    Default Simple Solution ( ! )

    This is how the economic system corrects itself. Are there too many people? No problem. As the population grows and food supplies dwindle because of manufactured drought and diversion of grain supplies, the prices go up and millions starve to death, reducing the population back down to a sustainable level to begin another round of growth and decline, all to maintain the elite, super rich, global manipulators. But while they fatten their investment portfolios and bank accounts and expand into outer space, they fail to see the ecocidal consequences of dumping ever growing masses of garbage, sewage and industrial waste in landfills, lakes and the global ocean. The biosphere itself, however, feels the impact and reacts with ever worsening storms, floods, droughts and wildfires, like any body trying to heal itself of an infection. Kurt Vonnegut said: "The Earth's immune system is trying to get rid of you!" But the people are so caught up in commercial operations apparently not even his readers understood what he was talking about.
