“Kunstler skewers everything from kitsch to greed, prejudice, bloodshed, and brainwashing in this wily, funny, rip-roaring, and profoundly provocative page- turner, leaving no doubt that the prescriptive yet devilishly satiric A World Made by Hand series will continue.” — Booklist

“We’re living on borrowed time?” I’ve been living on borrowed time since April 24 1979, the day I was born (3 weeks prematurely) 😉
I thought I heard you say life is tragic once, Jim…
So we fly a bunch of coal and oil to Mars. Okay. Once you get it there, how do you burn it?
Between your insightful questions and deep understanding of the issues, and Gail’s ability to reduce the complexity of the issues into a relatively simple and yet comprehensive model, this was an outstanding interview.
Thank you.
It is always encouraging to hear fellow humans who understand the fragile nature of our modern American system and who, should it all fall down would be perfectly fit to continue on in some other, simpler fashion regardless. The true value in human life cannot be found in some shiny techno-bauble or an entertainment arena and those that cannot understand this fact are best done without anyway. Humanity and America specifically is long overdue for a cleansing colonic.
