.
Sure, it will suck without a lot of modern comforts and medicine.
However, a lifestyle like 1950s would be still feasible for today’s winners, with constant income from their land and their security kept by their retainers who are their childhood friends, kins, etc.
Lu Xun, the father of Chinese modern literature, wrote a short story called ‘hometown’, which is autobiographical. Lu Xun, son of a local landowner, befriends a peasant’s son named Runtou when Lu was a child. After Lu becomes famous in Peiping (which is what it was called back then), Lu returns home as a celebrity. He sees Runtou, who call him “Master” and does not hide the servile way Runtou was accustomed to. As Lu returns to Peiping, he sees his nephews playing with Runtou’s son, satisfied that the circle of dependence and mastery will continue to the next generation. Unfortunately what happened to Runtou’s son after the Communist takeover is not known, but chances are his descendants are still tending the Lu Xun memorial built in the author’s hometown.
The master-tenant relationship is basically forever and will survive peak oil, making sure today’s winners will live comfortably long after the last auto engine stops operating.
I would love to see a research group devoted to what can we do with existing technology after oil. Not the subject how to continue full BAU. Not BAULite. Rather what is actually possible. Water wheels, small wind turbines maybe for water pumping and grain mills. Telegraphs and radios, sailing ships.
John Jacob Astor wrote in the 1890s about using solar thermal to make compressed air to power road grading equipment still viable. His house is still standing. It could be the headquarters of Air Power Inc. For all your municipal road maintenance needs.
How do we do elevators? Wood powered?
A great deal is possible. But collapse has to happen first.
Yes. Out with the old, in with the new.
“Landowners are eternal.”
No one is really moved by bold assertions or by anecdotes from novels.

I could imagine a sword straight up your ‘privy parts’.
Elite replacement is one of the key drivers of history.
Just ask the Romanovs if you think landowners are eternal, Kulm.

Don’t lose you head, Kulm!
“Ahhhh, I am eternal you know! Eternal! Ahhhh!”
Hilarious material kulm! Outrageously funny.
I’m sure the guys with the biggest sticks is going to take orders from the land owners post BAU.

