TEMPORAL BLINDNESS AND OVERPOPULATION IN AMERICA

By Frosty Wooldridge

Cap and trade? Will it work? Not a chance! Screw in a mercury, curly-cue bulb to save electricity! Will that stop carbon emissions? Sorry! Drive a Prius for greater fuel efficiency? Only delays the inevitable! Add more lanes to Los Angeles’ freeways to solve gridlock? That’s like a four hundred pound man facing a heart attack—unbuckling his belt to allow more room for his bulging belly. That’s a tragic choice!

“TEMPORAL BLINDNESS is a limitation in cognitive process. People with temporal blindness cannot gather and process available information into predictions of future conditions. Their processes cannot connect future conditions to a causing behavior.

When their processes do create unpleasant predictions, and identify the causal behavior, they fail to create enough present meaning for the future conditions to motivate a change in that behavior.â€

I grow weary of guys like Al Gore speaking of global warming but fail to speak of over population which in fact is the over all problem, certainly if we don't control our own population America is doom while the land will be here the quality of life will be gone.....

More people=more crime=more laws=less freedom........
