If you’ve seen the book ‘Crossing the Rubicon’ by Micheal C. Ruppert, or perhaps his video ‘The Truth and Lies of 911′, then Mick Ruppert will be no stranger. He has an uncanny way of stating politicians’ modus operandis in a bleak yet compelling, judical-like tone.

Unlike most journos or political commentators, he runs his own subscriber based site www.copvcia.com. So what’s the truth without spin Mick? Well as of September 2, Ruppert had this to say.

“The United States, with 5% of the world’s people, consumes (wastes) 25% of the world’s energy. How do you destroy demand? You collapse the economy. Homeless, unemployed “refugees” (what a cold, depersonalizing term) don’t buy gas, take trips, fly on airplanes or buy consumer goods (made with energy and requiring energy to operate). They don’t use air conditioning because they can’t afford it. They are the embodiment of Henry Kissinger’s infamous term “useless eaters,” a phrase from the Nazi vocabulary.”

It starts even more tragically:

“What is not being discussed rationally by the mainstream media is Katrina’s impact on energy production. They don’t dare. By my calculations and those of oil energy expert Jan Lundberg, the United States has just lost between 20% and 25% of its energy supply. My projection is that it’s not coming back — at least not most of it.”

“As many as twenty offshore rigs have now been confirmed as adrift, capsized, listing or sunk. Each rig may have as many as eight wells. Where’s the money coming from to replace them? How long will that take?”

Suffice it to say, America is completely buggered oil-wise. Even if they can get oil from Venezuala, Colombia, or god forbid the Persian Gulf, a lot of it was processed in New Orleans anyway. It doesn’t just magically turn from ‘bumblin’ crude into precision oil, or electricity.

There’s also the indeliable aspertions on George W. Bush

Since taking office, President Bush “has appointed, in succession, his 2000 campaign manager and an Oklahoma lawyer whose only emergency management experience prior to joining FEMA was as an assistant city manager.”

Beyond any natural, freak occurence, it’s highly apparent that this is not so much a racial descrimination as a class issue. Because as our old mate Mick puts it, in a neo-conservative, corporate run world, the less poor consumers, the more to go around with fewer overheads. Socialism for the uber rich. Get used to it or do something about it. The Republicans and their allies only care for themselves.

Here’s the original article if you want to judge for yourself.
