    I think also we're going to see a period in the western world where working people are just giving up because working hard is no longer a guarantee of a comfortable life...social unrest to follow? Maybe we are seeing the beginnings of this already

      This is because the political class have sold out the working class.

    If you educate those that don't have education, they will find out who keeps it that way and that is high risk to the rich controllers...
    Knowledge is power and if not shared with all, repercussions.
    Remember that when the curtain is pulled back, citizens will want retribution especially when resources are stolen and fair payment wasn't made...

      Musk donated $1.95 billion worth of Tesla shares to charities in 2022 and $5.74 billion in 2021, according to filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). The Musk Foundation, like all charitable organizations, is mandated by law to allocate a minimum of 5% of its assets annually

      I think it's time to have a deeper dive into who benefits from these charities. All well and good to say billionaire x has donated xyz to these charities, that money could have been used by government to drive a more efficient policy to prevent people from seeking charity in the first place.

    Greed and numbers in a pocket book are all that matter to the 1% ;
    and that 1% could feed, clothe and shelter every human on earth without losing a cent:
    They don't want to.

    Starlink better than fibre , which one offers you a faster and more reliable internet connection? Fiber has a much faster maximum and median speed than Starlink or any other satellite provider.who provided it and who will benefit, Many countries with emerging economies suffer from a high level of corruption that slows their overall development. The entire society is affected as a result of the inefficient allocation of resources, the presence of a shadow economy, and low-quality education and healthcare.

    Spoken like an economist. Scientists, geologists, and engineers warn of the declining commodities resources and increasing cost of supply, major ones being oil and energy and fertilizers potisium and phosphorous.

      In terms of energy the future is one of abundance if we actually had governments driving the adoption of the renewables all around us. We’ve got a very large nuclear reactor in the sky above us and the ways of capturing and storing its energy are becoming more efficient each year. Combined with geothermal energy and manmade nuclear reactors the cost of energy should become very low in comparison with fossil fuels.

    • @dan2304

      @@chrisburnett4742 Unfortunately the materials needed, metals and minerals, to do all of that are not available for more than a small fraction of the global population. Additionally fossil fuels are used as feed stock for the production of many other important products and particularly for food production as are fertilizers that are already in short supply.
      The consequence is that fossil fuels and most commodities will be used to first economic depletion within a decade or so then to near depletion to support current global population. Economic depletion is soon, being when the cost of supply is more than the ability to pay which already applies to many countries. Global depopulation is the only solution. Which will happen either sooner in a controlled, organised and humane way or through the brutal forces of nature long before the end of this century.

      @@dan2304 You are correct about the massive increase of particular minerals that are required but all hope is not lost. Reducing material intensity and encouraging material substitution via technology innovation can play major roles in alleviating strains on supply, while reducing costs, eg, 40-50% reductions in the use of silver and silicon in solar cells over the past decade have enabled a spectacular rise in solar PV deployment. Innovation in production technologies can also unlock sizeable new supplies. Emerging technologies, such as direct lithium extraction or enhanced metal recovery from waste streams or low-grade ores, offer the potential for a step change in future supply volumes.
      A renewed intense and mandated program of recycling to recover minerals from spent products will also relieve some supply pressures. And technology innovation must be promoted along all points of the value chain. Energy from green hydrogen for example will be viable by the end of this decade and who knows what else is around the corner.
      I don’t expect human beings to go down without a fight and in this exponential age of AI there maybe some amazing new technologies to be developed Nuclear fission energy currently provides quite a low resource energy source and fusion is on the horizon.
      I’m not quite sure what you mean by a controlled, organised and humane depopulation program. I think Adolf H tried that 80 odd years ago. Who do you suggest we cull first? Who gets to choose? Maybe we should cull western countries first given that their unsustainable profit and growth driven economic programs have got us to where we are.
