The Secret History of the World

I watched "10,000 BC" today. It is a movie from 2008 that didn't really get glowing reviews if I remember correctly. The movie is a presentation of the "secret history" of the world, which is really pretty interesting because the "secret history" seems to be the "official history" of many influential people and organizations. It's the history you didn't learn in school.

A quick recap if you haven't seen the movie: some raiders abduct several people from a remote primitive settlement for slavery. (It's very much like the beginning of "Conan the Barbarian" (1982), because Conan the Barbarian is telling the same story.) The raiders take their new slaves to someplace that looks Egyptian and puts them to work building pyramids. The raiders are brutal, and they are really slaves, too--they're the drones of the secret overlords of the pyramid construction project who demand god-like status from the slave population. Eventually, though, the good guys show up and save the slaves and kill the evil king.

The most interesting line in the movie is around the 1hr:04min mark where a slave boy asks who these overlord people are. He gets a response, "Some people say they came from the stars. Some people say they came from an island that sank beneath the waves (Atlantis)".

There are dozens of movies and TV shows based on this theme. The director and writer of "10,000 BC" was also a creator of the "Stargate" series, which is really just the same story.

The secret history is really about the pre-historic origin of man, and the subsequent fall out. Either the Pyramid came from space, or from Atlantis. There was a struggle with actual humans, and it is still going on today.

Freedom Convoy

 There's a lot of live streams of the Canadian Trucker Convoy that reached Ottawa today. It's pretty impressive. A whole lot of people are there.

Unfortunately, both the US and Canadian governments are totally fake potemkin/rump parliaments. They're pretend governments.

There's an oligarchy that runs people like Joe Biden or Justin Trudeau. We have no idea who the oligarchs even are, though, so it's close to impossible to "fight" it. I think the only real option is just to flow around these joke governments. Just declare them over and start again.

Beefs with Russia

The "great game" is a huge waste of money and resources, that is, the conflict between the corrupt oligarchs of the world and their henchmen in national capitals is an enormous waste. The USA has pissed away endless resources on useless wars for decades. Currently, the US has an almost inexplicable beef with Russia over Ukraine, which is a country that produces tractors and food stuff and has about the same GDP as 20 counties in Ohio.

I think the apparent conflict with Russia over Ukraine is theater, and nothing substantial is going to happen because of it. I think it's mainly the useless trashbucket Biden administration trying to whip up patriotic fervor over a war that no sane person in the US wants.

The "neoliberals" have pushed aggressive policy against Russia for decades. They are a group of parasite thieves. They really aren't capable to a productive, or cooperative arrangement with anyone.

I don't doubt that the people who run each of the world's nations are a similar set of criminals, but the criminals in DC and NYC are currently the worst ones on the planet.

I hope, eventually, humanity can do better, but I'm getting more and more skeptical everyday. People really suck, en masse. A lot of the valid criticisms of the powers that be also apply to the mass of people.

DO NOT ENGAGE WITH MONKE!

 https://hbg100.com/2022/01/24/witness-at-scene-of-cdc-lab-monkeys-crash-has-developed-symptoms/

A truck carrying 100 monkeys crashed in Danville, PA. A woman who was on the scene developed a cough and pink-eye like symptoms. Stories like this pop up from time to time and generally nothing happens as a result, but on the heels of the overblown covid nonsense of the past two years, it probably makes sense to follow along.

Control Fraud: The American Way

A woman who lives in northern California owns a Tesla X ($100K+) and had Tesla install solar panels on her roof. The roof subsequently leaked and damaged her ceiling to the point where it collapsed in one of the rooms of her house.

She's still wrangling with the company and her insurance company to try to get the repairs done, which costs "tens of thousands of dollars" in dummy land. Tesla didn't bend over backward to solve her problem to maintain its reputation, or merely to help out a customer. In fact, they didn't do a thing. That company is known for horrible customer service and for complete dysfunction when it comes to repairing issues with their products.

In spite of the horror stories involving that company, people are lining up to buy their products, and the company is one of the largest companies by market cap.

The USA is pretty broken overall. I think that woman's scenario is the way of the future. Corrupt, incompetent companies lording over incompetent boobs in a spiral of fraud. That's really the "neoliberal" system in a nutshell. People are too weak and incompetent to solve their own problems, so they turn to companies with big advertising budgets and access to wall street funny money to pretend to solve them. The companies are the mirror image of the people who they scam.

