First off I'll take it you've never read what it was like to live in a fascist state to make such a ridiculous remark as that
Second this is correct
Third he is right that we cannot cling to old models that no longer serve the world best. Look at the way America is still a slave to John Locke's philosophy on land ownership(no not the Lost character, the British philosopher) when even Locke himself said the established systems and governments need to be fully dismantled and rebuilt every few decades to cope with changing times. It's quite clear that when it comes to something like climate change, which is a world problem, that systems based on nations being isolated won't ever work, Copenhagen does indeed show that in it's fullest light.If people did not buy bigger cars, bigger houses further from town, and buy more and more food that goes to waste, there would be less climate change.
If people did not borrow so much, banks would not lend so much, and taxpayers would not have to bail them out.
If people did not buy narcotics, there would be no international drugs trade, no drug lords, and no Taliban either.
I personally think the article is fantastic
