| Welcome to Our Hoosier Board! Most of the posters here have been around for nearly a decade now. You'll find their knowledge and insight to be second to none. We have a really strong community and value everyone's opinions. Feel free to jump into any thread and voice your opinion with conviction. We love heated debates and even some fanbase ribbing from time to time. We pride ourselves on the lack of moderation needed to make this board successful. Please remember that we have been around many years and have an astute ability to tell the difference between an immature, childish, trash-talking troll and a passionate fan voicing his or her opinion. It is at the discretion of Jazen and myself whether any moderating actions should be taken at any given time. It's a very, very rare thing. In other words, no worries....you'll be fine!

I agree in principle, but I don't see it happening any time soon and likely not before most of the world's rainforests have disappeared. The supply for lumber is gigantic and prices have been through the roof for a long time, so unless new technologies drastically changes that by replacing wood with other products, the demand curve isn't going to negatively affect supply. Generally, I'm highly against government intervention into the market, but this is one case where I'm indifferent. I'd prefer that Americans realized the damage our wood consumption causes and looked to alternate means, but it's not happening, and government stipulations on logging companies are the only thing slowing down their destruction at all. |

aaron I've never really thought about the influence of special interests on big government vs. limited government. to be honest. I suppose you're probably right. But I do believe that the less a government watches over some sectors of private business, the less the special interests need to influence the government. They already have what they want. No limits, no regulation. |
