There was none. People are merely the purveyors of pollution and assaults on Gaia, pesky pests whose natural proclivities must be reduced or even curtailed. Humans are the agents of all that is bad in the eco-fascist's world. It is little wonder then that they glorify a State that has done more to devastate the landscape, to spread pollution, and to impoverish human life than any individual or corporation in history. Independence, freedom, and personal responsibility are the enemies of their warped agenda.
Fear marks the core of their appeals.
Some extremists in the environmental movement would be overjoyed to see human beings totally wiped out through a virus or some other natural disaster. What we need is not zealotry to correct problems. Strict protection of property rights is the best way to deal with any environmental problems. The State has consistently proven to be the worst despoiler of the land and in precisely the degree to which it has abrogated property rights. We need to abolish the EPA and reverse its destructive policies.
