No new posts Socialism and the limits of our environment This forum has been set up to discuss the failure of socialism to confront the physical limitations of our environment and its disastrous ecological, social and political consequences, both in ostensibly 'socialist' countries and in capitalist countries. Much of it will refer to the critique of socialist theoretician Leon Trotsky's failure to grasp the physical limits of our environment in the article of the same name on this web site.	1	4	By James Sinnamon 3 years 1 week ago
No new posts Quality of Life
No new posts Dog barking and other forms of acoustic assault The sound of noise such a the barking of dogs, car horns, loud music, whipper-snippers (particularly of the 2-stroke variety) degrades and sometimes destroys the quality of life of many. Although the aggrieved are the victims of such acoustic assault, their is still another side to this question. The purpose of this forum is to spell out the health and psychological issues at stake, what, if at all, the necessity for creating noise unwanted by others may be, and how, people of good will on both sides of this controversy can come up with an approach that could be advocated within our political institutions that would meet the reasonable needs of those on both sides of this controversy.	1	32	By JohnT (not verified) 3 years 1 week ago
