The lack of proper investment in, not only maintaining our existing infrastructure, such as water systems, locks and dams, rail corridors, and power systems, but also in promoting the application of higher levels of technology to new more advanced forms of infrastructure, has created the basis for the collapse now being faced.

No longer will purely fictitious monetary activity be financed; the financial curve will be rejoined once again to its natural, functional relationship with those activities of the physical economy which define real economic value--those activities which increase the productive powers of labor of our nation's workforce, the potential population density of our nation's territory, and the increase in technology and power available for our nation's manufacturers and farmers.

Solar, wind, and other "soft" or "free" energy sources have been continually proven inadequate, and moreover, will do nothing more than power the acceleration of monetary collapse, and human deaths, were we to adopt green policies. What we must do instead, is to promote qualitative---not quantitative---increases in power supply, throughout the entire world, now. Therefore, we must, if we wish to survive, shift towards Nuclear power.

World wide unemployment is one thing, but have you ever thought about what the "employed" are actually doing? The two factors combined show a dramatic picture: the level of technology and the skill level of the population can no longer support 6.7 billion people. What is wrong with the current metrics of economy? What is the true economic value of man?

"To come to live in space, as travel between Earth and Mars, and dwelling there betwixt and between, requires that man change his environment to bring the condition of travel and Mars-habitation into conformity with normal human requirements. We must create “artificial environments” as the buffer between normal human requirements, as if on the surface of Earth, and an equivalent effect of human life for man under the conditions of travel and habitation in tolerable, and reachable parts of the Solar System with characteristics outside the standards of Earth's surface."

Where does the standard for Universal American Healthcare come from? Franklin Roosevelt's Hill-Burton standard. The current "health reform" proposal of President Barack Obama comes no where close to the breakthrough healthcare policy that Roosevelt established in the 1940's, and furthermore, Obama's policy if not defeated will kill more people than the Nazi's did with their "health reform".