Back in the savings and loan crisis days, Bill Black coined the term "control fraud" to describe the way banks were looted by their owners and management. The whole country is like that right now. Across the board lack of competence breeds corruption. The people as a whole don't realize they're being robbed systematically.

Only Vaxxed Truckers Crossing the US Borders

 The supply chain disruptions are going to get very real over the next weeks. Less food, less lumber, etc... is going to cross into the US, and less US trade will go to Canaduh and Mexico. The federal government is a giant pile of garbage.

Lumber prices are probably going through the roof, even worse than last year! It's hard to imagine. I did a bathroom renovation last year. Four sheets of plywood and some 2x4s set me back $500. This year it will probably be more like $1500 for the same paltry pile of stuff.

All this annoyance will be caused by a fucking cold. I am amazed people are as stupid as they turned out to be--they're way dumber overall than I ever imagined. It's time to pay the piper for decades of being asleep and letting the government and corporations crawl into every nook and cranny of our lives.

Unmanaged "Systems"

The western world is dominated by hierarchical pyramid scheme systems. Corporations and governments generally have a pyramid type structure. The financial system is a pyramid structure.

These entities are hive-like. They tend to exist in an entirely man-made world. Corporations are really paper straw-man, golem entities. They have a corporeal existence in buildings and other infrastructure. The people who promote the corporate way constantly focus on "efficiency", but if you've ever worked in corporate world, you see endless inefficiency. The corporate entity itself is hugely parasitic, and it's an extension of the government and financial system, which are 100% parasitic entities. "Efficiency" is really some kind of strange code-word in the context of the corporate landscape.

The hive-like, insectoid aspect of the corporate world is a widespread observation, and is depicted in many movies and TV shows. For example, in the "new" Battlestar Galactica, the cylons are shown to have a weird living, insect-like infrastructure. For example the resurrection ships look insect like.

The "pyramid" system is an alien import into this world. The irony of it, is it's dominant, but it's parasitic and super wasteful.

A forest is a contrasting "system", really a non-system. A forest has no top down organizational pattern, but is still a unified whole. Each creature and plant living in the forest is simultaneously independent, and a contributor to the unified whole. It's an example of pure efficiency and no overhead/parasitism.

It's a good question why the pyramid/parasite system is so dominant in the human world.

Corporate America and the Government: No Value Added

Starbuck's announced they aren't going to mandate vaccines or tests for employees. That's a good thing. Instead, they're forcing employees to wear N95 masks. Why?

Because the thousands of managers and HR people in that outfit need to "do something". How much busywork is created in the USA by people who don't have anything better to do, but who feel guilty for not squandering their life "doing something" for their dumb corporate organization.

Most day-to-day business activity is a total waste of time. My wife and I know a woman who has two "full time" managerial jobs like some 80s sitcom scenario. She's able to juggle two high-paid fulltime jobs because most office/professional work involves dicking around on a computer all day.

The tech world is getting dumber and dumber every year and squandering more people's time on ritualistic managerial activity in spite of a perpetual concern over "efficiency".

Humanity would have been 1000x better off if absolutely nothing had been "done" about "covid", the same way nothing was traditionally done about colds and flu. It's abundantly clear that biologists don't really know much about disease, evolution, or other fundamental aspects of the natural world. They're way more in the dark than physicists are about the origins of the universe and the physics people keep adjusting their models every few decades and throwing out old assumptions... it's pretty likely they don't really know anything either.

The governments of the world pretended to "manage" the covaids, but almost everything they did was a failure and had no positive effect at all.

The government and corporate entities offer the illusion of competence and infallibility to the mass of people, but they're really not capable of rising to the occasion. Individuals would be much better off on their own.

The Shitshow Starts for Real This Week

 Canaduhs vaccine passport for truckers goes into effect today, apparently. That's going to be a total clusterfuck.

Truckers crossing the border need to be vaxxed. Currently, 30% of truckers are--or something like that.

The US imports canadian lumber, canada imports steel and other items from the US. That's going to grind to a hault. Fuck all these government stooges and corporate scumbag grifters associated with this scam.

The "authority" trash will try to raise the ire of the retarded public for the unvaccinated, but hopefully enough people have two brain cells to realize they should be angry at the trash in the capital cities and the degenerate oligarchs pulling the strings.

UPDATE: The Canadian government relaxed the vaccine restrictions somewhat so it's probably not going to be a total clusterfuck right away.

