A destructive cult!-----Corporate Sustainability Is An Oxymoron That Does Not Benefit Shareholders Or Employees
Corporate Sustainability Is An Oxymoron That Does Not Benefit Shareholders Or Employees
Excellent article from CFACT that ridicules Sustainable Development, which is Technocracy. The best way to return to business growth is to shut down the appeasement of the sustainability crowd. ⁃ TN Editor
"In recent years, aggressive environmentalists in government and the non-profit sectors have successfully pressured many firms to endorse positions that make no sense for their shareholders, employees or the communities in which they operate.
The roots of “sustainability” go back to a 1987 UN report, Our Common Future, in which the bureaucrats endorsed the idea that economics is a dismal zero-sum game.
Sustainability presumes that using resources now necessarily means having fewer to draw upon in the future, a very dubious assertion..."
Few businesses would publicly endorse central planning or back restrictions on economic growth.
But the rational fear of demonization, boycotts or even legal action by government or advocacy groups has encouraged many businesses to seek compromise by endorsing “sustainability.”
What went wrong?
To many business people and to the general public, sustainability is the buzzword for thrift, resourcefulness, and long-term planning.
Aren’t such qualities good for businesses and within families?
But sustainability has grown into an ideology marked by dark skepticism toward human ingenuity and progress.The roots of “sustainability” go back to a 1987 UN report, Our Common Future, in which the bureaucrats endorsed the idea that economics is a dismal zero-sum game.

World overpopulated?-----Half the World's Population Lives in Just 1% of the Land [Map] - Metrocosm
Half the World's Population Lives in Just 1% of the Land [Map] - Metrocosm:
The yellow region in the map includes every cell with a population of 8,000 or more people. Since each of them has an area of about 9 square miles, the population density of each yellow cell is at least 900 people per square mile, roughly the same population density as the state of Massachusetts.
Conversely, the black region is made up of those cells with populations of less than 8,000 people. In other terms, the population density throughout the black area is less than 900 people per square mile.

'14-Year-Old Girl Would Never Have Been Raped' if We Could’ve Done Our Job, Border Patrol Council Says:
"Judd said that half of all illegal aliens are successfully breaking into the United States without capture due, in part, to policies that are demoralizing border agents:
“Not only did we have the catch and release program that completely and totally demoralized the rank and file agents in the border patrol, but we also had an arrest rate of one out of every two."

Gay Activists Claim Gucci's Ugly Mary Jane Shoes are 'Cultural Appropriation'
"Gucci is the latest brand to come under fire for “cultural appropriation,” this time for a line of shoes released alongside the fashion label’s Resort 2017 ready-to-wear collection.
The accused shoes, according to gay activists, resemble shoes popular with punk LGBT scenesters in the 1980s.

Court strikes down Guam’s racist voting scheme | Power Line:
"Six years ago, retired Air Force officer Arnold Davis, a resident of Guam, tried to register to vote on a plebiscite regarding Guam’s future.
His application was rejected and marked as “void” by the Guam Election Commission.
Why?
Because Guam banned residents from registering or voting unless they are Chamorro “natives,” which to the territorial government means people whose ancestors were original inhabitants of Guam. Chamorros constitute only about 36 percent of the island’s present population.
Davis, a white man, is not Chamorro.
Therefore, he was deemed ineligible to vote.
Denying Davis the right to vote because of his race and national origin is an obvious violation of the Constitution and the Voting Rights Act.
Yet, as Hans von Spakovsky notes, the Obama administration did not lift a finger on behalf of Davis.
It neither filed suit against Guam nor intervened in support of the lawsuit filed on Davis’ behalf by our friend Christian Adams and the Center for Individual Rights.
Instead, the Obama administration gave Guam $300,000 to help finance the plebiscite..."

Hirsi Ali: Islamic Terrorists 'Don't Go to Liberals and Say Thank You' for Being PC | Fox News Insider:
"Islamists only seek a Sharia-compliant world, Ali said, in the wake of Wednesday's attack in London, a city with progressive leadership, "and whoever is in their way is their enemy."
She said anyone who does not understand that should not be legislating policy.
Carlson said terror groups believe Westerners do not have moral standing to critique Islam, and Ali agreed, adding that they sometimes will consider fellow Muslims illegitimate if they do not comply with their belief system."
