I understand your frustration, but a total collapse would be catastrophic and we may never recover. The issues are not caused by "stupidity" nor are the issues to "complex" to resolve. I don't know a micro sieman from a Doberman Pinscher, but I do recognize the absurdity of requiring mine discharge water to be as pure, or purer than distilled water. The EPA had dedicated itself to serving a very small, but influential group of people. The EPA has lost its way and has become an instrument of tyranny. Remove Obama and demand that the EPA refocus on serving the best interests of the environment in cooperation with all the people. If nothing happens, I suggest extra legal action to force the necessary change. Energy has become that critical.

The passage of time is marked with milestones. We each know where we were when President Kennedy was shot, when the Berlin Wall came down, and on the morning of 9-11. If we continue on the current course, you’ll be telling your grandchildren where you were the night the lights went out in America.

America’s energy policy is being dominated by environmentalists’ priorities—regardless of the impact to the American economy, individual communities, or economically-challenged citizens. The plans to shut down or limit America’s abundant, available, and affordable energy are organized, coordinated, and effective. The results will be “lights out in America”—a...
