Don Pittis uses the Peter Victor Government Micromanagement Economic solution to support Greta Thunberg – September 26, 2019,
The Keynesian economic model is coming to an end, the writing is on the wall, the truth is now staring us in the face, Keyeians economics is not ideal for the digital economy. Why? Because the velocity of money in this era especially would be best suited for an Austrian economics model. However, to return to the financial system requires little government involvement would lead to a large segment of the population, namely the Leftist being extremely unhappy that they can no longer use the government as their social safety net.
Prior to the Welfare State, actually what I should say is if you go to any country that doesn’t have a successful welfare State what you’ll notice is there is a lot of economic activity, which if the government were to shrink in size would become massive economic activity. One of the reasons I have a hard time subscribing to the racial low IQ argument is that we’ve never seen a world in which individuals could pursue profits without unnecessary government involvement.
Africa isn’t poor because of white people, nor is it poor because of Capitalism, Africa is poor because of protectionism and Socialism. Consider trying to do business in Africa and see how many regulations their governments hit you with. This is similar in many Latin American countries, it’s not to say investment can’t navigate around these regulations at times, but you have to have deep pockets to do so. These unnecessary price increases which is often labeled as corruption in many Latin American and African countries is nothing more than Government micromanagement of the economy.
The solution for “mass extinction” already exists in the Free enterprise system, why poverty exists anywhere revolves around Government micromanagement of the economy. Now, I know Don Pittis knows this, most contributors of the CBC fully comprehend free-market economics. The truth is Canada, most Canadians wouldn’t know what to do without Government training wheels. Little Government inventions that most Canadians don’t even realize are things like “the Competition Act” which doesn’t allow “Misleading advertising and labelling”. This is a government law, that Canadians are accustomed to, this, of course, assists in the social engineering process as the Canadian mind muscles aren’t being exercised enough to know what’s real and what’s fake.
When the Private sector creates a scam, public schools should have educated people to be able to analyze and ask the right questions, while engaging in any form of barter, however, this segment of the Canadian brain is left to lie dormant, why because the assumption by the Canadian consumer is that the government has my back, so I’ll exercise my right not to think about things I believe the Government solved already. This is often the reason why when most Canadians and even Americans travel, they’re ignorant of how the real world works in an unregulated environment.
Now, when there became a demand for labeling, the Private Sector was more than happy to take on this responsibility, the private sector would love to educate Canadians on Misleading advertising and labelling, but the government took on this role and Canadians have been brainwashed to trust their government. This is of course what happened to Greta Thunberg, the government can’t help to solve climate change because the government caused climate change. Had the government allowed more flexibility in energy creation, we’d have hundreds of CLEAN fuel alternatives in existence today.
If the world had a Gold Standard or if the world had honest central banks, consumption levels would be on par with demand, recycling, and garbage collection would be done based on market demand and companies would change their business behavior as instead of buying plastic they’d reuse them, but in the modern world especially in Canada where even we with our abundance of land ship our government overseas because we’ve driven away small manufacturing companies that could have helped us build renewable energy plants, we’re now left on an incompetent government who has already outsourced our Green economy to countries like China. We have a carbon tax and there’s still no clarity in Canada as to what the carbon tax money is being used for?
If green energy is done locally, and people realize that they don’t need the government, the monopoly on energy ends. a diverse energy sector would have already shifted to clean energies. Do you see how quickly the market as adopted to appeasing health-conscious people? The exact same thing would happen in the energy sector, had the government stayed out
Cars and generators in case people forget can run on ALCHOHOL fuel! Nitinol Heat Machines were invented in the early 1970, solar has been around since the 1800s, there’s something called Cold Fusion or the Patterson Cell that’s clean energy and ready for the market, there’s Nuclear power, nuclear powerplants don’t have to be as large as they are.
Nuclear powerplants are large because the Government made the cost of living unnecessarily expensive, so it’s unprofitable to make safer smaller nuclear powerplant. Now I have to include Labor unions and other special interest groups via their own greed, used the government to ward off private-sector competition which would lower prices and come up with innovative solutions.
Because of all of this nonsensical government intervention even in the Public Schools push students to Colleges and Universities which in many instances include tens of thousands of dollars of debt instead of trade schools. Learning a trade used to be free, but the labour unions put a stop to that and now Canada as a shortage of skilled tradespeople. A shortage of something pushes prices up, higher prices equates to less innovation and fewer innovations help to maintain the status quo.
No Peter Victor is the person Don Pittis points too as the economist with the best vision to facilitate Greta Thunberg’s quick-fix solution to climate change and Peter Victor has a vision which involves more government involvement into the economy. You can’t abolish public and private sector labor unions, you can’t abolish special interest groups under the Peter Victor model and if you look at history higher prices and economic destruction revolve around a demand for government invention.
There are so many green solutions available on the market today I guarantee that most people have no idea who Marshall Medoff (Xyleco’s Marshall Medoff) is? If you haven’t considered reading the article below.

This is not an argument anyone wants to have with me, because I’m a clean energy guy!
Alternatives are all over the world, the argument was never if there are cleaner alternatives, the argument made by people who want to take over the global economy is if they can put a meter on it. Carbon taxes is putting a meter on energy creation.
It’s a global scheme to make money, what Peter Victor and Greta Thunberg are doing is they’re trying to put a meter on what would otherwise be extremely cheap energy.
Once you dive into how energy is created it’s not a difficult task to have alternative CLEAN fuels. The solutions are all already here, however, there’s a globalist agenda, the CARBON TAX the government creating energy winners and losers exist primarily because the larger multinational companies see the writings on the wall, so these Globalist multinational companies are propping up socialism, propping up people like Greta Thunberg, influencing the youth that there are only a tiny amount of renewable or clean energies that will acceptable to use. The Green new deal is, of course, corporate welfare, the Government is helping to create the new age oil barons. Rockefeller first tried to control the public school system to view energy the way he wanted them to view energy.
It’s the exact same thing happening in renewable energy now and people like Don Pittis who know better are complicated. Beware of the Big Government Vampires, they’re smarter than you think! This subject really irritates me and it’s time all you so-called energy conscious people stop lying! you’re puppets for the establishment!
