Democracy/Oligarchy/Aristocracy/Dictatorship of the Environment
At last I have a chance to go into more detail. First of all thank you for a most enjoyable read and apologies if my previous comment came across as being rather flippant - what you have highlighted is a serious issue but it was memorably put across. What surprised me most overall is the similarity of thought, words and analogies although we are coming at the same problem from different perspectives. It is rather like two people witnessing the same accident but recording their impression in a unique manner from oblique angles.
Unlike me you cannot be accused of hypocrisy. By continuing to work in my job I am inevitably contributing to a continuation of the status quo. You have struck out and put your money where your mouth is by running your company to improve people’s lives. At the same time, your comments on all the points you criticise are ones that come from the voice of experience - a very brave stance to take. It's a case of 'been there, done that' and your subsequent advice to give bad things a miss carries a good deal more credibility than the pontifications of a politician. Hugo Bouleau
