Preying on our worst aspect

"As more of our natural plant and wildlife communities are destroyed, the value of the remaining properties is increased."

This quote is from a Department of Public Works report on the Gosford Wyong Water Supply, circa 1980s.

This is just about what government is all about, don't you think?

Every one makes a quid and everybody's happy.

Who cares about the country?

It's a tribute to the persistence of some individuals that they still believe in Marxism, even Christian Socialism.

Karl Marx, Friedrich Engels, and Vladimer Lenin all thought communism would rule the world.

Alexander thought the Greeks would, Caesar the Romans, Napoleon the French and Hitler the Germans.

But they all failed.

There is an outright winner: Global capitalism.

It will always succeed because it fattens on the worst aspect of human and animal nature - greed.

When they eventually stuff up the world through their rapist exploitation, then they'll be off to the other solar systems.

There are new world's awaiting.
