resource economics and probably couldn't even if you tried to explain the concepts. That much is clear from the language of the post- it echoes the same hue and cry of the Reagan era "jobs" "people," etc., etc., which were just thinly veiled and as it turned out uttely false justifications for cuting beyond sustained yield (which eventually cost many, many people their livelihood- including whole towns) and externalized costs to other industries (fishing, for instance) and costs we the taxpayers money for road to support below market value timeber sales and for abatement and restoration that are later required.

Privatize the profits- socialize the costs- silence anyone who will speak the truth- typically Republican.

Call anyone who understands how all of the systems interconnect "cultists" because the issues aren't easily explainable in 30 second spots or without some education and critical thought. How typically American.
