A Warning Sign: Three News Articles You Never Expect To See On The Same Day

   (Commentary posted by Roger Erickson)

And the timing with eerie artwork from The Nib? Spooky!




First, there's worrisome news:
We’ve killed off half the world’s animals since 1970
(Granted, WashPost journalists don't know WTF is vs isn't an "animal," or that humans are vertebrates too, but hopefully you get the picture. Mixing semantics & sophistry never effects coherent discourse, right?)

Second, this electorate's group brain is NOT even boarding at the station yet, so YES, we are in serious trouble:
Eric Holder WON'T Urge TBTJ Banks to Leave Transparent Backdoors for Public Financial Regulatory Agencies
Politicians & voters who THINK? About animals? And social species? And long term planning too? Not to mention transparency? Eric Holder? 

Don't mix oxymorons.  Oh well. We'll get a survive/fail grade someday, but it may be so tardi that only waterbears will be left to laugh at Holder's Folly.

Third, it's true, Maud, no one seems to care:
As Dark Money Floods U.S. Elections, Regulators Turn a Blind Eye
Is all this happening because we are voluntarily running out of fiat? Can enough citizens make the algebraic substitution of Public Initiative for currency operations? Why are most journalists and citizens not alarmed at our Deficit in Logical Discourse?

To find out, be sure to tune into the next episode of:
AS THE DAZED TURN
Will the last person left turn off the fiat when they leave? We wouldn't want the waterbears to run out.

ps: The answer is "plutocrats."
