Gigantic underground aquifers are being rapidly depleted all over the world, and once that water is gone, it will take a very long time for it to come back. In fact, in some areas of the United States, the recharge rate is less than an inch per year. That is a major problem, because more than half of the water that U.S. farmers use for irrigation comes from underground aquifers. What in the world are our farmers going to do once that water is gone?

Without sufficient quantities of oil, the global economy will not be able to operate normally. So the fact that the global economy is running a massive “oil deficit” right now should deeply alarm all of us. Ever since the war with Iran began, the world has been consuming far more oil than it has been producing. We have been running down commercial oil inventories and strategic oil reserves all over the planet, and now those supplies are starting to run dry. In the not-too-distant future, global demand for oil will substantially exceed what is available, and that will mean much higher prices and very painful shortages.

Modern economic life no longer unfolds within reality as it emerges from human action. It operates within a constructed order that substitutes itself for real processes. Governments do not engage with the economy as it is lived and experienced. They act upon abstractions that stand in for it. What is presented as analysis is in fact a replacement.
