“A growing resistance, being provoked by attempts to impose the “Paris Climate Accord’s” grim regime of taxes, fees, and shutdowns, is opening the door wider for a new paradigm of progress directly opposed to that regime.”
A Note To Readers
Our quotation above is from a LaRouche PAC statement on the riots and resistance to the “climate change taxes.” “What is really happening here, Schiller Institute President Helga Zepp-LaRouche said yesterday, is the economic and cultural breakdown of an order.”
It is the old order that has brought the state and the nation to the point that more than $4 trillion is needed to be invested before 2025 just to repair existing infrastructure. Of course that is impossible within the paradigm of bank bailouts for speculators and an ideology held by too many that the state, the government, should have little or no role in such work. Well, that question is addressed in our Feature this week on what monetary system will facilitate, and what one will make impossible, real economic development led by infrastructure building.
In This Week’s Report
After a week of rain and snow, and a forecast that El Nino actually may make an appearance this year, some of the forecasters are a little giddy. Well let them enjoy the show. We shall just report on what some are saying. All that is in the first section below.
Those who detest Governor Brown, and there are many of you who do, will enjoy the next section, “And the Never Ending Water Wars In California– What Is New?” All the environmentalist organizations are accusing him of treason to the cause as he works with the Trump administration trying to save his precious tunnels under the Delta.
I include one article on the National Climate Assessment of the federal government released two weeks ago, which has been dissed by President Trump. While the assessment and the article are alarmist, the article, at least, does address some aspects of water infrastructure.
That section is followed by the LaRouche PAC article mentioned above.
The Feature this week addresses how to organize the financial system to facilitate real economic development and includes two articles (actually one is a nine minute video). The video is titled, “Who Benefits from the Chaos of the Global Financial System?” That is followed by what is the pre-eulogy for GM and GE.
Two more sections complete this week’s report: Infrastructure and The Real Economy. Several articles there you will find of interest.
