say i am capable of producing enough protein for twenty families on a daily basis through acquired skills (which I am). for that capability i receive nothing.

Man are you talking to my indian friend in hawaii right now? He said he could make protein shakes - about 3 or 4 a day from his testes - for the starving women there to swallow - but they dont want to feast on his protein either! They would rather starve to death. Some of them have died.

that is a valueless skill in today's world, because you cannot compete with factory ships that produce tons of protein each day, enough to supply thousands of people.

Yah, I have posted recently, hawaii is broke - there they have thousands of homeless and many of them are starving. Some things are worse than death though - like protein shakes from my indian friend. Someone - mish I think - posted an article here about this starving momma who lives in the car with her three kids and tells them to lie to their friends about them having a house - she needs more protien I bet too!
She must no longer do anything valuable enough for society to get protien from the regular channels - so we should let her die off right?

Have you ever watched Les of Survivorman - he eats a lot of natural protein out there in the world - we are literally swimming in tons of protein - but if it doesn't come packaged in a box at the grocery store - many people dont consider it food - what was it jared diamond said about the europeans in alaska that starved to death because thier customs wouldn't let them eat fish? I bet that lady in the car never would pick up a snail or cricket or roach and eat it like Les does - she and her 3 kids would die first.

maybe the factory ships will continue for all time. or maybe crunch time will come and staying competetive won't matter.

If schumer and iran have thier way - I am thinking the foreign oranges will get more expensive and the china price will cost more than the local price - and then I will have something to barter to those starving women - but if my indian friend in hawaii can't feed them now with his natural protein injections - why would they eat my oranges for the same trade?

My greek friends in tarpon are pretty big in the shipping business - they say a war with IRAN is not like a war with afghans or iraqis - they think it would be very bad to go to war with Iran for the shipping business. We got all this new satellite technology and subs and underwater missles we got to test though right? All the research in the world is dandy but you need some real world empirical results to find out if you got some good stuff - who do you think will have the better stuff - the megamissles chen posted about that the chinese now have that can take out a whole carrier group - or maybe the new underwater missles iran is test firing? Maybe those missle carrying dolphins that the US NAVY lost during hurricane Katrina - thats my best - flipper with a missle - faster than lightning! Nena sang about 99 luftballons right?
