Mangled Thoughts

The electricity output of windmills is bugger all of zippo.The North Europeans realised that, though they don’t mind making a bit of out every come in spinner govt flush, like the Spivs in Spring St., those in Downing St,with ready access to taxpayers’ notebook to buy expensive birdkilling machines.
And eco-terrorists whinge and whine about chaps who like to bear the old side by side on duck meat.Unlike windmilling govts., hunters spend a bit of money making swamps hospitable.

Bizarre science carries 2 links, one to Germany’s high voltage u-turn on windmills and one to something called a planet ark.

The Germans have discovered `it is a bottomless pit of money’ and the demmned things are plain `noisy, ugly and a danger to bird life’.Mind, they still crap on about `renewable energy’, nonsense it is, hoping 10 years of more truckloads of money will amke something renewable - how about debt ?

Meanwhile,in Spain, where Quixote’s lunatic rode a carcass followed by a dwarf sticking to the tried and true method of permabulation, holding onto his ass, villagers are keen to stick something long and pointy up the buttocks of the government intent on building a windfarm somewhere around the town.The comical touch is provided by those pol potian communistos, the greenies:

Because they can be seen they provoke a reaction, which is something that does not happen with most power plants that pollute.
… the main concern of Greenpeace is to get rid of energy that could end life on this planet.

The second sentence is too obvious, try the sun, volcanoes, tornadoes, killer asteroids.Plants - shit, they produce lots of planet destroying energy.I.e. to those not quite up on the take, anything that produces energy must destroy the planet sooner or later, energy being the number one enemy to planet slavery.Perhaps the greenies will lead by example and top themselves now, that certainly would reduce energy usage some ks. /annum.

Against the evidence, Bracksie wacksie, the commie fucktard brained socialist, wants to make Vic. a tribute to that bit of Crapola by whacking up those sumpholes, windmills, and has , as Bolt bolted back, ensured ugliness on the landscape marrs the greenie vision splendid.Plus a few thousand birdy carcasses splattered over all and sundry.

But how much can this really cost.

The cleanest and quite cheap and quite safe means of electricity generation, reactors, Toy Boy Blair and his bunch of thieving commies in govt. have imposed so many regulations as to price reactors out of business. In the name of toilet paper Kyoto he has punished other sources, on top of which stands `pollution’ excise on petrol, flight and other harmless means of transport and energy usage.So much so, Britain faces a major shortage in supply, all due to the greenie buggering govt.

But the news gets worse.Blair’s Trade and Industry secretary , a Patricia Hewitt
has declared licences for some thousands of `offshore wind-farm turbines’ - I suppose this is what the greenies mean by `invisible’, at an estimate of 6billion pounds. This figure seems a tad understated but one will let it go.

No, one won’t. because , taken with all the other measures, the economic losses due to the British socialistos, the L.P., are weighing in already and by the end, childs pocket money will seem the stuff of avarice.

The lesson:Victorians, screw the Spring St communistos before they send you right down the begarly streets of poverty, and the hell hole which is greenies’ fantasia.

The two arguments against disentangling the tentacles from government are false.The first is, major commercial t.v. ops. would be vulnerable to competition, viz advertising revenues, as well as suffering automatic write-down on capital value viz elimination of broadcasting licences.The second `is diversity’ of opinion, but this is wrong, on two counts also.

If the licences fees and band constrictions were not in force, along with payroll taxes, capital gains tax, content restrictions and so forth, it would remain, the capital scale required to run the ops of channels 7,9, and 10 are such, it would be a fool who rushes in with the billions or so to set up another T.V. station on that scale.One can imagine an entrpeneur setting up soemthing of sectioanl appeal, but that would be contingent upon whether that potential market would face demand sufficient to yield profit.Of course, it might well be the case, an entrepeneur might discover a direct challenge to the existing majors is feasible, by offering something better than the majors currently do. And, even if the last is true, govts. have no business in saving any company from such a possibility, in any sector.And not least because of the costs protectionism involves: it may be there are too amny TV stations inview of the market,so capital has been malinvested; and the elimination of alternative uses of bandwidths, ditto radio band width.

As for media diversity, simply put, the major revenue base is advertising, but journalism is required to advertise and sell a newspaper: after all, the object is to have as many consumers as possible to read the rag and thus read the advertising as well as the columns.On that count, journos are hired for what they write, irrespective of whether magnates and their C.E.O.s agree with the content or not.

The cry of `diversity’ however, coming from Fat Aunty Bolshevik Collective, SMH, The Maos’ Age and so forth, rings hallow. The great bogeyman is Rupert Murdoch.Not to worry, NCP rags like The Australian, Fin Review, don’t diverge much at all from the leftoid view of many things, and not the Keynesian fake money printing beliefs of the likes of Davidson and others.The Fin Review is as equally a pile of rotting vegetables economic as the Age is.

Brookes News has covered in detail the malevolent reportage carried by The Australian.And points out, given a choice between profits or dismissing lying leftoid journos, Murdoch retains them, as capitulated in this article: Murdoch’s hyprocrisy and Beijing’s Tyrants.

