Horrific quote in Michael Moore’s “Stupid White Men” desktop calendar
“I think the economic logic behind dumping a load of toxic waste in the lowest-wage country is impeccable…. I’ve always thought that under-populated countries in AFrica are vastly under-polluted, their air quality is probably vastly inefficiently low compared to Los Angeles or Mexico City.” –Laurence Summers, chief economist of the World Bank in 1991
… these are the people running the world. No wonder things are so fucked up.
