Part
6: The Immigration factor—quality of life issues that will become
really nasty, traffic, price of gas, drive time, species extinction,
carbon footprint, ecological footprint
First
of all, this series may depress you, worry you and even frighten you.
We’re talking about what your kids face within the next 38 years
IF you/we/Congress/the president allow another 100 million immigrants
to land in our country. That enormous number of human beings from around
the world will change everything in our civilization—none of it
good. Again, with an added 80 million desperately impoverished people
added to the world annually—we can expect NO end of the line of
immigrants wanting to come to America “to have a better life.”
No
matter how many immigrants we save, they gladly amass a net gain of
80 million more of themselves annually with no end in sight. They will
continue adding 1 billion of themselves every 12 years. We only alleviate
mass human starvation for a moment in time for those who make it to
our shores. At some point, we, too, will not be able to feed ourselves.
It’s called “ecological footprint” as to arable land
and water. I’ll cover that in a few seconds.
That
100 million people will change the face of our cities, overwhelm our
resources, exceed our water supplies and create an energy crisis beyond
solving no matter how much soft sell you hear from our leaders and ridiculous
TV ads telling us how hard they are working on alternative energy. Balderdash!
They need to start thinking about water, resources and arable land to
grow food.
Underlying
this massive immigration invasion, the foundation of our land, water
and air suffers massive degradation on multiple levels. If you think
the drought affecting much of the USA this summer and destroyed crops
registered new problems, wait until we add 100 million immigrants. How
can we feed and water them, and ourselves—when we already suffer
a boatload of problems with over 46 million Americans already subsisting
on food stamps?
Lester
Brown, author of Plan B 4.0 Saving Civilization said, “The world
has set in motion environmental trends that are threatening civilization
itself. We are crossing environmental thresholds and violating deadlines
set by nature. Nature is the timekeeper, but we cannot see the clock.”
Why
am I so certain of my work on this subject of immigration/population?
As a six continent world cyclist, I have already seen what it does to
other countries. It’s destroying Canada, Australia, France, United
Kingdom, Holland, Sweden, Belgium, Austria, Denmark, Germany, Spain,
Norway and other western countries. It’s overwhelming them and
eating away at their cultures and destroying the ability to feed, water
and house themselves. The ironic and terrible aspect of mass immigration
remains: the receiving country never solves the core problem—third
world countries NEVER become responsible for their own numbers or citizens.
I
witnessed the utter futility of life in China, India, Bangladesh, much
of Mexico, Africa, Indochina and other overpopulated countries around
the world. They refuse to solve their problems or the problems have
become unsolvable.
Where
do I start? I could write another book as to our predicament, but as
with the last one, America on the Brink: The Next Added 100 Million
Americans, people fail to act on the facts, the realities and the knowledge.
I tried to interview on Charlie Rose, Matt Lauer, Katie Couric, Diane
Sawyer, Wolf Blitzer, Bill O’Reilly, Bill Maher, Neal Conan (NPR)
and dozens of top radio stations. They suppress, ignore and evade this
issue at every juncture.
Let’s
start with what we create with adding 100 million immigrants as to “ecological
footprint.” Ecological footprint is the amount of land required
to support one person. In Ethiopia, it’s .4 acres because they
are 100 percent agrarian and live simply in huts with outhouses (or
they use the land which causes horrific pollution problems). In America,
each added person must destroy 25.4 acres in order to be supported at
the American level of wealth, resource usage, housing, transportation
and food.
“According
to the Footprints of Nations the ecological foot print of one average
American is 10.3 hectares or 25.45 acres. That is five city blocks plus
about two lots (using 5 acre blocks divided into 24 lots). That is how
much land it takes to supply all the energy, food, paper, building materials,
and consumer goods to keep one average American living the life to which
he or she has grown accustomed. By contrast the ecological footprint
of average world citizen is 6.92 acres.” www.allspecies.org
When
you take 100 million X’s 24.45 acres, that equals 2.445 billion
acres of wilderness to be destroyed to cope with watering, feeding,
housing and transporting that many new Americans. What does it mean?
It
means that our current 250 annual species extinction rate will climb
from 2,500 per decade to probably double that number as cascade extinctions
accelerate. It means more arable land will be turned into pavement.
It means a drought in 2050 will be a disaster beyond solving to feed
our overflowing masses. It means our cities will thicken into living
nightmares beyond what we see in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, San
Francisco, Atlanta, Detroit and others today. It means air pollution,
cost of energy and water supplies will worsen beyond anyone’s
current imagination.

To
give you a hint, gasoline will cost Americans at some point in the future
a whopping $20.00 per gallon. It’s already $10.00 a gallon in
Europe. That cost will make your cost of food, housing, warming, materials—everything
you need to exist will cost you much more. That will lower your standard
of living and quality of life. (Source: $20 Per Gallon by Chris Steiner
at Forbes Magazine)
In
part 7, I am going to cover a few more horrendous problems our country
will face IF we allow this massive overload of immigrants to continue.
So, will you sit there and let it happen? Again, you can change history
