I think most of us don't quite realize how pivotal this paper is. It will not change the Public perception quickly...but slowly it will change much. The follow-on papers promised both in the article and in the comments posted above by Jones et al. will destroy what little remains of the official fiction, IMO. The 'unspeakable' has arrived at Ground Zero - as it did in Dallas and needs to be given a voice. As Charles said and others have given voice to, America is in deep doo-doo. Beyond belief. Load in the current collapse of the 'standard' model of Corporate-Financial-Speculative-Unregulated-Capitalism and I agree with Peter - anything can happen and the continuation of America as it has existed up to now is NOT assured. I almost would bet [and I need the money] that come ten years from now it will not exist as it does now...not in any recognizable way....but how it will change, I dare not bet on - yet. There are nightmare scenarios and there are better ones. The nightmare scenarios are championed by those behind the curtains as their only way of keeping control and power/wealth. And there are the better outcomes - less likely - but POSSIBLE - dare we hope - dare we try - dare we fight for? The level of change for any of these 'better' outcomes are mind-boggling; revolutionary in every meaning of that term. A complete paradigm shift; a complete change of priorities and moral quest, as a civilization, Nation, People. The Planet Gaia has reached its limits of humanity's abuse. The 'system' dominant on the Planet Gaia has reached its limit of abuse. We are living in both dangerous and interesting times. We are damned and priviliged to live in the/a time of change. How it changes is up to the collective 'us'. The majority, IMO, are pitted against the minority elite. This battle is about 14,000 years old [read The Chalice And The Blade by Eisler] and has finally come to the moment of 'deneumont', IMO. The chances of a positive outcome (to me) are slim, but WELL worth the fight! Without hope, there is not reason to carry on. We JUST MIGHT pull it off........we must put our shoulders to the wheel and try with all our might. Now, I believe, is the time for maximum effort. The global economic collapse is both the worst of outcomes and the best of possibilities - perhaps our last chance......................
From Dallas to 911 to the Economic Collapse.......the pattern is the same, the Unspeakable manifest in each.....
