for the time being. Until we take that power from them, they will continue until it's far too late for any of us.

BILLIONS are going to die in the next 25 years because the projections are all BS meant to pacify us and convince us there's still time that there is not.

Insects and plankton are in extinction free-fall...that is the base of the food chain and we are not going to survive this in any recognizable form.

100 years from now when the blood is still wet in whatever kind of Thunderdome hell we fall into, people will look back on us with hate and contempt for doing less than nothing. We are guilty anh history will remember it.

There will be no peaceful transfer power from the current power brokers to stewards of the Earth. The club will lose its grip only when civilization goes belly up. It will collapse into chaos. No one will come out the better for it.
