Much of our Eden/Earth has gotten past the point of no return. �We
need to be looking elsewhere.


The ruling elites are convinced they can buy their way out of our
destructive destiny by a Star Trek kind of escape to some other planet they
think they can dominate, and eventually destroy, like this one.


Correct, but only as long as we (their village idiots) get pay for
everything they need.


Nothing will be accomplished saving this planet, until the ruling elites
finally come to the realization that this dream of off-Earth luxury cannot
be attained before the Earth's resources have been depleted and/or they
discover space is simply too hostile to such fragile bodies as theirs to
survive even the trip, to say nothing of the new planet. �Our dwindling
resources will continue to be wasted in vast quantities in such space
fantasies as NASA and the other countries' space bureaucracies the elites
control.


Correct again.  Before we even accomplish our moon or the planet
Venus, we'll need to fix or at least revise a number of terrestrial
issues that mostly pertain as to trimming the demands imposed by the
rich and powerful, that seem to take the vast bulk of our resources,
talents and personal services.


By then, it will probably be way too late, prompting them to panic and use
their weapons technologies on the masses to try to conserve, for themselves
and their necessary worker slaves, what resources are left, devastating
Earth's population by up to 90% or more in the ensuing genocide.

It's not a pretty picture and I don't believe, at this late date in the
plan, that the masses have the resources to stop it.

"SOYLENT GREEN IS MADE FROM PEOPLE!" - Movie or prophecy??


Perhaps Soylent Green doesn't taste so bad, and we should just stop
our whining.
