74
00:03:49,000 –> 00:03:51,319
it’s me Sunday Night with Alan Ray. Welcome to Sunday

75
00:03:51,400 –> 00:03:53,680
Night with Elan Ray. I am your humble host. I

76
00:03:53,759 –> 00:03:56,639
think my name’s Alan Ray. Still, yes, yes, it is HI.

77
00:03:58,039 –> 00:04:03,039
You know I’ve breached. I briefly discussed this subject tonight

78
00:04:04,319 –> 00:04:06,360
in a show about a year ago. Might have you

79
00:04:06,360 –> 00:04:08,800
ever been more? I don’t know. I’m old, I lose track.

80
00:04:10,240 –> 00:04:13,199
But tonight we’re going to talk about something that I

81
00:04:13,280 –> 00:04:15,759
kind of fell down this rabbit hole. And it started

82
00:04:15,759 –> 00:04:18,360
a couple of weeks ago. Actually I’m not gonna lie

83
00:04:18,360 –> 00:04:20,160
to you, it started a while ago. I still haven’t

84
00:04:20,240 –> 00:04:21,879
let it go from the last time I talked about it,

85
00:04:21,920 –> 00:04:26,040
but I just happened to bring it up again. Scrolling

86
00:04:26,079 –> 00:04:31,000
through the book of faces and my Facebook is mostly

87
00:04:31,079 –> 00:04:33,839
family and people I played music with. That’s the bulk

88
00:04:33,839 –> 00:04:35,680
of it. A couple of people I’ve graduated with, a

89
00:04:35,680 –> 00:04:38,160
couple of people went to school with a few people

90
00:04:38,160 –> 00:04:42,000
I met along the way, but mostly musicians and mostly

91
00:04:42,360 –> 00:04:44,920
family members. I just like to make sure that people

92
00:04:44,920 –> 00:04:48,240
I know are still alive. And I don’t visit there often,

93
00:04:48,279 –> 00:04:51,720
but I was scrolling through places and my wife and

94
00:04:51,759 –> 00:04:55,959
I we went into my hometown last night and have

95
00:04:56,079 –> 00:04:59,040
all things. It was a Jimmy Buffett tribute at the

96
00:04:59,079 –> 00:05:02,560
Croswell Opera House and it was really good. It was

97
00:05:02,600 –> 00:05:06,199
really good. The people that put it on were absolutely outstanding.

98
00:05:07,279 –> 00:05:09,120
But I was trying to kind of look to see

99
00:05:09,120 –> 00:05:11,680
who was playing where, you know, all my musician friends,

100
00:05:12,040 –> 00:05:14,800
and looked at all the venues. I wasn’t really looking

101
00:05:14,839 –> 00:05:17,240
at my friends. I was looking at the venues and

102
00:05:17,279 –> 00:05:20,800
I started noticing something that in this area, and I

103
00:05:20,839 –> 00:05:25,920
can’t speak for every area, but in this area, all

104
00:05:25,920 –> 00:05:31,839
the musicians are like fifty years old on up, fifty

105
00:05:31,879 –> 00:05:37,160
and older, and it was bothering me. It bothered me

106
00:05:37,199 –> 00:05:39,240
when I was twenty one. When I was twenty one

107
00:05:39,319 –> 00:05:43,439
years old, I was playing every weekend shoot. I started

108
00:05:43,439 –> 00:05:45,800
playing when I was fifteen, but when I was twenty one,

109
00:05:45,839 –> 00:05:49,360
all bets were off, all bets were off. We lived

110
00:05:49,439 –> 00:05:53,680
for Friday night, Saturday night, you don’t see that anymore.

111
00:05:53,839 –> 00:05:58,839
You don’t see young people playing in bands when you

112
00:05:58,920 –> 00:06:02,319
walk into a place, at least in this whole area now.

113
00:06:02,519 –> 00:06:06,240
And it’s not just my hometown area. I’m talking. I’ve

114
00:06:06,279 –> 00:06:09,720
been Toledo, up in Detroit, Grand Rapids. I go into

115
00:06:09,720 –> 00:06:12,600
places and the musicians just look old and tired, and

116
00:06:12,639 –> 00:06:17,199
they’re gonna die soon. I’m staring down sixty Okay. Now,

117
00:06:17,199 –> 00:06:20,240
I’m planning on doing some shows this summer. I don’t

118
00:06:20,279 –> 00:06:22,879
scream into a microphone anymore, Folks, don’t. I don’t have

119
00:06:22,959 –> 00:06:26,000
long hair. I don’t have hair. It’s thinning out really badly.

120
00:06:26,920 –> 00:06:29,360
I’m afraid to grow it out because just gravity might

121
00:06:29,360 –> 00:06:30,920
pull a thrust of the way out of my brain,

122
00:06:31,000 –> 00:06:34,639
you know, and then I’ve got nothing. But all of

123
00:06:34,680 –> 00:06:36,720
the musicians are looking old and tired, and not just

124
00:06:36,800 –> 00:06:39,720
my friends, but the people I don’t even know. Last

125
00:06:39,759 –> 00:06:42,240
night at that tribute band, Okay, the guitar player was

126
00:06:42,279 –> 00:06:48,319
probably about thirty, The percussionist was probably about thirty thirty five. Okay,

127
00:06:48,360 –> 00:06:50,600
those guys were the youngest. Pee Well, I’m not gonna

128
00:06:50,600 –> 00:06:52,800
say that the youngest people on stage. The two backing

129
00:06:52,879 –> 00:06:56,639
musicians were probably in their forties, young ladies. One was

130
00:06:56,639 –> 00:07:01,319
from Detroit, one was from Adrian Gray, great vocalist, just

131
00:07:01,360 –> 00:07:04,639
beautiful vocalists. But the rest of the band, the rest

132
00:07:04,639 –> 00:07:06,360
of the band up on stage doing this tribute to

133
00:07:06,399 –> 00:07:09,759
Jimmy Buffett, was all in their fifties, late fifties and

134
00:07:09,839 –> 00:07:12,959
sixties and sometimes seventies. There’s a ten piece band. It

135
00:07:13,079 –> 00:07:22,800
was crazy politics, junkie. It finished it off. Being a

136
00:07:23,000 –> 00:07:27,160
lifelong bar band person who has touched fame a couple

137
00:07:27,199 –> 00:07:29,240
of times, but for the most part, has played bars

138
00:07:29,279 –> 00:07:33,399
his whole life. I watched the bar scene tank A

139
00:07:34,160 –> 00:07:36,560
when they really started cracking down on drunk driving, and

140
00:07:36,639 –> 00:07:41,720
B when the Smoking Band became just prominent throughout the country.

141
00:07:41,800 –> 00:07:45,279
It killed the bar scene. Now that COVID hit, yes,

142
00:07:45,439 –> 00:07:47,600
it is pretty much gone. It just drove a stake

143
00:07:47,680 –> 00:07:50,839
right through what it was ever left of the steaming,

144
00:07:51,040 –> 00:07:56,360
lifeless hulk that was barely gasping. But anyways, I just

145
00:07:56,639 –> 00:07:58,720
it just bothered me to the point where I started

146
00:07:58,720 –> 00:08:00,839
working on this and I kind of in the back

147
00:08:00,879 –> 00:08:03,519
of my mind I wanted to do a two parter tonight,

148
00:08:03,560 –> 00:08:06,759
but I’m not. I’m going to talk about something that’s

149
00:08:07,199 –> 00:08:11,959
it should concern you some people will scare you. I

150
00:08:12,040 –> 00:08:15,199
personally have mixed feelings about it. There’s part of me

151
00:08:15,399 –> 00:08:17,839
that are like, okay, whatever, and there’s another part of

152
00:08:17,879 –> 00:08:20,079
me that that is thinking that I don’t think we

153
00:08:20,639 –> 00:08:24,120
understand what’s about to happen to us as a planet,

154
00:08:24,639 –> 00:08:29,560
as a world. Not to mention our country, I’m talking,

155
00:08:29,600 –> 00:08:32,320
of course, about something you don’t hear on the news,

156
00:08:32,320 –> 00:08:33,840
and I’ve talked to a couple of people about it

157
00:08:33,879 –> 00:08:36,600
today and they looked at me like I was growing horns,

158
00:08:36,639 –> 00:08:41,200
like what are you talking about? Talking about the population implosion?

159
00:08:43,440 –> 00:08:49,960
Our population, folks, is on the verge of a stagnating.

160
00:08:51,120 –> 00:08:55,279
A lot of places in the world it’s collapsing, and

161
00:08:55,360 –> 00:08:58,159
some places are still gaining a little bit, but globally,

162
00:08:59,320 –> 00:09:03,759
globally and compared to the time frame of mankind itself,

163
00:09:04,240 –> 00:09:09,559
the population is stagnating, and in possibly in our lifetime

164
00:09:09,559 –> 00:09:14,120
we’ll discuss this later, we will actually see a decrease

165
00:09:14,159 –> 00:09:20,200
in population, a self imposed decrease in population that may

166
00:09:20,279 –> 00:09:24,600
even rival percentage wise the Black Plague. And we’re doing

167
00:09:24,639 –> 00:09:29,200
it to ourselves, and I don’t think we understand what

168
00:09:29,440 –> 00:09:35,080
we’re about to do. It’s crazy, I know, but here

169
00:09:35,120 –> 00:09:44,120
we are so hey, man, cheers, here’s the human population.

170
00:09:44,399 –> 00:10:00,840
God bless it. Let’s get into this, Okay. I talked

171
00:10:00,879 –> 00:10:06,919
about Paul Erlick’s a Stanford University biologist, one of the experts,

172
00:10:11,720 –> 00:10:13,919
and I did talk about him. I’ve discussed him right

173
00:10:13,919 –> 00:10:16,440
here on Sunday Night with Alan Ray. He’s best known

174
00:10:16,480 –> 00:10:19,639
for his nineteen sixty eight book The Population Bomb. It

175
00:10:19,679 –> 00:10:21,960
was co authored by his wife Ann Erlik, where he

176
00:10:22,039 –> 00:10:26,080
made a series of dire predictions about overpopulation and its consequences.

177
00:10:26,840 –> 00:10:29,399
And first of all, let’s uh, hey, welcome everybody in chat.

