I've heard people saying that if we stopped using coal, for example, what would coal miners do? Do coal miners dream of mining coal? I don't think so. They just want to be able to make a decent living. Coal mining is dangerous and rough. They'd do another job if there was one for them to do.

America, and every other country that can, should be focused on developing new energy technologies. With clean, cheap, abundant, maybe even limitless energy, we can fix everything that's wrong in the physical world. But the oil barons have to let us go. They have literally killed to keep control.

I now realize why Americans never look outside their borders. I thought it was because America is so big, but actually, it's because the powers that be find it dangerous to let Americans know that they don't have to live this way. The oldest extent democracy in the world is actually a kleptocracy.

We've been on a John Cusack 1980s movie marathon. I have never seen any of these movies. I'm not sure why. It's kind of weird. Eighties movies don't feel real to me. Is this postmodernism? Tonight we're watching Say Anything. It would be a completely different film if made now.
