And on a forum I thought had banned political bullshit.
How can humans be bad for the environment when a good portion of the population is trying to help it? And you don't destroy environments, you alter them.

The video itself is fail for being overly simplistic, but as per the norm, I wanted to direct you to some fail comments, today made by mouthpiece200, who takes the "Who will built the ROADS?" argument to new heights:

With one single road I could gain the power to slice the nation in two, demanding vast payment from anyone who wants to cross.  Or I could just encircle your house with my road.  If you cannot see the power of roads to exploit people, there is no hope for you.

Did I say heights? Sorry, I meant depths. And if that wasn't enough, he digs in even deeper:

Competition in roadmaking would be the most absurd idea on the planet.  There is only one straight line to any given place.  Its entirely stupid to have two competing roads to the same place.  Most people would already figure this stuff out, but dirty anarchists are a little slow.

Yeah, just ignore little, inconvenient things, like houses, mountains, oceans, the curvature of the earth, and so forth...

Not to mention the time and expense involved in even the best-case scenario, and what other people will do once they figure out what you're up to.

Not to mention the homesteading concept of "right of way"...

His worst nightmare is already reality. With government controlled roads, that he said could cut a nation in half if controlled by one one person/group, but there can't be competition.

I guess that OP defending govco roads didn't read this:  http://www.cracked.com/article_19925_the-5-stupidest-things-ever-done-with-borders.html (this one ain't a fail, ftr).

This is from Being Liberal.



Anything behind it?

The States with the lowest per capita income are, from highest income to lowest: Oklahoma, Louisiana, Tennessee, New Mexico, Kentucky, Alabama, W. Virginia, Arkansas, and Mississippi.

The States that receive the most Federal Funding, from least to most, are: Maryland, Texas, Delaware, N. Dakota, Mississippi, Virginia, Hawaii, S. Carolina, Louisiana, and Florida.

As you can see, only Louisiana and Mississippi appear on both lists; therefore I would suggest that there isn't a correlation between the two things.

Does anyone no how to find out if this is peer reviewed? Also, the comments point out the flaws in this article. Now excuse me while I go drive my car into a ditch because playing violent video games has gotten rid of self control. Also, his moral engagement spectrum is bullshit, and really fucking subjective. Someone with more knowledge on how scientific studies work should point out the holes in this study. Also, any decision you make reduces your self control, it's called ego depletion.