https://www.amerika.org/politics/paul-ehrlich-is-a-free-rider-on-the-ideas-of-thomas-malthus/
This is somewhat of a right wing site, but it mentions Gail so I will copy the portion pertaining to her.
>Some of the Neo-Malthusians get about as close to being honest brokers as our environmental movement offers on the internet. Gail Tverberg brings as capable a toolbox of analytical abilities as you would ever need to prove a logical idea true. Anyone who has ever prepped for an actuarial exam would respect her bona fides.
>The Peak Oil Thesis was her Teutoburg Forest. This is the sad fate of an honest and intelligent scientist proven wrong. Gail can either deploy a new thesis or find other remunerative employment. Then there is the sad fate of the dishonest scientist. The defender of the Undead Alternative Hypothesis.
>They can fail to reject The Null Hypothesis about a million times, yet dishonest hack-environmentalists such as Paul Ehrlich will never stop. Not only will they never stop, they will also monetize their Undead Alternative Hypothesis. Ehrlich has failed to reject The Null Hypothesis in favor of Malthusian extinction in a manner reminiscent of The Space Shuttle Challenger failing to reach Close-Earth Orbit.
(snip)
Where Gail the Actuary went honestly and sincerely wrong was to assume without loss of generality that Malthusian Economics would apply to all scarce resources in temporary depletion, by any population of consumers. She and her fellow Peak Oil bloggers tacitly admitted that The Arc of Truth bent in a different direction. Thus, I bear no hostility towards an honest scientist proven wrong.
>What makes Paul Ehrlich so obnoxious and diabolical involves two factors.
> He reduces Malthus to the very symbol of ignorance by deliberately misconstruing and overextending the limits of The Malthusian Model. Ehrlich knows what Malthus had neither the training nor the opportunity to learn. He has hundreds of years of sophisticated data that he deliberately ignores. Soylent Ehrlich deliberately ignores this data because loud and scary headlines make the career of the disingenuous environmentalist. He is an Elmer Gantry of postmodern atheism.
He has been proven wrong repeatedly and lacks the fundamental intellectual integrity of Gail Tverberg. Prove him wrong anew, and he will double down on his science like a saloon Black-Jack player on a losing drunk. His thesis never changes. The facts frequently rebut his assertions. Yet if he still gets paid to say it, he will ignore inconvenient facts that would make a man of integrity change his beliefs.
I think the author of this piece, who is not the owner of the blog, definitely read some of Gail’s writings, and did praise for her intellectual integrity. She is not trying to sell anything, which is what makes her different from all these doomer salespeople.
amazing hack job though. He never even bothers to show where ehrlich (or Malthus) is wrong. Maybe he believes we can go to the singularity and get fed and heated, too?
He nails it … yes he was stupid but if you can’t trust the ministry of health…
https://t.me/downtherabbitholewegofolks/64106
That’s the problem with trust.
Trust nothing and you’ll be better off
This is a sort of strange post. I must have made an impression on the author for him to keep mentioning me.
He might be a stalker…
Gail had better be careful that her knickers do not go missing off her washing line! Or it will be peak knickers for her!
Complexity, when it comes to complexity, war is the peak. I would expect to see complexity step down in the military first. An example may be lack of air defense for contiguous 48 states, lack of air defense for EU. Lack of functioning deploy-able tanks. Inability to recruit people for the army. Is the open border a way to get soldiers? Educating people who do not speak English to fly F-22s is one heck of a lot of complexity.
CIA director says war will be decided by September. RAND says get out, get out now. Not signs of well functioning complex organization.
As luck may have it, for missiles those air defenses are not existent right now. That is simplicity itself. The US uses two oceans, propaganda, and financial manipulation to advance its interests.
Good points!
Could the reunification of the Russian Orthodox Church with the Rome be the solution for the cold Russia problem of implosion?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Union_of_Uzhhorod
Since Russia is the last Christian nation lets move the pope to Moscow.
“As Kyiv was losing its political, cultural, and economical significance due to the Mongol invasion, Metropolitan Maximus moved to Vladimir in 1299; his successor, Metropolitan Peter moved the residence to Moscow in 1325.
Russian Orthodox monks defended the Trinity monastery against Polish troops during the Time of Troubles. Painting by Sergey Miloradovich.
In 1439, at the Council of Florence, some Orthodox hierarchs from Byzantium as well as Metropolitan Isidore, who represented the Russian Church, signed a union with the Roman Church, whereby the Eastern Church would recognise the primacy of the Pope.”
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Russian_Orthodox_Church
The pope was that creepy looking German guy who just died. His replacement by the deep state/ deep church with a woke pope does not count. Italy will be a Muslim Caliphate soon enough.
I have a Muslim friend and he is already divroced. The implosion is merciless…
If you move to areas with the rising scarcity, your religion will not save you from the atomization of the society, which severely affects mainly marriages.
That is why monks and nuns, or single people living alone, but sharing the values of “somebody who died for others” (i.e. Jesus Christ), are better prepared for the the implosion.
Do not be confused by the influx of some people who still live on the state subsidies etc. that allow them to keep their religion in the imploding societies that become rather atheist.
It will be interesting to see if family/religion oriented people will stay that way in high tax states that require working all the time to pay the tax.
That’s fascinating, MG. I never thought about marriage and family formation as a type of complexity before. I’m seeing lots of trouble locally in that regard.
It’s true that in the past certain children were destined not to procreate. Later-born sons who would be dedicated to the church or to the military, the spinster daughter who’d be assigned the task of taking care of her elders.
The Catholic Church is quite strong in warm areas:
90% Catholic, very church-going tropical area here. Mass attendance is going down and divorce rate is shooting up. They were a very closely-knit Catholic community of about 30000 in the middle of a mostly Buddhist/Socialist environment. The advent of Internet and smartphones has been drastically changing these people’s lives.
As an early “peakoiler” I moved here 15 years ago in part seeking this tight social fabric wherein you either fit or you get kicked out, as I was told right from the start. Obviously, after 15 years, I fit in. I was also looking for abundance of food and fresh water locally for obvious reasons, and “seduced” by the sight of gas flaring on oil rigs on the horizon at night. The former is still true and will be for a while, but I have witnessed right in front of my eyes the dying of a significant oil field within a dozen years.
Since people here are familiar with this topic: they ramped up production by any means, screwed up the reservoir and then decline rate went brutal. Eventually they blamed it on the CEO of the national oil company for being corrupted, and threw him in jail.
It would be more of a geopolitical move aimed at securing the Western border. But yes, I think there will be easy pickings all over the Balkans, into Hungary and the Middle East.
I know that this idea lets everybody speechless, but if we have implosion, also in the area of the religion, what else than reunification can help sustain the system?
I agree with you. It will be an eurasian bloc, with some rules for trading whatever fossil fuels are left, and reunification will happen really fast. But local political systems will vary.
eurasian bloc yes.
Humanity Will Reach Its Peak Within Just Decades, Trend Shows
And the impending singularity may spell our end even sooner.
BY TIM NEWCOMBPUBLISHED: FEB 3, 2023 Popular Mechanics
United Nations projections point to the world population peaking at roughly 10.4 billion people before 2100.
Not all researchers agree on the population peak, with one Gates Foundation-funded study suggesting population is nearing peak now.
Can AI reaching singularity have a declining result on human population?
Based on the U.N.’s projections, our world population could grow to around 8.5 billion in 2030 and up to 9.7 billion in 2050. Then, the peak happens at 10.4 billion during the 2080s, and the decline starts around 2100. Hell, that forecast may even be a bit on the high side, according to a University of Washington study funded by the Gates Foundation.
The point is, with the world’s population passing 8 billion late last year, the global population peak is drawing rapidly closer. But so, too, is singularity—the concept of artificial intelligence exceeding beyond human control and rapidly transforming society. (One trend shows we’ll reach singularity in just 7 years.) Will singularity throw an entirely different wrinkle into the population peak?
To start, the global population is growing at its slowest rate since 1950. Blame dropping fertility rates. “Today,” the U.N. says, “two-thirds of the global population lives in a country or area where lifetime fertility is below 2.1 births per woman, roughly the level required for zero growth in the long run, for a population with low mortality.”
Suppose the study overlooked the correlation between population and fossil fuel consumption, along with it’s economic growth relationship.
Not to worry…they are working on that too