It's hard to believe anyone is putting up with this bullshit from these retarded governments. The vaccines don't work. Even retarded Israel said that 4 doses of the concoction don't work against the "omicron", which is a fucking cold!

Ted Kaczynski: Right on the Money

 I assumed the unabomber's manifesto was dumb gobbledygook--it's actually extremely well reasoned, IMO, and right on the money. If you listen to the video, then compare to what's going on today, you'll see that TK had a good description for the mechanism involved. Pretty good info.

Infallible "The Science" and True Believers

The public has been sold that "experts" are infallible, and "the science" is too. Richard Feynman famously said, though, that "Science is the belief in the ignorance of experts." If you took a shitload of physics classes in college, you learned that all along the way--people believed one thing, then a new set of experimental data showed the belief was incorrect, that is the model wasn't accurate.

The public, though, demands that science be the equivalent of religious dogma, that is, it should provide absolute certainty about what's good and bad. The reality of ambiguity and error in models about the world is swept under the rug by con men like Anthony Fauci or Bill Gates--a software salesman from the 90s. The defects in understanding of the general public, plus their own pride and ego are the soil from which creatures like Fauci spring.

The two groups--the public and the con men--are eerily similar. The public's "belief", that is political alignment with a "cause" springs from their own ego and pride. They can't admit they don't know things or are making a best guess that might be wrong. People like Fauci or Gates basically mirror that psychological defect and assume the role of pope in the science religion... though at the same time cloak themselves in an aura of carefully constructed plausible deniability and legal protection from liability for their bad advice. 

Through the past couple of years when "the science" is proven wrong, experts shrug and fall back on the idea that "science" is a best-effort-best-guess approximation. However, when people oppose the oligarch's science-based schemes, they are labeled as dangerous heretics by the media and by con men creatures like Fauci. "The Science" is as malleable and interpretable as some obscure biblical passage.

We're currently witnessing some members of the public come to their senses over covid and the vaccines. It's hard to tell exact percentages. It's large enough, though, that media outlets are starting to change the narrative about the whole thing, e.g. pointing out that masks don't work, or that the vaccines are extremely limited in their benefits, if they have any benefit at all.

There's still a bunch of people though that are hard-core committed to the narrative from six months or a year ago. They're thrilled, for example, that they can dose up their children with something that doesn't even work, and that children do not need at all.

Thanks to social media, we now have the novel opportunity to see how these people react when they experience bad consequences from the vaccines personally, or when their children are injured, e.g. with myocarditis, which can cause a life-long scarring of the heart muscle and life long impairment.

People demand infallible science, and when their "god" fails, they don't question all their prior assumptions, they act out perfect "belief". They can't admit they were wrong the same way some corporate ghoul won't. They're two perfect peas in a sociopath pod. The proud/egotistical mark, and the proud/egotistical con-man.

The "Then Everything Changed" Delusion

Is there any such thing as a "game changer"?

For example, would fusion power plants be a game changer? I don't think so.

Ironically, I think dependence on technology moves humanity ever closer to catastrophic failure with each advance. Fusion really epitomizes that. A functioning fusion power plant will only be possible with an entire high tech economy and high tech supply chain in place. New exotic, highly processed materials will be essential for the power plants, for example. Fabrication of parts will require high tech machines that require constant maintenance and their own exotic supply chains. Those power plants will be on the tippy top of the house of cards of civilization.

The top of the house of cards keeps demanding more resources and human energy, so much so that it corrodes the layers lower down. For example, the push for "electric everything", especially a transportation grid seems like it's so greedy that all competition for electric cars, for example, will possibly be eliminated by government fiat, and that's really pretty weird.

Supreme Court Rules Against Joe Joe Retardo

Joe and the other lackeys in the government did their best to sell vaccines by enlisting employers to coerce employees to take stuff that doesn't work, but the Supreme Court ruled against that. It's good they did, but it's too little too late.

Many corporations will still coerce employees to take the "vaccines" anyway even though they don't even seem to work. There will be numerous future attempts to extort tax payers for more scams, and to try to coerce people to take medications against their will. Various government scumbags are working to pass a bill to send taxpayer funded masks and test kits to everyone in the USA--cha-ching for those test companies.

This whole episode is probably the straw that broke the camel's back for the current version of the USA. It's too stupid to continue. Corporate america is too stupid to continue. Millions of people are just opting out of it, now, and trying to find their own path forward. I see it all over the place.

