Rev. Thomas Malthus quote on his purpose for “sustainable” cities:
“We are bound in justice and honor to disclaim the right of the poor to support . . . [W]e should facilitate, instead of foolishly and vainly endeavoring to impede, the operations of nature in producing this mortality . . . Instead of recommending cleanliness to the poor, we should encourage contrary habits. In our towns, we should make the streets narrower, crowd more people into the houses, and court the return of the plague.” Agenda 21 in 1798. (Robert Zubrin: “Merchants of Despair: Radical Environmentalists, Criminal Pseudo-Scientists, and the Fatal Cult of Antihumanism,” [New York: New Atlantis, 2012], p. 6).

– Thomas Jefferson

“…a single and splendid government of an aristocracy, founded on banking institutions, and monied incorporations. “
