Here are the nasty bunch.  

Lots of people are economically illiterate, and many even advocate economically illiterate policies, but this lot have influence as well.  

This means people will have died as a result of their actions.  I don't mean directly by firebombing.  I mean by starvation for lack of a GM crop, or a job making leather for the Gap.   

Most people alive today owe their very existence to capitalism.  Or to be more precise, they owe it to food, medicine and shelter developed by capitalism.  Under feudalism or communism their parents, or their parents' parents, would have died long before they had time to reproduce.  The price of reverting to such political systems would be human death on an unimaginable scale.   The small reversions that result from the advice of these papered sages advice will have caused death on a smaller scale.  

I wonder they can live with themselves.

Make Jose Bove serve his time
