TIPPING POINT

by Perry Arnett

Continue from PT1

Thus, as world energy sources deplete, the world macro-economy must slow down until it finds that natural balance between the available energy needed to drive it, and the size of the economy that energy will allow to exist. As the economy slows, jobs vanish; as jobs vanish, living standards decline; as living standards decline, everything declines — and then you have the exact OPPOSITE of what most of us here have experienced throughout our lives: NO-growth; decline, diminution, loss, etc.

This hydrocarbon bonanza (coal, oil and natural gas) from say, 1700 to 2030 or so, was a one-shot thing; Nature gave us a Hershey Bar and we ate it! When its gone, its gone. Even though there may be about 1/2 the oil left that there ever was, it will be consumed much faster than the first half was. So much faster, in fact, that for our purpose here, — about all thats left for most of us is the memory.

Most are unaware of this. When most DO become aware we will reach a tipping point: a point where the teeter-totter-of-life changes position from where it was — to where it must go. At that point there will be severe gnashing of teeth and wailing in the streets and all that comes with that. We can either believe it now, or believe it later.

Why are we not told about this from the government, or our employers, or our city councils, etc.? Because no one wants to be the one to cause the tipping point to occur! As long as the reality can be withheld, or muddled, or glossed over, then the tipping point will be delayed; but that only makes the time of awakening worse the longer we go until the tipping-point-of-awareness is reached by the masses, the worse it will be.

When the tipping point occurs, it will be suddenly realized by all, that there will be no more reason to build roads, or fix existing roads, or build university buildings, or put braces on your kids teeth, etc. ALL perceptions of life-in-the-future will change, and most all economic activity that is deemed farther out than say, next week, will cease. Ninety nine year contracts will be a relic of a by-gone era; pensions and annuities will cease; cash will become king; and when that fails hard money will reign. When the public becomes fully aware of all the facts and the relevant conclusions to be derived from those facts, the phrase new paradigm will have true meaning.

Most of us didnt get the opportunity to learn any of this in high school, or to connect all the dots if we did study it, so it comes as a bit of a shock to most when they realize the implications of the principles and the facts. But the principles are founded on good biology, good geology and good economics. The facts are available if any choose to peruse them.

It will be in no ones best interest to factually report the reality of the decline of fossil fuels once it begins in earnest.

  • i realy doubt that the owners of the world,wich in my thought are the banks and the assholes of city of london,would allow something like that to happen.i mean come on guys.these people are bussinesmen and i know that a bussinesman never lets his money/investments and incomes lets run out or something.and if we , the slaves , run out of oil , they will too.there is defenitly something going on wich they , like usualy, wont tell us.
