Strange that no matter where you begin, you wind up in an actively flushing toilet.
Also, makes you listen to the "political discourse" now prevelent in the country at this time and realize that not one of them has "the" (or any, for that matter) answer to the current dynamic situation.
A very scary scenario, what?
Yes indeedie... we have a radio station here, and during the freeway construction season, one of the DJ’s has a saying, “Short term pain equals long term relief”.... well, the time has come for the real short term pain. Government has to shrink. People need to be let go. Regulations brought on by the hippie generation need to go. Build refineries, power plants, and drill, mine or whathave you, without the regulations that make it cost prohibitive. This will drive down the price of energy, and the downward spiral will stop. The elimination of useless regulations, fees, fines and taxes will begin the climbing out of the rut..lower iimport taraffs for any country that will do the same for us... then just stand out of the way