You think the purpose of Institution X or Practice Y is the stated purpose, when the purpose is to break down energy gradients faster than would have otherwise occurred.
Of course a gargantuan energy sink isn’t too big to eliminate.. it gets eliminated when there’s less energy to chuck into its maw than it takes for it to operate. We see that happening right now: fewer workers, restricted hours, fewer interventions, more delays.. the stuff I assume MG’s link reports.

Elders want life extension technology. They need test subjects to find out what works and which practitioners have talent. Medical technologies actually dont take a lot of resources just money. Money they got. The serfs get a taste of the technology paid for with medicaid, a taste of the champagne . Elders get test subjects and their precious data. Its actually a win win from a certain perspective. All partys consent so I see no ethical problems although its not my cup of tea The only teensy problem is the cash is printed and the more they spend the closer we come to whatever solution they have for the debt ponzi.

Why I Love Oil
Solitaire TownsendContributor
https://www.forbes.com/sites/solitairetownsend/2023/02/02/why-i-love-oil/?sh=4d14d9765903
Around two hundred million years ago a tiny, 2-millimeter long sea critter, its antennae as long as its body, fell to the ancient ocean floor. At the time, life on the continent – there was only one, the great Pangaea – was dominated by dinosaurs, who basked in a tropical climate. Plankton thrived in the world’s warm oceans, before falling when they’d wriggled their last.
Along with billions of other ancient marine organisms, that tiny invertebrate settled miles below the surface of the water. Other debris slowly crushed those zillions of tiny bodies and turned them into a waxy material known as kerogen. As that kerogen was buried deeper over eons, it came under immense heat and pressure. The forces became literally tectonic when first Africa then India broke away from Pangaea, the very bones of the Earth exerting unimaginable pressure on the seabed.
Through the magic of chemistry, that heat and pressure transformed the waxy ex-organisms into a thick, dense and magical substance – oil.
Oil dances with entropy. Rather than moving from order to disorder, as that second law of thermodynamics dictates, the dark mass of dead life became neat chains of carbon and hydrogen linked up to form the hydrocarbon molecules that comprise crude. These molecules are packed with the energy of the Sun itself, transported via plankton and plants, and transmuted by the immense power of our planet
Sitting on my desk as I write this, I have a tiny glass barrel of the stuff, about the size of a coffee cup. I keep it there, black liquid sloshing up the sides, to remind myself how completely wonderful, and irreplaceable, this stuff is.
As an extraordinarily energy-dense material oil is essential for making artificial mechanical heart valves, for anaesthetics and MRI machines. Kerosene powers spacecraft – it is our ticket to the heavens.
Arguably, oil should be more valuable than gold – it’s certainly rarer. The universe is brimming with precious metals: one giant asteroid contains enough gold and other metals to make everyone on Earth a multibillionaire; and on some planets, it literally rains diamonds. But fossil fuels like oil are the product of life itself – which means they are unique, as far as we know, to our special life-supporting planet.
And…we burn it.
My tiny barrel is, excuse the pun, a drop in the ocean. Across the world we suck up a mind-boggling 90 million giant barrels of the stuff every day. Oil companies have located giant reservoirs of it where ancient seas were located, and use huge drills to drag it to the Earth’s surface. From the North Sea to Nigeria, the US to the UAE, these seams of liquid gold have become the basis of one of the world’s most powerful, profitable industries.
…..No one hates combustion engines – machines of unthinkable waste – more than I. But I love the oil that powers them, and can’t bare the horrific, and destructive, waste of it. And now you’ve read my love letter to that sticky black deep-sea treasure, I hope that maybe you do too.

some highlights from the report that are worth reading …
https://www.energyandcapital.com/articles/big-oil-relents-peak-oil-is-upon-us/111495
The carbon budget is running out. Despite the marked increase in government ambitions, CO2 emissions have increased every year since the Paris COP in 2015 (bar 2020). The longer the delay in taking decisive action to reduce emissions on a sustained basis, the greater are the likely resulting economic and social costs.
Government support for the energy transition has increased in a number of countries, including the passing of the Inflation Reduction Act in the US. But the scale of the decarbonziation challenge suggests greater support is required globally, including policies to facilitate quicker permitting and approval of low-carbon energy and infrastructure.
The disruption to global energy supplies and associated energy shortages caused by the Russian invasion of Ukraine increases the importance attached to addressing all three elements of the energy trilemma: security, affordability, and sustainability.
The war has long-lasting effects on the global energy system. The heightened focus on energy security increases demand for domestically produced renewables and other non-fossil fuels, helping to accelerate the energy transition.
The global power system decarbonizes, led by the increasing dominance of wind and solar power. Wind and solar account for all or most of the growth in power generation, aided by continuing cost competitiveness and an increasing ability to high proportions of these variable power resources into power systems. The growth in wind and solar requires a significant acceleration in the financing and building of new capacity.
Of course, BP’s analysis comes with a caveat …
Although the company recognizes the reality that the world will rely less and less on fossil fuels going forward, management is still going to hustle the shit out of oil and gas, because that’s their bread and butter.
LOL
Energy Demand will Increase 58% Over the Next 25 Years

