Article: This Time We're Taking the Whole Planet With Us "Civilizations rise, decay and die. Time, as the ancient Greeks argued, for individuals and for states is cyclical. As societies become more complex they become inevitably more precarious. They become increasingly vulnerable. And as they begin to break down there is a strange retreat by a terrified and confused population from reality, an inability to acknowledge the self-evident fragility and impending collapse. The elites at the end speak in phrases and jargon that do not correlate to reality. They retreat into isolated compounds, whether at the court at Versailles, the Forbidden City or modern palatial estates. The elites indulge in unchecked hedonism, the accumulation of vaster wealth and extravagant consumption. They are deaf to the suffering of the masses who are repressed with greater and greater ferocity. Resources are more ruthlessly depleted until they are exhausted. And then the hollowed-out edifice collapses. The Roman and Sumerian empires fell this way. The Mayan elites, after clearing their forests and polluting their streams with silt and acids, retreated backward into primitivism."

Article: A conversation with David Suzuki on his 75th birthday "We've got to work on a stable economy that is in harmony with the things that make it possible to have an economy. Which is nature - we've got to incorporate the economy as a part of nature and stop this suicidal notion that growth is the definition of progress. The industrialized countries have got to degrow their economies. We've got to shrink. We've been able to develop as economies because we've exploited the entire planet and the ecological footprint of a country like Canada is just massive, way beyond the land that we've got. This is the challenge for me - that we've got to have a totally different concept of economics."

Robin Hood Party

Who needs a new party? We do, the left needs a new party. The right has its - the Tea Party, so why can't we have on the left have a party. So I suggest we have a Robin Hood Party.

A party of taxing, the opposite of the Tea Party, the party of no taxing. So who should get taxed? Obvious corporations like GE who didn't pay any taxes last year and probably did pay any taxes for years past.

Let's not forget the super rich, they've moved the billions over seas so there's no hope of taxing any of their ill gotten gains because they don't exist in the eyes of the tax mavens in Washington, DC, mainly because they have made it possible for the super rich to play the game of make it here and there and keep it there.

So it's time to tax, or take it from the super rich corporations and the super rich super rich and turn around and give it to the poor. There's more and more of the poor in this country, it a growth industry if you can call creating more poor a growth industry.

So what to do.

Start spray canning the media with Robin Hood logos. That's a beginning. Create a Robin Hood Logo - maybe a hoodie with no face, just the hood, so when people see it they know what it means.

The hoodies rule.

Robin Hood rules.
