Elizabeth Warren is a four-square, all-around liberal.
There is a theory alive and well in the field that the Harappa and the Maya Indian civilizations collapsed from environmental carelessness and
overly intensive use of the soil.
So little were they interested in sacrifice for future
generations that they left no more behind than Ozymandias.
People so little regarded the good of others that slavery existed
in all societies including all major civilizations until the mid and late 19th
Century.
The 20th Century was no better, though the forms
of man’s disregard for man have been not quite the same.
How likely is it humanity will really make the vast
sacrifices leaving fossil fuels unused in the ground would entail, including
the massive suffering and loss of life, not even for the sake of other living
humans and not even so that future people will be better off, but so that in
the future there will be better off people?
And what will future people ever do for you?