It will take quite a while for this whole thing to unfold.

Life Adapts. Tech doesn't.

 Apparently some Tesla models use heat pumps for climate control. A heat pump has low efficiency in very cold weather, so there's no cabin heat in some Teslas in northern climates. Electric cars and a lot of other similar "green" tech was developed by and for people who live in southern California.

In general, most technological gizmos have a hard time in cold climates. Even plain old technology like diesel engines and hydraulic systems does too.

Life thrives in cold climates though, of course. Humans adapt pretty easily to the cold. People live almost everywhere on Earth. Animals do too, of course. Some mammals and birds thrive in extremely harsh conditions.

It's really pretty interesting that the powers that be are pushing everyone into "electric" this or that thing. It's a chance for new monopolies and top down control via grid systems. Those systems suck and are limited. The overall system seems more brittle and weaker than ever.

Life is a DIY Project

Two potential futures are shimmering into place.

If you depend on corporations and institutions for your income, and to make sense of the world for you, your life is going to suck ass. You'll be a slave whose every move is micromanaged by some insane, incompetent retards and all your energy and money goes to fund the lifestyle of parasites. The price of that easy life is your soul and your mental well being.

You can also go your own way and make your own path. The government completely de-legitimized itself over the past two years. Most other institutions did too. This world is a new frontier.

Already Idiocracy

The movie Idiocracy is prescient, but I think it gets the cause all wrong--it blames the poor underclass for over-breeding.

 

The real idiocracy is happening already, but it's a top down rot. There's a highrise building in San Francisco, for example, that's leaning over because it was built on clay. It epitomizes the corruption and incompetence of the so called "elite".

The Supreme Court "heard arguments" about retard President Joe-Joe's mandates to take the failed covid vaccine. They lacked the most basic knowledge about the vaccines and the scamdemic. They were like a pack of hysterical, frightened old women.

We basically have a clique of extremely entitled glad-handing, incompetent scumbags running every institution in the USA, really all across the western world. Many of these people are highly credentialed, but they haven't ever produced or built any real thing. They've faced no real tests in life. Their plans are stupid. Their goals are insane. They can't tell the difference between fantasy and natural reality.

Actual Science and the Scam Science of Covid

 Researchers did not figure out what caused the bird disease this past summer (2021) that was supposedly killing off myriad songbirds. They also have no idea what's causing the "New Brunswick" disease. Even though they have a bunch of tissue samples, and specimens killed by these diseases they can't draw any conclusions. They don't know if the cause of the deaths and injuries is environmental, a virus, or something else.

In the hollywood Covid world, though, fake scientists like Anthony Fauci know everything all the time about covid. They know the "personality" of the myriad "variants" from the number of proteins and their mutations.

The Mass of People Can't Listen to Actual Advice

If you've been paying attention to what the authorities are saying about covid, you probably realize they have no clue what they are doing. Of course they constantly act like they know everything. I'm wondering if they really know how the immune system works--I think they don't. They're dangerous fools.

I'm starting to wonder if the widespread vaccination of people and animals over the decades is akin to over-use of antibiotics in hospitals, which created MRSA. I am also starting to wonder if intervention in human immune systems spills over into the animal world and vice versa. It seems likely, for example, that chronic wasting disease in deer came from sheep-brain-created rabies vaccines, now it's possible that disease crept into the human population in New Brunswick.

The people actually demand this authoritative stance by their "leadership" and that's because they are retarded and can't function with uncertainty. They demand a  black and white choice, especially when stressed. (I even wrote a post on that years ago) The people demand an amusement park world.

Intelligent, functional people don't need leadership or a criminal grifter government. Dummies do. The government is for the dummies. The dumb rules of states like California and New York are for those dummies. The government is really the dummy industry.

You Can't Do Anything You Want

I read a rage-bait article this morning about men competing in women's swimming. Some men claim they are "women" then compete in women's sports and kick the ass of the actual women. How is it possible that masses of people are completely insane about this particular topic?

There's a coalition of historical "outsiders" that's basically taken over the western world, so the power structure is currently inverted. The power structure, by the way, always sucked and always will suck. Anyway, the current fraudulent claim to legitimacy by the current set of dirtbags in charge is protection of minority rights.

Therefore, there's a coalition of minority groups that has infiltrated and controls a lot of the former power structure's institutions, like ivy league schools, corporations and the government. They're as insane, controlling and inbred as the previous power structure.

