    Or we can have pretty forests with firebreaks.

    We actually have that capability in the 21st century. It's true.

    oh my god you're right, let's look at the latest Fukushima Diachi radiation death toll.........zero. let's look at those radiation poisoned: zero. Let's look at the contamination on the west coast of the USA, one radiactive Xenon atom per cubic meter attributed to Fukushima soon after the accident. Why, the death count might even double over the next five years!

    I hear there are many vacant homes in Fukushima, I guess you will be moving there?

  9. Re:Which company bought this 'new' rule? on EPA Makes Most Wood Stoves Illegal · · Score: 1

    I would love to know which gas / propane / electric company bought this rule....

    It does not matter, burning wood keeps you independent. With enough acreage, downed limbs and branches can keep you warm without cutting one tree, year after year. The PTW want you dependent on metered, regulated energy sources in case you get uppity. Then they just shut it off. G-d forbid it happens in winter. This is how they will "cull the herd".
    Become an informer on your neighbors, and get more fuel. Tesla was right, energy should be free. If you do not believe in zero point energy, then you are proof that the brainwashing education system is working well. You, the independent thinker, will go the way of Tesla, Rife, Reich, Meyers, and countless others who sold out to BIG energy, food, pharma; or as those mentioned, lost to obscurity.
    The PTW are desparately holding onto power and because of this, will lose all control. The PTW are like monkeys with their hands in a bottle full of peanuts with the bottleneck too small for anything other than an empty hand, the only way to release their hand is to let go of the peanut, but their thinking will not allow it. Thus they are caught in bottle ie. the system, mindset, or what have you. This also includes your portable (not)smartphone. The only difference is you are smarter than the monkey, or are you?

    Just a factoid, the U.S. is about equal to China in manufacturing, so stop spreading the mis-information that the U.S. doesn't make anything anymore.

    Quality and China are not synonymous. There's alot of crap from China, why don't you drink their milk or give it to your kids while feeding your pet with Chinese pet food.
    Just because 1.3 billion people use your products does not mean quality is job #1.

  18. Re:Here is a thought.. on HealthCare.gov: What Went Wrong? · · Score: 1

    It's probably a lot more well-implemented since those that are permitted to do that work at least need to pass some security checks. This means that it's not just any cheap labor that can be employed to do that work.

    But for a lot of work the cheapest bidder is mandated by law.

    Not really, it's due to the cheap-ass whores in D.C. who believe the fox is a better guard of the henhouse.

    No kidding. The worst performers in our company are those that are friends of the executives.

    This is stage two, the first stage got all manufacturing overseas, this stage will cement the incompetence into a hardened ball of shit.
