Needs - in the sense implied by what you say - are very basic and are satisfied by a medieval economy. That really can't be what you mean, but it's what you are saying. There needs to be a balance of desires against consequences. Currently wrt air travel its baised way too far to the former. I'm not saying ban air travel but I am saying that the presumption that constant growth must always trump anything else is ********. There are enough aircraft flying into and through the southeast already. If the air industry isn't satisfied with that then tough ****. Screw them. When if ever there are street protests and riots about people not being able to book a last minute break to Ayia Napa for a hundred quid I might change my mind. But somehow I don't see that happening. -- Spud |
