The Water Wars

Do click on the picture below to see it in its full horror. Ripped from my New Yorker this morning.

First, the corporations go in. Then, we feel ownership of whatever commodity they are controlling. Then, when things get dicey, we send in the military. Oh yeah--Eisenhower warned us of the industrial-military complex.

Now it's water.

We've all seen Chinatown. Controlling water is nothing new. But as this turns global, watch us go to war with Denmark for Greenland.

Friends, please stop having babies.

OH MY GOD that is so creepy. However, I think we really do have enough everything for everyone -- but we don't manage it well. At all. Nor do we share nicely.
