Quickie before I go, 2/19/15

Well, here we are again.  Time to go back to the old salt mine where I earn my legal tender.  Yep, I'd rather be doing something else, but as of now, I still need the money.

I was thinking just now about money, and how the love of it is truly evil.  What do you hear about so much these days---Isis?  Well, we wouldn't have Isis to worry about if we had developed the molten-salt reactor technology that was proven in the lab over 40 years ago.  We wouldn't have sent billions and even trillions of dollars to a group of Wahhabi tribesmen who want to convert us all to Islam, by the sword if they can.  No, not by the sword, but by the buck.  You see, Nixon made that Faustian Bargain with the oil sheiks in the early seventies---about the same time he canceled out the molten-salt reactor project.  The Faustian Bargain for oil is what binds us to the oil sheiks and gives them this power over us.  If we had the molten-salt reactor, this wouldn't be happening.  That's what Isis and 9-11 was all about.  It was about keeping us enslaved to the money power that is now tied to oil---thanks to Tricky Dick's decision gone haywire.

The solution to all that is to get free of the oil-money-power.  That's why I'm going off-the-grid.  The other?  The molten-salt reactor is being developed.  The oil-money-power's days are numbered, one way or another.  But there may be suffering before it's all said and done.  There may be a big war.  A war can be averted, but it is not looking good right now.  Let's hope that that doesn't happen.  It may well jeopardize whatever good outcomes that may still be possible.