Once the promise of hope in Haiti, textile park is now laying off thousands of workers BY JACQUELINE CHARLES UPDATED FEBRUARY 02, 2023 7:54 PM

The Korean textile company that for a decade anchored the United States’ largest investment in a post-earthquake Haiti is downsizing — and eliminating thousands of jobs. Sae-A Trading Co., which operates as S&H Global inside the Caracol Industrial Park in northeast Haiti, informed its partners and others this week that it will be closing one factory, which employs approximately 1,000 workers, and instituting “widespread” layoffs across its five remaining factories in northeast Haiti. The reductions will take the number of employees from 7,000 to 3,500. It is the latest blow to Haiti’s apparel manufacturing which, while known for its T-shirts, also produces U.S.-bound hospital garments, leggings and other clothing for customers like Walmart. Since December 2021, the country has lost 11,000 apparel jobs, with more expected in the coming months, says a member of the local Association of Haiti Industries that monitors the sector.
This is not news to me…I live here and see the rapid change …it doesn’t take long.
Increasing numbers of Cuban and Haitian migrants have attempted the risky Florida Straits crossing in recent months to illegally enter the Keys Island chain and other parts of the state as inflation soars and economic conditions deteriorate in their home countries.
Stand on the shore with a high powered rifle and shoot them
Lack of jobs does create a problem in Haiti!
Re Collapse.. ROF… when I was in Haiti post quake….it was very dangerous to venture out after dark… particularly on foot.
Electricity was not widely available so the streets were dark – and I was told that gangs were in play mugging anyone that dared walk the streets.
One photographer came in just after dark — he had a local driver and they were headed back to the city as dusk fell… and came across two dead children on the road… they asked some folks what had happened – the kids had been shot dead for stealing food. The photographer was somewhat shaken in retelling the story to me … this was a guy who’d worked in The Ghan and Iraq…
Haiti still had food … some health care… some electricity .. some petrol… some police and government… it was not Mad Max….

”Media: Zelensky to dismiss Defense Minister Reznikov, intelligence chief seen as likely successor

An interesting comment on MOA about the Ukraine war .
“The end of this war will depend on which economy can survive. Ukraine’s economy is dead. The U.S. economy is a rump of the Arsenal of Democracy days. U.S. GDP is 89% Government and Services. Services being LuLu Lemon pantyhose (made offshore), hamburger and Pizza joints, Smartphone (Dumbphone) time wasters, Netflix, and $3 Trillion in “imputed Rent”, i.e., rent that is never paid, but conjured out of a bureaucrat’s butt.
The evidence of the reality of the Western World’s true economies is found in the antiquated weapons they are sending to Ukraine, to assist the Russian slaughter of Uke Nazis. Factories do not exist to scale up the necessary weapons to fight Russia in the Ukraine, and Western Powers refuse to send in more modern weapons for fear of Russian capture.
If it wasn’t for the stupidity and utter contempt for reason that the U.S. Imperial City has for eventual Nuclear extinguishment of human life on earth, it would be laughable to watch the U.S. being shot with a ball of their own excrement.
Too bad there are no honest brokers, no diplomats, no reason and all the Western bridges have been burned down by the West.
And now we have “Bring in the Clowns” as Boris plays with his Johnson in public again.”
It’s always darkest before the dawn of national socialism.
Things are not going well in Ukraine!
The elders are extremely cunning of course they knew that renewables would never be the solution that is why nuclear is coming on a smaller scale the elders are master chess players and are thinking way ahead of us
The elders are just as self obsessed as the rest of us and therefore will make all the same stupid choices we all do. They too will die as will we all. MAke the most of your time here, it is running out.

At the beginning of this video (for me, at least) is Bill Gates talking about the huge amount of transmission lines we will need for all of the renewables. This is a major obstacle to building all of these renewables.
He did say that the renewables will still need balancing with another fuel. Also, we will have way too much renewable energy at certain times (spring and fall, weekends, especially) and not enough other in winter.
All these people know renewable energy is nonsense…
The only reason they participate in the charade is because they know that the mob must have hope in the future…
And if they are not presented with a narrative that involves a magic bullet that weans us off fossil fuels (they are MORE-ONS but they can understand depletion…)… they will fall into despair…
When barnyard and circus animals are in despair they don’t produce… and the farmer will fall into despair…
Thus they play along with the nonsense…
Just thinking about the dialogue with Sasha involving Yeadon and others… this reinforces my theory of barnyard and circus animals — the circus animals can perform some really complicated tricks… but end of the day … they are MORE-ONS.
One can see why the Elders treat us as they do … like pets… like milking-cows… humans are just one big mass of mindless zombies. They deserve to be farmed.. to be used… they serve no other purpose.

