Instead, with all their talk of windfall profits, our politicians pander for votes. Makes me wonder if Washington in general and the Congress in particular is a bigger threat to our survival than plague, pestilence and Al Quaida combined.

Our elected officials need to be reminded that if you're not a part of the solution, you're part of the problem.

It is my belief that the government should make a comprehensive energy plan with the goal of not needing to send any money overseas for energy within a certain time frame their #1 goal. If and when that day comes, we can begin to pay down our national debt. And with the combination of not having to pay interest on that national debt and well as the additional taxes raised by the growth in our own economy by these new energy efficient products..... you see where I'm going.

Keep that money in our own system. With less interest being paid out on our national debt, Washington could then move on to making positive adjustments to our social security and our health care systems.

Morons who focus on windfall profits on businesses that are working on these initiatives need to be in their neighborhood bar discussing politics and not in Washington setting policy. Unfortunately, it seems that the bar people are hoping for a car with great mileage and the Washington people are discussing the politics of what to do to win the next election.

If this keeps up, the illegal imigrant situation will solve itself. No one will want to come here.]]> Sat, 07 Jun 2008 08:29:29 -0400
