This is a normal post Perhaps you could take some time to explain how it doesn't?

This is a normal post Its really, really simple
People need a place to live. They also need to work.
They can't afford to live where they work.
Therefore they need to live somewhere else and travel to work.

But the green lobby has decided that travel is bad and that it should be taxed to buggery to stop people doing it.

This is a normal post Peoples needs now are not long term needs, or rather we need to change
Dressing our problems up in the clothes of "we need a low carbon economy" is ignoring the elephant in the room that oil WILL run out, and we'll all be fucked if we're still living in the current set-up.

Shifting the current economic problem in to "well people just need to travel MORE!" only makes our future more bleak.

This is a normal post There is such a thing as "personal responsibility" here, and setting an example
(as well as developing and pioneering the technology that others can use to follow our example).

Otherwise it is "do as we say, not as we do".