178
00:10:29,720 –> 00:10:31,960
I got Rex and I got already in there. I’ve

179
00:10:32,039 –> 00:10:36,559
got a raptor in there. I’ve got politics junkie in there. Everybody,

180
00:10:36,600 –> 00:10:39,000
anybody I missed, Thanks for hanging out with me, guys,

181
00:10:39,080 –> 00:10:41,639
and hey, get your friends in here. You know this

182
00:10:41,679 –> 00:10:45,080
is gonna be an important discussion. And you hear every

183
00:10:45,120 –> 00:10:46,840
once in a while, you don’t hear much about it.

184
00:10:46,879 –> 00:10:50,440
But but what really brought it to light is Elon

185
00:10:50,559 –> 00:10:53,919
Musk has mentioned it a few times. And uh, ope,

186
00:10:53,960 –> 00:10:57,080
EM’s in the chat. Aggie’s in the chat. All right,

187
00:10:57,720 –> 00:11:01,679
it’s a complete it’s a full house. Here we go. Oh,

188
00:11:02,120 –> 00:11:03,919
I thought you were in there earlier, Aggie, I already

189
00:11:03,919 –> 00:11:07,480
said hello to you and chat. Maybe I was just

190
00:11:07,519 –> 00:11:12,799
having hallucinations from the last show. But anyways, Paul early,

191
00:11:14,240 –> 00:11:19,120
over the years, he’s made all kinds of predictions, dire predictions,

192
00:11:21,399 –> 00:11:26,840
you know, the kind of predictions that I love the most, Yes,

193
00:11:27,519 –> 00:11:31,120
doom predictions. And over the years he’s also made additional

194
00:11:31,120 –> 00:11:34,559
forecasts in various publications, interviews, and speeches. And I’ve got

195
00:11:34,559 –> 00:11:37,840
a list of some of his most notable predictions, focusing

196
00:11:37,879 –> 00:11:41,960
primarily on those from The Population Bomb, his book best

197
00:11:42,000 –> 00:11:45,559
seller book. So let’s let’s just go right through it,

198
00:11:45,559 –> 00:11:47,519
and we’re just gonna who’s just gonna ease into it.

199
00:11:47,559 –> 00:11:50,159
I mean, it’s Sunday night, okay. We got a big,

200
00:11:50,879 –> 00:11:53,759
nasty work week ahead of us tomorrow, so we’ll discuss

201
00:11:53,840 –> 00:11:56,159
this like growing adults. I hope you have some kind

202
00:11:56,240 –> 00:12:00,799
of a beverage or something a nightcap, even if it’s

203
00:12:00,799 –> 00:12:03,960
a cup of tea. That’s it’s fine. Let’s talk about

204
00:12:04,000 –> 00:12:08,039
something intellectual. You just heard in The Lost Wanderer, which

205
00:12:08,039 –> 00:12:10,759
is about the most intellectual thing you’re gonna hear. I mean,

206
00:12:10,879 –> 00:12:13,159
my god, Jeff just goes so deep on all this stuff.

207
00:12:14,679 –> 00:12:17,919
But I’m just kind of like the I’m kind of

208
00:12:17,960 –> 00:12:20,879
like the castle fool, you know, bugs Bunny with his

209
00:12:20,960 –> 00:12:23,960
little fool’s had on going. Only a fool would attack

210
00:12:24,000 –> 00:12:29,360
the dragon, you know. So here we are predictions. Now,

211
00:12:29,399 –> 00:12:32,919
this is from actually the book The Population Bomb. Shame

212
00:12:32,960 –> 00:12:34,679
on me. I’ve not read this book because I just

213
00:12:34,759 –> 00:12:39,399
roll my eyes at crap like this. This is from

214
00:12:39,480 –> 00:12:42,360
nineteen sixty eight. Okay, just put this from perspective. I

215
00:12:42,480 –> 00:12:46,320
was three years old when this thing came out. And

216
00:12:46,360 –> 00:12:50,000
here’s his predictions. He said by the seventies there would

217
00:12:50,039 –> 00:12:54,720
be mass starvation. Irlik predicted that in nineteen seventies, hundreds

218
00:12:54,759 –> 00:12:56,879
of millions of people are going to starve to death

219
00:12:57,279 –> 00:13:00,559
in spite of any crash programs embarked up on. Now.

220
00:13:00,879 –> 00:13:04,039
He suggested that the battle of feed humanity was already

221
00:13:04,120 –> 00:13:07,360
lost and no emergency measures could prevent a substantial increase

222
00:13:07,360 –> 00:13:09,600
in the global death rate. This is he predicted us

223
00:13:09,600 –> 00:13:15,639
for the nineteen seventies, folks, the nineteen seventies doom. It’s

224
00:13:15,679 –> 00:13:23,000
twenty twenty five. Another popular prediction he had. He said

225
00:13:23,240 –> 00:13:29,639
by nineteen eighties, sixty five million Americans would be starving.

226
00:13:30,360 –> 00:13:33,080
He forecasted that sixty five million Americans would die of

227
00:13:33,120 –> 00:13:36,679
starvation between nineteen eighty and nineteen eighty nine due to

228
00:13:36,759 –> 00:13:41,840
food shortages caused by overpopulation. I don’t remember that I

229
00:13:41,879 –> 00:13:45,879
was alive that whole time. I will admit this does

230
00:13:45,960 –> 00:13:48,120
go back to the whole you know, music scene that

231
00:13:48,279 –> 00:13:52,519
most of the eighties is an absolute haze because I

232
00:13:52,600 –> 00:13:54,919
was on stage most of the eighties. I was either

233
00:13:55,000 –> 00:13:56,799
working my butt off on stage, and at the end

234
00:13:56,799 –> 00:13:59,519
of the eighties, I got married and that came to

235
00:13:59,559 –> 00:14:01,720
a close few years after that. But that’s fine. I

236
00:14:01,799 –> 00:14:04,000
was good with that. I still toured, I still did

237
00:14:04,039 –> 00:14:05,879
all that stuff up to like two thousand and three.

238
00:14:05,919 –> 00:14:09,320
But that’s fine. Anyways. Eighty to eighty nine, he said,

239
00:14:09,360 –> 00:14:12,639
we would all die. Sixty five million Americans to die

240
00:14:12,639 –> 00:14:17,639
of starvation between nineteen eighty and eighty nine. Then, he said,

241
00:14:18,440 –> 00:14:21,960
Earlick projected that the US population would drop to twenty

242
00:14:22,000 –> 00:14:25,639
two point six million by nineteen ninety nine as a

243
00:14:25,679 –> 00:14:31,600
result of famine and societal collapse. Nineteen ninety nine, tonight,

244
00:14:31,600 –> 00:14:34,639
we are going to party. US population would declined to

245
00:14:34,679 –> 00:14:40,320
twenty two point six million. I’m seeing a trend here, sir,

246
00:14:40,440 –> 00:14:44,879
mister Earlick. I’m seeing a trend. Paul, I don’t remember

247
00:14:44,919 –> 00:14:48,399
any of this really actually happening. The fourth prediction he

248
00:14:48,440 –> 00:14:51,440
made was England’s disappearance by the year two thousand. Two

249
00:14:51,480 –> 00:14:53,799
thousand was such a great date to predict things back

250
00:14:53,840 –> 00:14:56,440
in the seventies and sixties, right, because most people are

251
00:14:56,440 –> 00:15:01,440
going to be dead by two thousand. In a nineteen

252
00:15:01,519 –> 00:15:04,919
sixty nine statement to Britain’s Institute of Biology, he said,

253
00:15:04,960 –> 00:15:07,840
if I were a gambler, I would take even money

254
00:15:07,840 –> 00:15:10,480
that England will not exist by the year two thousand,

255
00:15:10,840 –> 00:15:14,639
implying environmental and population pressure would render it uninhabitable. Well,

256
00:15:14,919 –> 00:15:19,159
he was off by twenty five years, because England is disappearing,

257
00:15:19,600 –> 00:15:24,720
but it’s not because of starvation. It is a societal thing.

258
00:15:24,799 –> 00:15:31,679
But we’ll get into that someday, not today. Number five,

259
00:15:33,559 –> 00:15:36,879
in a nineteen sixty seven New Scientist article reprinted in

260
00:15:36,919 –> 00:15:39,759
The Washington Post in nineteen sixty eight. That is nineteen

261
00:15:39,799 –> 00:15:43,840
sixty eight, folks early predicted that somewhere between seventy and

262
00:15:43,919 –> 00:15:49,080
nineteen eighty five the world will undergo vast famines with

263
00:15:49,360 –> 00:15:59,039
hundreds of millions dying, regardless of any internsons. Oh my gosh,

264
00:15:59,320 –> 00:16:01,679
just yes, going to hit that putting so many tasers.

265
00:16:02,799 –> 00:16:05,399
Can you feel it? I can feel it. He was wrong.

266
00:16:09,399 –> 00:16:14,720
Number six India’s inevitable collapse. He wrote the population bomb.

267
00:16:14,759 –> 00:16:18,399
I don’t see how India could possibly feed two hundred

268
00:16:18,519 –> 00:16:22,200
million more people by nineteen eighty, suggesting India was doomed

269
00:16:22,360 –> 00:16:28,080
to catastrophic famine collapse. Instead, they became the cyber scam

270
00:16:28,120 –> 00:16:32,519
capital of the planet. Look at them, go good job,

271
00:16:32,639 –> 00:16:39,039
India runs Number seven. End of civilization in fifteen years. Oh,

272
00:16:39,120 –> 00:16:41,960
I love this. This is my This is my favorite.

273
00:16:42,000 –> 00:16:44,919
Speaker 6: Right here Byron Brimstone, coming down from the sky, rivers

274
00:16:44,919 –> 00:16:46,279
and seas boiling, forty.

275
00:16:46,120 –> 00:16:49,279
Speaker 8: Years of darkness, earthquakes, volcanoes a day, rising.

276
00:16:48,960 –> 00:16:53,679
Speaker 2: From the green, human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together, massistaria,

277
00:16:53,960 –> 00:16:59,200
and of civilization in fifteen years. In nineteen seventy he

278
00:16:59,279 –> 00:17:02,440
warned it some time in the next fifteen years, the

279
00:17:02,639 –> 00:17:06,440
and will come meeting an utter breakdown of the capacity

280
00:17:06,480 –> 00:17:10,920
of the planet to support humanity. And instead, in nineteen

281
00:17:10,960 –> 00:17:15,160
eighty five, we had hair bands, baby, We grew our

282
00:17:15,200 –> 00:17:18,079
hair out. We were spraying hairspray into the ozone layer.

