I do want clean air, water, and land free from pollution. I just don't believe a bunch of rich companies and organizations, especially the government, telling me special little light bulbs are going to "heal the earth." People in this country have a talent of making money from words.
There are a lot of people telling us we have to start doing things to save the Planet. Shrink our carbon foot print. The government has seen fit to FORCE us to buy new CFL light bulbs which contain mercury which is bad for us and the local trash pickup may not take them. They have also said that global warming is happening and the Earth can’t release as much heat as it used to, but now NASA says that’s bull. Are these are the same “geniuses” who said it was causing in the first place?
I just know a lot of money is being made by people who had no industry before we all became “alerted” to the “crisis.” A lot of tax money has been spent, a lot of new jobs and studies have been commissioned, and it seems as though these “professionals” all work for the government. General Electric is nice and “chummy” with our current administration, and who do you think sells the new light bulbs and wind turbines? Despite a profitable year, GE pays no Tax?
How can anyone, regardless of politics, party affiliation, out-look on life, or amount of drugs not care about this? Remember the crying Indian? I grew up thinking of him every time I was going to drop my pop can or candy wrapper on the ground. Now I feel like a puppet that some group targeted to “get with the program.” Even the dopers should be pissed that these new fees, taxes, and costs cut into their “supply.” Meanwhile, people are still starving, homeless, dying of cancer, not learning to read, and fighting over whose God is more bad-ass than the others. Recycling use to be something you did and got some extra money doing it. Now it’s something you pay for? I want my country back.
