Bussed in environmental astroturf?
No problem. Just cut off the fossil fuels to these cities.
TX, OK, and LA really should plug all pipelines taking our oil and gas to these parasite northern and eastern states. Let them freeze in the dark until they get the idea that their states should contribute to the energy pool, not just take out what others put in.
During Japan’s nuclear scare, there were noises being made that we could build more nuclear plants IN THE SOUTH. So again, the South should be colonized for cheap energy that is potentially risky, while we send safer fossil fuels north in the transmission lines so that no views are spoiled for the Yankees. Sorry. We are no longer that stupid south of the Mason Dixon line.
Just more liberal scare-tactics, influencing people to oppose American energy, American growth, and American development. Useful idiots, nothing more. Millions of fracks, going back decades (when equipment and techniques were far less developed), and I cannot find a major significant event resulting from fracking... and even if there is an event, that does not mean we shut down the practice. China certainly hasn’t stopped coal mining, despite their nearly monthly mine accidents.
As I sit in my house in Oklahoma with a pump jack and tank battery across the road and hear the New Yorkers cry “not in my backyard” I am reminded of a bumper sticker. “Let the Bas#%##% Freeze in the Dark”
By the way, fracking is not new technology. We have been doing it in Oklahoma since the 40’s with no problems.
Bottom line is we need to tap every energy source we can, or go back to the standard of living we had in the 1800’s.
"We the people of the United States, in order to form a more perfect union, establish justice, insure domestic tranquility, provide for the common defense, promote the general welfare, and secure the blessings of liberty to ourselves and our posterity, do ordain and establish this Constitution for the United States of America."
More than our founders .. if the people had not the sense of posterity, we never would have gotten this far.
That is why all government schooling must cease immediately.
I was born in '48, so I got a fair 'public' education, but as the years went by, I saw things happen I couldn't place my finger on.
There was an 'attitude' or something that just didn't match up to MY schooling.
I see now, it was the dumbing down of our kids about America and what we were and what we had as a core set of values.
That core is gone and has been replaced by some phony 'think about the other guy first' attitude.
No ... America was great because America was good.
Without good (not works and deeds, but from within ... and yes, based on a belief in God) .. there is no America.
Who the frack wrote this?
I’ll admit I don’t totally understand fracking—seems safe enough, given its history—but I just love the name.
Declare environmental groups subversive and arrest and jail their leaders, along with freezing all their assets.
I don’t want to hear any complaints from them about the high cost of energy down the road.
