I’m going to celebrate Earth day the same way I always do. I’m going out to the country, sit under a tree while reading a good book. While burning a giant pile of old truck tires.

Only commies celebrate Lenin’s Birthday (Earth Day).
Anyone here celebrating?
This is Free Republic. I think not.

"Further proving that this is actually a welfare scheme, on page 973 we discover that for workers who lose their manufacturing jobs because the caps on their companies are too repressive and their employer either has to shut down or move operations to the third world to avoid regulation, the "adversely affected worker" shall receive 70 percent of his prior weekly wage, "payable for a period not longer than 156 weeks." In addition, on pages 986-987 we read that the unemployed worker can submit up to $1,500 in job search reimbursements and get another $1,500 to cover his moving expenses."

Once all the jobs are killed, how can people survive on money being churned out by government printing presses? The unprinted paper would have more value...

I read something not long ago about how the brain functions in a dream state. I think that the leftists who come up with these schemes actually never wake up--their brains are stuck in a perpetual dream state such that they truly believe the ridiculous ideas they espouse--for instance, that it's possible to have a society of plenty, where everyone has their needs met, without anyone actually working to produce anything.

My local lib paper today featured a bunch of stories about earth day, but the most interesting thing was a letter to the editor that appeared to more of a prayer to the earth han anything else. When lefties say they’re atheists, they’re not being truthful. The earth is now their god, and they say prayers and offer sacrifices to the earth. Obviously Earth Day is a holy day of obligation for them.
