This fine, short essay is packed full of common sense...hence it must be destroyed.

John F Di Leo is a Chicagoland based international trade professional, writer and actor.

I expect a 4:00 AM FBI raid on his residence for "disinformation". That seems to be the catchall for the governments "I don't like it" charge.

Two things, one green energy, windmills actually use more energy to produce and install then they create during their lifetime. Two, recycling, plastics also biodegrade.

I saw both of these in articles on Watts up with that.

Clear, concise and irrefutable observations...from a fellow international trade professional.

Well done.

“Talk about something else that’s falling from the sky
and that is an asteroid. What’s coming our way? Is this
an effect of, perhaps, of global warming, or is this just
some meteoric occasion?” - CNN’s Deborah Feyerick

If recycling made economic sense, people would be bidding for my garbage.

He succinctly sums up the enormous stupidity of the democrat’s platform.

In their world emotions generated over the net trump facts. Closing down our social world speeds that up.

I miss seeing strangers smile. Much.

“windmills actually use more energy to produce and install then they create during their lifetime.”

Do a search on the carbon footprint on a car battery for an electric car! It’s huge!!!

This is about emotional control.

Recycling: Taking plastic, metal, or paper goods and shipping them to China which them immediately dump into the sea.

Green Energy: Taking impractical and enormously expensive electrical generating technology manufactured with caustic and toxic materials which cost more CO2 pollution to make and decommission than they save during their entire lifetime.

You cannot change your sex. You can only hide it or superficially mask it as something else. But the same sex chromosomes you were born with will be the same ones you have when they bury you.

Yep. He will be standing behind a fence in two weeks, yelling “Avenge me!” to his son, who is on the other side of the fence.

Yancy Tucker is the man!

I am kind of surprised that the article is published in Illinois review

Crap writing. Even though I agree with the author, he is offering opinions as “indisputable facts”.

I already posted it. Why do you make freepers repeat themselves? He is offering opinions as if they are “indisputable facts”.

I was wondering if anyone would argue with my thesis. Thank you.

Now, I do agree, certainly, that there is some opinion, maybe even a lot of opinion, around these areas. But what I posted here is fact, and yes, I maintain it’s the core of each of these issues.

For example, the public is taught that recycling is always good, always wonderful, and always the right thing to do. The truth is that recycling is right sometimes and wrong frequently. My point is that we need to open people’s minds to the fact that there’s room for discussion and analysis here.

And take vote fraud, the one I closed with. Some would claim that every time a Democrat wins, the race was stolen. That’s wrong. But the Dems are going the opposite way, and claiming that there is no such thing as vote fraud, when it’s painfully obvious that there’s a ton of it. Again, I’m not taking the extreme position here. I’m saying we need society to open its mind so we can have the debate.

Right down the line, my ten points are countering an opposite that the Democrats are presenting as fact. They’ve managed to poison the political world, to warp the discussion of the issues in the marketplace of ideas, by convincing people of absolute lies.

And yes, I’m saying that we need to reopen America’s mind so that these issues can be freely discussed.

Now, if i were to be doctrinaire in treating an opinion as if it were fact, I might’ve said “no tax rate should ever be above 10%.” That would indeed be opinion. But I said that America’s tax rates are generally so high as to be destructive, and we need to relearn the basic principles of economics such as the Laffer Curve, so we can have an intelligent debate about taxes, recognizing that at a certain point, they don’t even raise more revenue, they decrease it.

To look at my list of points and think they are opinions is just to demonstrate how amazingly corrupted our political discourse must be.

JFD
