Answering who gives a fuck....?
Comrades, friends...
There comes a point in a debate when it ceases to be a debate and
degenerates, instead, into an exercise in intellectual masturbation. Tell me
a worker, or member of an oppressed community, struggling to make ends meet,
who could give a fuck about Ecological Economics vs The Misevaluation
of Value?

Scott, your answer is ME. You made me want to laugh though. There's a lot
going on these days, and maybe this is not the best value at the time, to
talk value. But let me give you yet another answer, My Friend. Because you
got a lot of 'worker' crap up their clouding your view.
Some of my coworkers do occasionally show deep concern about ecological
economics and values. They go to church, sometimes volunteer on litter
campaigns,and the more radical ones here in Texas might even occasionally
talk about things like 'Smart Growth"! But just in Austin that.
If you had a kid, what do you think is the value of having sidewalks in your
community? Should we just be building more highways so that the the traffic
can get to the new malls? Sorry, I don't want to distract you from having
beer with the woikers, or talking up the football results, Dude. But we
woikers do like to talk about values occasionally. Especially them moral
values.
I even like to mention occasionally, that it's a shame the kids are growing
up with so much misevaluaion of value going on. And a lot of them tell me
their own stories abvout that, too. Then I sneak in a thing or two about
the Labor Theory of Value. It gets all the guys and gals just rolling
around in laughter.
Adelante! Tony
