See, folks who believe in sustainability don't believe that you common people can take care of land or property in the "correct" way.

Do you think that slash-and-burn agricultural practices in rain forests constitute taking care of property the "correct" way?

Here's an example of what such practices look like near Rio Branco, Brazil, which is near the border with northeastern Bolivia.

Do you believe you have the right to control everyone, no matter what country they live in or who owns the land?

What's wrong with those slash & burn photos? Ever fly over the American heartland? That's what agriculture looks like. Why is that bad?