283
00:17:18,319 –> 00:17:20,400
We even cut a big hole in the ozone to

284
00:17:20,519 –> 00:17:24,680
let all that beautiful space in He was wrong again.

285
00:17:27,519 –> 00:17:31,400
Oh I love these predictions, these predictions. Uh Space nineteen

286
00:17:31,480 –> 00:17:35,000
ninety nine, No nowmmm my brother, my brother in Christ.

287
00:17:35,440 –> 00:17:38,920
Space nineteen ninety nine was epic. I loved Space nineteen

288
00:17:38,960 –> 00:17:41,400
ninety nine, especially Mayra. You know, as you could change

289
00:17:41,400 –> 00:17:44,079
into anything. Think about being married to a woman that

290
00:17:44,079 –> 00:17:51,759
could change into anything, anything, kinky. Anyways, back to the show.

291
00:17:52,359 –> 00:17:56,680
Number eight, marine life extinction by nineteen eighty. During an

292
00:17:56,720 –> 00:18:01,200
Earth Day speech in nineteen seventy, earliklaimed, in ten years,

293
00:18:01,279 –> 00:18:04,079
all important animal life in the sea will be extinct,

294
00:18:04,440 –> 00:18:08,119
all going to die. Large areas of coastline will have

295
00:18:08,160 –> 00:18:12,160
to be evacuated because of the stretch of dead fish. Well,

296
00:18:12,240 –> 00:18:13,839
little did he know that it would take till what

297
00:18:14,240 –> 00:18:16,759
twenty twenty four, twenty twenty three, when we built all

298
00:18:16,799 –> 00:18:19,960
those giant fans all along the coast and they were

299
00:18:20,039 –> 00:18:24,839
killing all the whales. That’s what did it. She turned

300
00:18:24,839 –> 00:18:31,839
into a wood chopper wrecks. Oh my god. Okay. Number

301
00:18:31,880 –> 00:18:36,000
nine small disasters killing two hundred thousand people in nineteen

302
00:18:36,079 –> 00:18:38,880
seventy three. In nineteen seventy he predicted that air pollution

303
00:18:38,920 –> 00:18:42,000
would cause a small master in New York and Los

304
00:18:42,000 –> 00:18:45,880
Angeles in nineteen seventy three, killing two hundred thousand Americans.

305
00:18:45,880 –> 00:18:51,640
Now that can either be proven or not proven. Yeah, Raptor,

306
00:18:51,680 –> 00:18:54,039
I believe that Actresses’s wife can change into anything on

307
00:18:54,079 –> 00:18:59,680
a die. You can’t really, I mean, this could be

308
00:18:59,759 –> 00:19:03,319
all most proven. Okay, the smog in Los Angeles and

309
00:19:03,359 –> 00:19:07,559
New York. It probably helped quite a few people die.

310
00:19:07,720 –> 00:19:10,359
People who are already coughing up blood and everything. Smog

311
00:19:10,400 –> 00:19:13,039
can’t be good for you. Okay, that one will give

312
00:19:13,160 –> 00:19:16,680
him a could really have come true. Maybe it did

313
00:19:16,720 –> 00:19:20,079
come true. It’s hard to tell anyways. Number ten reduced

314
00:19:20,240 –> 00:19:24,519
a life expectancy due to DDT. In May nineteen seventy

315
00:19:24,559 –> 00:19:28,119
issue of autubon erliqu Warren that DDT and other chlorinated

316
00:19:28,160 –> 00:19:32,279
hydrocarbons may have substantially reduced the life expectancy of people

317
00:19:32,319 –> 00:19:35,839
born since nineteen forty five, estimating that Americans born is

318
00:19:35,880 –> 00:19:39,480
since nineteen forty six had life expectancy of only forty

319
00:19:39,599 –> 00:19:42,359
nine years, dropping to forty two by the nineteen eighty

320
00:19:42,400 –> 00:19:47,319
if the trend continues. He’s wrong again. Oh this is

321
00:19:47,359 –> 00:19:50,160
my favorite. I love I remember I remember studying this

322
00:19:50,279 –> 00:19:54,119
in school. This was big news. Oil depletion by the

323
00:19:54,240 –> 00:19:58,519
year two thousand. In nineteen seventy four, Erlic and his

324
00:19:58,559 –> 00:20:00,880
wife predicted that within the next quarter of a century,

325
00:20:00,920 –> 00:20:03,839
man kind will be looking elsewhere than in oil wells

326
00:20:03,839 –> 00:20:07,160
for its main source of energy, suggesting oil reserves would

327
00:20:07,160 –> 00:20:10,359
be depleted by around two thousand, sparking a frantic search

328
00:20:10,400 –> 00:20:13,680
for alternatives. And then twelve, this is a great one,

329
00:20:13,920 –> 00:20:16,720
water rationing in the US by nineteen seventy four. He

330
00:20:16,759 –> 00:20:20,279
predicted that the US would implement water rationing by nineteen

331
00:20:20,400 –> 00:20:25,240
seventy four due to resources scarcity driven by population growth.

332
00:20:25,559 –> 00:20:30,519
And now none of these none, zero zelch he’s batting zero.

333
00:20:31,160 –> 00:20:33,559
I remember being in school and some of these things

334
00:20:33,559 –> 00:20:36,680
coming out as well. Experts predict that you’ll be coughing

335
00:20:36,759 –> 00:20:39,920
up blood by the year nineteen eighty. You know, then

336
00:20:40,039 –> 00:20:42,640
little kids are screaming, yelling, wanting their mommies. You know,

337
00:20:42,680 –> 00:20:45,880
it’s chaos. It was horrible. Eighty came and went, eighty five,

338
00:20:45,920 –> 00:20:48,000
came and went, ninety, came and went two thousand, came

339
00:20:48,039 –> 00:20:52,079
in at twenty twenty, came and went it’s twenty twenty five.

340
00:20:52,680 –> 00:20:59,480
He’s batting zero. Who’s listening to this guy anymore? A

341
00:20:59,519 –> 00:21:05,200
lot of people are he’s got recent predictions. In nineteen

342
00:21:05,279 –> 00:21:08,319
seventy five, Earli forecasted that since more than nine tenths

343
00:21:08,359 –> 00:21:10,480
of the original tropical rainforce will be removed in most

344
00:21:10,480 –> 00:21:12,319
areas for the next thirty years or so, it is

345
00:21:12,440 –> 00:21:15,480
expected that half of the organism or organisms in these

346
00:21:15,519 –> 00:21:18,839
areas will vanish with it. They’re still harping on the rainforest.

347
00:21:18,839 –> 00:21:20,799
Guess what, guys, They’ve cut a lot of it down,

348
00:21:20,799 –> 00:21:22,359
and guess what it did. Just like in the Upper

349
00:21:22,359 –> 00:21:32,319
Peninsula in Michigan, it grew back. Civilization said in twenty

350
00:21:32,359 –> 00:21:35,119
eight Oh, here we go. In a twenty eighteen Guardian interview, Now,

351
00:21:35,119 –> 00:21:38,359
this guy’s still rambling on. He’s still going about. In

352
00:21:38,400 –> 00:21:41,359
a twenty eighteen Guardian interview, he stated that a shattering

353
00:21:41,400 –> 00:21:44,359
collapse of civilization is a near certainty in the next

354
00:21:44,400 –> 00:21:49,079
few decades due to overpopulation, over consumption, and environmental destruction. Okay,

355
00:21:49,079 –> 00:21:52,119
he’s still going on. He’s been wrong. This guy has

356
00:21:52,160 –> 00:21:58,119
been absolutely wrong since nineteen sixty eight. Nineteen sixty eight,

357
00:21:58,160 –> 00:22:01,960
he was wrong twenty eighteen, twenty eighteen, seven years ago.

358
00:22:02,880 –> 00:22:06,279
He’s still out there saying, Oh, it’s coming, it’s coming,

359
00:22:07,680 –> 00:22:10,039
and this is recent twenty twenty three. In a twenty

360
00:22:10,119 –> 00:22:14,920
twenty three sixty minute appearance alongside colleague Anthony Barnovski, Erlok

361
00:22:14,960 –> 00:22:17,440
supported the idea that if current extinction rates of the

362
00:22:17,440 –> 00:22:21,759
threatened species continued, a sixth mass extinction could occur within

363
00:22:21,839 –> 00:22:24,759
three to twenty two centuries. Three to twenty two centuries.

364
00:22:26,960 –> 00:22:31,200
How do you predict twenty two centuries with three quarters

365
00:22:31,200 –> 00:22:34,319
of what you think ought to be there disappearing? Those

366
00:22:34,359 –> 00:22:40,240
are his words. Erlk’s predictions were rooted in a neo

367
00:22:40,480 –> 00:22:45,160
Malthusian view that population growth would outstrip resources, leading to

368
00:22:45,200 –> 00:22:48,559
catastrophic consequences. Many of these forecasts, of course, did not

369
00:22:48,640 –> 00:22:54,640
materialize as predicted. The Green Revolution increased agricultural productivity, averting

370
00:22:54,640 –> 00:22:58,759
the widespread famincy foresaw. Global population grew from three point

371
00:22:58,759 –> 00:23:01,200
five billion in nineteen six sixty eight to over eight

372
00:23:01,480 –> 00:23:04,920
billion today, Yet starvation deaths have not reached the scales

373
00:23:04,920 –> 00:23:10,200
he anticipated. Although you know, regional famines have always have,

374
00:23:10,319 –> 00:23:14,319
and always will and are occurring right now. England and

375
00:23:14,400 –> 00:23:17,079
India persist. The US population is over three hundred and

376
00:23:17,079 –> 00:23:19,359
thirty million. Me Marine life, while under pressure, has not

377
00:23:19,480 –> 00:23:24,680
vanished as he claimed, innovations and resource extractions, energy efficiency

378
00:23:24,680 –> 00:23:29,000
and pollution control contradicted his resource depletion environmental collapse scenarios.

379
00:23:29,640 –> 00:23:35,319
Man figured it out all of these predictions were live.

