My question is why would any human being who is not in a position of power or great wealth (and thus it does not affect them directly to take this stance) be *against* environmentalism? Seriously, it does you no harm (in fact it may even help you) to say, "Yeah, I agree, shit needs to be cleaned up." Yet some of you are content to shrug at it and go, "Fuck the earth! I'm only on it for another 60 years, tops. It aint gonna fall apart before then." How irresponsible.

Its not about being against *enviromentalism* Halx, its about using the enviroment as a political and finianial tool while retarding human progress.
These are the same people who still say we shouldn't thin the forests despite the huge forest fires we have had the last years due to the current un-natural state they are in.
I think I'm safe saying most hunters and fishermen vote republican, and this is a big part of why Kerry is trying so hard to look like a hunter this election. Now do you really think these types of people want to fuck up the enviroment? I love to fish, I hate dirty water, and over use of natural resources. The enviromentalists offer me nothing.
Having spent more time with these people than almost any of you, I can state they see people as the virus on the world and will do anything which keeps people 'away' from nature, no matter what the need.
