A call to encourage the creation and production of superabundant energy

The ivory towers of academia have echoed a sentiment of multitudinous ends and limited means. Even though it lacks a healthy dose of common sense, this academic "wisdom" has a significant impact on the media. Despite being profoundly contradictory, the relationship between population increase and abundance exists because historically, on average, each individual human has produced more value than they have consumed. In the process of discovery, people are left with innovations that overcome shortages, spur economic growth, and raise standards of living. However, to innovate, people must be allowed to think, speak, publish, associate, and disagree. They must be allowed to save, invest, trade, and profit. In a word, they must be free. 
Let's talk about a "general economy" when discussing the issue of energy production and consumption. That means an "energy economy" because it depends on "the circulation of energy upon the earth". The systems of human economic production and consumption have to be viewed within a larger context since they are only made feasible by the global energy flows. In general, analysts fundamentally misunderstand the material foundation of life, which causes them to misinterpret how we understand human economic behavior. They believe that we organize and distribute the outcomes of these systems in the most effective way possible and operate on the principle of utility, yet this is untrue. A political centrifuge oriented towards the use of material resources has been created to achieve short-term goals but fails to recognize –or it is convenient for their political ambitions not to recognize– the long-term purpose of our actions because they are promoting the immediate and more visible ends instead of the more important final ones.
Most economists believe that human activities are organized around utilitarian objectives, but in reality, our "activity, in fact, pursues the useless and infinite fulfillment of the Universe". It is important to develop the concept of a "general economy", one built on an abundance of energy as opposed to the concept of scarcity which dictates our immediate restrictions and goals. Let's understand the truism that life is possible due to an excess of energy in the Universe. Solar energy is therefore the primary source of life's development. It is superabundant and only a tiny part of it is enough to maintain the richness of life on our planet. Therefore, the origin and essence of our wealth are given in the superabundant radiation of the sun, which dispenses energy and wealth without any required return.

Este "techo" no es más que la cantidad total de dinero que el gobierno federal está autorizado a pedir prestado para cumplir con sus obligaciones legales existentes. Esto tiene que ver con el presupuesto nacional, que está en constante déficit y, por tanto, el gobierno tiene que añadir más deuda para cubrir TODOS los gastos deficitarios.
