These characters should probably read up on the French revolution. Especially the part about how the aristocrats ended up.

I believe that I have recently read that Mr. Soros is buying coal plants for pennies on the dollar.

I have been saying this for years. Geo Soros made most of his money shorting the GBP. And it was a good bet, I do not begrudge a speculator or gambler profiting from their risks and investments.

But the elites in Wash DC are now predominantly SHORT. They believe that money will flow now from where it is concentrated to where it is not. They hate America so wishing for its demise it not incoherent to them. Indeed it may be the most coherent thing they have done for quite a while. They want America to die. Their bets flower when America suffers a decline.

Easily 90% of stock market investors or specs do not understand this as it runs contrary to much of human nature. To profit from a short bet one has to first borrow the underlying, then sell it in the open market. The hope is that a further decline lowers the market price farther, and the “short” can buy back what they sold cheaper than they sold it for, then return it to the one who he borrowed it from.

One way to undermine the solidity of an entity is to saddle it with ever more debt. At some point, the debt can and will grow to a point where nobody believes the “borrower”, the short, will be able to buy back the shorted item. We got that.

green energy = fuzzy definition
social justice = fuzzy definition
climate change = fuzzy definition

I see a pattern here.

I hope they’re naked shorting because I have a feeling the market could very well go on a tear. I’d like to see these guys get a good short squeeze.

Carbon is the basic building block for almost all complex organic molecules on Earth.

Recently, I read that almost all the carbon in all those organic molecules originally came from Earth’s atmosphere.

Can anyone here confirm that?

Another interesting factoid I recently acquired - Our current atmosphere contains about 400 parts-per-million of CO2.

If CO2 ever drops to 150 parts-per-million, almost every plant on Earth would die, which means almost every human being would die, too.