380
00:23:35,640 –> 00:23:45,400
People are still listening to this over educated bonehead. But

381
00:23:45,519 –> 00:23:53,880
let’s just say theoretically, theoretically, my friends, that there are

382
00:23:53,920 –> 00:23:57,359
too many people on the planet. Now, I’m going to

383
00:23:57,400 –> 00:24:01,319
be upfront with you on this whole thinking on all

384
00:24:01,359 –> 00:24:05,000
of this logic. Okay, I feel there are too many

385
00:24:05,039 –> 00:24:09,640
people on the planet, not because the planet’s going to

386
00:24:10,039 –> 00:24:13,039
you know, run out of resources and there’s gonna be masters,

387
00:24:12,720 –> 00:24:15,200
and I just don’t care for that many people. It

388
00:24:15,240 –> 00:24:17,519
seems like everywhere you go there’s just people stinking up

389
00:24:17,559 –> 00:24:21,440
the joint. Everything has become a people factory. When you

390
00:24:21,480 –> 00:24:23,359
go to any kind of event, when you go to

391
00:24:23,440 –> 00:24:27,000
any kind of sight seeing, any kind of of a

392
00:24:28,880 –> 00:24:31,519
someplace that you know, a tourist thing, you go, you

393
00:24:31,559 –> 00:24:34,559
know somewhere that that’s a touristy thing, it’s like a

394
00:24:34,599 –> 00:24:38,680
people factory. Okay, kitchen kitsching, Okay, you’re next, your next,

395
00:24:38,680 –> 00:24:40,559
your next, your next, move along, move al on, move along.

396
00:24:41,079 –> 00:24:44,480
There’s no taking your time and enjoying things like the

397
00:24:44,480 –> 00:24:49,480
Grand Canyon, or or you know, the Ryman Auditorium in Nashville,

398
00:24:49,759 –> 00:24:53,200
or the Daytona Beach in Florida. It’s just all a

399
00:24:53,240 –> 00:24:57,839
people factory. Now, would I be totally devastator to fat

400
00:24:57,839 –> 00:25:01,440
I don’t know, five billion of the billion disappeared. Maybe

401
00:25:01,480 –> 00:25:05,920
a little bit. No, I really would be. I’m not

402
00:25:05,920 –> 00:25:10,279
gonna kid you. But here’s the thing. Global population continues

403
00:25:10,319 –> 00:25:13,960
to grow, though the rate of the growth has been

404
00:25:14,079 –> 00:25:19,599
slowing in recent decades. The world’s population is not currently

405
00:25:19,599 –> 00:25:21,720
in decline. Now some people would say it is, but

406
00:25:21,920 –> 00:25:25,599
there are places that it is. According to estimates from

407
00:25:25,640 –> 00:25:29,519
organizations like the UN, world population surpassed eight billion in

408
00:25:29,599 –> 00:25:33,400
November twenty twenty two and is projected to keep increasing potential,

409
00:25:33,519 –> 00:25:36,200
reaching or potentially reaching around eight point five billion by

410
00:25:36,240 –> 00:25:39,319
twenty thirty nine point seven billion by twenty fifty, before

411
00:25:39,359 –> 00:25:44,000
possibly stabilizing or declining in later centuries. The UN a

412
00:25:44,039 –> 00:25:50,000
lot of the quote experts unquote are now five billion

413
00:25:50,079 –> 00:25:53,839
joff with a B, not MB. That’d be a little

414
00:25:53,880 –> 00:25:55,880
more tricky, but five million, Yeah, we can get rid

415
00:25:55,920 –> 00:26:00,319
of some of those, like right now, nobody’d miss them. Anyways.

416
00:26:01,519 –> 00:26:05,680
They’re saying that the stabilization. The stagnation, let’s call it

417
00:26:05,680 –> 00:26:11,640
the stagnation of population, occurs around twenty seventy. I pose

418
00:26:11,720 –> 00:26:16,440
to you, my friends, that that is a very optimistic number.

419
00:26:17,559 –> 00:26:20,279
I pose to you that by twenty fifty we are

420
00:26:20,319 –> 00:26:23,720
already going to be in the collapse. I pose to

421
00:26:23,759 –> 00:26:27,839
you that by twenty thirty twenty thirty five, we could

422
00:26:27,960 –> 00:26:34,440
very well be seeing the collapse of global population, at

423
00:26:34,519 –> 00:26:37,960
least the stagnation. Of course, I’m no expert. I could

424
00:26:38,000 –> 00:26:42,519
be wrong, but we’re crap shooting right now, folks. We

425
00:26:42,599 –> 00:26:46,559
are crap shooting with the population of mankind, and if

426
00:26:46,599 –> 00:26:49,519
we are not careful, we could see a population reduction

427
00:26:51,680 –> 00:26:58,079
that could rival the Black Plague of Europe per you know,

428
00:26:58,119 –> 00:27:03,279
percentage wise. Now right now, as it stands, right now,

429
00:27:03,559 –> 00:27:07,759
we are still increasing in population. The growth isn’t uniform though.

430
00:27:08,480 –> 00:27:11,039
There are regions like parts of Europe and East Asia

431
00:27:11,079 –> 00:27:14,000
that are seeing population declines due to low birth rates

432
00:27:14,519 –> 00:27:18,559
and combined with aging populations, while others like Sub Saharan

433
00:27:18,640 –> 00:27:22,720
Africa are still experienced significant increases. Of course, al Gore

434
00:27:23,200 –> 00:27:24,759
and he doesn’t like to talk about this. Al Gore

435
00:27:24,799 –> 00:27:29,000
would like to flood a sub Saharan Africa with you know,

436
00:27:29,079 –> 00:27:32,480
abortion clinics and take care of that little problem. Because

437
00:27:32,480 –> 00:27:36,440
he is a population decline cheerleader. He wants population decline.

438
00:27:36,599 –> 00:27:38,000
I we’re going to talk about that too. This is

439
00:27:38,000 –> 00:27:39,799
the show might take over now, I don’t really care.

440
00:27:39,839 –> 00:27:42,440
I’m just going to go till I’m done. Factors like

441
00:27:42,480 –> 00:27:45,640
fertility rates, health care improvements, and economic conditions also play

442
00:27:45,640 –> 00:27:49,200
a role. So while the overall trend is still upward globally,

443
00:27:49,640 –> 00:27:53,160
the picture buries a lot depending on where you are now,

444
00:27:53,200 –> 00:27:57,039
several countries are experiencing population declines, with some of the

445
00:27:57,039 –> 00:28:01,400
most notable examples including Ukraine, Japan, Italy, Bulgaria facing challenges

446
00:28:01,480 –> 00:28:05,440
like war, aging populations, and political instability. Now here’s a deep,

447
00:28:05,480 –> 00:28:09,319
more detailed look. Okay, let’s look at some of these factors.

448
00:28:09,920 –> 00:28:10,119
Speaker 4: East.

449
00:28:10,240 –> 00:28:13,680
Speaker 2: Let’s look at Eastern Europe. Number one, Eastern Europe Bulgaria.

450
00:28:13,839 –> 00:28:17,119
Bulgaria’s projected to see a significant decline in population between

451
00:28:17,119 –> 00:28:20,359
twenty twenty and twenty fifty, and the Ukraine, of course,

452
00:28:20,440 –> 00:28:23,960
everybody’s dying, experiencing a large population decline due to war.

453
00:28:24,519 –> 00:28:28,319
Letiuuania projected to see a significant decline in population between

454
00:28:28,319 –> 00:28:31,799
twenty twenty and twenty fifty. Latvia projected to see the

455
00:28:31,839 –> 00:28:35,839
same significant decline between twenty twenty and twenty fifty. Serbia

456
00:28:37,279 –> 00:28:41,400
joins that list. Between twenty twenty and twenty fifty, Bosnia

457
00:28:42,079 –> 00:28:54,240
and Herzegovina projected to see a significant decline. Same so Croatia, Moldova, Romania, Albania, Estonia, Hungary, Poland.

458
00:28:54,920 –> 00:29:00,960
All of these Eastern European nations are heading for a

459
00:29:01,039 –> 00:29:05,039
decline as we speak between twenty twenty and twenty fifty,

460
00:29:05,240 –> 00:29:09,519
heading for a population decline. In other words, whether it

461
00:29:09,519 –> 00:29:12,519
be war, whether it be just an aging population, whether

462
00:29:12,519 –> 00:29:16,440
it be people aren’t giving birth, whatever, they are already

463
00:29:16,480 –> 00:29:20,960
in decline. They are there, they are there right now.

464
00:29:23,440 –> 00:29:28,359
They already have the problem. Let’s look at Asia. Japan

465
00:29:28,440 –> 00:29:31,240
has been facing a declining population doing an aging population

466
00:29:31,400 –> 00:29:35,720
and low birth rates. China, while still a large population,

467
00:29:35,839 –> 00:29:39,319
China’s growth has slowed and is projected to experience a

468
00:29:39,359 –> 00:29:42,200
decline in the coming decades. Now with China, it’s really

469
00:29:42,200 –> 00:29:46,039
crazy because here’s the problem. By law, you are only

470
00:29:46,240 –> 00:29:53,079
able to have one baby, one baby. That’s it. Well,

471
00:29:54,359 –> 00:29:56,200
in China, it’s an honor to have a baby’s son

472
00:29:56,559 –> 00:29:59,039
so they were killing all of the baby girls in

473
00:29:59,079 –> 00:30:03,440
the womb. They’re boarding them, killing them as they were born. Whatever.

474
00:30:04,559 –> 00:30:06,480
So now in China, and they don’t like to talk

475
00:30:06,519 –> 00:30:08,599
about this, but it’s happening. They got all of these

476
00:30:08,640 –> 00:30:15,480
young Chinese boys and no girls. China has a massive problem.

477
00:30:15,759 –> 00:30:19,440
China right now is going the other way. They’re paying

478
00:30:19,559 –> 00:30:22,200
people to start families. But the problem is is young

479
00:30:22,279 –> 00:30:24,640
Chinese people don’t want to get married, they don’t want

480
00:30:24,680 –> 00:30:27,079
to start families, they don’t want to bother with it

481
00:30:27,119 –> 00:30:31,839
because they’ve been told by the same government to having

482
00:30:31,839 –> 00:30:35,920
babies is destroying China. China is going to be a

483
00:30:36,039 –> 00:30:45,279
victim of their own stupidity. Now the Korea is North Korea,

484
00:30:45,359 –> 00:30:49,839
South Korea. They’ve got problems too, exactly. China did change

485
00:30:49,880 –> 00:30:52,599
the law rafter, but it didn’t work because they’ve already

486
00:30:53,680 –> 00:30:57,400
drilled into these kids’ heads the babies are bad. Babies

487
00:30:57,400 –> 00:30:59,359
are bad, and Clay don’t know babies. You’re killing the

488
00:30:59,359 –> 00:31:03,519
world in glue. And we’ll get to that here in

489
00:31:03,559 –> 00:31:07,000
the USA in a bit. In Europe, Italy experienced is

490
00:31:07,039 –> 00:31:09,880
experiencing a population decline. Greece is projected to see a

491
00:31:09,880 –> 00:31:13,359
significant decline in population by twenty twenty and twenty fifty. Now,

492
00:31:13,400 –> 00:31:16,920
you remember in Greece. In Greece, the mayor suggestion used

493
00:31:16,960 –> 00:31:19,000
to be the retirement age in Greece was sixty two.

