And don't try to stop progress; it's the only hope the earth has of seeing clean industry, short of exterminating mankind.” PeopleIfsTryingYearsLightKidsTodayEarthTurnsNextEnergyRoomsProgressSeeingEconomicMankindPlanetsTheorySourceDependsIndustryCleanCorruptionGlobal WarmingScareNext YearBansLiving OnTurn OffEnergy SourcesHotter Author:Doug Casey
