The problem with whackos is they don't understand the principle of unintended consequences. I like horses too, but I guarantee you if we all went back to horse drawn power the result would be MORE CLEARCUTTING, MORE FELLING OF FORESTS, AND LESS DIVERSE ECOSYSTEMS, just to feed all the horses.

There is no free lunch.

PS, I'm not sure whether whackos are primarily fed by the Democrats, or the other way around.

Notice I didn't say "environmentalists." Real environmentalists understand that there is no free lunch.
