Our Shadow Government. If President Biden is mentally and physically incapable of making decisions, who's running the Executive branch of the government? Will our generals take control if the U.S. suffers a military defeat? Will assassinations of our leaders be the result of an economic crisis? Will electric vehicles stop global warming? Are fossil fuels running out? Are we destined for extinction like the dinosaurs? The consumerist economy has negatively affected the natural world. The false promise of profits.