Their particular view of the world just doesn't square up very well with the majority of people, by default. It's apparently a coalition of gays, some jews, some women, and various aggrieved non-"white" people. Their ideology is a mish-mash of claims about equality and protecting minority rights. How long can this current thing last? It's really not that old.

Here's a good question to ponder for each of us to ponder: do we have an intrinsic nature? Could you do literally anything? For me, the answer is clearly "no". I couldn't do an arbitrary job, for example. I could not work as an accountant. If I had to choose to be in prison or be an accountant, I'd choose prison. I despise the bureaucracy life. Could I go lie everyday and sell corporate garbage? Nope. Similarly, there's people who couldn't imagine welding, or working on a dirty car engine in the cold--but I can imagine that, and even do some of that as a hobby/job/avocation now.

We currently have a gay/woman/salesman society, aka a merchant dominated society. Can it last? No. Of course not. It's stupid and it's literally falling apart right now. A really small fraction of people make this whole shitshow actually function--like maybe 20% or less. If they opt out, the entire structure will implode.

Anyway, I think there's some underlying structural pattern to civilizations that emerges from their populations. It's too big for anyone to control or even see, but the larger overall cyclical patterns all look the same. Climb the hill in work boots, fall off the cliff in silk robes.

Truckers and Vaccines

 A significant fraction of truck drivers have not been vaccinated.

The Supreme Court will probably rule that president Shithead's OSHA rules will "stand".

It's not clear to me, though, if laws or regulations that masses of people disagree with, and that fly in the face of Natural Law--really the only real law--actually are enforceable. Presuming they are, the supply chain will collapse very quickly.

I think the plan all along was to really cause complete and total collapse en route to a new authoritarian "electronic gulag" system.

Sic Semper Tyrannis.

The Kingdumb of the US of A?

 The supreme court is now hearing arguments about the legality of the OSHA mandates. This is a huge moment in US history.

If the supreme court upholds the Biden administration, then the USA is over as a republic. It's really just a bureaucratic kingdom with an elected king/president. The constitution doesn't really mean anything. The shitty president and his political cronies can enact any policy they want through some administrative entity like OSHA and compel you to do anything. 

Natural Gas was "Green" Now Nuclear is "Green"

A few years ago, natural gas was being pushed as the low emissions "green" fuel. Now it's being vilified as a greenhouse gas high emissions fuel and nuclear is being pushed as "green".

IT IS ALL LIES!

Natural gas was being shilled and pushed by some billionaire funded groups a few years ago. They pay some "scientists" a few bucks to come up with papers to push their point. Then a few years later, a different set of billionaires pushed a different story the same way.

It's all bullshit.

Nothing is "green" the way they talk about it. Nuclear has the awful spent fuel problem. It is a lot like the mRNA "vaccines" limited upside, potentially unlimited downside. Nuclear power has the potential to contaminate huge regions.

Fossil fuels are probably safer over all, since the earth's self regulating mechanisms would probably eventually restore some balance to the environment even if greenhouse gasses are a real problem and civilization collapses as a result.

Nukes + EVs is just impossibly stupid. Humanity really deserves what it's going to get, unfortunately. 

Are People Dumb Enough to Give A Shit About the January 6 Fiasco?

Donald Trump and the FBI set up a bunch of dumb asses to "storm the capital". The trashbucket media and the blue party still promote the event. IT WAS ALL FAKE! It's hard to understand why people can't see through these phony events.

After 9/11/2001, something like 95% of the foiled terrorist plots were staged by the FBI. Rolling Stone did a big article on it. The very same people, though, can't understand that the "storming the capital" event was exactly the same thing.

Did covid destroy people's brains? Maybe the chronic wasting disease that affects deer spread into the human population too and people are getting progressively dumber.

Sensible Florida Man

It seems like a huge portion of the US population is hysterical retards. Once they were frightened about covid, they lost their minds.

The "surgeon general" of Florida gave a press conference where he urged people to stop getting covid tests all the time. Healthy and/or asymptomatic individuals will no longer get tested in that state. No duh. Even if you're sick, why do you need a test for what's making you sick? There's no difference in the outcome with that knowledge! It's such a massive scam. Some politician scumbags, and scumbags like bill gates own the testing companies.

There are people who are filled with paranoia about a specific disease to such a degree that it controls all their thoughts and activities. Were they always that insane? Yeah. People really suck. In normal life it's not that obvious. You only see evidence of the suckiness of people here and there in random encounters, but this mass hysteria has allowed the suckiness of the mass of people to be on public display all the time.