I’m sure all OFW’ers want all the sordid details
WHO provides a great map where you can see visually:
–doses per 100 people
–which countries use which vax
In the left-hand dropdown, switch from “Cases” to “Vaccinations” and then you can select under that between “total doses administered per 100 people” and “vaccine in use”.
I am surprised to see that only 100 doses per 100 people in the USA, so half the population with 2 doses. I suppose that matches the recently reported 666 million doses for ~333 million USA population.
forgot the link:
https://covid19.who.int/
That map is so info full. It shows who is under US thumb. Interesting Eastern Europe is largely free.
Excuse me, typo – it should say 200 doses per 100 people in the USA from the map above. But that means fewer unvaccinated.
I was surprised the the maps don’t seem to have an option of showing doses per 100,000 people. The table gives a value.
I’m confused by your comment – you can show “doses per 100 people”, so if you want to know doses per 100,000 people, just mentally change the units 1000x.
* Select “Vaccination”
* Select in the next dropdown “Total doses administered per 100 people”
I didn’t look back to see what units were given. The adjustment is trivial.
Sasha has no idea what the pearls are that FE is casting in front of her… so she’s eating them!
Dun.ce. This is the best mankind has to offer hahaha… Clown Show… DelusiSTANIS… re-TARDS…
And they wonder why the Elders are trying to kill them off.
Yes but there’s 400 years of oil under NC and that’s before we even consider the hidden free energy technology… I’m tired of the alternate media… feels like almost no one gets it. We could be wrong about this energy contraction thing but what concerns me is how tiny the energy doom echo chambers are. I thought more people would be here but instead they go off thinking there are solutions and it’s all a conspiracy to immiserate the common man.
I’ve asked why if there is so much easy oil remaining … we steam oil out of sand.
Nobody answers.
We are right
Gail, one thing Ukraine has demonstrated is Russia’s high level of autarky. What do you think of the scenario where various countries do a Sri Lanka-style collapse, but others chug along more or less unaffected for a while longer.
Assuming it can continue to fend off the demented Western hordes, Russia looks to have what it needs to go on for another century++.
Have you ever tried to add the effects of money printing into your energy models? I thought we were done in 2008, but crank up the printing presses and bingo another 12 years of BAU, which seems to go against the laws of physics on the surface.
I for one would sleep very lightly if I were Russia. The whole world, including its “friends” China and India will eventually turn on her when the natural resources and energy get tight, really tight, say in twenty years.
China reminds me of the venomous/bacterial toxic bite of the Komodo dragon. At first the water buffalo is annoyed that the reptile would nip it in the heel a few times, but the reptile just patiently waits for the toxin and sepsis to set in the next day or two.
I was surprised at Paul Craig Roberts when he criticized Putin for attempting to make only a limited initial strike against UKR anticipating that UKR would come to its senses and negotiate, But as Jim Morrison wrote in “The End,”
“All the children are insane”
I am now thinking PCR may have been correct after all when he argued that Putin should have launched an all out attack to totally flatten UKR from the outset to deal NATO a baseball bat-in-the-face lesson on why they had better stop F*cking with Russia. Instead, by his limited response, the US and NATO now perceive Russia as weak, which has prolonged the conflict. In the end, which strategy will prove to have been more costly?
I can see why Russia will indeed have to have two parallel economies, a civilian one and one of eternal military vigilance. My “understanding” is that after the collapse of the USSR in 1991, the oligarchs raped the country, bought up all the former govt controlled assets for next to nothing. A huge “sucking sound “ of wealth extraction, and this is still sorting itself out. And Russia is facing a demographic drought in its birth rate as it bleeds out from the drip-drip loss of its military age men, although at nowhere near the rate of the Ukrainians, who reportedly are getting killed or maimed for life at a ratio of anywhere from 4 to 1 to as high as 8:1.
I agree that Russia needs to implement an all out strategy for autarky, self sufficiency, and not supplying the rest of the world with the rope that will be used to hang her. Arguably Russia needs the oil revenue to implement this strategy, but what is the balance?
Meanwhile, another internet outage in Italy. Another test run for control? Just a flick of the internet and cell phone kill switches is all it will take to throw everyone and everything into chaos, including the financial system. Much more insidious and harder to track the perpetrator than a high altitude nuclear detonated EMP.
>> I am now thinking PCR may have been correct after all when he argued that Putin should have launched an all out attack to totally flatten UKR from the outset to deal NATO a baseball bat-in-the-face lesson on why they had better stop F*cking with Russia.
Russia needed to go in light and try to negotiate if they were to keep allies on-sides. As a result of this approach, seemingly all nations but western ones have tacitly condoned Russia. It didn’t make sense militarily to go in light, but the biggest risk to Russia was economic, not military in nature (barring all-out NATO involvement).
I am afraid all countries, even Russia, are dependent on other countries. I am afraid Russia would break into pieces as well.
Russia is like the USA, (and most other nations) held together by threads of transport–powered in turn by cheap surplus energies
When those energies are no longer available, it will secede into smaller and smaller fiefdoms.
We are told that machines will rule the humans:

