Another great write up from a schoolmate.
Keep them coming Lew , hopefully we can start opening peoples eyes.
I was asked a few years back what was the greatest threat to the United States, Colorado and La Plata County. Below was what I wrote in response, and I believe even more adamantly now that the answer I gave back then is accurate, not only for Colorado, but for every state, county and city in America!!!
THE GREATEST THREAT WE AMERICANS FACE IS OUR GOVERNMENTāS NATURAL BENT TO CONTROL THOSE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT!!!
Iāve said this beforeā¦OUR ELECTED OFFICIALS NO LONGER BELIEVE THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO REPRESENT US, THEY BELIEVE THEY ARE TO RULE US! So the great threat of this reality to our nation, our state and our county is that our āPolitical Classā view themselves as ROYALTY. They believe themselves to be rulers, not representatives. They believe that āWe the Peopleā, the peons, are to be regulated, and lead, and manipulatedā¦AND IN ESSENCE CONTROLLED!!! There are many examples of this, but letās just take, for example, this whole Global Warming thing, and the crazy headlong rush to eliminate fossil fuels. Add to that the initiative to introduce wolves into Colorado, and you have a push to eliminate cattle and sheep ranching, and oil & gas exploration and production. Hmmmmā¦why? Well, as far as ranchers and farmers go, they are typically far more independent types. In general, they donāt rely on lots of other folks around them for security, or support or entertainment. If theyāre not succeeding, they generally just work harder, and simply have far less reliance on government. THEY ALSO MOSTLY VOTE CONSERVATIVELY! In my opinion our government, which has trended further and further LEFT over time, has tried to trap them with subsidies, but it still apparently hasnāt generated the government loyalty, and liberal vote from them the government was hoping for, so now itās time to eliminate them. Wolves in ranching country will do that! And why Colorado for this intro of an apex predator? Because Colorado is geometrically centered in the western US, between Canada and Mexico, and between the West Coast and the Mississippi River. They know those wolves will spread over time to all 360 degrees of the compass, and will decimate ranching everywhere they go, particularly the smaller, more vulnerable family operations. Where will ranching families then have to go, once their rural livelihoods are ruined? Theyāll go to the cities for work in factories, or service industries, or as Uber drivers, or whatever to feed their families. Their future generations will then not be raised as independent rural, agricultural based folks, but as more government reliant city dwellers.
And why hammer the fossil fuels industry? To save the planet? Bulls**t!!! Once again to drive folks out of rural areas. Where is oil and gas exploration and production primarily done? Oh yeah, rural America, so those folks in that industry will once again be forced into the cities. Where are folks more ācontrollableā, in the wide open spaces or in population centers? Duh!!! Why electric cars? Because they donāt go very far, and peopleās mobility can be more controlled, tying them more closely to cities. When you look at an electoral map on election days, what parts are RED, and what parts are BLUE? Rural areas are RED, and urban areas are BLUE!
That is just my opinion, and Iām sure many will cry that Iām a conspiracy theorist. Iāve learned in 6 decades, though, that if it looks like s**t, and if it smells like s**t, and if I got it on my shoes and tracked it on my Momās carpet and got smacked for itā¦ITāS PROBABLY S**T!!!
Anyway, nuff said on thatā¦
