Scale Implosion

- James Howard Kunstler -

It is my opinion that Kunstler, under the guise of environmentalism, may have a totalitarian agenda. His constant refrain, in article after article, is the need to 'manage' human affairs -- from forcing human beigns into mass transit to mandating alternative forms of energy. His initial support for the Socialist Obama is additional evidence for that agenda; his recent attacks on Obama reflects a view that the President hasn't gone far enough.

Take this snipet from the above article for instance: "...WalMart and its kindred malignant organisms ..." That people patronize WalMart to make the most out of limited budgets is of no concern to Kunstler. To allow an economy to go its own way (Capitalism) resulting in malls, parking lots, highways (all which 'mar' the landscape) is something which the Kunstlers of the world cannot stomach.

That the economies of the world are faltering is a fact. But the reason is just that which Kunstler would promote -- management by threat of force from governments. The only difference is that Kunstler would enthrone himself and his ilk as the new managers.
