The Dreamtime

- James Howard Kunstler -

Kunstler starts with this: "The idea that techno-industrial society is headed toward a collapse has become very unpopular the last couple of years."

If anything, the opposite is true. The culture is rife with end times scenarios, with television shows like PREPPERS and the WALKING DEAD to economists like Jim Rogers and Dr. Doom Mr. Faber. The idea is very popular.

What is the cause of this Kunstler asks? He says, "This is what comes of divorcing truth from reality.."

If anything, it is Kunstler who divorces truth from reality. Take his repeated allegiance to the idea of Peak Oil -- thoroughly refuted by experts and now the recent enormous oil discovery coming out of Southern Australia.

So, what, according to Kunstler, needs to be done. He says, "To put it as simply as possible, the main task before this society is to change the way we live."

We know from his past opus what that means: the elimination of anything made by hand and the forced evacuation of suburbia to the crime ridden big cities -- to name just a few of his proposals.

Kunstler, as we know from volunteered information, has been hospitalized a few times. How does the dear man imagine, in his Luddite future, he'll be transported to a medical facility?

Since he's done away with technology, does he envision himself being dragged in a litter by horses over rocky paths or unrepaired roadways?

Now who is it that's in a dream state?

One way to sum up the current psychological state of the nation is that an awful lot of people who ought to know better don’t know their ass from a hole in the ground anymore... Lire la suite
