If you want to have some fun, read the environmentalists books from 30 years ago and see how many of their bold predictions have come true. So far they have been wrong 100% of the time. Modern environmentalism has become its own religion complete with its own apocalypse. Funny though, how the apocalypse keeps getting postponed. My high school teacher said the sh!t would hit the fan by 1980 (I graduated in 1972) We were going to have a new ice age and glaciers were going to cover Canada and much of the US. We were supposed to be OUT of oil by the mid 1980’s at the latest. Every one of their predictions has proven wrong. Notice please that the remedy is always the same, destroy the economy of the United States, massively increase taxes, let millions (billions?) die and turn power over to the globalist bureaucrats who should really be running everything anyway.

We all like to think of ourselves as rugged individualists. But when push comes to shove most of us are sheep who do what we are told. Worst of all, a lot of us become unpaid agents of whoever is controlling the agenda by enforcing the current dogma on the few rugged individualists who actually exist.
