Look past the "market", move away the curtain and look what's really
behind it
if you have the capacity to do so. The planet is not inexhaustible,
unfortunately.

Name one thing, of which, the planet has ever run out. Trees can be
replanted and in a matter of years you can't tell they were ever gone.

We will not ever run out of oil. It will become more expensive but as it
does the motivation to create an alternative will increase.

That is what an free market does. Left alone a free market will cause all
materials to be used for the most efficient use.

to sell and let them do without our wheat and technology.


See above.


In other words, you have no answer.

Those $5 picture frames are what those folks have to offer, for now.


At least until all the forests are gone there, yes.



Uh huh, so you think they're going to deplete the rainforests making picture
frames.

So,you have no real answers, just leftist slogans.

Next come the accussations of greed.

How, exactly, does one pressure France?

Short of standing on their border and shouting at them in German.

On the contrary, I believe we have found the PERFECT method of pressuring
the French (and other so-called "allies") -- we have quite simply
disqualified them from bidding on any reconstruction contracts in Iraq.

This has been "Big News" the last couple of days, as if it were somehow
revolutionary to exclude disloyal nations from reaping the benefits of our
labors. Personally, I call it "justice".

Money talks.

Expect Bush to let them bid after they forgive all or part of the Iraqi debt.

Which should be called the Baathist debt since the Iraqi's never benefited from
it, and they should be collecting it from Saddam.

But still, when they make the cocession of forgiving that debt, Bush will let
them in .

Sadly, they never seem to let it alone, a clods like Jimmy Carter who think
they are smarter than the market cause havoc trying to "do good."

Cuban mahogany. We will never, ever see marketable trees of this again as long
as the world lasts.

The list of extinct animals is a lot longer and growing all the time.

That's like saying "plants are a crop", and is just as inaccurate. Nobody on
Earth is planting black walnut or black cherry trees. I doubt there will ever
come a time when people in the U.S. are willing to plant a crop that can't be
harvested for 150 years or so. Even with the slash pine, which is grown as a
crop in the south, the stuff being harvested today is junk compared to what I
used to be able to buy as 2x4s 30 years ago. Cuban mahogany (the stuff that
Chippendale worked) is extinct as a lumber tree.

The Indonesians are doing exactly that, and have been for at least 15 years.

Statistics from the US government no less
http://www.fec.gov/pubrec/2000presgeresults.htm
Bush 47.87% (50,456,897) vs Gore 48.38% (50,999,897)

Doesn't look overwhelming to me.

You are misinterpretting the data that the map represents.

If you do a web search you'll see reports of between 200,000 to 500,000
popular votes favoring Gore and of course an argument of what that
really
means.

C'mon, the USA Today election map at
http://mwhodges.home.att.net/usmap-large.gif clearly shows that the
country
OVERWHELMINGLY supported Bush. The fact that the big cities happen to
have
more dead voters just graphically illustrates who is GETTING the tax
money,
versus who is PAYING it.
