@Kid Twist: Unless one is leveling old-growth forests, trees are a renewable resource. Objecting to cutting down trees is like objecting to cutting down corn.
People who think capitalism is the problem are either willfully ignorant or have serious mental deficiencies.
Bad people are the problem, and always have been, regardless of the economic system. At least with capitalism they have a chance to be found out and fail (like Enron). The real problems we're having now is because our wonderful socialist president isn't allowing the market to take care of itself, and is propping up business and businessmen who should otherwise have been out on their ass. But that is what socialism does.
You're never going to legislate assholes out of existence.
Damn it, cycling to work makes it really hard to read fake papers on the way. I s'pose I could prop it up in my basket. Why, yes I am saving the environment, one smug bike ride at a time. Off to enquire into bionic knees...
@MyNameIsChris: I used to think this feature sucked as much as Twitter, but no longer. Calling BS on the idiotic remarks of these preening media megalomaniacs is smart, funny and should continue.
