  Making it Easy for the Lazy

  Or of course you can still choose to remain ignorant and just keep babbling to show everyone how stupid you choose to remain.

  Foolish Children

  Only someone with a major brain malfunction would read into what I have said that I am for the same old same old, or that I am pro-abusive coal, oil, or gas businesses.

  But the tunnel-vision "thinkers" don't bother with what is actually said and simple rant like children having temper tantrums.  They are also incapable of understanding that their extremely stupid theories of how to approach problems will destroy the very livelihood of those in their society.  Retarded approaches to problems only cause more problems and make things worse, but those who choose to remain ignorant don't understand that.

  The fools cannot logically argue against what I have actually said, so they pretend I said something else and/or attack me whom they haven't a clue about.

  I have been proposing our governments promote wind power and hydrogen fueled vehicle since that farcical Kyoto accord of trading pollution was being signed.  But the ignorant would not choose to use the internet, or any other resource, to do any research about that which they choose to foolishly babble about.  Ignorance is bliss, and requires a lot less effort.

  Tunnel-Vision Arguments

  My pappy suffered in the coal mining industry, so that proves it should be banned.  My pappy suffered or died in a farming accident, so let's ban farming.  My pappy got crippled in the fishing industry, so let's ban fishing.  My pappy died building homes and businesses, so let's ban building.  Electricity killed my pappy, so it should be banned.  My pappy was killed in a car accident, so vehicles should be banned.  My pappy was killed by a horse, so horse use should be banned.  My pappy was killed by fire, so we should ban using it.  My pappy died in a gold mine, so let's ban gold.  My pappy died eating, so we should all stop eating.  Can you grasp a pattern of incorrect thinking and faulty logic that fails to give any support to your argument for banning coal use based on the fact that people have suffered from the industry?

  Their pappies all provided them with food, heating, and shelter working the available jobs to provide survival for themselves and their families.  What they supplied with their work also helped other families in society survive longer and with an increased level of comfort.  People and animals suffer and die in their environments but live longer by doing what they need to survive a little longer and to increase their family's survival time.  BUT, man is supposed to be intelligent and following that premise then logic would dictate that we as a race would be constantly correcting out the bad ways of doing things instead of continuing to needlessly threaten others of our race and our survival environment.  As animals that benefit form a structured social setting you'd think that we'd act more like brothers and family.  But instead we worship the individual's right to seek his every pleasure even to the point that the person's actions hurt others and threaten our entire race while we strive to destroy the family structure that benefits our society and race.  We are simple reaping the results of a life that we have selfishly chosen to sow.

  Wake up to reality children.

  We have to live in reality and the reality is that we need coal right now.  The delusional demand that we instantly stop all coal usage is proof that some people have a major brain malfunction and/or have very little understanding of the environment they live in or simple choose to not think.  Obama has a big stimulus bill and the force of law creating to make coal companies start right away to work towards operating more environmentally responsible if he'd care to use those tools, but just banning coal will destroy the society you live in and make it extremely hard for you and you family to survive in that kind of environment.

  What do you think will happen if that power and heat source was instantly eliminated from the society you live in, especially if all coal powered plants were shut down then the world refused to keep loaning the US massively ridiculous amounts of money so the dollar crashes and we couldn't purchase the fuel supplies the country needs to function?  Even rebuilding new badly designed coal plants and getting at the coal will require the power we would not have.  Do you have your own horse to provide you with transportation and as a labour assistance device that someone else will steal, kill and eat to survive a little longer in that environment?

  You don't need to understand electricity, combustion, or technology to know that it is everywhere in the environmental society you live in.  Just quiet down from your temper tantrum freaking out mentality thinking and look around you and start thinking about not having power sources.  Do this at home and at work, and while out walking or shopping.  Think about how food is grown, harvested, preserved, shipped, and stored at your grocery store or how you transport it home and store and cook it.  How about your bathroom needs and your other water usage, and the heat and light you use?

  If you are going to get involved in trying to change society for the better then you should try to use a semblance of logic and not just babble foolishly.  Ever hear the saying that it is better to be though a fool then to open your mouth and leave no doubt.  If you are going to try to make the world better and wish to be thought of as environmentally intelligent and caring then don't you think it would be a good idea to put some effort into thinking about what you are proposing instead of letting the narrow minded person do the "thinking" for you?  Get involved or don't, but just babbling nonsense only hurts the environmental responsibility cause instead of promoting it.

  Watch the Pea

  You are just playing a shell game of delusion.  This type of bank or that type of loan or financial company that loans money to people, businesses and/or banks.

