With regard to our treatment of this planet and its resources, I'm reminded of Forrest Gump's words, "Stupid is as stupid does." I don't care who thinks what to do with world economics and geopolitics, because what really matters is the world we leave our children and their children. This place we live was meant for all creatures, great and small, and not for an elite group of people connected with politics or multi-nationals. Spin it any which way, and the lower right had corner shows that we are making BIG mistakes with our home: Earth. Just a general broadside--wasn't aimed at anyone.
