The Pit of Misery: Politics and Religion

More brandon accomplishments.

Yeah. the environazis want to get to zero without the infrastructure in place to support it. Sometimes you have to find improvements, as in "we are better" but not there yet, and support the improvements. Biden owes the envrionazis and is pushing their agenda at the expense of the rest of us. It's the lib tax in their war on the middle class...

But climate change.

You ever see the environmental people give up their carbon ways?

If California comes for Midwest water, we have plenty of dynamite in Minnesota
I live in Red Wing, Minnesota. Recently I have noticed several letters to the editor in your publication that promoted taking water from the Mississippi River or the Great Lakes and diverting it to California via pipeline or aqueduct.
I will save you some time by informing you that it is not going to happen because the local citizenry here doesn't want you to have that water. There are very, very many people living along the Mississippi River and around the Great Lakes that really, really don't like California or Californians.
Californians should remember their own history, namely the Owens Valley water wars when valley farmers dynamited an aqueduct that was stealing their water and draining into the sewer that is Los Angeles.
We have plenty of dynamite in Minnesota. My advice to you is: Don't Californicate the upper Midwest.

Memo to West on water: Create your own solutions to your own problems
We appreciate the conundrum and crisis faced out West by those suffering through drought, but the rest of a weary nation would like to bluntly say, "Stop trying to steal our water because you have used up your own."
Politicians and residents out West have created this crisis over the past century by overbuilding, wasting water (Las Vegas anyone?), and acting irresponsibly.
Who thinks it’s a great idea to build massive metropolises in arid regions, plant grass, build fountains, then wonder why there isn't enough water?
The Great Lakes, the Mississippi River, and other water resources aren’t going to be touched. Forget it. To divert water would drop local water tables, destroy wetlands, dry out farms, and potentially permanently change weather patterns needed to support life in these regions.
If anyone tries to steal this water, they’ll find themselves outvoted in Washington and losing in court.
I’ve lived in six states, and I have never witnessed the sense of entitlement to other states' resources that I have every time the West needs more water.
We hurt for you, but we cannot bankrupt ourselves to bail you out every time you need water.
Physician, heal thyself! Create your own solutions to your own problems.

Alaska offered to sell water to California for dirt cheap yet California turned the offer down. Stupid decision on California's part.

ALASKA WATER IDEA IS STILL HIGH AND DRY
 
I laughed because no one seems to be able to read the writing on the wall on the left coast. Can't keep the lights on? Go all electric vehicles! Don't have enough water? Don't buy it from elsewhere, especially if it is from non "woke" places. Let 'em die of dehydration, but the only problem with that is that they'll infect the rest of us with their ideology...
