Most of the time, readers thank me for my outspoken courage
and integrity. Others lambaste me with names and other epithets.
Last week, a reader tried to bait me into arguing with his
myopic support of population growth. His inane arguments do not
hold water because they stem from his emotional paradigm. I receive dozens of
letters from well-meaning writers, but they all fail to understand that our
present resource base cannot and will not sustain our population today, let
alone 30 years from now with an added 100 million Americans.
Our national leaders and regular citizens prove dumber than
a box of rocks!
That's the problem! We suffer an entire society thinking and
standing on the fractured glass legs of the 20th century. We think our "expand
forever" paradigms of the last century can continue in the 21st century. They
cannot! They will not!
Yet, we persist in our folly. We defend it! We wallow in it!
And, if we continue, we will collapse in it.
Therefore, in this column, I will present a brilliant
treatise by Chris Clugston, a Phi Beta Kappa and Magna Cum Laude from Penn
State University. Additionally, he earned an MBA with High Distinction from
Temple University.
In his paper, he methodically presents the irrefutable path
of collapse our civilization races along in 2009. He presents graphs and logic
that even a 6th grader can understand.
