I work for a State Environmental Commission (State version of the EPA) as an environmental investigator. I can tell you that is does some good as far as making people conscience of the dangerous consequences of improper waste disposal, but I also see a LOT of unwarranted and unnecessary regulations that are destroying the value of good properties. Over-regulation makes criminals out of honest people, and destroys private property and private property rights. It is that simple. Environmental investigation should be a private industry, not a public one.

Thanks Seawolf! Dubya cares - Osama Obama doesn't. That is as true and obvious as the day is long. Pur military knows that!

Michael, You're comments are most welcome and refreshing to read. I strongly agree with you, and Cepat2. It is not the majority, but the fanatical minority that will bring this country down - from the inside out.

You are right, this is not a difficult thing. Increased sun activity causes temperature increases on earth. Planet earth is dynamic, not static. It is constantly changing. If you had current data, you would discover that the glaciers are now reforming. Human activity has limited influence on Nature. The global-warming scare is a proven scam - period.

Freedom and Survival will be the issues. Food, water, and shelter will be the currency. Possibilities are not certainties, but neither are outcomes. The threat is empirical - it is real - there is evidence daily. We must focus our resources on our military and American production of our own weapons, tanks, planes, ect. We must stop spending on pork projects and the destruction of capitalism and production in the free market. Our country could enclave and become extremely vulnerable - if we do not wake up.

Sorry about that!! ;)
