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

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.

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.

The Extremism and Babble of the Ignorant

We have an abundant fuel source and we currently need the power to maintain our society, but the delusional think we should just stop using it immediately.  Don't change how we collect, harvest, gather, or mine (English variance child) the coal and use it, just stop using it is their retarded thinking.  Why are the fools not demanding we stop using all land and air carbon-fuel powered vehicles?  I bet they haven't turned off the electrical power to their homes because it originated from a gas, oil, or coal powered plant instead of from an environmentally cleaner source?

If they bothered to follow their stupid pretense of logic and applied it to other areas of abuse in our society then we should have to stop manufacturing, producing, and using everything.  If they applied the same thinking to the first times they attempted to walk then they would still be crawling, because they were falling down so should have stopped because they were walking wrong.

And of course those who choose to remain ignorant also don't have a clue about sciences and technologies so claim it can't be done.  The same ignorant people and "scientists" of the past claimed the earth to be flat and that we couldn't make things fly, like the same ignorant people and "scientists" today make casual comments and assumptions about life as if Darwinism is scientific fact instead of a failed biological theory about the beginning of life that is mathematically impossible based on scientifically applied math that uses even just the minimum number of biological variables needed to sustain life.  Too many so-called scientists choose to use only a few factors in their "science" or to deliberately leave out any factors (or parts of a theorem) that prove their thinking wrong, just like the rest of the ignorant babblers who refuse to learn or ever admit that they are ever wrong and just parrot the foolish babble of a group so they can feel they belong.

And the silly light bulbs have mercury in them, so are not environmentally intelligent products.  LED lighting is more energy efficient than the silly light bulbs, last longer, and don't contain mercury.  Real environmentalism thinking is not just jumping on popular bandwagons that are passing by and claiming one good factor about their concept, like less energy consumption then the current product, but is also looking into as many of the relational factors as possible.  If someone wants to be an environmentalist, not just a babbling pretender, than they have to think like scientists should and include the maximum number of variables they can think of just like the "less intelligent" life forms are intelligent enough to do so to increase their survival possibility in their environment.

Smarter than a Vegetable?

Coal is not clean.  Gas is not clean.  Oil is not clean.  Paint is not clean.  Plastic is not clean.   Wood is not clean.  No metals are clean. Using our toilets is not clean.  Get rid of it all.  We'll all live in caves and not burn wood to cook our food or to keep warm either.  Oh, and don't kill any animals to eat them or to get garments to wear, or harm any plants either.  This is the fantasy world of the fools.

THEY didn't do it right before, so let's just stop it all.  Let's stop using coal because people harvest and use it wrong.  Let's stop using wood because people harvest and use it wrong.  Let's stop using metals and plastics because people harvest those resources wrong.  And meanwhile I'll just get in my car and drive home to my warm home and cook my meal so I can sit and watch TV or go online and pretend I care about the environment and know what I'm talking about when I babble my foolishness.  Now, go ahead and tell yourself that you are smarter than a vegetable.

The US Stimulation Package (2)

The politicians seem to think that simply scattering a bunch of money around will promote the "US economy".  Too bad politicians don't have to pass a competency test before they get their hands on taxpayer money.  Simple logic proves how reckless their action was.

If a pile of checks are sent out, then a huge chunk of the money will go to food and inexpensive goods (Walmart type stores), and to expensive life-style buys (overseas supplied too).

The employment in other countries will be given a massive assistance by the purchases coming from the "US Stimulation Package".

The politicians would have done better by, for example:

1    Giving out $billions in food stamps that get spent locally and help the poor.  This returns more than $1 into the community for every food stamp dollar spent.
2    Setting aside $billions more to extend Unemployment Insurance that also helps locally.  Include retraining assistance to help them get employed into a changed work environment.
3    Include using $10-20 billion for maybe clean fuels research, or redesign rebating to clean up dirty coal power plants.
4    And by taking a whopping $100 billion of it, and telling the American public that the money is up for grabs for the full cost of their purchase of installed operational wind and solar power collectors, of all sizes, on a first come first served basis. Exclude large power farms from this stimulation package but not the bulk purchases of with-in city limits units that cities may wish to install.  Many American people, cities and companies would jump in to get their chunk of the $billions.

Engaging these few things would cause instant effects and the money will be invested to promote the "US economy".

The continuing effect would be us becoming world leaders in these and other clean power technologies, many Americans finding permanent good employment, the US becoming a little more energy secure, and investment in the US stock market would also be assisted upward by the effect of American companies gearing up for the manufacturing, sales, and educational needs.

Giving the poor, unemployed, and low paid people a few dollars won't help them or the economy.  The permanent availability of many good paying jobs would be better for them and the current middle class.  Sort of like being given a fish as opposed to being helped to become a fisherman.