The communists in the Soviet bloc ridiculed and prosecuted the folk religion and promoted the progress and the higher power of nature:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Most_SNP
But the communist regime collapsed. As the protestantism efforts in the past (and the present).
It all boils down to the humanity and the human death.
When I was a child, I visited the Franciscan monastery in the neighbouring village: it was full of paintings of the saints, more like a toyshop. But it was the Franciscans, who mastered the counter-reformation here: they replaced the abstract intellectual ideas with folk simplifications, high art with simplified copies, down to the main human problem of death:
St. Francis with a skull (the original Italian source on the left, the painting in the monastery on the right):
http://www.barok.me/KAT/S2/430.htm
All human cravings for the progress in this world end with the death. The religion advocating the resurrection of the dead is simply unbeatable. The abstract ideas of the celestial life are all rooted in the truth about the human weakness.
“Francis of Assisi himself had an almost pathological hatred of money, the physical object of money. One story told about him concerns a young friar who had joined the order, and who had picked up a coin that someone had attempted to give the Franciscans, and tried to do this in Francis of Assisi’s presence.
The young monk picked up the coin not because he wanted to keep it, but because he wanted to give it back to the individual and say that they were not allowed to have this. Francis of Assisi was so incensed that one of his followers had touched money, that he ordered the friar to take the coin and to place it in the middle of a very large dung heap, using only his teeth to do so.”

If you read closely, one of Watt or Kingston or Latypova has mentioned they hypothesis that since so much history is propagandized perhaps MKingHubbert was also planted disifo agent. As LTG was published in ’71 the suggestion is that the AGW/CC narrative was seeded even earlier. Removal from gold std seems to be the kickoff.
Hubbert made his US peak oil forecast in 1956. He was reprimanded by Shell for preducting a peak in production in the lower 48 states.

Merck’s oral antiviral pill for COVID-19, molnupiravir — marketed under the name Lagevrio — may be fueling the development of new and potentially deadly variants of COVID-19, according to the authors of a new preprint study. “It’s not a surprise that molnupiravir could cause [the] escape of mutant virus strains or substrains into the population,” said Dr. Harvey Risch. “Its main function is to get the virus to mutate faster.”

It makes me lean to Eddy’s point of view this is a white part of the globe kill operation. Eddy does not add the “white part”.
China did not use mRNA, Russia did not use mRNA, most of Africa did not use mRNA. I would love to see the use rate by nation. For example Indonesia, Brazil, Egypt, Mexico, Cuba, ….
Maybe a more exact way to put it “a global kill operation of the people of nations under US control”.
What did India do?
The big question still remains why?
It starts out, “If you go to the store, and you buy a product, and you buy the same product again later, you wouldn’t expect the product to be a 1,000 times different.” You would expect some reasonable quality control. Good point.

“At Least 1 Billion Dead or Disabled from CV19 Bioweapon – Dr. Betsy Eads”
Excerpt: “CV19 bioweapon vax truth warrior Dr. Betsy Eads has been warning of a “Tsunami of ‘vaccine’ deaths coming in the next two years.” The number of people dying and getting permanent disabilities is increasing. That is no surprise with 600 million CV19 injections being administered in America alone. There have been about 13 billion CV19 injections given worldwide. The estimation of dead and permanently disabled is stunning and criminal. Dr. Eads explains, “In my personal opinion that a billion people will either die or be permanently disabled. A new “Expose” article shows 5,162% increase in deaths (in Australia) from this bioweapon shot since 2020.”

Has anyone else seen this?
“Josh Stirling, a top insurance research analyst, has found a 7% aggregate mortality increase for each COVID vaccine dose received, meaning a “fully vaccinated” individual who took 5 doses increased their risk of [premature] death by 35%. Stirling used CDC data and compared the vaccination status, ranked by the number of doses across regions in the US, and compared that to the amount of increase or decrease in mortality 2022 versus 2021. He explained that if vaccines actually reduced all-cause mortality, then the data from “highly vaccinated” states would show “lower levels of mortality” in those areas. Instead, data is showing the opposite. Stirling previously noted that overall, all-cause mortality in the US rose in 2022 from 2021 by about 15%.”

“light in sky” In seconds before Iran earthquake. Earthquake followed by drone attack.

