JohnS shot a few holes in the mythical premises of the spiel. Charles 
Walters spends most of his latest 'Newsletter' (Acres USA October 
2001) debunking the same myth in his continual quest to get the 
'parity' message across.

Mollison alluded to the problem in his Schumacher Lecture many 
years ago. Margrit Kennedy (German Permaculturalist, etc) has been 
hammering the myth of faulty economics for ever:

I heard Michael Rowbotham speak during his recent visit to New 
Zealand, his progress has been from environmental conservation to 
financial reformer.

http://www.perfecteconomy.com is a easy backgrounder that 
covers the topic very nicely. For a fuller picture hunt out Thomas 
Robertson's 'Human Ecology' an obscure but brilliant book imo. It is in 
the American library system or http://landru.i-link-2.net/monques.

ps: I have no capacity for rational debate (besides I'm extremely 
slow at a keyboard) so don't expect much more from me. Either my 
theme resonates or not... check the first paragraph at:

pps: Who's behind the Worldwatch Institute??
