Let the Forests be Forests
by Steve Kelly
From the very beginning, government has existed to facilitate the distribution of stolen treasure, and then protect the most powerful serial looters at the expense of their victims.
Instead of bringing these financial criminals to justice, the current regime finances the pioneering of new profit zones to benefit wealthy investors, corporations, paid collaborators and their government agency sponsors.
Consider what would happen if government all of a sudden quit sponsoring non-viable business enterprises that depend on converting public resources into profits.
Keep in mind that many of the same financial interests – robber barons – that originally exploited the western frontier will never voluntarily stop liquidating Earth’s natural resources. This is why pressure from Wall Street and K Street on Congress, state governors, the president and judicial system is relentless in pursuit of deregulation and privatization of everything public.
