Agreed.
Sarah Palin is a dumbass of the highest order, but I don't necessarily disagree with her on this one. The biggest reason for this oil disaster is not the fact that they were drilling, but apparently there was very little regulation from the federal government. From what I've read the Bush and Obama administrations overlooked some serious warnings that more regulations were needed.[/QUOTE]
She's smart. And the problem is lack of effective regulation by the government and lack of integrity by the drilling companies.
I haven't made up my mind on whether we should keep drilling but obviously we need to be wayyy more careful. [/QUOTE]
You do realize that we have to continue to get new sources of energy for our country.
Agree and that's the problem with politics and ppl in general. They don't want the truth they want to be told yes. I am for Nuclear Power but I want an objective study done it, and yes you can put in my backyard. But don't give me study from Haliburton, BP, Xcel or any of them. And when you give me your study explain the model and the pros and cons. Three Mile Island was eon's ago and so was Chernobyl. If France can do it, we certainly can.
We need "excess use" taxes. Excess water use, excess landscaping noise tax, excess fuel consumption tax, excess large lawn tax. That will set the more and bigger is better folks straight.
Funny thing, I take the least care for my lawn and I have the best. Neighbors spending their time cutting their grass like every other day and watering the shit out of it. Cracks me up what a bunch of crackpots folks are. For nature's sake, go read a book and let the lawn be.
