And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms. The remedy is to set them right as to facts, pardon and pacify them. What signify a few lives lost in a century or two? The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

Making those important decisions we small citizens can't be trusted to make for ourselves
The following comment in no way implies I believe so-called "Climate Change". but if Climate Change is occurring then it is simple a "symptom" of something greater....i.e.: over-population and advanced technology. As all M.D. know treating a symptom makes you feel better but only addressing the "cause of that symptom" will hopefully bring about a cure. Sure the planet could handle double the current 7.3 Billion humans, but to ensure we humans didn't cause an "imbalance" we'd all have to go back to living in un-electrified, unheated or Airconned 2 room shacks, use outdoor toilets, horse-drawn transportation and winter Ice to stock our "iceboxes". The alternative is reduce and maintain the population at about 1.8 to 2 Billion. Don't shoot me I'm just the critical thinking messenger.
No problem Aggie at 77 and wise I'll do my Sol Roth impression without fanfare or resistance. However I want my induction into eternal sleep accompanied by a stirring rendition of Wagner's "Flight of the Valkyrie".

ReplyDeleteMore than happy to endorse this idea, as long as all of the 'believers' are willing to go first.

DeleteLord, how did I ever survive growing up with paper straws?
ReplyDeleteI have my milk shakes blended thinner in order to be able to use the straw without getting a hernia....
ReplyDeleteAnd just like that, the planet was saved!
ReplyDeleteHey! There was this fella I heer'd tell of that got folks t' drink 'em the consistency of Kool-Aid.
ReplyDeleteDemocrats love to exercise their power, in even the most petty ways.
ReplyDeleteI wonder how he'd like to have a plastic straw shoved up his nose?
That... is exactly... the definition... of a republic.