494
00:31:19,440 –> 00:31:21,839
A few years back, they said, we can’t do this anymore.

495
00:31:22,119 –> 00:31:24,480
We’re raising the population to sixty four. Do you remember

496
00:31:24,519 –> 00:31:29,640
what happened? Riots in the street, people lost their collective

497
00:31:29,720 –> 00:31:34,440
do doo? Okay, just for the two year popular Now

498
00:31:34,519 –> 00:31:37,079
up here, you know, in the United States, that’s sixty five,

499
00:31:37,680 –> 00:31:40,559
and they’re already pushing to have sixty seven, sixty eight.

500
00:31:40,640 –> 00:31:44,599
Some people are pushing to seventy because they can see

501
00:31:44,640 –> 00:31:47,960
the riding on the wall already. Now we’re gonna get

502
00:31:48,000 –> 00:31:51,839
further into that in just a little bit. Other nations.

503
00:31:51,920 –> 00:31:55,279
Venezuela is facing a population decline due to political instability.

504
00:31:55,920 –> 00:31:58,880
Georgia projected to see a significant decline twenty twenty and

505
00:31:58,920 –> 00:32:01,759
twenty fifty, Portugal same between twenty and twenty fifty as

506
00:32:01,799 –> 00:32:09,240
a decline, Slavic Republic, same, North Macedonia same. All these

507
00:32:09,279 –> 00:32:13,000
people places I’m mentioning right now are gonna see significant

508
00:32:13,000 –> 00:32:16,599
declines in population between twenty twenty and twenty fifty. North

509
00:32:16,680 –> 00:32:21,880
Macedonia Cuba, jump down to Saint Martin Island experience in

510
00:32:21,960 –> 00:32:26,279
declining population. Already, Cook Island experiencing declining population, Marshall Islands,

511
00:32:26,519 –> 00:32:35,640
North Mariana Islands all experiencing significant decline and population. What

512
00:32:35,720 –> 00:32:40,799
about the United States, Let’s talk about that. Let’s reach

513
00:32:40,880 –> 00:32:42,480
the bottom of the hour. When we come back, we’re

514
00:32:42,480 –> 00:32:45,000
gonna jump into the US. What it means for us,

515
00:32:45,319 –> 00:32:47,759
What it means for the good old United States of America.

516
00:32:48,519 –> 00:32:52,240
What in God’s name have we done? Don’t go anywhere.

this is way too deep for Sunday Night, but you

561
00:35:41,000 –> 00:35:43,719
know what it needs to be said. It needs to

562
00:35:43,760 –> 00:35:46,639
be said we have been talking about and welcome back

563
00:35:46,639 –> 00:35:49,199
to Sunday Night with Allan Ray. I am your host, Hellanray.

564
00:35:49,360 –> 00:35:51,440
I’m gonna try something new tonight. I’m actually gonna try

565
00:35:51,480 –> 00:35:54,440
to share my screen. This may go good, may collapse

566
00:35:54,480 –> 00:35:57,280
the whole show. We might just just dive into nothing

567
00:35:57,320 –> 00:36:03,800
this here, but we’re gonna try it. Okay, folks, privacy here,

568
00:36:04,000 –> 00:36:06,199
what’s a privacy year? Get out of here with that crap?

569
00:36:07,639 –> 00:36:11,519
Uh turn on prediction. Get out of here. I’m gonna

570
00:36:11,559 –> 00:36:14,400
try to share something with you folks in a bit. Anyways,

571
00:36:14,480 –> 00:36:17,400
let’s talk about the United States. We’ve been talking about

572
00:36:17,400 –> 00:36:22,519
all over the planet planetary population reduction, and we really

573
00:36:22,519 –> 00:36:25,519
haven’t talked about why it may not go as well

574
00:36:25,559 –> 00:36:29,760
as people think it will. What about the US? While

575
00:36:29,800 –> 00:36:34,559
the US population is currently growing, projections suggest that it

576
00:36:34,599 –> 00:36:37,280
will peak in the twenty seventies and then decline, the

577
00:36:37,360 –> 00:36:44,239
experts say. The experts say that we will peak in

578
00:36:44,280 –> 00:36:50,639
the twenty seventies and then start decline. I have a

579
00:36:50,920 –> 00:36:54,440
will think about it, with factors like declining birth rates

580
00:36:54,440 –> 00:36:57,559
and potential change in immigration playing a key role. Here’s

581
00:36:57,559 –> 00:36:59,639
a more detail breakdown the current growth. Right now, the

582
00:37:00,000 –> 00:37:02,280
population has been growing, with the most recent data showing

583
00:37:02,320 –> 00:37:05,760
a one percent increase its or twenty twenty three, reaching

584
00:37:05,760 –> 00:37:09,079
three hundred and forty point one million. Now, projections from

585
00:37:09,119 –> 00:37:11,280
the US CINSUS Bureau indicate that the population will likely

586
00:37:11,320 –> 00:37:14,159
peak in twenty seventy at around three hundred and seventy million,

587
00:37:14,159 –> 00:37:18,079
before declining in the following decades. Now, some of the

588
00:37:18,079 –> 00:37:20,679
things that are pushing this, and they’re not going to

589
00:37:20,719 –> 00:37:24,360
give you all of the details I am going to

590
00:37:26,159 –> 00:37:30,199
I’m going to Declining birth rates are one of the

591
00:37:30,199 –> 00:37:34,519
influential factors. The total fertility rate, births per woman and

592
00:37:34,599 –> 00:37:39,119
birth per woman is a very big thing in in China. Actually,

593
00:37:39,360 –> 00:37:42,079
what is it. I think it’s in it’s my art

594
00:37:42,239 –> 00:37:45,280
or North Korea, one of them. It’s down to like

595
00:37:45,440 –> 00:37:50,159
zero point nine, so point nine per woman. That is

596
00:37:50,199 –> 00:37:56,719
a population implosion right there, already starting to happen. The

597
00:37:56,800 –> 00:38:00,400
total fertility rate is projected to remain below the population

598
00:38:00,519 –> 00:38:03,679
replacement level of two point one. This is what that

599
00:38:03,719 –> 00:38:06,559
means in order to sustain three hundred and forty million

600
00:38:06,599 –> 00:38:15,760
people that we have right now. Every woman of birthing age,

601
00:38:16,119 –> 00:38:23,920
every woman, one man of birthing age average has two

602
00:38:23,960 –> 00:38:26,039
point one babies. Now they’re not gonna have a point

603
00:38:26,039 –> 00:38:28,719
one baby. You know, that’s ridiculous. It’s just that means, like,

604
00:38:28,840 –> 00:38:31,760
you know, nine women have two babies, one has three.

605
00:38:33,480 –> 00:38:38,440
So we’re already under the replacement level, meaning each generation

606
00:38:38,519 –> 00:38:44,840
will not fully replace itself. Combine this with an aging population. Now,

607
00:38:44,880 –> 00:38:47,639
the baby boomer generation is aging and the share of

608
00:38:47,679 –> 00:38:50,800
the population over sixty five is increasing, leading to a

609
00:38:50,840 –> 00:38:53,519
shift in the age structure. And we’ll talk about this

610
00:38:53,559 –> 00:38:56,760
in the workplace in just a minute. Immigration plays a

611
00:38:56,760 –> 00:38:59,360
crucial role in the population growth, and changes in immigration

612
00:38:59,440 –> 00:39:03,920
policies are patterns could impact the projected decline. Oh wait

613
00:39:03,920 –> 00:39:06,639
a minute, what what was that again? Immigration plays a

614
00:39:06,639 –> 00:39:09,679
crucial role in population growth, and changes in immigration policies

615
00:39:10,639 –> 00:39:13,360
or patterns could impact the projected decline. Put that at

616
00:39:13,360 –> 00:39:16,000
the back of your mind. Put that in the back

617
00:39:16,039 –> 00:39:22,199
of your head. Okay, I know Japan’s had that, Raptor,

618
00:39:22,280 –> 00:39:24,480
Japan’s had that point nine, but South Korea is the

619
00:39:24,480 –> 00:39:26,960
other one. I think South Korea is even lower. It’s

620
00:39:27,039 –> 00:39:29,960
zero point eight or something. It’s insane. They are in

621
00:39:30,039 –> 00:39:32,480
free fall right now. Thanks for bringing that up, jeff

622
00:39:32,559 –> 00:39:33,360
our raptor.

623
00:39:35,199 –> 00:39:35,280
Speaker 7: So.

624
00:39:35,360 –> 00:39:40,000
Speaker 2: Anyways, a population collapse is where birth rates plummet and

625
00:39:40,039 –> 00:39:43,800
a population strengths dramatically, and it can have some serious

626
00:39:43,880 –> 00:39:47,480
ripple effects. First off, you’d see an aging population with

627
00:39:47,559 –> 00:39:51,440
fewer young people to support them. Think fewer workers paying

628
00:39:51,480 –> 00:39:57,079
into a system like social security or health care or whatever.

629
00:40:00,599 –> 00:40:03,519
Economics could stall out as a labor shortage hits industries hard,

630
00:40:03,519 –> 00:40:07,440
from manufacturing to tech. Japan is already wrestling with this,

631
00:40:07,519 –> 00:40:14,360
as a Raptor just pointed out in chat. Rex said, Hey,

632
00:40:14,400 –> 00:40:16,719
he added to the population over when he was over there,

633
00:40:16,760 –> 00:40:19,079
so it’s not his fault. Rex, You’re a hero. You

634
00:40:19,119 –> 00:40:22,480
did your part. Japan’s already wrestling with this, so we’re

635
00:40:22,480 –> 00:40:25,400
seeing their workforce is shrinking and they’re leaning on automation

636
00:40:25,519 –> 00:40:29,039
and immigration tweaks to cope. But it’s a slow grind.

