BLASTING through borders
ZH reports something that MYSTERIOUSLY hasn't been noticed** by the "green" "left". Volkswagen and Nissan have been using hail cannons to pre-empt hailstorms over their huge fields of stored new cars.

ZH commenters are no better than the greenies. They're nominally "libertarian", nominally in favor of property rights and non-aggression, but they miss the point entirely.

Pollution laws have been around since Hammurabi, and proper pollution laws are STRICTLY about property and non-aggression. If your business creates a lot of dirt, you're supposed to keep it on your own property.

Modern pollution laws, since the founding of the Gaian religion in 1974, have been solely about eliminating all real jobs and infinitely enriching the banker tribe. So VW's actions are not only permitted but required by modern Gaian laws. Ruining farmers is a prime goal of modern pollution laws.

The old approach required farmers to fence in livestock, and required oil companies to contain their waste in ponds, which was the normal method until EPA decided that it was better to BLAST the waste into the ground to make earthquakes which can then be blamed on the oil companies.

VW is explicitly and WILDLY violating this old principle of keeping your dirt to yourself. Instead of simply building a roof, or wrapping the cars, VW is BLASTING the storm clouds, ruining the weather for everyone downwind of the plant.

Halting normal rain IS POLLUTION AND AGGRESSION just as surely as dumping sulphur dioxide or lead or bombs on the downwind population. Diverting a river is a traditional and modern ACT OF WAR. Diverting rain is identical to diverting a river.

VW belongs to the Sorosian open-borders mode.

I AM THE UNIVERSE.

VW's need for maximum share value is the only thing that matters. Boundaries do not exist. Nearby people do not exist. Their needs are Negative Externalities.

= = = = =

Non-Sorosians build roofs and fences and ponds to protect themselves and to protect others.

Sorosians literally BLAST through all borders to protect share value and obliterate the universe.

= = = = =

** Hasn't been noticed: For instance, look at the website of The Ecologist, longtime advocate of "environmental justice". They are protesting VW's cheating on diesel, but nothing about ruining farmers.
