I hope this will stop the whole nonsense in its tracks, but I fear some folks are already so well entrenched as far as money is concerned that they are not going to let this died the ugly death it deserves.
I always follow the money. Take any issue, no matter how controversial or good sounding, can always be traced back to its beginning by following the money.
I was an engineer for a company that specialized in the creation of technological answers to environmental problems. What we hadn’t figured out at the time is that it was an issue and not a problem. Even though we came up with working and proven processes, we were unmercilessly attacked by the environmentalists we strived to help.
We subsequently realized the only thing we were helping them with was lighteneing their wallets since they no longer had an “issue” as a means to raise money that went to “raise awareness” of their personal bank accounts. It operates the same way many charities do by only giving a small portion of the donations to the issue they represent while most goes to “administrative costs” and “processing fees”.
We also learned a sizable monetary support mechanism for these groups were none only than the corporations or businesses who would have lost a revenue stream should the “issue” have been resolved by one of our projects.
