"The ESA is a reckless buzzsaw used to destroy the Tree of Liberty’s protective shade. The Act has hurt citizens. In 2001, the Act killed four fire fighters. Farmers in Oregon lost their livelihoods because of bad science and the ESA."

And nobody will know unless we tell them; the "news" media have essentially spiked the story.

I believe it was Hayek who wrote: "It is possible that a fanatical religious group will impose upon the rest restrictions which its members will be pleased to observe but which will be obstacles for others in the pursuit of important aims." In the case of the Endangered Species Act, Americans face an Inquisition the likes of which has never been seen.

Concur. Eric Hoffer stated that, "The fanatic is not really a stickler to principle. He embraces a cause not primarily because of its justness or holiness but because of his desperate need for something to hold onto."
