This is an important article, but I have to ask: If I believe that we should act in a way that is healthy for the planet and healthy and happy for all life on the planet, what opposite view would you have me consider? If I believe it is better to vote for a candidate who is committed to bettering the lives of the Middle Class and the poor while allowing the rich to keep 99 percent of their multi-billions, would you have me even consider for a moment voting for the candidate who is committed to making the rich even richer at everyone else's expense? A commitment to considering the other side is good, I think, but only if you also consider what issue you are considering. That said, though, this is still an excellent article.
