Food Insecurity / Hunger

Bottom Feeder said:

Israel seems to be the root cause of all human suffering according to your view.
Why is that? Are you palestinian, iranian or some other kind of closet rag head?
Have you been physically injured by one?
What? You're hatred runs deep.
I was commenting on street beggars and you say;

Huh?

An Israeli is a street beggar when you get down to it. It so easy to shut me up, stop giving my tax money to foreigners...

Could the war on Iran pose lasting risks to global food security? | Inside Story​

That's a good reason to vote for him.

I don't give a schitt either. And I'm poor myself.

I'm poor but I live within my means. WELL within my means. When I woke up one day, some months back, and saw what my "unrealized capital gains" were...I could have gone ballistic, buying all kinds of crap. Buy a new (NEW!) BMW. Or whatever car the flexing ijits on antiSocial Mediuh support today.

I didn't.

You know what? When you see gubbermint pfukking up a problem...it all started with "caring." The New Dealers "cared" (not really) about the poor. So they created AFDC. Which created an epidemic of bastardy.

The law-school grads of the 1940s "cared" about Religious Freedoms. So, in the fullness of time, enough were appointed to the Stuporeme Bench that they could order the Ten Commandments and moral instruction out of the classrooms in public skeulz. Now we have a completely feral, culturally illiterate generation...two, in fact. Everyone under 50.

Barry the Kenyan "cared" about Glow Bull Warming. So, not being an engineer, not being constrained by technological realities, he ORDERED FANTASY STANDARDS on new cars. You likin' those turbocharged, tinfoil-framed Obamacars that shut off at every stop sign? You likin' how the engines now fail at 40k miles?

THAT COMES OF CARING.

I don't want gubbermint to even KNOW MY EXISTENCE. Their "caring" is toxic....fatal.

My Prius C is at 115k miles and running strong.

What happens when the Caring Globalists cut off the parts?

I was watching an Eww Toob vid the other day - a guy who bought a 1968 Ford for a daily driver. He was talking about all the problems that damned, double-damned ethanol has caused.

ALL the rubber in the fuel system. He has to use high-pressure fuel-injection lines, simply because they're designed to work with the rotgut gas that the Caring government is making us buy. His steel fuel lines, under the car, have corroded, as has the gas tank. And, he's had to rebuild his carburetor.

He says when he can get straight gas, he gets four extra miles a gallon. I believe it - Ethanol has about 60 percent of the heat energy that gasoline has.

So. They cut off the parts; they make the gasoline so lousy that only government-spec cars can run it...AND they turn off your programmable money, if you're outside your personalized limits.

What is the point? There is no escape. Except the true escape, which is total collapse. That will give the escape of death to three-quarters of us; and have the survivors starting over. Like they did coming off the Mayflower.

Gasahol is the biggest fraud going, my old Corolla got 36 mpg with straight gas and about 32 with the alcohol stuff. I'm worried the 15% crap will damage the cars and lawn equipment.
