Utopia, you are standing in it!

The Ministry of Health has released data on the August Delta outbreak updated to as of yesterday. You can access it here .

Some extracts ….

Of the 1,230 cases reported 84.8% were from the 0-59 age group.

65.9% of cases were from those who self identified as Pacifica with a further 16.9% as Maori. Asians came in third at 7.8% with Europeans fourth at 7.5%.

Of the 258 cases requiring hospitalisation 68% were from the 0-59 age group.

What does the data tell us?

You tell me.

A job that depends on subsidies, isn’t really a job, at all, it’s a make-work scheme cooked up by closet socialists. And, so it is, with the so-called “green jobs” that self-evidently exist, and only exist, while the renewable energy subsidies keep flowing.

There is no natural market for intermittent wind or solar power, because neither of them can be delivered as and when power consumers need power. In the absence of massive subsidies, there would be no wind or solar ‘industries’, so-called.

So, it should come as no surprise that the jobs “created” in association with those industries are an easy come, easy go, kind of affair.

The only thing ‘inevitable’ about the ‘transition’ to an all wind and sun powered future is bankruptcy for wind and solar outfits, the moment the subsidies get cut.

Of course, before these outfits wind up in insolvency, they generally attempt to shed…

In February 2021, the temperature in Texas dropped below zero. Not a big deal, right? Texas is the energy state. Just go home, turn on the heat, and hunker down. That’s how it should have gone. But it didn’t. What happened, and why?

The ACLU is the American Civil Liberties Union, and the first I’d heard about them was a reference in the 1980 movie, The Blues Brothers. It’s the scene where the American Nazi party is allowed to do a march in Skokie, Illinois (then with a large Jewish population, including many survivors of the Holocaust) and Jake and Ellwood charge their car at the protestors, forcing many to jump off a low bridge into a stream.

The real life event came as a result of the ACLU actually fighting in court for the right of the Nazi party to hold the march. It is considered to be a landmark US case on freedom of speech and freedom of assembly.

Sadly, the ACLU is not that organisation any longer. There have been internal documents in recent years where they have hedged on defending the US Bill of Rights first amendment, not…

The wind industry’s entrenched culture of lying and deceit is well-known around the globe. Uncovering precisely what these characters get up to is more of a challenge.

A noise nuisance case being pursued by farmers in the Victorian Supreme Court against the operator of the Bald Hills wind farm (our post here) is revealing a whole lot more than the wind industry is ever open to admit.

The operator’s noise consultant, Marshall Day Acoustics has been destroying and deleting unhelpful noise data that it has gathered from non-compliant wind farms across Victoria for years, including at Bald Hills, which, we are told is one reason why it decided to not call any of its staff to give evidence during the trial. The usual ‘dog-ate-my-homework’ excuse used by MDA whenever its noise data disappears was, apparently, deemed unlikely to cut it in front of a Supreme Court Judge.

But…
