Captain Zero Allan Weisbecker drops a doozy on us, in the latest update of his newsletter: ICU Pshychosis, an Explanation. This post concerns epidemiology, the end of oil, governmental deceit, Black Death and the earth’s inability to feed more than 2 Billion people without oil to help facilitate the growth, processing and transportation of food:

Ever hear of the ‘Green Revolution’? In simple terms, it refers to the breakthroughs in agriculture that allow 6 billion people to live on the planet without horrendous mass starvation.

Know what’s needed so that six billion people can get fed?

Oil. Oil byproducts are needed to make the fertilizers and pesticides and herbicides that are vital in growing enough food to feed everybody. (Almost everybody.)

And this doesn’t count fueling the internal combustion engines that spread the stuff on the fields, reap the harvest, and so forth, not to mention move the food to the folks who are supposed to eat it.

I love a good conspiracy theory1.

  1. even when it’s less “conspiracy theory” and more “increasingly likely scenario”

Love the guy’s perspective. Also love that’s he now self-publishing his book. Anyone read it?
