A nation that continues year after year to spend more money on military defense than on programs of social uplift is approaching spiritual doom.
This money is to secure near future NWO warmongering and to pay for the genocide in Palestine. 10% will probably go to the big guy. The 9 billion...

Why is this data significant? Just because the economists say it is?
What if everything that was manufactured was built to last, and for easy repair? If that was the case across the planet, then once you had the basic infrastructure manufactured, you could ease off and just let it run. Couldn't you?
The whole machine age was originally sold to the population (when it couldn't be forced down their throats) on the basis that is would increase efficiency, relieve us of drudge work, and basically cause a spiritual elevation across the boards. And I don't see any reason why it couldn't actually do that.
Obviously, this was not the actual intention of the "captains of industry." Apparently their plan was to phase out human workers completely, and reap all the benefits of the machine age for themselves.
And so we are told that we must hectically continue to make more stuff! If we keep this up, we will bury ourselves under mountains of our own discarded manufactured goods! How far down this road do we need to travel before some of these basic truths begin to become obvious?
We need a post-industrial game.
THEIR post-industrial game is to replace people with machines. People are bothersome.
So, what's OUR post-industrial game? I think it should be to catch up our spiritual, mental and social technologies to the level of our machine technologies. Do we want to resolve these age-old patterns of growth and decline, or not? If we do, the question becomes: After the bulk of the manufacturing is done, what do we do next?
