Well, remember folks, , WE, collectively, put all these people into office at every election. When push comes to shove, who is REALLY responsible for the 'end result'? Both,the 'elected' and the voter, or just the 'elected', on the condition that the 'elected' didn't lie and mislead the voters in their campaign ads etc. We vote using their 'promises' and positions on various issues.
Maybe instead of the majority voting 'on-the-fly' in between TV shows and the entertainment media, we can begin something new. Researching the candidates past, and present and their performances and reviewing more than some 60 second media speeches they blitz us with.
Most of our problems today are because many non-thinkers are voting people into office. That is of course on the premise that the candidates don't change party affiliations or issue stances in mid-course. Much of the deep-water drilling 'laws' come from our own government.
I guess we all have gotten what we 'wanted', hell, we voted for 'them', take your pick.
In many cases, it's our fault.............that is all
Oh, yes it was a shakedown..........so what, Thier results in drilling and ours to a degree, have destroyed much of the local if not greater, of the environment, and the human toll is just beginning. Maybe $20 Billion per month should be the payment plan for recovery.
This is more than just a 'Wakeup Call"
