Elbow Room
1 Attachment(s)
It's hard to find any elbow room these days, ever notice that? Since the 1970's there has been a 50%+ increase in population from just over 200 million to well over 300 million. More than 100 million more people within the same borders. Over the next 30 years we can expect another 100 million new bodies in America. In fact thanks to illegal immigration we've already outpaced population growth estimates from the 90's.
http://www.census.gov/population/www...e/natproj.html All this probably doesn't mean a whole lot to the old guys who won't be here in twenty years but for those who still have another half century in them it's pretty significant. Of course the demographics are changing, too. Whites will be 53% or so of the population in 2050, most of the slack being taken up by Hispanics and Asians. All in all nearly half the population will be of races different from that of the founders of this nation and therefore will carry with them a certain degree of different cultural values either because they are recent immigrants or through family tradition. That will have a significant impact on the course American culture and politics take. It will be a whole nother world. So where do you go? Look at the attached picture, it's been around a while. Anywhere that isn't lit up like a Christmas tree is nuclear test sites or nuclear silo sites, not very appealing. At first glance Alaska looks like an option but then you have to consider it is right along the invasion path, be it military or just immigration, of a resource-starved China. Of course a huge portion of it is also federal land and you have to weigh how you feel about living in HAARP territory. If half the stories they say about that are true you probably want to be as far away as possible for your own health but it's also a likely military target if allegations about its use in weather modification are true. Without HAARP you still have the oil fields to contend with, if recent history has shown anything it is that they are prime targets for invasion. Northern Canada looks ok, but that's where the boomers hang out and again who wants to be caught in the middle of an exchange between nuclear powers? Keep in mind that map will be increasingly out of date as the years go by, as well. Start filling in more dark spots with bright lights. Actually that pic was taken a decade ago when America's population was reckonned to be 10% smaller than it is today. You just can't find any elbow room like you used to anymore. Looks like the only real options are going to be either space colonization or the open ocean. Either that or pick a patch of dirt and try to hold it. |
Re: Elbow Room
I saw a mainstream magazine article on the problem of human population growth. This will become the biggest issue of our time. Mass die-offs and resource wars are a certainty at this rate. Think of clean water as a resource for example...
As humans who have empathy for each other, in order to reduce needless potential death and suffering, we need to try and prevent this continued population explosion, not encourage it. |
Re: Elbow Room
Whats wrong with missle silos? I would love to own one of the refinished ones. Too bad I can't afford it. :D

Re: Elbow Room
This is old hat. Right out of Tavistock and Rockefeller. I'll say this, I know a lot of you believe this psycho shit right down to your bones. But the amount you believe it is the amount you have bought the lie. I'll put it in capitols.
THE PROBLEM IS NOT OVER POPULATION. THE PROBLEM IS NOT LACK OF FOOD. THE PROBLEM IS NOT LACK OF TECHNOLOGY. The problem is ethical and moral and management skill, as in LACK OF ALL THREE. The government pays farmers not to grow food in the USA! There is plenty of food, there is plenty of land to grow food, there is plenty of technology to feed everyone. Why isn't it being used is the question. But the lies sound so good, they should, they've been taught for 100 years now in every school in the USA. They're a part of you now. This overpopulation lie and the controlled media preparation of the public for genocide is psychotic. The elite's best answer is too kill off 5/6 th's of the Earths people? Is that sane? Do you agree with it? If you do.... buddy, you better check your head! You're agreeing with a muderous psychotic lie. |
Re: Elbow Room
Genocide isn't a factor in what I'm talking about. I'm just looking at raw numbers. There is less and less space as there are more and more people. I got two feet of rain one night last year. It was an abberation, it usually isn't quite that bad, but two feet! We average five to six feet of rain per year. That's a lot of water. Our aquifers are being drunk dry.
With the right technology and the right culture you could support very high population levels and be ok. The technology currently exists, I make use of as much of it as I can. The cultural aspect will never be in place, with or without TPTB. Eventually a massive die-off through resource wars, starvation and disease will hit, without TPTB. I don't favor any genocide plan but it's a red herring issue anyway. Look at it from the other perspective even, what is so good about having 12 billion people instead of six billion? Now consider that of the current 6.6 billion people, only a little over 1 billion of them are from the developed world. By 2050 at 12 billion total population 10 billion of those will belong to the developing world that is already showing cracks in its ability to support its current population levels. Where do you think the surplus six billion will go when there is nothing for them to eat, nowhere to work and nowhere to live? Sure, lots will die off, hundreds of millions probably. At least as many will be camping out in your back yard, litterally or figuratively. There just isn't plenty of space and we'll be hitting realistic carrying capaccity very soon. I've already taken what reasonable steps I can. I own and run a scrap of land capable of supporting myself and my descendants indefinately for as long as we can hold onto it. Paying farmers not to grow food sounds really significant at first blush, on closer examination it shows a different story. The farmers are paid not to farm as part of a price fixing scheme I don't agree with. So what happens if they did farm it? Sounds like a food surplus, doesn't it? Maybe, short term. Do you know how many acres of arable land are destroyed every year by modern farming practices? Destroyed as in, they won't be able to farm it again on a scale large enough to support our current producer/consumer model for decades or longer. Even if you let that genie out of the bottle you've done nothing to forestall the inevitable. There is no up side to exponential population growth. There is really nowhere left to go anymore to just be left alone. |

