I'm not one of those who sees endless expansion as a good thing.
You don't have to see endless expansion as a good thing. You have to recognize that it is inevitable.
A good Reublican President, Teddy Roosevelt saw to it that we will always have plenty of National Parks and Forests. That land will be preserved and is arguably the most beautiful on earth.
Our children are growing up, and they want what Mom & Dad gave them as kids. They want to provide a nice home in a safe neighborhood, good schools and freedom for their children. That means expansion.
LOL, I have a Bergey wind generator. This area of the country is primo for them. Weatherford Ok has massive wind generator farms right off I-40, I think they're cool, and the land owners seem to like the huge check they receive each month from the power companies. I think the point is that dems like kennedy speak with forked tongue, they want the power and the alternatives, they just don't think they should have to look at it, them being better than myself and all....