637
00:40:29,280 –> 00:40:34,800
It’s a very slow pattern. Now there’s some people that

638
00:40:34,880 –> 00:40:38,559
say this is not all doom. Fewer people could use

639
00:40:38,559 –> 00:40:41,760
pressure on resources like water, food, and energy, and maybe

640
00:40:41,760 –> 00:40:44,280
even given the environment a bit of a breather. But

641
00:40:44,400 –> 00:40:49,000
the transition to a lower population, I guarantee you is

642
00:40:49,039 –> 00:40:54,719
going to be brutal. We are not ready for it, folks,

643
00:40:55,079 –> 00:41:00,719
We’re not ready for it. Rural areas could turn into

644
00:41:00,719 –> 00:41:03,679
ghost towns as people migrate to cities or other countries,

645
00:41:03,760 –> 00:41:10,599
leaving behind crumbling infrastructure and cultural heritage. Psychologically, it could

646
00:41:10,639 –> 00:41:14,000
mess with a society’s sense of purpose or identity. Fewer

647
00:41:14,079 –> 00:41:17,960
kids mean less optimism about the future. Now, some economists

648
00:41:18,000 –> 00:41:20,800
like Charles Goodheart, have pointed out that declining populations can

649
00:41:20,840 –> 00:41:27,559
also tank consumer demands, dragging down innovations and investments. As

650
00:41:27,559 –> 00:41:30,719
far as economic and social pressures declining population could be

651
00:41:30,760 –> 00:41:35,280
the labor shortages, strains on social security and healthcare systems,

652
00:41:35,320 –> 00:41:38,920
and potential economic challenges. Again, put that in the back

653
00:41:38,960 –> 00:41:40,360
of your mind. We’re going to talk about that here

654
00:41:40,360 –> 00:41:45,159
in just a second. The need for adaptation. Businesses and policies,

655
00:41:45,480 –> 00:41:50,000
policymakers need to adapt to a changing demographic landscape. We

656
00:41:50,280 –> 00:41:54,159
are seeing this right now. Washington, d C. Washington, d C.

657
00:41:54,960 –> 00:41:58,400
The swamp does not like to change. They are a

658
00:41:58,599 –> 00:42:03,159
money machine. They’re a money machine, and they don’t like

659
00:42:03,679 –> 00:42:09,119
having their claws slapped back out of the wealth, our wealth,

660
00:42:09,440 –> 00:42:13,119
our paychecks. They’re freaking out as we speak right now

661
00:42:13,159 –> 00:42:16,119
at this moment. They’ve got all the little minions out

662
00:42:16,159 –> 00:42:19,599
there in a panicked effort to make the whole United

663
00:42:19,639 –> 00:42:24,199
States try to believe that, oh my gosh, Washington is

664
00:42:24,239 –> 00:42:27,719
not young. But the government’s under attack, which means America’s underttack.

665
00:42:27,760 –> 00:42:33,039
We’re doomed. No, the bureaucracy’s under attack. And the funny

666
00:42:33,039 –> 00:42:35,199
thing about it is, I don’t see a lot of

667
00:42:35,239 –> 00:42:39,800
people believing it. I don’t see the grassroots outrage. You know,

668
00:42:39,920 –> 00:42:42,639
there was some grassroots outrage in twenty twenty, the summer

669
00:42:42,639 –> 00:42:45,440
of twenty twenty. Okay, they convinced some morons to get

670
00:42:45,440 –> 00:42:48,519
out there and actually protest. I’m not seeing at this time.

671
00:42:48,920 –> 00:42:51,599
I’m seeing the grassroots people go. Now, wait a minute,

672
00:42:51,599 –> 00:42:54,960
they’re doing the whole Dave Chappelle thing. Dave Chappelle talks

673
00:42:54,960 –> 00:42:57,639
about Donald Trump coming out and saying I know the

674
00:42:57,679 –> 00:43:00,960
system is rigged because I use this, and he goes, dog, yeah,

675
00:43:01,039 –> 00:43:05,039
what do you said? And all those same people are

676
00:43:05,039 –> 00:43:08,360
looking at, you know, say the government. It’s not corrupt.

677
00:43:08,559 –> 00:43:11,199
It’s not corrupt and not wasteful, and all the people

678
00:43:11,239 –> 00:43:14,000
that usually would you know, just stand up start protesting, go, yeah,

679
00:43:14,039 –> 00:43:18,320
you know, it really is wasteful and corrupt. We’ve been

680
00:43:18,480 –> 00:43:22,159
protesting about that for decades. What are you talking about?

681
00:43:26,880 –> 00:43:31,320
So how do we counteract to this decline? Policies are

682
00:43:31,360 –> 00:43:34,559
going to have to be made to support family and

683
00:43:34,679 –> 00:43:39,400
encourage higher birth rates. Hm, well, think about that for

684
00:43:39,440 –> 00:43:43,960
just a moment. Increased immigration. Uh oh uh oh. Some

685
00:43:44,199 –> 00:43:46,760
argue that increased immigration can help offset the effects of

686
00:43:46,760 –> 00:43:50,000
declining population, but this is a complex issue with various perspectives.

687
00:43:50,000 –> 00:43:52,639
Wait wait, wait, wait, wait, hold on, are you getting

688
00:43:52,679 –> 00:43:56,440
this picture? Are you getting this picture? What the white

689
00:43:56,599 –> 00:44:02,320
wide world of fortunes going on here. So you’re saying

690
00:44:02,440 –> 00:44:06,920
that experts, to offset this, we are going to have

691
00:44:07,000 –> 00:44:11,400
to bring a whole bunch of immigrants, illegal immigrants into

692
00:44:11,440 –> 00:44:15,519
this country under the radar and make them low wage

693
00:44:15,559 –> 00:44:21,440
slaves to feed our leviathan. But Donald Trump’s kicking them out.

694
00:44:22,519 –> 00:44:35,800
Oh no, all right, I say all this, Yeah, can’t.

695
00:44:35,840 –> 00:44:37,840
We could import millions of people every year. We did

696
00:44:37,880 –> 00:44:40,320
it for the last four years. You’re exactly right, politics junkie,

697
00:44:40,320 –> 00:44:44,639
You’re exactly right. We’ve been doing We did it starting

698
00:44:44,639 –> 00:44:48,440
with Obama’s second term. Obama’s first term, he was nicknamed

699
00:44:48,519 –> 00:44:52,760
the deporter in chief. Something changed. I know what changed.

700
00:44:53,639 –> 00:44:58,000
Agenda twenty thirty changed, The World Economic Forum changed, and

701
00:44:58,039 –> 00:45:00,760
they all put pressure on the United State to America.

702
00:45:01,760 –> 00:45:05,719
And this is documented to bring over two million illegal

703
00:45:05,800 –> 00:45:09,039
well two million immigrants. They just called it open border.

704
00:45:09,119 –> 00:45:13,159
Two million immigrants per year for the next twenty years.

705
00:45:14,280 –> 00:45:16,880
That’s what changed, and Obama did a flip Pop said yeah,

706
00:45:16,920 –> 00:45:18,679
let’s bring them in. Bank a man, yep, brk a man,

707
00:45:19,920 –> 00:45:21,400
My communist all the lord said to do it. We

708
00:45:21,480 –> 00:45:31,559
gotta do it. The US workforce is aging. We got

709
00:45:31,559 –> 00:45:34,280
a growing number of people fifty five and older remaining

710
00:45:34,320 –> 00:45:37,800
in the labor workforce, presenting both opportunities and challenges for

711
00:45:37,800 –> 00:45:42,159
the employers and workers alike. It’s presenting more challenges. The

712
00:45:42,199 –> 00:45:46,679
workforce is getting older. I think the last the last

713
00:45:46,719 –> 00:45:49,960
great thing, the last great projection they had was like

714
00:45:50,000 –> 00:45:53,320
forty two point five or something. We’re an old workforce.

715
00:45:54,440 –> 00:45:58,880
It’s looking more like a square than it is. A

716
00:45:58,960 –> 00:46:04,800
pyramid used to be a pyramid. And Jep just said, yeah,

717
00:46:04,840 –> 00:46:07,400
I can share stuff on here, So I want to share.

718
00:46:07,400 –> 00:46:09,119
I want to see if I can bring this up.

719
00:46:09,440 –> 00:46:12,360
I might be able to. I don’t know. It gave

720
00:46:12,360 –> 00:46:16,239
me all kinds of crap here for a second. Be original.

721
00:46:17,679 –> 00:46:27,719
Come on, baby, yeah, no, I want the graph. I

722
00:46:27,800 –> 00:46:32,840
want the graph. Bring me the graph advanced proceed to

723
00:46:32,880 –> 00:46:35,360
BLS dot com. I don’t care if it’s unsafe. They

724
00:46:35,400 –> 00:46:43,559
probably are going to come on, baby, here we go. Now,

725
00:46:43,679 –> 00:46:46,000
let’s see if we can share this screen because this

726
00:46:46,039 –> 00:46:51,440
is this is kind of interesting. It’s just not gonna

727
00:46:51,480 –> 00:46:54,840
let me do it. It’s just not gonna let me

728
00:46:54,840 –> 00:47:00,960
do it, you little jerks. Oh well, I try. No,

729
00:47:01,320 –> 00:47:04,639
it’s it’s it’s going to uh give me crap. Anyways,

730
00:47:08,199 –> 00:47:16,199
we have an issue the labor market is really strange.

731
00:47:16,199 –> 00:47:18,880
When you look at what’s going on in the labor force,

732
00:47:20,320 –> 00:47:28,760
it’s it’s very bizarre. Let’s see labor force participation participation rate.

733
00:47:28,840 –> 00:47:41,199
Let’s see, like I can bring that up. You’re gonna

734
00:47:41,199 –> 00:47:42,559
do it. You’re gonna do it. You’re gonna do it.

735
00:47:42,639 –> 00:47:46,400
Maybe they’re gonna do it. I don’t know. But anyways,

736
00:47:46,440 –> 00:47:49,079
this is a Bureau of Labor Statistics. Had this nifty

737
00:47:49,119 –> 00:47:50,599
little graft and I was wanting to show you. I

738
00:47:50,639 –> 00:47:52,840
had it on out of the computer. This computer decided, yeah,

739
00:47:53,199 –> 00:47:55,679
you gathering going home? Is it gonna do it? Oh

740
00:47:55,719 –> 00:47:58,000
my gosh, we got the Nope, that’s not the graph.

