Re: media bias is destroying the environment



Rexcetera, I hope you don't mind . . . but I liked this posting so much, I
had to bring a few "friends" in to take a look at it.  I think they could
learn a lot.  I also have some more examples for you below your post.

"rexcetera" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote in message
news:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
 Many news stories cover government attempts to stop "price gouging" and
 none even hint that there is another side, that gouging is good, that
 anti-gouging laws shouldn't exist, that they defeat market pricing, or that
 the laws cause shortages, poverty and misery.

Many news stories repeat bureaucratic claims that seafood is "overharvested"
 and need more government laws to limit catches, and never mention that the
 problem is government ownership of water, defeating supply and demand
 incentives, soggy socialism, and the need for private property rights that
 would enable farming and market pricing.  (if that wasn't bad enough there
 are rarely stories on farming of seafood, and the stories NEVER make the
tie
 in to the lack of property rights in government waters that causes
 overharvesting in government waters.  It is unfortunate that even the
 seafood farmers can't make the tie in, having come from government
schools).
 Has a seafood farmer on land ever suggested that he should be able to own
 areas now owned by government in order to farm in water currently owned by
 government.  No reporter has ever asked such a question).

 Many news stories blather about "water conservation" and watering
 restrictions even glorifying police-state patrols and enforcement, and the
 stories never even hint that the problem is government ownership of water
 systems, lack of competition, lack of market pricing, defeating supply and
 demand, that would solve all the brainless coverage made by the reporter in
 his socialist story.

 those are 3 easy ones I see a lot.  I could go on and on.  I want to ask
 everyone to compile a collection.  Please send in more examples of media
 blindness about capitalism, free market economics, pricing, property
rights,
 which all prove that the first amendment is incompatible with government
 schools, and the latter must end.  It  seems that our schools accomplish
 exactly what soviet schools accomplished.  The media prove that government
 schools produce socialists who know nothing about free market economics.

Well Rexcetera, I can start with really any corporate subsidy.  This is the
first thing from which the government should remove their grubby hands.
Then maybe the post office.  I live out in the sticks . . . and at least 2
Fed Ex trucks and 3 UPS trucks pass by my house every day.  Why should it be
ILLEGAL for them to deliver a letter for me under a certain weight???  US PS
is a bunch of fearless deliverers of mail?  Rain, snow, sleet or hail?  Bull
shit.  I am lucky I get my mail 5 days out of the week all year long.  Yes,
I'd like to hear more about this in the media . . . Yet they'd say "but look
at all the jobs that would be lost", not even thinking that someone still
has to do it, just not the government.

Public schools are an admitted joke and you'll never hear that in the media.
Look at public education at all levels, I think they actually make people
more stupid then if they didn't just tell them to get a job at age 6.  An
education is going to cost X amount of dollars.  Do we really want to hand
that amount of money over to the *government* who can't even protect us from
some lunatic rag head sitting in a fucking cave?  Yeah, great idea.  I say
just give the money directly to whomever can educate children and be done
with it.

Hmm, what else . . . Social Security is the exact same thing.  Retirement
and living a healthy life is going to cost X amount of dollars.  Period.
Again, why give that money to the government so that they can waist half of
it before you get it back?  People have to work hard and be responsible
adults in order to survive and the government should allow them to do so
without burdening them with taxes.  My *friends* will love this statement
and you defiantly won't read that in the new york times.

Well, I think that's enough for now.

The heathen back there, pound the wall.