Banned, what do you make of this?
Well we dont know if the vid is real. It was a unusual coincidence that a earthquake preceded the drone attack. The drone attack was not really intended to do great damage. The drones had been identified as a type used by Israel earlier. This was known. Iran runs drone netting on all its mil buildings so the charges go off prematurely. This is known. The drone attack could simply have been to make sure the seismic weapon was identified as part of the warning/attack. The attack was rather ineffective i think its purpouse might have been to bring attention to the earthquake. .
I fully expect new technology weapon escalation. WE know what is off limits. Nuclear chemical and biological. What we dont know is not off limits. Its clear to me the west is desperate. If new technology weapons exist I think they will be used in what seems to be commitment to war. War war war. War with Russia. War with China. Madmen.
That seems to be the trend. ” Ohh so unfortunate. All your tanks melted. Of course we had nothing to do with a earthquake/tank melt. What are you a conspiracy theorist? Act of god.”
There were a lot of melted cars around the World Trade Center after the take-down event. Should work on tanks.
Let’s put ‘melted’ in single quotes.
fair enough
Interesting thoughts, thank you. The possibility of using one weapon to create massive destruction (instead of the expense of many). There is quite a bit to be read on “Tectonic” weapons. Some believed the massive earthquake in Haiti (about a dozen yrs ago?) was the result of this kind of experimentation.

“I care not what puppet is placed on the throne of England to rule the Empire, … The man that controls Britain’s money supply controls the British Empire. And I control the money supply.” Nathan Rothschild https://twitter.com/KirbySommers/status/1567945974537936897
“Once a nation parts with the control of its currency and credit, it matters not who makes the nation’s laws. … Until the control of the issue of currency and credit is restored to government and recognized as its most sacred responsibility, all talk of the sovereignty of parliament and of democracy is idle and futile.” — Mackenzie King, Canadian Prime Minister 1935-1948.
“I am a most unhappy man. I have unwittingly ruined my country. A great industrial nation is controlled by its system of credit. Our system of credit is concentrated. The growth of the nation, therefore, and all our activities are in the hands of a few men. We have come to be one of the worst ruled, one of the most completely controlled and dominated Governments in the civilized world no longer a Government by free opinion, no longer a Government by conviction and the vote of the majority, but a Government by the opinion and duress of a small group of dominant men.” – Woodrow Wilson, after signing the Federal Reserve into existence
“Some of the biggest men in the United States, in the field of commerce and manufacture, are afraid of somebody, are afraid of something. They know that there is a power somewhere so organized, so subtle, so watchful, so interlocked, so complete, so pervasive that they had better not speak above their breath when they speak in condemnation of it.” ― Woodrow Wilson
“The conscious and intelligent manipulation of the organized habits and opinions of the masses is an important element in democratic society. Those who manipulate this unseen mechanism of society constitute an invisible government which is the true ruling power of our country. …We are governed, our minds are molded, our tastes formed, our ideas suggested, largely by men we have never heard of.” – Edward Bernays – Propaganda

You must have written this one in your full Nazi regalia. Were your hands shaking like the Adolf actor in the “Downfall” clip?
jeez notabilia
i never thought of that one
downfall—-great dubbing opportunity there
i love the thought of that—go for it.
The victors don’t only write history books…
Fast got threatened with a ban by Kirsch’s people for suggesting (a few times) that he skip the 1M offers to people who wont debate and instead hire a PI to find Tiffany Dover…
Wonder what they’ll say about this:

IDEA!
Print out 500,000 stickers and make them available online for cost + shipping to anyone who wants to affix these to the inside of toilet stalls… changing cubicles… basically anywhere where you are almost never going to be caught.
Let’s suggest some slogans :
Covid Vaccines
Not Safe Not Effective
Covid Vaccines
Are Deadly
You want to turn the tide — preaching to the converted on SS is useless… debating people who won’t debate … is useless.
None of the SS big influencers will do this … because ________________
Keep in mind Substack exists to keep anti vaxxers in one place so they can be monitored… giving this platform to vent… keeps them from unhinging… makes them feel they will win.
Think about that
https://stevekirsch.substack.com/p/a-worldwide-call-for-data-transparency/comments
The sticker idea is not a bad one actually. Get them printed up to look official with links and proper numbers but have real info such as
Cov id Vac cines can cause myocarditis which is irreversable. If you are suffering from chest pain ,etc, etc………. call …………….
Stickers is a fine idea and it points out reality is now manufactured. We are reduced to stickers in changing rooms. The corralling is near complete Noam Chomsky can retire.
Also hidden cameras to see how the MORE-ONS react when they read the stickers.
Priceless!
Just lost another family member, aggressive pancreatic cancer and stroke from blood clot.
Had to put on hold, visiting the aunt with cancer and 11 blood clots.
Will be back out of pocket again, depending upon what arrangements happen.
@EthicalSkeptic
We know someone with pancreatic cancer. Fully Rat Juiced – of course!
When do the hospitals implode>
Bah, everyone walks around with at least 11 blood clots in their bodies. Some who are really lucky get them to grow several feet in length. 🤓
Maybe some clever chef can create blood clot sausages.
I’m gonna ask the the local mortuary to save the clots for me .. I’ll fry them up … then send them to norm … norm what’s your address?
Not enough – we need someone to drop in every pro match played… for tennis we need winners to be declared not because they complete the games… one dies before it finishes…
Now that.. would be very very interesting watching how the MORE-ONS react…
Would they get angry? I suspect not — they’d just get scared and block it out as if this was normal

