Why does anyone associated with doing good for the earth or being a community organizer for the less fortunate have to be thought of as a socialist? And why does the term socialist have to be thought of as a negative in the first place when capitalism's greed has been more of downfall to society, the environment, and the majority?

Being Good does not always receive praise

Nature and Issues

I'm a guy who grew up on a pig farm, became a camp brat, received an undergraduate degree in sociology, became a vagabond and saw the world, and finally lived in LA which drove me to investigating the limits of our impact, escaping the commuting lifestyle, driving daily into the "valley" and the disturbing smog hindering me from seeing the mountains, and provoking me to become a environmental educator. Besides that, I'm a father of two wild and crazy boys and I want them to be able to hike amongst redwoods, catch salmon in Lake Michigan and swim at Coney Island and I want them, and everyone else in this world, to become a citizen "that is knowledgeable concerning the biophysical environment and its associated problems, aware of how to help solve these problems, and motivated to work toward their solution."
