Look, the business of war is part and parcel of the american economy and foreign policy. Weve bombed 35+ countries since the end of WW2 and overthrew probably twice as many.
We have anywhere from 700 to 1000 bases in more than 130 countries.
We are war.
Let's not act like Iraq is any different from all the other occupations, its what the US govt does. Luckily for them, the media allows for propaganda to be disseminated easily and without question. It allows for the whitewashing and distortion of historical events to be done within weeks and helps perpetuate the state of war that this country is always in.
You guys do a great job just like the IAC and other groups but mainstream media bulldozes through these messages and the brainwashing of the nation continues.
if people want to overspend for water, so what?
Id rather kids carry bottled water than soft drinks but I really dont care how people spend.
As for bottles and landfills, why has no one started charging for plastic bottles like they do for glass? Seems to me people would recycle them more if you added a 10-20 cents empty fee.
I understand worrying about the effects of waste and landfills but NOT buying bottled water is a knee jerk reaction and yes, it DOES take away from your rights to force all sales of bottled water to be closed off.
.
Find a way to get more people to recycle the bottles and dont worry how people spend their monies.
People blow money on tons of useless things, its THEIR prerogative, not the nanny state.
How about the built in obsolensce of technology?
Whats the average lifespan of a cell phones?
What happens to these?
if people want to buy a new phone every month, I wouldnt have problems with it if these were 100% recyclable.
Im not against protecting the environment, i am against protecting people from overspending. Im against having groups decide for me what I can or cant consume.
Im honestly not impressed by either sides in this debate and every once in a while when Im somewhere out of the home on a hot day and i stop by the convenience store to get something to drink, I will still take a bottle of water over a bottle of Coke (water and sugar) because its better for me and ITS practical.
Im not a 40 bottles a week kind of guy but there are times when bottles are very useful.
Problem is it is impossible to limit the use. You either allow it or you dont.
The HAMP program, using taxpaid funds, designed "very carefully" by Geithner of our U.S. Treasury, and practiced by such banks as the Bank of America is a total SCAM ! It was never supposed to "assist" the desperate American homeowner, but IS to be used to buy time (and money) for the bank to clean up its loans to show a better balance sheet for the stock investor. That our government participants in the SCAM, and encourages its use, thus causing further stress to unknowing citizens (often resulting in unnecessary foreclosures) is a disgrace and a crime ! The last time this happened was in NAZI Germany !
