shut your fuckin' ignorant,ass kissing,PC cock-sucking pie-hole. Pete Seeger is an acoustic legend.You site McCarthy with a higher power? Fuckin' fascist!!! His voice is fine and he writes songs your feeble country club dwelling, politician-ass kissing mind? cannot and will not comprehend.What do you know about songwriting? Your the joke..a bad one(old and tired) at that!

I? have no problem with Seeger being a communist. I was replying to someone else's comment.

he has twice the talent you do?
By: damedoodie. on 19 May 12, 19:20:35
This talentless hack should get on his knees, and thank a higher power for McCarthyism! If if wasn't for the notoriety he garnered by being black listed, he would be an obscure footnote in music history. His voice sucks, his playing is lame, and his songwriting (and I use the term loosely) is? a joke!

I probably don't have to tell you how often corporations have bought land from those who DO care about its preservation, through illicit means for the explicit purpose of drilling,? mining or construction. Nature enthusiasts don't strike me as very entrepreneurial, at least not when compared to the likes of the oil, mining and logging industries. And as passionate as they may be, they simply won't have the resources to oppose the will of these institutions.
By: stp52x. on 03 May 12, 04:13:45
I don't doubt? the fact that they cherish nature. But given the context of deciding between nature and money, I am of the cynical position that they would pick money. In the greater scheme of things it seems as though it would be an inevitability that those with more money would eventually own more land, and use that land to make more money and these people would not place much of an emphasis on its preservation.

You seem to place a great deal of faith in PR. PR is effective only when people have a choice. It's common knowledge these days? that fast food is catastrophic for one's health, this hardly prevents people from waiting half an hour at the drive through in mcdonalds. Furthermore, corporations have multi-million dollar budgets allocated for the very purpose of molding the public's mind. Is BP still suffering from that spill?

I really don't think the largest groups of people are in charge in this nation. But, rather, the largest corporations. If the people were in control, then? we would see legislation passed to the effect. But rather we legislation to likes of Citizens United, and the health care bill (now more commonly known by the derogation..."obamacare") which was a disgrace to the very prospect of universal healthcare in this nation. It would have been more beneficial for the health insurance industry.

Wouldn't happen. Nature itself is a prized natural resource, and I disagree that wealthy people don't also cherish nature. In a free market system, people make more of? what they like, and people like nature. Also, free market property auction would allow owners of surface property (where nature mostly resides) to be different from subterranean (mineral, oil, tunnels) and above ground property. The surface owners would have tremendous incentive to be good stewards of their property.

My understanding is that the laws were different in different places at different times, but the government basically let companies? dump into the river. This has probably changed to zero tolerance these days since we have learned the bad effects of polluting rivers. A corporation could buy a river and destroy it, but given how PR is important, there is a huge disincentive. I personally favor privatizing the entire nation, which gives power, land, and control to a distributed group of people.

Funny how whether it is the US government, Soviet Union or China, you wonder if they really are in the people's best interests. Alan Moore has an interesting view that Anarchism exists today: (paraphrasing) people are fearful of Anarchy because the biggest mob takes control. He believes that the world we live in today, the biggest mob has taken control, and they happen to be this group of people in government and they are milking the life out of the rest of? us.

Read, and taken into consideration in? the answer provided above.

(From bottom up) "Capitalist places have better environmental stats" I don't think you're conscious of the contradiction in this statement. If a nation was truly capitalist, if all property was owned purely by private enterprises; a mountain top would not remain unspoiled; forests would not be standing; a square foot of fertile soil would not pass un-tilled; and the rivers would be depopulated. Every inch that could potentially? yield profit would be raped for this end.
By: stp52x. on 01 May 12, 02:07:41
(From bottom up) Imagine living in a country where every square foot that contains even a minor semblance of natural resources has been bored out, leveled, drilled, and pumped. I find the prospect entirely horrific. Furthermore, it's not the romantic, nature-loving population in? this country that controls the wealth. It is without question, the ruthless bunch who value nothing but wealth acquisition who do and would continue to own the vast majority of the land.
By: stp52x. on 01 May 12, 02:05:24
But I don't understand how the government allows corporations to dump in the rivers...Laws definitely exist against the pollution. Perhaps corporations then corrupt government officials into permitting them to dump. But that? same corruption could exist if a private individual owned the river. In fact, then the corporation could simply buy out the river entirely, and dump as they please. Furthermore, would we really want to privatize the entire nation?
By: stp52x. on 01 May 12, 02:01:32
That has indeed been the case. I don't know whether you're aware of the Aral Sea (it was once the 4th largest lake in the world) which, as a consequence of Soviet irrigation projects, has nearly disappeared. But I don't consider the totalitarian regimes of the Soviet Union and Communist China to be accurate reflections of the interests of the people. In every sense they were elaborate power structures themselves, struggling to maintain their foothold over society, much? like corporations.

Wonderful? song.
By: OutlawTomFantastic. on 30 Apr 12, 16:01:20
What you say about corporations dumping in rivers if there is profit motive is true, which is why common ownership of rivers and lakes is such a bad idea. The government will actually allow that. Libertarians and probably most conservatives oppose polluting too. But I mean, the most foul polluted places were socialist and communist. Check out the yellow river! Or Chernobyl. Capitalist places have better environmental stats. And the failures? in capitalist places are usually with its government.
