"Though men now possess the power to dominate and exploit every corner of the natural world, nothing in that fact implies that they have the right or the need to do so."-Edward Abbey

Invisible Empire
"The government, which was designed for the people, has got into the hands of the bosses and their employers, the special interests. An invisible empire has been set up above the forms of democracy." -Woodrow Wilson

Too Little Too Late
QUESTION: Why is there never enough money to oversee and inspect before a disaster, but somehow, the funds miraculously become available after the shit hits the fan? Now, inspectors and experts are everywhere. Too late, the harm's done. "We will keep our boot on their neck until the job gets done." says Secretary Salazar. Well, not exactly... Let's face the facts. It's the U.S. middle class that has the boot on their necks. We all know that BP isn't going to be paying for their cleanup. The U.S. taxpayer will eventually be responsible to pay in a million big and little ways over decades to come. Our government's energy strategy and human greed are bankrupting our country. And, as usual, the environment is destroyed and lives are lost; all for profit. If the onus of fiscal responsibility is going to be placed on the necks of the taxpayers, let's make sure we're going to get something in return.- e.l.f.

Here Ya Go
"When Fascism comes to the United States, it will be wrapped in the American flag and will claim the name of 100-percent Americanism."-Sinclair Lewis, 1948
Vatican Justice
The Catholic Church has spent two millennia demonizing human sexuality to a degree unmatched by any other institution, declaring the most basic, healthy, mature, and consensual behaviors taboo. Indeed, this organization still opposes the use of contraception: preferring, instead, that the poorest people on earth be blessed with the largest families and the shortest lives. As a consequence of this hallowed and incorrigible stupidity, the Church has condemned generations of decent people to shame and hypocrisy—or to Neolithic fecundity, poverty, and death by AIDS. Here, in this ghoulish machinery set to whirling through the ages by the opposing winds of shame and sadism, we mortals can finally glimpse how strangely perfect are the ways of the Lord.-Sam Harris
