pulling up the drawbridge once you are inside the castle to stop others from getting any of what you have is a time honored tradition.it's what drives wealthy capitalists to suddenly become liberals once hey are done accumulating THEIR fortune.countries are the same way - the carbon crowd is trying to tell the developing world not to develop. fat chance. we want them to act rich before they are. it's essentially the equivalent of telling them to buy gucci suits and porsches instead of saving up for a house or reinvesting in their business. that's how wealth is destroyed, not how it's created. |
