At New College, Richard Heinberg used to say, "We can no longer afford the rich."

In other words, "you little people need Us Big People to loan, tax,
charge, and feed you".

Bullshit.

We Don't Need Them.
They ARE the reason we are in the situation we have now.
People throughout the world need to shrug off the yoke of "civilization"
(city-state-based living as a priori) and choose to walk away and
possibly die doing so.
If a true environmentalist would commit suicide, does that mean a true
humanist must commit ecocide?

I'm just wondering, because that is what Vilsack and everyone else in
government is selling.

P.S. Borlaug was a scientific fool who did more to destroy the planet
than almost anyone, and he did it hand-in-hand with "civilization".
If you have too many cows to survive the winter on the food and shelter
you have, do you buy more cows and keep all of their calves? That's
basically what Borlaug did with humanity.
