holding on

look. some people at yale got together to assuage fears that "going green" will precipitate economic decline in america. no, quite to the contrary, they proffer - "Even under worst case assumptions the economy would continue to grow." it's a pretty confined set of assumptions and excludes things like the economy collapsing because it's fundamentally predicated on petroleum or world war three coming because those whose fortunes are tied to petroleum refuse to try their hands at new methods of exploitation/money making. so yeah, yale economists are telling us that the shitty industrial party can just drag on forever. clinging to false ideas, lies and bad dreams cannot change the coming reality.