  Dumping money into banking type businesses run by morally bankrupt idiots who destroyed people's lives and the viability of their institutions by their greedy selfish actions only supports the bankrupt idiots so they can continue to act like idiots and cause even more damage.

  The banks should be allowed to fail if their leaders put them into that position by abusing people with their ARM loans and bad banking business practices.  They should be forced into bankruptcy and allow the FDIC to serve the function it was created for.  If the ARM garbage loans were revalued and the payments made better so mortgage owners could make their payments then the bank will continue to receive income and that could be the basis of acquiring the assets.  The government could claim first bankruptcy purchasing rights (so others don't just ransack them for the more profitable assets and leave the rest) then adjust the necessary asset values and people's payment terms under the adjusted mortgage rates then sell the bank assets back into the private sector.  So what if the investors who bought the bad ARM loan packages from the failed banking institutions don't get their greedy profits at the expense of others.

  Employment drives a consumer driven economy, not shoveling massive amounts of borrowed tax money into financial institutions that have proven their leaders morals and banking practices to be bankrupt of value.

  Obama's Wasted Stimulus Opportunity

  Obama is acting just like every other politician.  His stimulus is about buying favoritism instead of doing what is right.  The full dollar amount should have been spent to put people to work and to strengthen the country.  Wasting so much of it on tax breaks, and regular budget issues, is simply the usual political vote purchasing.  By including the tax breaks he is saying that the 95% of the population that he claims is going to receive the tax breaks are so greedy and selfish that they demand an extra $15.00 per pay as the country takes on even more debt in these troublesome economic times.  Apparently Americans are not willing to continue to pay the same tax rate they currently do as the country's debt is increased to try to save the country because they are not the patriotic people who love their country or who care about their children's debt or futures that they claim to be.  And telling people that don't have an income, or who are about to lose their income, that they can pay less tax on what they don't or won't have is just more political fallacy anyway not an economic stimulus.

  Propping up banks or homeowners is not the answer either.  If that huge pile of borrowed money is put into the economy quickly in manufacturing and construction employment then the banks will be tripping over each other to get their share so credit will flow from them too, and people who are employed can afford to make their mortgage payments and will support other businesses.  Most people will not get help to keep their homes even under his plan, so it makes more sense to give all the people a better future opportunity so they all might in the future be able to buy a home under smarter terms.  And, small businesses first and foremost need people to support them, because being told they can pay a lesser tax rate on no income from the unemployed won't keep them in business.

  Cleaner and locally produced energy and its continent wide distribution is THE PRIORITY NEED of the country RIGHT NOW!!!  The current situation has presented a perfect opportunity for our "leaders" to responsibly renew the country and to promote its continued existence and the future survival of us as a supposedly intelligent race in the environment we exist in.  If we don't have energy we won't have any other of the many luxuries we currently enjoy.  If you think economic, unemployment, education and health concerns are bad now then just try to imagine how bad things will get if there is a severe lack of power available for the country.  Don't forget to add in the rioting due to the severe lack of employment, services, lighting, heating and food (especially in the cities).  Securing energy sources to power the country is more important than the large military force the US has for the security of the country.  If other countries quite supporting our debt then we at least cannot be so easily turned into a third world internally war riddled country if we cannot be deprived of our energy needs.  And changing our methods so we won't be sucking so many of the poisonous fumes that we do using our current power generating needs is what an intelligent species would do to better ensure their and their race survival.

  Try driving you car to the grocery store, school, doctor, or work if it doesn't have fuel.  Employment fuels the US consumer driven economy, and the economy is out of fuel.  It cannot do what we want it to do if it doesn't have enough fuel to operate.  The intelligent would understand that stimulating such an economy is done by putting the most people to work soonest and wisely, which is basically like cranking an engine over to start it functioning.  If someone has a heart flutter then promising them money won't help but stimulating their heart with a charge to encourage it to reset itself will.

  America currently has the perfect opportunity and the technologies to address these problems and Obama had the opportunity to start us on the right path but, like any other politician, his only concern seems to be to simply Play the "Game" or "Sport" (his own words, describing politics).

  The full dollar amount should be spent by putting the people to work on the refurbishing and rebuilding of the country's infrastructure needs.  Power, water, transportation and communication infrastructure is needed to promote and support our society and we might want to try acting like an intelligent species and think about our environmental survival requirements when engaged in our decision making.  Even a vegetable knows and does what is required to encourage its survival and the continuation of its species to function within its environmental opportunities and limitations.  Not bothering about the massive pollution we were putting into our environment and the destruction of our lands and water to only think about acting when global climate change threatens us is proof that as a species we are acting like we are brain-dead with an intelligence level below that of a vegetable.
