Incidently, why is it that when a foreign national comes to the US and opens a business he or she is not deemed a representative of their country but if an American goes anywhere and does anything its suddenly a part of US policy?

Which orignal rain forest, Dax? The one the existed before the Olmecs cut large swathes of it down? The one the existed before the Toltecs cut large swathes of it down? The one the existed before the Mayans cut large swathes of it down? Or the one that grew back and is now being cut down by modern Brazilians?

That's the one!

Because that's the double standard we live by. It's OK to call a duck a duck everywhere but here.

LEM's mayor, Oziel Oliveira, had this to say when asked if Americans were welcome to farm in Brazil, "Absolutely. They're turning into Brazilians."

Volumes.

Brazil is a bunch of bullshit and from there just to get a driver's license or a state ID you have to go to 3 places. It is not like here where you just show 2 forms of ID.

Because U.S.A. rules!!!

Attempting to modify people's behavior by instilling fear and terror in them is very wrong, and should never be used to accomplish goals or preserve power. I think that's something we can all agree on.

I don't know how much rain forest is left, and how much is being destroyed on a daily basis, but apparently there are enough people in the world who don't care to make clearing a viable option.
