Immigration Shutdown Now! – Hunger in America
Part 11: Human starvation equates to human misery, 1 in 6 hungry in America
According to www.FeedingAmerica.org, one in six Americans faces hunger and malnutrition. That’s here in our country! Not Africa, Mexico or Asia, but here in America. A mind-numbing 48 million Americans subsist on food stamps. Nonetheless, our U.S. Congress imports 100,000 legal immigrants every 30 days as if that will solve our jobs crisis with America’s poor. We stand in the cross hairs of adding 100,000,000 (million) legal immigrants within the next 35 years. If we can’t solve our food crisis in 2015, how will we feed all those people in 2050? Maybe technology will save us! Answer: no it won’t.
The green revolution arrived as a result of the efforts of Norman Borlaug, who, while accepting the Nobel peace prize in 1970, said: "The green revolution has won a temporary success in man's war against hunger and deprivation; it has given humanity a breathing space. If fully implemented, the revolution can provide sufficient food for sustenance during the next three decades. But the frightening power of human reproduction must also be curbed; otherwise the success of the green revolution will be ephemeral only." Ironically, Borlaug, not only foresaw mass human starvation, he unwittingly contributed to it. While his great experimenting with crops yielded greater gains per acre, he facilitated massive population growth that exploded the world from 2.5 billion at the beginning of the last century to our enormously hungry and thirsty 7.3 billion humans in the 21st century. He unwittingly created even greater human starvation levels into the billions when the ax finally falls as to water, arable land and energy availability.
Dreadful, miserable and deadly! Today, we humans seem to think we can outsmart Mother Nature. We can vanquish her! As you see in this graphic series, at this point, we seem to be winning. Not for much longer! For millions of years, Mother Nature culled any species that overwhelmed its carrying capacity of water, food and resources. When we humans came onto the scene, our cleverness allowed us a small niche, which became a larger niche and today, Homo erectus meaning “clever ape”, rages across the planet with a self-evident arrogance that we can brutalize nature in any way we choose. We think we can poison the air, water and land without harm to ourselves. We think we can encroach on the rest of the natural world and kill off endless species—yet remain unharmed and untouched by our folly.
Think again! Today in America, one out of six citizens suffers hunger. Source: www.FeedingAmerica.org.
Poverty in America:
• In 2011, 46.2 million people (15.0 percent) were in poverty. • In 2011, 9.5 million (11.8 percent) families were in poverty.
• In 2011, 26.5 million (13.7 percent) of people ages 18-64 were in poverty.
• In 2011, 16.1 million (22.0 percent) children under the age of 18 were in poverty.
• In 2011, 3.6 million (9.0 percent) seniors 65 and older were in poverty.
Food Insecurity and Very Low Food Security
• In 2011, 50.1 million Americans lived in food insecure households, 33.5 million adults and 16.7 million children. These figures sober any American, but they do not begin to tell the story of 21st century world starvation dynamics. With our paltry 321 million human population, we also suffer the highest obesity rates in the world with over half of our citizens fat, overweight and suffering from heart disease, diabetes and other overweight medical health issues. But we also feature 40 + million Americans subsisting in food kitchens and food banks. An astounding 48 million of them live off food stamps.
Ironically, 10 million children starve to death around the world annually according to the World Health Organization www.WHO.org. Another eight million adult humans starve to death annually around the world from their sheer poverty. (Source: Time Magazine) In America, we gallop toward an added 138 million people by 2050 – a scant 35 years from now – virtually 90 percent of it caused by legal and illegal immigration. Beyond reason and without thinking, we appear to believe we can outsmart Mother Nature. We face a rude and vicious awakening long before 2050 as Peak Oil rips gasoline out of our tractors and slams us for $10 up to $20 per gallon.
How will our civilization survive the raging Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse? At the moment, we charge right into their cross hairs. First, we need a national discussion-debate. We need to throw “immigration overload” onto the table. We need to stop mass immigration. We cannot hope for good to ensue, we must act in order to create a viable civilization. This series applies to Canada, UK, Europe, Australia and most other countries of the world. Without our immediate actions, we most certainly will become victims of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. As Borlaug said, “But the frightening power of human reproduction must also be curbed; otherwise the success of the green revolution will be ephemeral only."
Definition of slogan: “Immigration Shutdown Now means the American people want all legal immigration dropped to less than 20,000 annually with compatible immigrants that fit our ethos and want to become Americans, and only those who benefit our country and/or they marry an American and speak English. That means we want all illegal immigration stopped by arresting, prosecuting and jailing employers of illegal aliens. We deport all illegal aliens by taking their jobs away and as we catch them. We want English mandated as our national language. We demand a cessation of Muslim immigration in order to protect our culture, language and way of life. We can’t save the world but we can destroy our civilization. We demand a stable population that allows everyone to live, work and thrive into the 21st century. Especially our children.” FHW That’s why you need to take action. Take action by joining these websites to become faxers of prewritten letters and phone callers. We must force Congress into an “Immigration Shutdown Now!”
