GLOBAL CLASS ACTION CALLED FOR AGAINST “PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE”!

Following an article on “Planned Obsolescence” I scribed and posted last week, I've finally got around to retyping this e-ssay I scribed over 2 years ago onto my mobile phone, before I had the laptop. Then I messed-up and didn't scribe it in “mms” mode, so couldn't send it.
(Don't ask!)

GLOBAL CLASS ACTION CALLED FOR AGAINST “PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE”!

“Heavy contributor to environmental chaos”, say experts.

90% of all manufactured products have planned obsolescence in their design, creating massive waste and pollution.

An “All Product Scrutiny Commission” demanded by huge majority of global population.

“Ve sick auf ze zero-qvality crap in all ze stores!” harps Helmut of Hamburg.

“I don't li-ike it,” pipes Pauline of Peanutland.

“Whah th' feerk cayn't I git me sturff 'at'll last 20, 30, 40 goddamned YEARS?! asked Arnie of America.

People don't lend and borrow tools as much now, in-case they break.

“So we buy our own tools and handyman equipment, but can only afford crap-quality junk, that fail months out of warranty”, said Zanu of Zimbabwe.

Sheds globally, are in crisis, clogging and oozing with busted garbage, none of it more than 5 years old.

Kev of Canberra cursed “CRIKEY! It's consumption carnage out there!?”

Vlad of Vostok agreed: “Sank Gott it's not in Vodka, ziss P.O.!”

P.O. MUST GO!!!

P.O. MUST GO!!!

P.O. MUST GO!!!

RA-RA-RA!

YA! YA! YA!

A 2010 Footnote: As China, the biggest producer of “PO-ed products” this last 20 or so years (no blame, it brought them into the global marketplace), is 1, doing it's best to GO GREEN, and 2, has acquired economic independence, alas, to the point that they virtually OWN the USA's economy, it surely is time they scaled-back planned obsolescence.

A “big-ask” no doubt, but “All Things Considered”......

But one nation cannot be asked to lift it's game, without putting the same call across the globe...........

One must ask if the IMF have “ears with which to hear”?

That's almost it, from Omaxa bin News-Chop at

Cancel all foreign debt.

Globalise Land Rent.

Dissolve “national borders”.

Unlock the Land.....

Restructure agriculture, to scientifically-managed production, leaning heavily toward ORGANIC vegetarian food products.

Eeeezeee!
