text: You are right, totally... It is an absolute disregard for the environment.\n\nThe Bush administration in 2003 effectively gutted the ‘no net loss’ of wetlands policy initiated during the administration of the elder Bush.  Wetlands help reduce the power of hurricanes and storm surges.  Wetlands were largely missing when Katrina struck, and contributed to the devastating effects of that so-called antural disaster...\n\nLets see - destroy the wetlands, don't fix the levees, duh... that is almost as obvious as - "I think the memo said something like Bin Laden Determined to Strike in U.S"  \n\nWe need to change - \n\nWe must transform human social relations so that production (and the technology accompanying it) develops in a planned manner that takes into account human need and, by extension, the care of the natural environment upon which human needs depend.\n\nciao
