This is all bullshit.
First of all, let me apologize for my language. Your post was hysterical, and full of Woe is me, the world is changing, nonsense, but bullshit was over the top.
Yes, people do want to control coal and petroleum. They are bad for us and our planet. There are many hard numbers measuring this, and they are very clear. This must be done. There is a price to pay while we wait, and another price to pay as we act, but We Must Act.
The Keystone Pipeline Cops, as you put it, have a point. If petroleum is killing us slowly, why build a big pipeline to kill us faster? Do you have an answer for that?
Yes, water will be rationed some places--probably sooner than you think. The huge aquifer in the middle of the country is about half gone, and it refills very, very slowly.
A million swimming pools in Las Vegas, or in Arizona, just doesnt make sense. There will be a big fight between people who want water to drink and those who want it to farm.
Youll be able to buy desert property very cheap sometime soon, it just wont have any water access
In this context, does watering you lawn seem very important?
Outside our borders, there will be wars fought over access to water.
Is Big Sis the USGovt?? Its not clear. They already wiretap the entire country--George Bush did that, and no one complained. Too late now. They can also copy your hard drive in the dead of night if they want to. Probably read your mail, if its interesting.
Are no children being born??? I missed that.
However, I do believe in Abortion. There, Ive said it!
I dont know who NK is
is he a republican, wanting to start a war?
What about no-fly zones? I dont get that.
Dont get what you mean about boys being boys. In the military, the rape rate of women soldiers is about 20%, committed by their comrades or their superior officers--those boys shouldnt continue to be boys. In the schools...I dont know what you mean.
Using a camera already means youre a terrorist to some. Some semi-pros get confused between their legitimate responsibilities and excessive over-reaction. That needs to be fixed.
I dont know anyone who thinks making a profit is evil. Some make a million dollars a year, others a million a month, some a million a week. But the business model has changed; no more working for a single employer all your life. They lay you off at the drop of a hat. Maybe its good for business. I have no problem with 26 weeks of unemployment compensation paid for by the employee and the employer who does the laying off.
It cost you nothing. Why should you care?
Never hear anyone say we should join the Eurozone. Is that just panic on your part?
By the way, the run on the banks already began. We were within days of having no American economy at all, but the government saved us and let the bankers off. Are you angry at the Govt or at the bankers?
Take a walk, breath some clean air, and THINK. Dont panic. It never does any good.
