He's been doing shit like this since he got in. That motherfucker has been dicing up our natural resources and giving them to industrialists since day one.

    Trump's greatest weakness is all-or-nothing thinking. In some cases, it is his greatest strength (his defense of individual rights), but in cases like this, he is incapable of recognizing the benefits being provided by the status quo. He shares the near-universal blindness of all of our elites to the difference between individual economic freedom and corporate economic freedom. I've heard this discussed almost nowhere. The first is very valuable; the second is the single most toxic philosophy of the past 150 years. The policy described in this article will allow corporate power untold leeway for destruction. A huge step encompassing concrete environmental degradation.
