You are aware that there have been cases of very significant environmental damages caused by mining companies these past few years--companies that support regressive governments, the murder of people associated to union groups. Speaking against a piece of legislation that would still allow a modicum of control on the behavior of corporations... Unlike you, I believe that doing nothing would only encourage those ideologues. If we do nothing, they will not stop what they are doing, they will continue to spread their ideologies which can sometimes be very damageable.
