Stoller:
Moral of the story:

Boycotts don't work [against pollution]; only state intervention can.

Gee:
whatever the 49 (or 29, or 89) wanted its tough luck - Stoller doesnt even seem to entertain SDFs consensual democracy - only statist guns will do. What the state wants goes, nanny knows best. 'What people want' is to be forcibly prohibited (and we all know how successful prohibition is) unless enough of them want it. The appropriate motto: Fuck the 49, and jail em if they say anything.

Let us keep in sight here that Gee here is DEFENDING pollution because his 'idea' of democracy (read: screw the majority; bottom line, my liberty is mine) would be subordinated to a rational ecological program.

Pretty vacant, eh?
