Now that this has been deleted, part of it is gone from my self-search....so it is a bit better.

HOWEVER, this part of the post still shows up in my self-search (how is this possible since the post was deleted?):

calls the gradual removal of resource workers from rural lands "transition," envisioning gentrification with upscale retirees, modem gypsies and rat-race refugees in a boutique economy.
destroys the lives and jobs of rural resource workers, whose cries of anguish and anger are called "incivility" by the rich and powerful who are destroying them.

tightens their regulatory grip on private property so you can't use what you own—and you can't get compensation for what you lose.

increases the size of big government by taking more land for "nature preserves" even though government already owns nearly half the nation.

widens the rural-urban prosperity gap. While cities enjoy a booming economy, rural communities suffer severe economic pain caused by the "iron triangle" through bans on logging, mining, ranching, farming, and all forms of natural resource extraction.

perverts the media you rely on, rearranging your mind, making sure you believe what they want you to believe and crushing all opposing views.

dismantles industrial civilization piece by piece.

This website follows the money and the power and the harm and takes you along.
