Conservation is anti-American
Can you believe the idiocy of the greens? They worship conservation.
They act live conservation is a worthy goal. Something to attempt with all your heart. People who don't conserve are looked down upon. Well, they are wrong. Conservation as a goal is just plain anti-American. America is built upon the good life and consumption. America is the greatest, wealthiest, most powerful, most moral and cleanest country in the world because the majority of Americans don't give a hoot about conservation. They understand that you don't get rich by conserving. You get rich by producing and consuming. That's capitalism. This is not to say one cannot produce and consume responsibly. That should always be a goal. But conservation takes the back seat. It is not a forefront goal. The problem with conservation is how the concept is understood by environmental myopic types. Conservation means cut back, do use so much, do something else instead, lower your standard of living. In other words conservation = socialism. So, the lesson is clear. Don't fall into the conservation trap. Put prosperity first and conservation a distant second. Fight socialism by producing and consuming. It's the American way. Wilbur Hubbard |

Conservation is anti-American
Corrected version: Can you believe the idiocy of the greens? They worship conservation. They act like conservation is a worthy goal - something to attempt with all your heart. People who don't conserve are looked down upon. Well, the greens are wrong. Conservation as a goal is just plain anti-American. America is built upon the good life and consumption. America is the greatest, wealthiest, most powerful, most moral and cleanest country in the world because the majority of Americans don't give a hoot about conservation. They understand that you don't get rich by conserving. You get rich by producing and consuming. That's capitalism. This is not to say one cannot produce and consume responsibly. That should always be a goal. But conservation takes the back seat. It is not a forefront goal. The problem with conservation is how the concept is understood by environmental myopic types. Conservation to them means cut back, don't use so much, do something else instead, lower your standard of living. In other words, conservation = socialism. So, the lesson is clear. Don't fall into the conservation trap. Put prosperity first and conservation a distant second. Never sacrifice prosperity for conservation. Fight socialism by producing and consuming. It's the American way. Wilbur Hubbard |

Conservation is anti-American
Conservation is inherent in the pricing mechanism of a free enterprise
laissez faire capitalist system. When the whales went nearly extinct, the price of whale oil rose dramatically and it became more cost effective to go to other sources. Price distortions and waste occur because of unwise government interventions in the marketplace. |
