35. Not only that, the lie (or wilfull ignorance) that there is room for infinite growth
Edited on Thu Dec-16-10 03:08 PM by Amonester
WILL result in the final destruction of HUMAN LIFE itself (as well as too many ANIMAL AND VEGETAL LIVES in its demise) on this already over-exploited PLANET, and this, in an accelerating short period of time ahead.

Either they, collectively, are too stupid to realize such 'natural' and inevitable consequence of their economic ideology, or, if not, they might already know that it's too late already, that the damage done cannot be repaired by anyone, no matter how, that there is nothing to be done to avert it, so they collectively 'decided' to ignore it, and to adopt the 'take it while you can' attitude (since they think THEY will die before 'it' happens).

The constant 'we MUST favor GROWTH (and therefore, JOBS) obsession' (depending on WHAT KIND OF 'growth', if its not aimed at 'repairing' the HUGE damage DONE) will lead this species to its own extinction.
