Predictions of the end times have been around for 1000's of years.
We overcome with technology.
Regardless, Government and 'consensus' never fix anything.
This was the point - But most of the narratives in the article below were created by a central Government consensus - ALWAYS backed by science, never happening. This is likely the ONLY fact and should make most question authority or Governments ability to fix anything (since from a cost/advancement perspective Government has made everything it touches worse)!
Trying to stay on topic - understanding why we get so mislead thinkking central authority expansion will fix things. Wouldn't it be better to start your OWN private non-profit to 'fix' what progressives believe needs to be fixed? If it fails, you know it was the wrong path!?
