Citizens united determined that political donations were a form of speech. The idea is that since verbal support of something is protected by the First Amendment, monetary support is also protected. So long as the donors do not conspire with the campaign, they can donate as much as they like through PACs and SuperPACs because the court views their money as a form of speech

Going back to the original story, I think Seuss was trying to make a separate point about responsibility and the like, through the modus of trees, not one particularly about capitalism, and environmentalism. So an obvious solution like what logging companies do irl would've messed with the intended message. But I agree, if environmentalism was the true aim, it should have brought up points like that. Although they do mention in the cartoon how long it takes to grow truffula trees. 10 months just to germinate, and many many years after that just to grow a bit, so creating massive orchards would've taken a long time especially with how quickly thneed corp. expanded from nothing.

It really depends on the type of tree, some only take a year or two to grow. Lumber and paper industries have actually created more forest then they've destroyed by using trees that grow quickly. The real problem is when big companies clear out already established forest to make room for factories or plantations.

It's hard to make a defining choice over who the lesser of two evils is. Voting in this system is fucked, there seems to be no purpose. - Why not implement a system where you show up, they give you a sheet, it has the top 30 important issues. You then check either "yes", "no", or "abstain" on each topic from top to bottom. Then you slide it into a ballot box. - I just hate this whole "he said this" "Oh yeah? Well HE said this!" The back and forth of politics is just sad, it's hard to get into. I have a feeling most people vote because they feel very strongly on one or two subjects and that makes them "left" or "right". Or there are others who don't want to let their family down so they just go with the flow. And finally, there are those who abstain from voting all together.

@@CyanWatercress4 Maybe on a world wide stage since the government heavily subsidies the production of processes food and bio fuels resulting in the destruction of the rainforest for example but not in the developed world such as the US or Europe. Planting a tree costs a fraction of a fraction of what they make as a profit out of the wood, replanting results in a huge long-term profit and it would be financially brain dead to not do it - which is why, like I said, the wood industry plants the mist trees and that is a fact. The wood industry does basically the same as the average farmer, planting and harvesting. More than half the forest land in the U.S is owned and managed by about 11 million private forest owners. Private forest lands provided 89% of the domestically produced wood and paper products in 2017. The income landowners receive for trees grown on their land encourages them to maintain, sustainably manage and renew this valuable resource. At the same time the net forest area in the U.S. has been stable since the early 1900s and increased by about 2% from 752 million to 765 million acres between 2007 and 2017. Net volume of growing stock increased by more than 5% over the same period.

***** Not to be rude but the tragedy of commons is a story promoting private enterprise. Essentially, the tragedy comes from the fact that since no ONE person owned the land, the collective could not bother to maintain it's upkeep. Rather, they kept using it and using it until there was nothing left where as if it had been privately owned, the owner would have stepped in. It's a good lesson but not exactly applicable in this sense as private ownership and big business are now the cause for the tragedy. When everyone owns something, people may be less inclined to clean it up (much like your roommate(s) despite that everyone would benefit from clean dishes, vacuumed rugs, etc.). However, when it is privately owned for the sake of profit and nothing else, the owners may (as shown through experience) will only care about the profit here and now. It's not a collective issue but a greed issue. When is enough enough and what will we sacrifice for it. And that's all of us, even the majority who support these institutions for a few dollars more. But that leads us to low wages and the like which stem for the previous problem of big business who outsources. ...I did not mean for this post to be so long and....rude isn't the right word...preachy maybe? Sorry.

ThatOneAccount931 The tragedy of the commons happens under communism, however, there is a way to get all the benefits of communism and capitalism without the downfall of either. It's called co-operative enterprise. It's a business model where every worker of particular business enterprise shares ownership of said business. All the workers vote on their wages, and on how to run the business. All the money that in a private enterprise would become the private money of the Capitalist, now is the pooled money of that whole business. Instead of blindly obeying orders and competing with employees for promotions, everyone would be able to freely discuss and debate about how things should be run, and there would be a work environment of community and cooperation and autonomy. Co-operative enterprise would be able to be conscientious of externalities such as how the environment is being effected by their business practices because unlike in a competitive economy where you have to compete at all costs just to achieve bottom line profit needed to survive as a business, a co-operative enterprise cooperates with everyone, and therefore has time to step back and discuss and be conscious of externalities. And the tragedy of the commons is avoided with this model since free riders would be getting a share of money that could be spread among the rest of you, you would have an economic incentive to fire free riders, meaning people would have an incentive not to be free riders themselves. And unlike communism, co-operative enterprise still respects personal property, so you could wake up in your private home, put on your private clothes, eat some of your private food for breakfast and drink some of your coffee and if it helps you work smoke a bowl of some good sativa and then drive your private car to a workplace that you co-operatively own and run with all of your co-workers. And there are different models of co-op, different models work better for different businesses. Some are a direct democracy, some elect managers every so often in elections (and usually vote for them to have slightly higher pay as an economic incentive to do well), some elect work councils, whatever works.

