They know exactly the importance of natural resources to the economy and the very survival of society.

That being said, Goal One is to abolish private control of (and profit from) those resources, in favor of government control (communism).

This battle is NOT about the environment. The ends, however, justify the means - no matter how many people die.

” Nancy Pelosi always makes statements that, with us, the environment is not an issue, it’s an ethic, it’s a value. Which is a nice way of saying, “I love the environment, but not when it comes to our own businesses.”

in 1996, Nancy Pelosi and her husband and fewer than 10 other partners wanted to build a golf course and country club outside of San Jose, California, called the CordeValle Country Club.

They never followed the environmental regulations. The ponds were never built for these endangered species. For seven years, they also failed to file any of the environmental reports required by the California Fish and Wildlife Commission.

A 2004 County Environmental Compliance Report found all kinds of environmental problems on the Pelosi’s golf course.

What does that actually mean in practical terms? Did they turn around and build this habitat and comply?

No, they solved the problem the old-fashioned way: they hired lobbyists and they got the environmental regulations changed. “
