"In the second half of the 16th century, Britain plunged into an energy crisis. At the time, the primary source of energy driving the British economy was heat derived from the burning of wood, and Britain was literally running out of trees.

As the supply of wood dried up, its price began to soar and inflation set in, compounding the problem and spreading it to all corners of the economy. With imports from continental Europe insufficient to close the growing supply gap, the resulting crisis was dire.

And then they discovered coal. Well, they didn’t exactly “discover” coal – it had been known for centuries that coal could be a useful fuel – but they did learn that coal could replace wood in many important applications. They also recognized that they had a lot of it.

With a higher energy density than wood, coal is a superior fuel that enabled meaningful improvements in the British economy. Trees could be preserved for construction purposes, homes could be more efficiently heated, and companies could leapfrog their competitors.

It is now well understood that the wide adoption of primary fuels with high energy density enables a better standard of living. Transitioning to higher density fuels is something that usually occurs spontaneously in an economy unless politicians interfere."

"The true face of open border ideology is one of exploitation for political gain.  Democrats have been consistently hostile towards any attempts at state voter ID laws for a reason – They hope to use illegal immigrants as a battering ram to destabilize our existing culture and also as a voting pool that would make them impossible to remove from office in the near future."

Dýr lausn, en lausn: þeir halda áfram að senda alla flóttamennina til Martha's vineyard, og íbúar þar senda flóttamennina til Suður Ameríku.

Það væri hægt að gera þetta á ódýrari hæatt, en ameríks pólitík er á margan hátt lík þeirri íslensku.

Kanada verður sífellt undarlegri

"Photographs and video footage have been circulating on social media this week which appear to show a Canadian high school teacher wearing obscenely large prosthetic breasts while teaching a shop class.

In a video which would likely make any health and safety expert wince, the teacher can be seen demonstrating to the class of high school students how to use a circular saw with the long wig dangling down near the blade."

Það sem MBL, RÚV, Vísir og aðrir miðlar segja okkur ekki:

"Árið 2021 hvöttu heilbrigðisyfirvöld hér á landi þungaðar konur og mæður með börn á brjósti til að fara í Covid sprautur. Hvað gerðist það árið?

Aukning á burðarmálsdauða var 82% á árinu 2021 miðað við meðaltal síðustu níu ára þar á undan."
