Greed is *good*. Selfishness is next to godliness, I always say...

Naw. Can't pave the planet. There's water over most of it. Besides,
there are a too many trees in the way.

Socialism is feudalism.
...and *your* point is?
Environmentalists should just *buy* the earth, if they want to save it so much.
With their own money, of course.