741
00:47:58,480 –> 00:48:01,000
I want all of it, folks, I want all of it.

742
00:48:05,159 –> 00:48:06,960
This is not going to do it for me. These

743
00:48:07,000 –> 00:48:12,639
people just suck it all just sucks. Anyways, remember back,

744
00:48:12,880 –> 00:48:16,119
if you’re a little older like me, you had a

745
00:48:16,119 –> 00:48:18,880
summer job when you were sixteen, you had a little job.

746
00:48:18,880 –> 00:48:20,679
You worked at a restaurant. My brothers and sisters, you know,

747
00:48:20,840 –> 00:48:23,079
they worked at McDonald’s. I was class here. I worked

748
00:48:23,119 –> 00:48:28,239
at Big Boy sixteen until I graduated and went off

749
00:48:28,239 –> 00:48:31,840
to college, where I worked few jobs under the table, cash,

750
00:48:32,199 –> 00:48:35,159
under the table. I worked a few rock and roll

751
00:48:35,239 –> 00:48:41,599
gigs with my hair band, did things like that, and

752
00:48:41,679 –> 00:48:48,480
it’s kind of I don’t know, everybody had the job.

753
00:48:48,559 –> 00:48:56,039
I mean, it was very, very odd that you didn’t

754
00:48:56,159 –> 00:49:00,000
have a job when you were, you know, at least eighteen.

755
00:49:04,000 –> 00:49:10,239
I’m looking at some of the grafts here and it’s

756
00:49:10,280 –> 00:49:13,880
really odd that they just go down. You know. The

757
00:49:13,880 –> 00:49:17,840
only thing that went up was people fifty five and older.

758
00:49:18,400 –> 00:49:20,800
There was a hump that went from two thousand and

759
00:49:20,840 –> 00:49:24,199
seven all the way to twenty twenty three. Of course

760
00:49:24,280 –> 00:49:28,199
COVID everything dropped a little bit, but right at twenty

761
00:49:28,239 –> 00:49:34,079
twenty all the way through now, I guess it changed

762
00:49:38,280 –> 00:49:40,719
this whole time. And this isn’t just COVID, but since

763
00:49:40,719 –> 00:49:45,880
two thousand and seven, the eighteen through twenty five year

764
00:49:45,920 –> 00:49:52,920
old demographic has slowly been declining, not a lot, but significantly.

765
00:49:54,000 –> 00:50:00,440
Twenty five year olds are less and less in labor

766
00:50:00,440 –> 00:50:07,000
force now than what they used to be, and it’s worrisome.

767
00:50:10,880 –> 00:50:13,840
Your forty to fifty five year old is your demographic

768
00:50:13,920 –> 00:50:17,199
right now, with the largest with the highest employment rate.

769
00:50:18,880 –> 00:50:30,320
I find that disturbing. Today’s workers are older, but they’re

770
00:50:30,320 –> 00:50:32,119
better educated and more likely to have a four year

771
00:50:32,159 –> 00:50:35,840
college degree than in the past. A significant portion of

772
00:50:35,840 –> 00:50:40,000
older workers are employed full time. This trend is increasing.

773
00:50:41,079 –> 00:50:44,360
So where is our young labor force? Where is our

774
00:50:44,400 –> 00:50:50,000
young labor force? Their jobs open everywhere, everywhere, And since COVID,

775
00:50:50,000 –> 00:50:53,880
I know, the job market has been a mess, but

776
00:50:53,920 –> 00:50:55,960
this started all the way back in two thousand and seven.

777
00:50:56,199 –> 00:50:59,679
Trying to hire anyone to do a job, especially a

778
00:50:59,760 –> 00:51:03,239
job that’s just a minimum wage job, something just to

779
00:51:03,360 –> 00:51:06,320
drive parts around, clean bus tables, do something for a

780
00:51:06,360 –> 00:51:09,679
little bit of money. It’s almost impossible to hire anybody

781
00:51:09,719 –> 00:51:16,320
into these positions. I know, I am a hirer of people.

782
00:51:19,519 –> 00:51:22,400
It’s slowly leading to some type of idiocracy. We can’t

783
00:51:22,440 –> 00:51:26,639
find people to do the jobs. And when you understand,

784
00:51:28,159 –> 00:51:32,119
you understand that a sixteen to twenty four year old demographic,

785
00:51:34,280 –> 00:51:37,360
which basically, let’s face it, folks, from sixteen to twenty

786
00:51:37,360 –> 00:51:40,039
four years old, you’re working a McJob. Okay, you’re working

787
00:51:40,119 –> 00:51:43,719
on McJob. Sixteen to twenty four is when you first

788
00:51:43,760 –> 00:51:46,840
start your job. In sixteen and twenty four, you’re still

789
00:51:46,840 –> 00:51:48,800
in college, you’re getting ready to graduate college with your

790
00:51:48,800 –> 00:51:51,599
bachelor’s degree or whatever, or you’re just you know, kind

791
00:51:51,639 –> 00:51:55,639
of floundering about partying, doing whatever you’re doing, until you

792
00:51:55,719 –> 00:51:57,719
start waking up to the fact that hey, I’m twenty four,

793
00:51:57,760 –> 00:52:02,079
I’m starting to become an adult. McJobs, there’s no one

794
00:52:02,119 –> 00:52:06,440
to flip Burger’s. Kids aren’t taking summer jobs anymore, they’re

795
00:52:06,480 –> 00:52:10,239
not taking part time jobs anymore. Is this why that

796
00:52:10,360 –> 00:52:12,960
Biden and Obama administrations are trying to push two million

797
00:52:13,000 –> 00:52:16,079
illegal aliens in here a year? Is this why the

798
00:52:16,119 –> 00:52:19,239
World Economic Forum in the United Nations are ignoring the

799
00:52:19,360 –> 00:52:23,199
sovereignty of our nation and are trying to nation build

800
00:52:23,320 –> 00:52:26,679
with like a caste system off cheap laborers on the

801
00:52:26,840 –> 00:52:30,679
very bottom and everybody else surviving on the backs of

802
00:52:30,719 –> 00:52:36,199
those workers, exploiting these workers to no, yeah, you’re here,

803
00:52:37,280 –> 00:52:42,440
We’re going to exploit you. Though. The biggest issue, the

804
00:52:42,480 –> 00:52:47,800
population implosion will cause that I can see. And this

805
00:52:47,880 –> 00:52:49,960
is why you’re going to all of a sudden your

806
00:52:50,039 –> 00:52:52,440
life thinking your lifetime, folks, you’re going to see this

807
00:52:52,480 –> 00:52:58,679
become huge, huge, And you’re right, Aggie McDonald’s has kiosks

808
00:52:58,719 –> 00:53:00,920
for ordering things now because he can’t get people to work,

809
00:53:01,320 –> 00:53:04,000
so they replaced them with machines. And you are seeing

810
00:53:04,039 –> 00:53:07,679
farms replaced kids with machines. I used to go do

811
00:53:08,159 –> 00:53:11,039
quaranty tasseling. My brothers and sister did the same thing.

812
00:53:12,920 –> 00:53:15,920
Used to be you’d go work at some funky job

813
00:53:16,000 –> 00:53:17,840
that was just miserable, but you know, you had a

814
00:53:17,880 –> 00:53:19,840
lot of people to complain with, and you haught a

815
00:53:19,840 –> 00:53:23,760
good time working at a golf course mowing lawns. Whatever

816
00:53:27,440 –> 00:53:29,199
the world economic for in the UN Nation and the

817
00:53:29,320 –> 00:53:31,800
United Nations are are ignored. Are trying to ignore the

818
00:53:31,840 –> 00:53:36,960
sovereignty of our nation and push two million illegals over

819
00:53:36,960 –> 00:53:40,199
the border a year to nation build. They’re building a

820
00:53:40,239 –> 00:53:47,760
caste system. Let’s face it, folks, what the the people

821
00:53:47,800 –> 00:53:53,800
who oppose having border control are really advocating a slave labor.

822
00:53:54,119 –> 00:53:56,280
You can dress it up, you could call it whatever

823
00:53:56,320 –> 00:53:58,280
you want, but what they want and what they need,

824
00:53:58,360 –> 00:54:04,800
is slave labor. These are stupid people, okay to them.

825
00:54:05,159 –> 00:54:09,440
The biggest issue with a population implosion is going to

826
00:54:09,480 –> 00:54:15,000
be the decline of revenue for big Daddy government. Don’t

827
00:54:15,000 –> 00:54:17,119
think for a second that the tax monitors in DC

828
00:54:17,280 –> 00:54:21,559
aren’t fretting and stewing about this, this eventual issue. They

829
00:54:21,599 –> 00:54:24,679
see it on the horizon. Look how they’re acting right

830
00:54:24,719 –> 00:54:28,760
now with just one administration cleaning house and shutting unnecessary ways.

831
00:54:28,800 –> 00:54:32,280
They are freaking out. They are setting themselves on fire

832
00:54:32,320 –> 00:54:36,079
and cutting themselves, sending their minions, they’re paid minions, out

833
00:54:36,079 –> 00:54:38,119
into the street to act like it’s some kind of

834
00:54:38,159 –> 00:54:42,519
grassroot protest. I can’t wait to see the science that says,

835
00:54:42,800 –> 00:54:46,320
save our giant leviathans, save our giants. These people are

836
00:54:46,440 –> 00:54:55,079
fighting tooth and nail to protect giant wasteful, unsustainable government.

837
00:54:55,440 –> 00:55:00,519
And if we have the population reduction that is not

838
00:55:00,719 –> 00:55:04,119
possibly but probably coming, and I think it’s probably coming

839
00:55:04,159 –> 00:55:09,280
way before twenty seventy, think about it for a second, folks.

840
00:55:09,960 –> 00:55:13,840
All it takes is a real pandemic, not a modified

841
00:55:14,000 –> 00:55:18,639
Chinese woo hand lab cold. But I’m talking a real pandemic. Okay,

842
00:55:18,679 –> 00:55:20,840
We’ve already got things like measles and all kinds of

843
00:55:20,880 –> 00:55:25,960
weird diseases coming over the border. With these undocumented illegal

844
00:55:26,000 –> 00:55:29,599
aliens who are not being tested as they come through

845
00:55:29,639 –> 00:55:32,719
to make sure that they’re healthy, we’re having things that

846
00:55:32,760 –> 00:55:35,360
we haven’t seen before. All it takes is something to

847
00:55:35,440 –> 00:55:41,679
catch wildfire to kill off a bunch of the younger generation.

