Chinese Eco-Cities

opencity writes "The Guardian is reporting on a deal by Arups, a British consulting firm, to build four eco-cities in China. The cities are to be self-sufficient in energy, water and most food products, with the aim of zero emissions of greenhouse gases in transport systems. The press release hints at some of the technology."

What is a leftist?

Or is that just a label you toss around without really thinking about what it means?

The inhabitants of this marvelous new city will sure be happy to be relieved of the burden of making their own choices, not to mention the constant disappointment of finding out they made the "unenlightened" choice again.

So we have this right wing utopia where the government lies to us to scare people into going along with whatever retarded scheme they've come up with this week. That keep photographers away from military caskets coming back to the states so people remain "unenlightened" of the true cost of war. That sets up prisons in foreign countries so they can torture people without being bothered by that pesky Bill of Rights, and expounds that the best way to balance the budget and help the poor is to grant massive tax cuts to the wealthy.

After the last 5 years of failed, miserable, lying, incompetent Republican rule you have no right to criticize anyone else's government.

At least they're doing something.
