From our Feature this week: “The Avatar President Arrives: Cookies for Human Props; Pure Hell for the Economy”
A Note To Readers
One more quote from this week’s Feature:
“No one who actually understands the prerequisites for an expanding economy would move to draw down energy supplies. Economic progress requires more energy, never less. Service jobs are not the same as productive jobs. Productive jobs are those that make necessary, physical changes on nature for humans. The source of this wealth, as physical economist Lyndon LaRouche developed, is the unique, God-given creative powers in each individual. That creativity is applied in fields such as industry, mining, advanced manufacturing, and agriculture. It is driven by new scientific breakthroughs that increase the power of that very labor. The proven method for creating the density of such scientific breakthroughs necessary to power us out of the present depression is to undertake mission-oriented crash programs.”
As the article makes clear, the only pathway to a healthy economy, one that not only provides for “The General Welfare of all the people and their posterity,” but one that can mobilize the population for great missions of scientific discovery and developments, is one that is always increasing the production and use of energy, and the “energy-flux density of the energy producing technologies. The Avatar president Joe Biden will not do that, and in fact, just the opposite as his first week in office has already demonstrated. With Biden, it is the shutting down of the real economy, as the bankers of London and Wall Street are demanding. The article begins on page 10.
Also in this week’s report:
Many pages this week on the drought, atmospheric rivers, snow, and all things interesting about the climate and weather.
Next some commentary on the California water management system and supply, in the context of the ongoing drought.
Under the title, “Infrastructure and Energy Policy,” the first item is, “American Society of Civil Engineers’ Report Condemns U.S. ‘Failure to Act’ on Infrastructure.” The second article, which provide just a few paragraphs from it is, “Biden’s Regressive Energy Policy Is A Nasty War On The Poor,”
This week’s report concludes with the Feature, as discussed above.
