Congress Fiddles While the Planet Burns

We are told Nero fiddled while Rome burned, apocryphal, but we know our Congress is fiddling away on the Mueller Report, insignificant in the grand scheme of things, while capitalism destroys the planet and the US gears up for more war and pollution (Putin doesn't control our elections and Trump is not a mole for the FIS (formerly the KGB). "The biomass of wild mammals has fallen by 82%, natural ecosystems have lost about half their area and a million species are at risk of extinction – all largely as a result of human actions [i.e., the capitalist world market-tr], said the study, compiled over three years by more than 450 scientists and diplomats."
