The Smug, Infantile Thievery of the Upper-Middle-Class

Their wholesale abandonment of ethics has destroyed the culture

Prices have risen 20% since Biden took office because of egregious borrowing. That money has been stolen by the most privileged among us.

Absurdistan believes we should be living in a Golden Age. But we are not. The lower 75% struggle through every month, paycheck to paycheck. The only reason unemployment is low is that people are working two or three jobs, none of which offer benefits. Misallocation of resources is a formal term in economics, and we have thrown away our bounty, frozen our assets, and are living on borrowed time and money. The superculture told us we are destroying the earth and without looking at the facts, every single country has shredded trillions in wealth in the last 20 years, stalling what looked like, in 1999, a new Golden Age. We in the west have squelched (another economic term) skilled labor, entrepreneurship, capital and ideas in service of the False God of Green. In 75% of the country, we are living as if in a developing country, without the hope. And let me be clear: the “science” is total crap, alarmist garbage. It obscures real problems and prevents real solutions.

The people taking advantage of us are the well-heeled, expensively educated, looters in the upper middle class. And that’s not all, another sector with the responsibility of care, of ethics-in-action, joined the club, all the churches, neglecting parish and parishioner whether Buddhist or Evangelical, to join in the children’s army. Your donations, tithing pour into the coffers of the rich.

You pay for all of it. Your tax and donation dollars flow into the pension funds of the upper-middle-class and the hedge funds of the super-wealthy. Not one individual of which constrains their lives in any way,

Let me explain.
 
The most egregious theft of collective wealth and well-being -- and it is flat-out theft -- is the churn on “alternative” forms of energy production. Senator Tommy Tuberville of Alabama said two weeks ago, in an interview with Steve Bannon that the U.S. has spent some $7 trillion over budget in the last three years, and 25 percent of that went to "climate change" projects. They are all like Solyndra, massively subsidized and within a decade, massive failures. "The investors take a tax loss," said Tuberville, "then move onto the next effort where they again loot the public." This is salted through all the investment banks, retirement accounts. It represents all putative growth, which is debt-fueled, every single penny.

 
 

In June of 2023, the Department of Energy admitted that it had allocated $1.3 trillion for "clean energy" investment support since 2020, and that spending rose 25 percent from 2021-23. This is a fraction of what was really spent. Further, this money is not only based in debt, thus raising inflation, but it is also raising energy prices. It is the principal reason that almost 25 percent of us, according to economist Peter St. Onge, have been forced to choose between heat and food this winter.

Seventy-five percent of $7 trillion is $1,750,000,000, in an annual gift to the rich. The World Economic Forum projects that climate spending in the U.S. will triple over the next ten years. Biden's "climate" budget is $5.7 trillion. Triple that to $20 trillion. No wonder the stock market is booming. The U.S. has pledged another half a trillion in “low carbon electricity” under this year’s Paris Climate Accord. And further:

Among all measures tracked since 2020, direct incentives for manufacturers aimed at bolstering domestic manufacturing of "clean" energy now total to around $90 billion.

Since the start of the global energy crisis, governments have also allocated $900 billion to short-term consumer affordability measures, additional to pre-existing support programs and subsidies. Around 30 percent of this "affordability" spending has been announced in the past six months, and despite calls to better target households and industries most in need, only 25 percent of affordability measures are targeted towards low-income households and most-impacted industries.

Harvest the earth.
But don't **** where you sleep.

Describe genetic results by the numbers living forward since inception of homo sapien species having the exact ancestral lineages present by cycled generation gaps creating the dominate genes of each great great grandchild born to replace their 30 previous ancestors created their unique chromosome characteristics carried cradle to grave?

1st generation of original 16 great great grandparents
2nd generation of original 8 great grandparents as siblings not reproducing another generation gap became extinct when died same results as original 16.
3rd generation gap of 4 grandparents with siblings not reproducing becoming extinct at death.
4th generation cycle of 2 parents and sibling not reproducing becoming extinct when they die
5th generation gap each arriving first generation of great great grandchildren arriving one at time sharing space specifically alive.
6th generation being 2nd generation gap of arriving great great grandchildren occupying the moment here population is never same reproductions again.

What part of natural selection does every reality saving humanity reject as possible in current events within this species in this atmosphere today.

Genetics still is eternally separating each replacement added forward now.

what corrupts every great great grandchild ever born since dawn of intellectual humanity? Societal evolution laws ordering compliance to people never accepting life when adapting as displaced today.

Back to topic of this thread, what is middle class of 4 generation gaps ignoring how living is self evident?

population living here by the numbers inhabiting the moment so far?