848
00:55:43,760 –> 00:55:49,360
I don’t know, maybe a fentanyl problem, a drug problem,

849
00:55:51,800 –> 00:55:58,679
and you will see this population decline, triple, quadruple. It’ll

850
00:55:58,719 –> 00:56:02,760
happen quickly. What we have already, ladies and gentlemen, what

851
00:56:02,800 –> 00:56:05,599
we have already. You think about this. Everything that’s being

852
00:56:05,679 –> 00:56:09,519
pushed in the mainstream society and by mainstream society right now.

853
00:56:10,039 –> 00:56:14,199
I’m talking the mainstream media, the Democrat Party, the leftist leftism,

854
00:56:14,320 –> 00:56:20,760
right now, everything they’re preaching, transgenderism, abortion, Oh my god,

855
00:56:20,800 –> 00:56:22,840
don’t mess with their abortion. We have to have the

856
00:56:22,920 –> 00:56:26,800
right to kill our babies. Everything they’re pushing right now

857
00:56:28,519 –> 00:56:34,840
leads to sterilization, leads to population decline, leads to what

858
00:56:35,039 –> 00:56:40,159
I believe we could be seeing by twenty thirty five,

859
00:56:41,519 –> 00:56:45,360
the stagnation of our population and then the sudden decrease.

860
00:56:45,960 –> 00:56:51,360
All it takes is one war where we’re sending people

861
00:56:51,360 –> 00:56:54,639
off to die. All it takes is one real pandemic,

862
00:56:55,440 –> 00:57:00,440
a meteorite hit, a mass power outage. Think about it.

863
00:57:00,480 –> 00:57:03,360
I preach this on this show all the time. I

864
00:57:03,480 –> 00:57:05,360
preach this on this show all the time. And an

865
00:57:05,360 –> 00:57:09,920
EMP a chromo mass ejection electromagnetic pulse knocks out the

866
00:57:09,960 –> 00:57:13,400
power grid. I guarantee you, in the first thirty days,

867
00:57:14,000 –> 00:57:17,199
the United States of America will lose fifty million people.

868
00:57:17,360 –> 00:57:21,280
Almost everybody on both coasts will be eating each other

869
00:57:21,400 –> 00:57:24,639
and dying in droves. They don’t have a way to

870
00:57:24,719 –> 00:57:31,119
sustain themselves without dependence on a razor thin infrastructure. They

871
00:57:31,159 –> 00:57:36,639
just don’t and it will be horrific. All it’s gonna

872
00:57:36,679 –> 00:57:40,320
take is a glitch in the system, and that population

873
00:57:40,440 –> 00:57:44,239
decline is going to be massive. And when it is,

874
00:57:47,320 –> 00:57:49,920
it’s gonna get brutal, it’s gonna get ugly. Now, it

875
00:57:49,960 –> 00:57:53,079
will eventually pan out in the long run. We are

876
00:57:53,559 –> 00:57:56,079
and I’m going to go the way of what I

877
00:57:56,119 –> 00:58:00,320
was beginning this show off of with Paul Rlick. All

878
00:58:00,360 –> 00:58:05,360
of his predictions were wrong. All of his doom has

879
00:58:05,760 –> 00:58:12,400
not come true because we’ve adapted. We’ve adapted, we’ve overcome,

880
00:58:13,039 –> 00:58:19,400
and eventually, if the population is to suddenly tank, will adapt,

881
00:58:19,920 –> 00:58:24,679
will overcome. But what I’m saying is the transition period

882
00:58:24,760 –> 00:58:29,960
between adapting and overcoming is going to be brutal. It’s

883
00:58:30,000 –> 00:58:32,159
going to be hard, and a lot of people will

884
00:58:32,199 –> 00:58:36,880
die just because of that. We are a soft generation.

885
00:58:37,440 –> 00:58:42,039
We’ve reduced ourselves down to a soft people. We don’t

886
00:58:42,079 –> 00:58:45,519
know how I’m talking about myself, I’m talking about the

887
00:58:45,519 –> 00:58:48,320
population general. We don’t know how to raise food in

888
00:58:48,360 –> 00:58:51,719
our backyards. We don’t know how to hunt food. And

889
00:58:51,760 –> 00:58:53,840
when you get into these younger generations, they have no

890
00:58:53,920 –> 00:58:55,880
idea which end of a hooked up, a worm out,

891
00:58:55,920 –> 00:59:02,960
even a fish. You’re right, Amish will take over the world.

892
00:59:03,519 –> 00:59:05,320
We will have to rely on the Amish. We will

893
00:59:05,320 –> 00:59:08,559
have an Amish king in America someday and we will

894
00:59:08,559 –> 00:59:10,880
have to follow his every command if we want to live.

895
00:59:11,880 –> 00:59:15,079
All of our women will be wearing pleasant Amish dresses.

896
00:59:16,199 –> 00:59:18,960
We will all take baths once a week, whether we

897
00:59:19,039 –> 00:59:22,039
need them or not, and we will milk all the cows.

898
00:59:22,480 –> 00:59:24,960
I can’t wait. To me, this sounds like paradise, except

899
00:59:25,000 –> 00:59:30,559
the bath thing. That’s kind of gross. What will the

900
00:59:30,599 –> 00:59:35,199
future elected elitist snobs do when the population starts declining

901
00:59:35,239 –> 00:59:40,000
here and their seemingly infinite source of revenue dries up.

902
00:59:41,199 –> 00:59:44,559
Where will they get their money to feed the big, bloated,

903
00:59:44,920 –> 00:59:54,800
unsustainable lebiathan. It will definitely be Maybe not for us

904
00:59:54,880 –> 00:59:57,760
who have taken the yes ordnance says he shall be

905
00:59:57,800 –> 01:00:03,400
your king. Maybe not for us we who have decided

906
01:00:03,400 –> 01:00:09,000
that we are making paths, and there are kids out there,

907
01:00:09,000 –> 01:00:10,960
trust me, they’re living in this area. They see this

908
01:00:11,039 –> 01:00:13,519
coming too. Maybe they don’t know what they’re seeing coming,

909
01:00:13,519 –> 01:00:16,599
but they feel something’s coming. Anybody with any kind of

910
01:00:16,679 –> 01:00:21,559
sensitivity to their world today can see something coming down

911
01:00:21,599 –> 01:00:24,320
the pike. They know there’s going to be a mass change.

912
01:00:24,360 –> 01:00:29,440
We can’t go the way we’re going. And screw you

913
01:00:29,480 –> 01:00:32,400
all for making me defend Donald Trump. But he’s doing

914
01:00:32,400 –> 01:00:35,000
the right thing, and these people that are fighting him,

915
01:00:35,559 –> 01:00:39,519
they just look stupid and silly. We need to go

916
01:00:39,559 –> 01:00:43,400
through the bureaucracies and we need to jettison every single

917
01:00:43,519 –> 01:00:47,880
thing that we don’t need. It’s going to become a

918
01:00:47,960 –> 01:00:54,320
necessity before too long. If the population and stagnate and

919
01:00:54,360 –> 01:00:59,599
then start phining, we’ll thank ourselves. By God, I got

920
01:00:59,599 –> 01:01:07,239
all of the US in by ten oh two. Folks,

921
01:01:07,960 –> 01:01:12,679
as much as the mainstream media, as much as your

922
01:01:13,400 –> 01:01:20,159
propaganda pushers and NPR an AP push for the overpopulation thing.

923
01:01:23,320 –> 01:01:26,400
We are teaching our children not to procreate. We are

924
01:01:26,440 –> 01:01:29,159
teaching our children that the institution of marriage is futile.

925
01:01:29,480 –> 01:01:34,480
We’re teaching our children that when they have children, it’s

926
01:01:34,480 –> 01:01:38,960
screwing up the world. These poor kids have no idea

927
01:01:39,039 –> 01:01:42,440
what’s going to happen to them. In their very own lifetimes.

928
01:01:43,079 –> 01:01:46,599
And even if it is twenty seventy before this all happens,

929
01:01:48,119 –> 01:01:50,880
I’ll be one hundred. I’ll still be pretty young. But

930
01:01:50,920 –> 01:01:53,679
they will still be at the point where they’ll want

931
01:01:53,679 –> 01:01:56,320
to retire, and they won’t be able to because they

932
01:01:56,320 –> 01:02:02,400
will be stuck working until they die if we don’t

933
01:02:02,519 –> 01:02:07,119
change things right now, and the change happens when we

934
01:02:07,239 –> 01:02:13,599
do thin out the bureaucracies, thin out the elected stupidities,

935
01:02:14,079 –> 01:02:18,119
keep more of our paychecks, learn to plant our own food,

936
01:02:18,159 –> 01:02:20,559
learn to grow our own food, get the government out

937
01:02:20,599 –> 01:02:23,559
of our way of having chickens in our backyard and

938
01:02:23,679 –> 01:02:27,000
being able to do things that are actually sustainable for us,

939
01:02:27,599 –> 01:02:30,119
even if it means that the government don’t get to

940
01:02:30,320 –> 01:02:34,840
milk our paychecks, the poor, poor, abused government don’t get

941
01:02:34,880 –> 01:02:38,719
to take more of our money. Oh my gosh, who’s

942
01:02:38,800 –> 01:02:43,159
gonna feed the transgender Ethiopians. They’re gonna have to learn

943
01:02:43,159 –> 01:02:46,599
to survive on their own. I’m Alan Ray. Sunday Night

944
01:02:46,639 –> 01:02:48,679
with Alan Ray. Next week, Lord Willing in the creek,

945
01:02:48,679 –> 01:02:53,679
don’t rise, and I may reach out for Jeff. We

946
01:02:53,760 –> 01:02:56,679
have a problem coming up that’s even more doomy. No,

947
01:02:56,760 –> 01:02:59,719
it might be, might not be and that is the

948
01:02:59,760 –> 01:03:02,400
poller shift. I’m gonna take a look at it next week.

949
01:03:03,199 –> 01:03:06,320
God bless you guys. Thanks for joining me in chat

950
01:03:06,440 –> 01:03:08,880
chat room. Thanks for listening to Sunday Night with Alan Ray.

951
01:03:09,599 –> 01:03:11,880
Each and every one of you are just awesome. God

952
01:03:11,920 –> 01:03:13,079
bless We’ll talk again soon
