It's trying to appeal to people that aren't doing well financially by saying, "If we could cut down more trees, mine for more coal, drill for more oil, and killing more animals, your life would be better." There's a limited amount of resources, especially the non renewable type like oil and coal. There's an increase on demand as the population explodes. Regulations are a necessary thing. If I wanted THE WORLD to fail, I'd let these industries run unchecked. I like the cheap attempt to play at our humanity by mentioning Steve Jobs, too. Cute. |
The environment could be protected enough through property rights. Unfortunately, Government (started in Britain) threw out property rights for the "public good" during the Industrial Revolution - meaning that the damage done to your property by pollution was allowed because the factories were good for the economy. Now, they are going even further and taking away our property rights even more, to protect the environment. Go figure.
