Methodology

For those that have been following along my conclusions came by deleting the rhetoric. Setting aside who wants what and what the`re saying to get it. I`ve put everything in the context of the largest and now the most influential force on the planet, globalism.

I`ve left the good and bad that generates the rhetoric by focusing on where will it go now . I`m very concerned that we are entering into a period where all the gains made since the end of the cold war could crumble to dust in a matter of a few months. Sry, that`s reality without the sugar coating.
First I`ll deal with not doing anything or reversing globalism totally.

There is a large number of people advocating trade barriers, import duties and other restrictions that would isolate various interests, kind of like the monopolies of 50 years ago. That system advanced the world a great deal of with seemingly unlimited supply of cheap commodities. With dwindling raw resources and oil on life support even if we wanted to go back, we can`t.
Doing nothing is the perfect template for a fight to the death over the last oil or raw resources and it will be the death of the planet. Complete, utter and total destruction. My thumbs down on doing nothing.

To date the only program that`s on the table for doing something is creating a green economy. I really like the concept and have spent a great deal of time researching photovoltaics, geo-therm and hydrogen cells. Certainly an addition to the global economy of this size would provide considerable short term stability. The concept revolves around one basic factor, consumers. This is also where the biggest problem lays. In order to create a green global economy the consumers must buy the product, spend extra which they would if they were not broke. Even by massive tax cuts and incentives to move consumers green it wouldn`t be enough, probably not even enough to keep consumers buying when tax cuts will create a spike in inflation.
Really, who can go green when finances are tight. Pay a little more to keep that old dishwasher, sure, it works and I can`t afford a new one.

That`s why I`m trying to put a global transportation system on the table. My calculations conclude that most of the investment would be private and users, the commuters, could take their vehicle to work in 25% of the time it takes now with costs at par with todays commuters costs and no danger of rapid change as we always experience with oil. Consumers not spending more, just differently leaving consumers with the funds to replace that old dishwasher, that`s feasible and long term.
Did I mention a massive reduction in pollution?

Hope that simplified my blog for everyone.