The Catholic Encyclopedia claims the Church was a mjor source for common law.Utter rot, the church was obstacle and the cost of Beckett’s victory from the grave persisted into the 19th century. The second hurdle Henry II faced was his leige Lord the king of France, and, some of his magnates and minor barons opposed to standardisation of law in terms of common law, under the highest authorities in England, courts Chancellory. Many of the priniples of common law were generated then.The common law induced economic liberalisation such that even serfs were far better of than their continental counter parts -not to say the life of an English serf was thus hunky dory altogether, just better off.
The sources of common law , given the slim evidence for its origins, one traces back largely to commercial towns.This corresponds with the glaring point, the ground of common law is economic liberty ; in stark contrast today with penchant of governments of each tier to overthrown common law through imposition of daministrative rules asserted as identical with law, many of which, indirectly corrupt freedom of contracts, fix prices, set up barriers - one more reason why the ACCC is a first rate joke but not a joke in its police state like approach to things.

The above is only to lead into the obvious, Australian clerics are besotted with vulgar humbuggery, like asserting `the sermon on the mount is a profound doctoral dissertation on economics’ which is what the clerisy position amounts to. Difficult to believe one could say it but, many a cleric is in need of a Sir Humphrey Appleby just to check them.

In the case of a former Ang.A.B., definitely. His call for parents to withdraw their children to Victorian government schools, at a time when the Cain-Kirner govts were finishing the final conversion of the same into the zoos they now are, was met with overwhelming silence. OUt of respect only, one assumes, melbourne and Victoria did not thunder with waves of rolling laughter.

As this gem, Uncle of ABC Watch zeroes in on and, ha, the global ambitions of the Ang.A.B. of Sydney, neatly distils, clerics never learn.

Rowan Williams is a very fine theologian.His Phd is no honorific.Will jensen decalre war against Spong, too?
As for `moral authority’, Oz clerics seem rather confused.Their authority is rests only not simply apostolic succession but, the pivot, whether they are `apostololic’. It might be noted, the philosopher Copplestone S.J. discovered the flaw too late during the proceedings of the debate with Lord Bertrand Russell, though on the subject of physics.

Jenson must be a gnostic, like the A.B. who declared it is the clerical duty to assert what god orders. Gnosticism, is superstition in the strict definition of the word, rendering, perforce, not a few clerics heretics.Is the A.B. of Sydney a heretic, pray tell?

To be fair, clerics are not the ones guilty of superstition: big bruvver central planners, socialists , greenies, are also irrational, superstitious humbuggers who hold all and all good things in contempt ,excepting themselves and their own interests; which implies, underneath all their unctious handwringing,they are selfish, greedy brats.

The linked article neatly summarises a few ramifications of almighty government and their agencies equipped with police-state like powers.

Via EPA, ESA and tarriffs, effectively, market in lumber has been corrupted. By coercion, supply has been reduced. ESA and EPA have induced what can be called corruption viz the company which has acted to close out competing suppliers of lumber by using ESA and its police powers to shut down operations.Compounding all this , the US governments commandeering of much of available products, further driving prices higher.

It is a neat illustration because it encapsulates so many things which are to be observed accross a borad range of interests, not only in the U.S. but in Australia. And one will say, in terms of corruption, on the whole, the root of corruption including of businesses, is government intervention, control, and spend and tax.The federal government’s inquiry into corruption in the building industry amplifies things further, not the inquiry, but why corruption at all.
What Beazely outlined in his speech would only compound much of the rot.

Von Mises org also carries an article comparing Greenspan to an orcle.Amusing and yet, strikingly apt.

Labour Party Conference: Blair on floor defends himself on the core, the government must make difficult, unpopular decisions.

The context, of course, is Gulf War II, which is unfortunate.For the Blair Natioanl Socialist Party ( viz.Captain Kockup) Party has, on the domestic scene, done many `popular’ things, expending real tax-payers assets on the great sacred cows favoured by socialist governments, and much more besides.

It is ironic, the matter which can sink Blair is that of Dr.Kelly.The British Bolshevik Collective walks away somewhat free: Gilligan only has a blot recorded in his copy book - like the silly bitch who pumped hard to have children play around and drape a rotting missile, and Marr does the appropriate hand-washing. Nothing to do with, Marr, the reason the crapperess pulled that stunt because that amounts also to the inventiveness required of ABC employees - all in the good cause of course.

This reminds me of the other village idiot journo - oh heck, another stupid bitch, who, in an `exclusive’ ,sreamed repeatedly at Wooldridge, `you’ve destroyed the system’ .Yes folks, screamed replete with high pitched, emotion charged voice, `Youv’e destroyed..’ Oh, Iv’e just recollected, she added the variation, `wrecked’. There is a jolly nice song which runs:

`Wrecked, Wrecked, out on the ocean deep…’;

That stupid communoid bitch, to guess, would regard it as elitist, imperialist sentiment and, ditto, Captain Kockup from his 2002 speech who; in his parlaimenatary performances was, still is, a screacher - had to turn the volume down when it was Mr.Blowhard’s turn to speak in `debate’.

There are plenty of reasons why Blair and the LP should be sacked from govt. It is horrid to agree, his govt. did the right thing viz.WWII.

Oh, that great murdering bastard, Gerry Adams is receiving free ABC time to indulge his usual crap about why some acts of murder are justified as opposed to others: he’s advertising his bio which should be entitled:

How to be a complete savage, `human’, and get it away with the help of communistos like LP, Clinton and the Democratic Party and a few other savages, including from down under.
