About the Book
Fact saturated, agency by agency, program by program, species by species and chemical by chemical, Death by Ecology tells the story of how the Green Regime, especially in California, actively opposes the principles and institutions of the American Founders. In pursuit of eco-topia, environmental lords of the air, water and land routinely violate the unalienable rights, life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness of the Declaration of Independence as well as the explicit protections of individual rights in the Constitution and its Bill of Rights. The Green Regime in spirit and practice is contemptuous of American civilization and concepts of self-government. Acting as if it were representative of either the divine rights of a sovereign King or a feudal noble lord, not rather than ruling by the consent of a governed free people. Operating under absolutist rules, regulations and laws, environmentalists care little about the right of ordinary citizens. By their words and deeds, the sovereign lords of environmental organizations and their regulations reveal their values. They hate capitalism and freedom as proved by their assaults on automobiles, gasoline, cheap electricity, affordable single family homes, cheap food, private property, corporations, agri-business, factories, "dirty" jobs, hunting, mass recreation, industrialization, the U.S. Constitution, American civilization. In short, the natural rights of the Declaration of Independence of life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness are loathsome things. The Green Regime hates human beings eating, drinking, bathing and breathing. The Regime insists it is the "green" saviors of Mother Earth from human desecration of air, water and land. Advocates of an eco-utopia, they call themselves progressives or socialists. Their Eco-topian ends justify totalitarian means. These policies have destroyed the economy of California and the rights of its people. Environmental advocates declare cheap food grown on large farms with pesticides is dangerous. They insist milk, cow farts (methane), is destroying the ozone layer. They hold contempt for affordable "ticky-tacky... housing tracts" where "very fourth house a carbon copy." They attack the "perverse love" of the family car. They take private property, homesteads, and give them to favored species and a privileged few humans. They claim plastic straws, bags and tiny hotel shampoo bottles are polluting the Pacific Ocean. They deify mud puddles, potholes, and ruts in the road as sacred vernal pools for fairy shrimp. They poke flags in dry streams and declare them "waters of the United States." They insist they and only they are scientists, but they refuse to recognize inconvenient evidence from true sciences-- meteorology, biology, medicine, pharmacy, physics, chemistry. Like King George, the Green Regime has "sent hither swarms of officers to harass our people, and eat out their substance."The Declaration's answer is "when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security." The Green Regime, buried deep within the American Republic, particularly on display in California, needs to be overturned. The rule of law will suffice providing enough citizens have the courage to just say no in public, at the ballot box and demand those reforms in law known to all who deal everyday with Green Tyranny, particularly west of the Sierras in California.