Re: Elbow Room
in large areas of america there is plenty of elbow room, if you dont mind living far from cities. that involves major inconvenience though since most nonagricultural occupations are people related.
in europe they know cities are important, which is why they shove the immigrants out to "les banlieus" while the real frenchmen do their best to retain control of urban areas. we got it backasswards in the usa where the glorious "suburbs" are concerned. anyhow the topic is a very serious question. read more here http://www.carryingcapacity.org/ |

The town I live in was nothing but fruit orchards just 10 years ago, with some groupings of houses and a few grocery stores and churches here and there. Now it has exploded with growth, and of course we have the obligatory Borders/Mervyn's/Target groupings on every corner, now. I'll not drive past a particular part of town for a week or two, and the next time I do, three new large stores are there. Traffic is getting to be horrendous both down town and in the more open parts of town during business rush hours. It's just amazing to me to watch it go from fruit orchards and houses to everytown USA with a Starbucks on every corner in such an amazingly short time. I came here from a city much closer to or within in the bay area, so it still feels spacious and slow-paced compared to that, but it's hardly the refuge it once was. Seems growth like this is happening all over the place. The rest of the world is getting lit up, too: http://apod.nasa.gov/apod/image/0208...hts02_dmsp.jpg Sahara desert is looking pretty scarce, people-wise. :bear_w00t: Greenland if you like ice in your drinks. |

The thing is that "plenty of room" is deceptive. It only looks like plenty of room, for now. Even at the momment it is within easy access of anybody who has a $500 car or some time on their hands. As the NAFTA superhighway nears completion, well... stick a fork in it, it's done. Most of this land is full of missile silos anyway, prime nuclear targets when TPTB get froggy. It'll be interesting to see how Europe plays out. How are the French securing their food supplies for urban areas when the countryside is full of non-French? |

Australia would seem to be a likely candidate if it weren't for their sellout leadership and screwy gun laws. With a clear route of invasion from Asia I don't think they'll fare too well as the population nears 10 billion. Antarctica has some promise. It is heavily politicized but is so inhospitable it is still sparsely inhabbitted. Inhospitable in general will be a plus in the future, provided you understand how to live in such an environment. That's been my family's secret to survival for millenia. Anyway Antarctica is a little more friendly to life than outter space so it might be worth a look. |

By unassimilables I mean recent African immigrants and especially African Muslims. firstly. Secondly, a less obnoxious and unruly group, but unassimilable nonetheless, Asian Muslims, such as Arab Muslims, but including various mystery specimens from hither and yon.. the country side is and has been mostly populated by French. still is as far as I know. I figure if the SHTF in Europe, what will happen is basically something like Jugoslavia, ethnic cleansing. They will cut off the freebies and also put the immigrants on boats and unleash a bunch of massacres to send them packing. This has not happened yet, for the most part-- although the nineties saw lots of quiet simultaneous government action and complementary thug events that both pushed the same ways. But over all, the European reaktion against globalism started when Jugoslavia blew apart and it is just a slow fuse ticking since then, gathering steam here and there. The plebiscites against the EU constitution were strong messages in this direction too. The continuing electoral success of BNP, NPD, and FN speak to thousands of people especially in cities, ready and willing to step into government and do what it takes to reclaim Europe for its indigenous population. The French were even willing to elect the son of a Hungarian immigrant and a Jewess from Greece because he was willing to open the can of whupass on the migrants. Think about that one. I guess they figured where immigrants and such are concerned, takes one to know one. LOL |
Re: Elbow Room
i would add that in spain the lebensraum situation is bad getting worse too. though the system addles the wits of the younguns with constant booze and discoes and screwing type culture 24/7, the place is filling up with african immigrants that were not to be seen anywere fifteen years ago. the old pensioners moan and groan and cry for Franco but the younguns-- few in number,-- are mostly too drunk to give a crap about anything.
one downside of authoritarian regimes is the people lose their capacity for self control. once Franco's restrictions were lifted the whole place eventually went ga-ga for typical European hedonism. |

Re: Elbow Room
So the French essentially have them surrounded then? I've heard of the zones but haven't seen them for myself.
I'm suprised by what you had to say about Spain. Whether it is PC or not I can say from personal experience that in general terms Latins have a low tolerance for Africans of any origin. Latin gangs will listen to rap and emulate other aspects of Black gang culture but the rivalry between the two is legendary and is quite clearly racial in origin. I wonder if it has anything to do with the Moorish occupation? Perhaps not, the Moors of antiquity were a dark race and black Africans were among them but they were not a predominantly black people. Balkanization, in several accepted or implied meanings of the term, would seem to be the wave of the future. Europe will like errupt into an ethnic bloodbath sometime this century. Nice place to visit but I wouldn't want to live there. |

Re: Elbow Room
kg funny you mention gaza, as it is out of israeli control now both in terms of not being occupied, and not under control of the corrupt PLO.
it is also very densely populated here's a list from wiki by density http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of...lation_density here a website says Gaza is NOT the most densely populated place, though some israelis say it is. who knows? http://blog.camera.org/archives/2005...on_gaza_p.html |
