Re: Won't someone think of the great, great, great grandchildren.
"More likely our descendants will be too hampered by the ecological fallout of the rampant unrestrained capitalism of the last few generations - plastic poisoned people and plastic poisoned oceans."
Rampant capitalism? Was Gordon Brown nationalising private debt capitalism? Real capitalism would have seen the banks fail. Over the last couple of decades the state has spent ~45% of GDP - that's a command economy - and if you take how much of that GDP is actually borrowed money - the state actually spends ~70% of what we actually EARN as a nation - not the silly GDP nonsense. This is most certainly not capitalism. The biggest problem facing mankind is not plastic bottles - it's the third world doubling its population every 30-50 years - or don't they need resources? But of course an ecoloon would dare not mention the bleedin' obvious - coz that would be wayyyciist!