***** I do not want to be rude or come across crass but you are wrong. I am a Political Science major and an Economics minor, the Tragedy of Commons stems from an ACTUAL English event in which an edict allowed local farmers to use the "common land". These farmers, acting as rational individuals, chose to have their cows and sheep overgraze, thus having them grow fatter and more profitable. And as everyone acted in their own self interest and rationally, it over extended the commons to a point in where the land was unusable. And as far as I was taught, if someone were to own that land and see it was becoming unusable, they would step in and stop it. When you own something, you take better care of it. It's a fact. How many people go to parties and don't care about the mess they make, how many people litter on the beach, etc. You have no incentive to protect or clean anything if you'll only see a short term gain as the people who visit the area after you wreck it and mess it. It's not about selling a profitable enterprise as you can't sell it since it isn't even yours. However, if you can recognize that fact and realize it's a communally owned property than it's different. If it's recognize by the group as owned by the group than the group will try to preserve it. However, if no one or group will claim ownership who will protect it. There wouldn't even be forests (or as many at least) in America had Roosevelt not created the National Parks Service. He decided that they needed to owned so they could be preserved and saved. Humans are tragically short sited, if we would read the writing on the walls would there really be tragedies like Easter Island, the extinction of the Dodo bird, the latest American recession? I doubt it. Ownership isn't bad per say but it does has it's draws back. People forgo long term benefit for short term game. Like when you decide to get a good paying job after high school versus college and end up making less in the long run.

One of the big problems with the once-ler is that he didn’t grow any trees as he was chopping them down. If he grew twice as much as he chopped, then there would still be trees and enough resources for his company. However, the next big problem would be the pollution or where the trash goes. One way to help that is by making recyclable materials, but how would you get rid of the trash in a way that is environmentally friendly? Even the original Lorax admitted that it did not have all the answers, and going to extremes isn’t an option. Honestly, I wouldn’t know the answer between nature and the business world. You need both to exist and thrive as people.

We can look at reality. In the USA, it is the paper industry that plants the most trees, therefore the tree population in the USA is constantly increasing, despite the fact that millions of trees are chopped down every year. In addition, we have seen before, especially in the oil industry, attempts to make every drop of oil economically usable, which has btw succeeded, for which we can thank Standard Oil.

@@YangChuan2001 Standard oil is always painted a ‘bad’ company- and to some extent they were. But they also progressed the economy. And when when they were broken up- nothing really changed. Even though monopolies are an unfair advantage for other companies to take over the entire market- that’s the big reason why Roosevelt got involved. It wasn’t that he didn’t like businesses, he did! He saw the value in them. But he saw monopolies as unfair and they are.

@@V1nce_man Standard Oil controlled only about 60% of the oil market and their market cap was already in comparison shrinking. The "monopoly" argument was literally made up by their competitors to get rid of them. It is also not true that nothing changed - with standard oil breaking up oil prices were rising, the government also founded for the "war efforts" a state run oil monopoly which the oil industry used to further increase prices by artificially lowering production. The government never broke up a monopoly, they destroyed a hard competitor to make their own monopoly.

@@V1nce_man Yes it is true. In 1900 standard oil controlled bout 90% of the entire oil market, about 10 years later it was at 65%, mainly because many competitors emerged with the increase in oil demand, they were never a monopoly, they had a large market cap, yes, but they were not enforced nor was competition impossible. It was actually a relatively rare case that standard oil actively drove out competitors and when it happened, it happened because their oil was better and cheaper. That was mostly possible because standard oil had a better network for their oil distribution, better refining practices (they decreased the oil price from 26ct per gallon in 1870 to 8ct per gallon in 1885) and because they had better employees (that was duo to the fact that standard oil wages were mostly better then the competitors wages.) Now to my other claim that the government created an actual monopoly shortly after the broke up standard oil in 1911. 1917 the U.S. Fuel Administration was founded and in 1924 the government founded the Federal Oil Conservation board. Both of these administration were granted large control in form of regulations and guidance over the oil industry and they did everything they accused standard oil of like price fixing, the elimination of competitors and artificial decrease in production by increase of waste.

Conservatives are against using tax dollars to protect environment.

What a stereotype, one that's rather extreme. Why is bashing political parties such a meme? Be realistic, this depiction of yours isn't true, we recognize what's ours, and what's not, too. Like how false the Liberal stereotypes go, that they're lazy, uncaring drug users, yo! Take these portrayals with a grain of salt, I know Seuss would, as parties aren't at fault. United States or Divided Political Parties; there's a difference between the two of these. I judge people by character and that alone, not by other people's, it's each to their own. Autobot and Decepticon, Jedi and Sith, fairness means there's no one "side" to go with. We don't want to be dragged into your wars, and no longer support this system of yours.