The institutions that cater to this insanity should be shunned and boycotted by any decent person. The corporate entities participating in the vaccine passport scam, for example, should just be avoided. Nobody should work for the shitty corporations that went along with the government on this either. Fuck 'em. It was a loser choice and exposed them for what they are.

Tarot Card Divination in a Fractal Universe

There's an old superstition about "divination" of the future that involves randomness and random patterns. It's actually pretty interesting how widespread it is. For example, when a person shuffles a deck of tarot cards for a fortune teller he is imparting some randomness into the deck. The idea there, I suppose, is that the man's future is somehow encoded into his own particular field of randomness. The same idea is present in reading of tea leaves, or casting bones to read the future. That is, the "gods" speak through randomness. The same idea is present in the activity of listening to white noise to hear spirit voices.

It's really interesting that people have an instinct to do that kind of thing. It seems fairly unlikely to me that a pattern of the future can be perceived in the present's randomness, but the concept has a certain "logic" to it. It seems equally unlike that people would have an instinct to seek the pattern of the future in randomness if there weren't some truth to it. I mean, why would that notion exist if it was completely baseless.

If the universe has a fractal nature, then maybe it actually could work. Each pattern could potentially reveal some larger harder to see pattern. It's not really clear why or how randomness would help tune that in, but maybe it could.

In for a Penny, In for a Pound

I am wondering how many people will sign up for a booster that were on the fence about the covid vaccines in the first place. It's pretty obvious that the vaccines don't work as advertised. It's also fairly obvious that the government and corporate cartel desire to push them is, well, pretty weird. Some portion of the population loves the whole drama of the covid story and were thrilled to get their third dose, but quite a few people did it reluctantly and perhaps experienced bad side effects.

Will the obvious scam of beady eyed demon midget Fauci saying "you need a booster" to be fully vaccinated work on them? Will they finally stand up for themselves? I guess we'll have to stay tuned to find out.

The saying, "In for a penny, in for a pound" comes to mind.  It encapsulates some specific aspect of human behavior and decision making that applies here. People who already went along with the group mentality will probably continue to do so, even against their own better judgement. They are actually lorded over by some little demon midget and his particular opinions. It's pretty fucked up.

Strawman to Voodoo Doll

 Everyone in the USA has a strawman legal entity that represents them to the government and the legal and financial system. 100 years ago, that strawman was tiny, but it's grown ever since. Computers gave a huge boost to that entity's growth. A rando person today might have as many bank accounts, investment accounts and contractual agreements as a large corporation from 100 years ago.

The strawman has mostly been a bureaucracy-universe puppet of the real world you, but is currently turning into a voodoo doll that can be controlled by corporations and governments. The strawman is the portal for the invasion into the real world by parallel dimension corporate entities. Over the past two years, those entities started to stake out space in real world.

The pharmaceutical cartel claimed jurisdiction over many corporations, even down to shitty restaurants and theaters. You can't go into  their shitty businesses because of their allegiance to the pharmaceutical cartel and it's executives. Your real world self might be denied entry into a restaurant if you didn't pay a tithe to some shitty pharma company.

The government is going to more pro-actively regulate and tax behavior in the not-to-distant future. The plan seems to involve the use of crypto-currency and mega-surveillance. They'll start invading real world space via electronic surveillance and monitoring. States like New York, for example, plan to ban use of firewood for heat--mainly because it can't be taxed and controlled. Some shit corporate entity will probably enforce that through spying via airplane or car.

Ban on Wood Heat

 New York state is going to attempt to ban wood heat for various reasons. Link to a video on the topic. The most blatantly retarded one is it's not "carbon neutral". Wood heat is the epitome of carbon neutral. When you let a log rot in the woods, it is effectively "slow burning" and releasing CO2 back into the atmosphere. This is called "the carbon cycle". It's an extremely well known phenomenon--basic bitch biology class stuff.

Wood stoves can and do pollute when they're warming up and cooling down, but once a fire is really going only steam and CO2 is released. It wouldn't be too difficult to scrub the pollutants.

The governments and their associated cartel business partners want total control of the population. Wood as a source of energy cuts them out of the transactions.

The huge problem in the USA is most people live in cities. 60 million out of 330 million are in rural areas. The most insane, retard politicians rely on their insane, retard city voters to stay in power.
