When I majored in economics (and ass scratching), the profs always talked about either or issues as Guns or Butter choices. But the answer was always the same. People are happiest when they maximize BOTH options.
Would it not make much more sense to slow down on resource consumption? Should we plan on replenishment engineering? Today, people seem are more interested in a fight, than a solution.
For example: we need more nuclear power plants. Much less pollution and much greater public safety. Nuclear power comes as close to a maximum solution as anything I have seen. Yet fools wish to littler the landscape with windmills. Those stupid things kill birds by the bushel baskets full. They will NEVER produce anything close to the needed power levels. Windmills are ugly. Yet, I have seen windmill infomertials on the nightly news till I'm ready to puke.
I assume we will never all get along. But, could we agree to try and achieve max-max solution models?