Djokovic Wins The Austrailian Open
“Djokovic Declared Champion By Default After All The Other Players Die Of Heart Attacks”

Lol!
This article is from Sept. 6, 2022. A person would almost wonder whether it is from “The Onion.”
The article says,
“According to sources, the controversial determination was made after the only two remaining contestants, Matteo Berrettini and Casper Ruud, both clutched their chests in their second match and fell over.”
Later it says,
“Unfortunately, Djokovic was not allowed in the award ceremony to receive his trophy due to his unvaccinated status.”
Hi Gail, you are exactly right that it’s like The Onion. Babylon Bee is also a humor website. I hadnt seen this entry that Rodster linked to, which made me laugh. But confusing if you dont notice its The Bee.
We need a 10,000% increase – at least — before the MORE-ONS wake up

Nations??? Nations without sovereignty, nations without armies, nations without currencies, nations without freedom.
Ocean life is seeding the clouds above it, and the modelers didn’t know. Those naughty little plankton, who’d have thunk it?
The science is settled except we only just realized that the benzene and toluene gas over the vast Southern Ocean were not man-made pollutants after all, but were made by industrious phytoplankton. For the first time someone went and measured the benzene and toluene in the water and discovered that instead of being a sink for human pollutants in the air above, the ocean was the source.
This matters because these two gases increased the amount of organic aerosols by, wait for it, between 8% and up to 80% in bursts. And all that extra aerosol matters, of course, because aerosols seed clouds, which change the weather.

We keep finding out more about how the climate really works.
I’m thinking … excess heat… escapes into outer space…
Let’s try an experiment … heat up a stone … then smother it in 50 think woollen blankets..
Wait a couple of hours… then take the stone out.. and check to see if it is still hot.

F789… YA! Feel the SCHAD
Sounds like immune systems aren’t working well.
I feel great… I wonder if it’s because I am unvaxxed.
norm how do you feel?
It’s all relative … did I mention our friend who met up with us in Perth is 4x Rat Juiced … confessed that she feels lethargic… brain fogged… and often has mild flu symptoms that come and go…
She feels great compared to someone who’s stroked out after the Rat Juice.
norm if you feel any of those symptoms I recommend Bolivian Blow … it will perk your carcass up

Montana, St Louis, off the coast of the Carolinas is it possible this one “Chinese” balloon can be in all three places in the same day? Shot down over the Atlantic ocean about 4:30pm East coast time. Really? Is it deep fake or is it real?
Is any of this real? Is it a US balloon? Chinese, Russian, NATO?
I assume it will be impossible to retrieve it from the Atlantic regardless of the hundreds of US radar and optical imaging that were watching and can pin point its location. No need to share info with the enemy (the US citizens).
What I wonder is the following:
we know that US and UK intelligence services are helping Ukraine army through satellites in order to guide military activity against Russians.
They can see everything thanks to modern satellites.
And, on the contrary, we have to believe that Chinese are so backward that they need aerostat baloons to spy Americans, with a technology in style with the best chapters of Julius Verne’s ‘Around the World in Eighty Days’.
Come on…
This story is an excuse to make some theatre.
A balloon has entered the party.
That’s what happens when you run out of tanks.
Lol!

The demiurge is using a bobber to fish for human fears in holographic skies.
The elites know what it is, but obviously can’t say it and can’t do anything about it,….. it’s 5 th dimensional after all.
One thing for sure,….. it ain’t Chinese
It’s can be hilarious and frightening to see what form of bait will be tried next.. fear, desire and social duty.. something along those lines.. the light at the end of the tunnel.. the biolumiscent in the dark depths of the soul. Knowledge of emotional intelligence, the archetypes and the hero with a thousand faces is helpful. Demiurge and trickster messengers give glmpses of the future with layers of meaning at a hidden cost. I found it i advisable to accept them as parasites preying on bad elements of my character and make changes in my own life while using humor or fiction to express the messages otherwise the cave dwellers will punish you. You can get more bees with honey than vinegar. Its relatively easy to make good money and relationships if you can ride the wave of synchronicity. .02
👍
“the biolumiscent in the dark depths of the soul”
Excellent.
The CIA was spying on Israel at the time of the 1956 Suez crisis. The photographs, taken from a height of 70,000 ft. (25 km, 15 miles), are perfectly clear.
Clearly this is a decoy.
This is great fun — a lesson in how to offend MORE-ONS and ensure you have no MORE-ON friends…
Re scarcity of resources…. it’s a finite planet … obviously resources eventually become very scarce… especially when you have 8 Billion MORE-ONS pillaging through them as fast as possible. The best example of utter f789ing human stupidity is when the founders of a company take it public and ring the bell on Wall Street – smiling happy idiots who have worked out how to pillage the resources and make many millions… that they will blow on private jets and other activities that burn through our finite planet And the mob worships these people and wants to emulate them How stupid is that
