I see a pattern ... and I was wondering if any else does. The fight between Enviro and Freedom appear to be disturbingly multiple choice test ... with only "two" choices. Full on Enviro .. or Full on Freedom. With no "C: None of the above" .. or even blanks to essay-write your own answers. Only two candidates on the ballot.
The full-on enviro dudes .. they want full-on Soviet Union control of the mass populace. Therefore, with freedom, the INDIVIDUAL LOSES. The full-on "freedom" dudes ... freedom I believe in, but who are the ones doing the shouting?? THE CORPORATE GUYS!! As in "FREEDOM TO POLLUTE" "FREEDOM TO DUMP IN NIMBY (not in my backyard)" So you know what happens?? If "they" (corporate) wins, we end up getting crappy air, water, soil. So you know what?? ONCE AGAIN ... THE INDIVIDUAL LOSES!!! So let's see ... here's my voting ballot ... (A) ... THE INDIVIDUAL LOSES .. or (B) ... THE INDIVIDUAL LOSES. What kind of choices is that????????????????????

So, advocates of freedom develop the idea that all enviro discussions are just there as a pretext to attack freedom without regard for its value, and they, in turn, are sometimes shallow and refuse to acknowledge the science or need for caution that science seems to imply. So, I think the hard innovation will come when we can figure out a way to get our system to respond better to pressing worldwide environmental issues, *if* they're genuine, without sacrificing hegemony of nations or individuals. And it would be nice if we could have a discussion of this and figure it out sometime before 2414 or whenever. ===== Get your free newsletter at http://www.ezinfocenter.com/3122155/NL __________________________________________________ Do you Yahoo!?
