<< So without them, the whole

oppressive garbage that can be thrown at anyone. >>
Hi! Robert this is true - and it is oppressive garbage - that is why I like
hearing about ecovillages and forming of environmentally friendly communities
that are more independent and value based. Where people work together to do
the right thing for each other and the Earth - the co-operative idea wherein I
know I need you but you are doing right for by me so that's OK - Corporations
want us to believe the oppressive garbage that we need them ONLY because it
benefits them financially - Greed rears its ugly head!
Again I believe this: "The love of money is at the root of all evil today!"
We have a great responsibility to teach our children that money will not buy
them happiness or the kind of world that is in harmony with nature! No money
will buy back the resources that the love of money will destroy!
Peace!
