The costs of all those things would not go up, had we a better transportation infrastructure like trains instead of diesel trucks.
Yes, but we don't. Let's wait we have some magic hobbits to plow those fields, or at least nuclear tractors.
Our economy deserves to fail, along with our current energy systems that will not let go and make way for better chioces.[...] We're staring at a serious wound here, now it is bleeding and the future can only be worse.[...] we need to flush it with alcohol first, endure some pain, and start dealing with it.
The change has to be gradual. You're asking for the destruction of our country. You want to bring change rapidly and violently, and I really don't think we'd recover from that. Mother Earth has waited a long time, she can wait a few more years while we take small (at first) steps in the right direction. And we are taking those steps. We have been for a long time, and now they're ramping up. See how that works? Like when you build a snowman! Calm down, take a couple of hits from your inhaler, it's gonna be okay. We don't have to throw ourselves into armageddon right now to fix this.
