Healthy soil and sustainable growing

["John D'hondt" <dhondt@eircom.net>]



If one is missing the most basic facts it is easy to see no issues with future markets or gmo or nucular energy or...

I read a while ago that the futures/derivative market is a bubble containing 2-3 quadrillion $$ on paper, more money than is in existence and something like 27 times the planetary GDP. In other words, the futures markets are bigger than all the value of all the goods that are and will be available in the world for more than the next 25 years.

Scary?

It is so interesting to me that so many folks see no issue with the futures markets.  Lucrative in the moment and wreaking havok down the road.....I have no issue with folks being good at accumulating wealth,  I just wish that more of them had "right livelihood"  attached to their abundance gene.......gaining wealth to the intentional detriment of others just doesnt seem right in any light........I have this week had an inkling to manifest working toward teaching sustainable dairy management for the small holder......and neighborhood dairying with goats/sheep - labor/cost sharing etc......

Giving lots of local service gifts this year as well as bags of garlic and garlic rollers/peelers/roasters and my annual day out with my best friend that I do for the holidays as well as her birthday every year.....
