"I call it the looters first rule. Isn't that fair? Didn't I learn that in Kindergarten or somewhere? You want greed, you see it here in Washington State in a myriad of confrontations that the corporate powers have thrust upon you. Take Initiative 933, please. It's like putting kickme sign on the back of Washington State. Pushed by out-of-state money grabbers and laissez fair ideological nutballs. This initiative defines anti-pollution laws as being a damage to private property. Thus it requires that We The People pay these corporate interests not to pollute our property, our common property: air and water and land and lungs." (Hightower then goes on to speak of the poisoning of people who harvest our food and declares that these are moral issues) Jim Hightower speaking about I-933 at Town Hall Seattle on September 14 for the Back to the Roots program of Institute for Washington's Future.
