An Unspoken Reality

Most of us are now fully aware of the huge increases in the cost of gasoline and diesel. For the majority of us, fuel costs have become the number one worry, the number one budget breaker, the number one disaster facing us in everything we do. But it's not only the direct cost of fuel for our cars...
EVERYTHING IS GOING TO COST MORE
The cost of everything is chained to the cost of fuel. Everything you buy has been delivered by trucks, trucks whose operators are now paying today's ruinous cost of diesel fuel. Trucking firms across America are facing the reality of going out of business because they just can't afford the fuel to run their trucks any more. Many of our independent trucking firms and independent truckers cannot pass on the increasing costs of fuel because they are locked to contracts that specify the exact amount for the delivery services they have been providing, and the short-sighted people that control those contracts refuse to adjust them to today's realities.
YOUR ELECTRIC BILL WILL SKYROCKET
The cost of coal is skyrocketing, even though it is delivered by trains. Trains run on diesel, lots and lots of it. So, if you get your electricity now from a firm burning coal, stand by for a huge increase on your electric bill, an increase that will continue to rise.
WINTER IS COMING
Those of you who use heating oil in winter, prepare for disaster. Unmitigated disaster. The choice between making your monthly mortgage payment and eating, versus staying warm.

For a shrinking few, these increases have not yet hurt. But it soon will. Those who are making a living by providing some form of goods or service to the general public are going to see a huge decrease in demand for their goods or services as people tighten their belts.
HISTORY IN THE MAKING
We are watching the greatest transfer of wealth in history. Billions and billions of American dollars are going offshore to nations that do not like us, with billions and billions more to go, with no let-up in sight anywhere on the horizon. Since our foolish State and Federal governments have allowed the environmentalists to totally shut down our own massive energy sources, we are forced to do business with nations and peoples that would happily destroy us. We - by present law - cannot utilize our own resources to get us out of this mess.

We cannot drill in ANWAR, a desolate and empty space of eternal ice and wind, where only a few reindeer may pass through once or twice a year.

We cannot drill offshore, because a few elites living on the beaches don't want to see any oil platforms out at sea in front of their expensive trophy houses, it would spoil their view. No, it's not because of oil spills like they love to claim... surprised?

We cannot build critically needed new refineries anywhere in the United States. Blame the NIMBY attitude... the "Not In My Back Yard" attitude.

We cannot strip mine coal in many areas of the United States because someone will get upset over displacing a few animals and -again - getting their view spoiled by that nasty collection of industrial machinery.

We cannot dispose of our nuclear waste at Yucca Mountain, the safest place imaginable for the next 70 million years or so, because of a few lawsuits by crackpots worried over some imagined and non-existent event. So, no new Nuclear plants. Do like France, where they have 80% of their electricity provided by nuclear energy... they reprocess the waste.

These are all problems of our own making, but to confound the issue, we are now facing the results of supporting six decades of conflict with those nations that believe Israel to be an invader and occupier of Arab lands. Whether this is true of not makes no difference, since we are the ones who have been - and are - paying the bill for this decades-long Jewish experiment in Palestine. We Americans have spent trillions of dollars fighting Arab enemies generated by the UN created State of Israel. Today, Arab oil suppliers are now literally punishing us for supporting Israel, a fact you will never hear from our own news sources, but it is true, and the major reason of the 45% increase in oil since the beginning of this year. There is no way the American dollar has declined 45% during these few months as the media would like us to believe, and the fact is that present day oil supplies are totally adequate to meet current demands.

You may have noticed... there is no shortage of oil products.
SOLUTIONS
Get rid of the short-sighted fools in our state and federal governments that have allowed this disaster to unfold.

Eliminate those insane laws that do not allow us to take advantage of our own resources.

Cancel and recall those oil leases that have been sold to individuals, corporations and foreign nations that refuse us the right to drill for our readily available oil.

Forget about us causing global warming. It's caused by recurring cycles of the sun. There's plenty of evidence for that from reputable researchers around the world. Forget Gore and his posse of tree-huggers... they're ruining us all.

Allow Israel to sink or swim on its own merits. Sixty years should be sufficient time to determine whether or not they can survive on their own. We cannot afford to keep propping them up, it's getting far to expensive, and may bankrupt America if we continue on our present course.
CONCLUSIONS
Global warming is being caused by forces far beyond our control.

We have the technology to produce totally safe nuclear energy, practical ways to dispose of the spent fuel rods, and the ability to produce clean energy from coal.

We have everything we need to become energy independent, to put a stop to this massive transfer of our wealth from us to hostile foreigners. All we need do is toss out the cretins that put us where we are today, and repair the damage they have done to us, to America, to our future.

Let Israel go its own way. But confiscate their stash of nuclear bombs. Allowing Israel to have nukes is as dangerous to world peace as allowing Iran or North Korea to have nukes. Actually more, since they believe any war they start - even nuclear - is justified by their god.

The people running our government have failed us all. Time to replace them. If they refuse to go, eliminate them.
