    “We won’t stop until it’s all gone.” re tropical forests.

    There is no evidence to the contrary.

    This one obscenity by our species is enough for the apparent “Toxic, Keep Out” sign the other intelligences of the galaxy have posted on our planet.

    The suggestion about carbon taxes is naive beyond belief. Want to do something effective about the annihilation of the richest communities on the planet? A) recognize fully that all actions taken so far have been totally useless. B) find something utterly different to attempt. C) Be prepared to kill people to be effective; because the forest genocide forces – do kill people to keep cutting – we know that for absolute fact. D) identify the real causes of the continuing genocides; it is NOT the poverty of the local people – the cause is the end user, the neowealthy of China, the organized criminal rich of the west – who buy the end products. It would be gratifying to kill a few of the corrupt enablers, but without much point; they will instantly be replaced with another corrupt official.

    Make cutting tropical forests unprofitable. Nothing else will work.

    Dow opens up, as expected. I’m waiting for one of my favorite market phrases to reappear, the “dead cat bounce” observation. So evocative!

    The VIX is higher than it has been for around 4 years. https://www.marketwatch.com/investing/index/VIX

    I have been under the impression in the past few years that this index has been successfully suborned, via Owner manipulations, and is no longer an objective measure, but one under control. If so – the Owners are now inciting panic; which would be interesting.

    The European Governments knew all about these upcoming elections many days before the Greek Parliament ever found out about them, via the news! This proves beyond every reasonable doubt that Democracy died in Greece with this Coup d’ Etat that the Troika+Germany orchestrated in Greece. Tsipras decided to keep the title, the power and the money and turned, to become one more collaborating PM in a long list of betrayers. Should he was the leader everybody hoped for, none of this travesty would have happened. But he went the easy way, the way of personal gain and History will judge him for this. He’s one of them now.

    After the elections he will form a government with the rest of the pro-austerity parties, in order to move to the next part of the plan: Cataloging and then confiscating all private property and wealth on the behalf of Troika+Germany and the banks they represent. In an unprecedented move, just before Tsipras resigned to go to the elections, Syriza voted for a law which permits taxmen entering homes without a warrant and seizing all items, cash, clothes, food etc as they see fit. They can also confiscate people’s houses and other property with express tribunals and only a phone call to some judge. These taxmen will be most probably foreigners, with “international experience”, as we learn in the news.

    It is hard to say that this Syriza collapse wasn’t a planned event. Now there is no real political opposition to Troika’s plans. All established parties, with the exception of Syriza’s rebels, Golden Dawn fascists and some extra-parliamentary parties, are now in full agreement and collaboration to move forward with the plan of stripping down all assets, all wealth, all property from the Greek people. It is a hostile takeover of everything, but the problem still remains: Who will do it and how they will enforce this policy and on who’s behalf…

    Wow, speechless.
