The following is a response I made via email to a newspaper reporter:
I chose not to answer anymore of the dialog going on when everyone was copied. I am completely dismayed at the brazen disregard for human life. It is not that people don’t know that the cobalt mines are killing kids in their 20’s. Kids in third world countries are forced to the mines, not by choice, but by force. The completely illogical conclusion in the last email string helped me become more aware that my conversation is not met with sincerity, but with agenda only mindsets.
This is slavery.
We —the powerful United States—require third world countries to commit to never use any hydrocarbon power in their process. If they don’t agree, the U.S. forbids them to trade with the world. What are they supposed to do? It’s simply slavery. We are so happy they don’t have to starve to death in our country. But they can starve in their own country.
The rational that a person can put solar at their house, and everything will be alright is as inconceivable of a concept to me as anything I have heard. Do you really think they care about having enough power to run an air conditioner, or turning on a light? The narrative that they cannot build a power grid to serve all the houses is illogical. How about they build power plants that can generate power for a factory. They can work on serving homes in the future. Maybe the homes can be served by solar. To restrict their ability to thrive will be our guilt. We get the feel-good moment to use our electric vehicles and solar panels while we know and ignore that the chemicals involved to make them are killing kids in third world countries. They need power that only (at this point) hydrocarbon power can deliver.
Third world countries cannot run factories and generate high volumes of goods to trade with the world from wind and solar. Battery back-up cannot generate heat to make plastics, metals, carbon fiber, process other materials. Process this….. in the early 90s there was great panic that coal fired power plants were spewing contaminants into the atmosphere. They required scrubbers to be put on the smokestacks to correct the issue. These power plants hired the best engineers in the world to design and implement millions of dollars into getting the desired out come. (You are emitting xyz at this level, and we need it to be x) The engineers designed the equipment to achieve the requirement. After millions of dollars and good faith expenses, now the goal post has been moved to say, ummm not enough. Why? Who made the decision that certain elements must be cleaned, but now it’s not enough. This insincerity is killing a nation, and killing young children all over the world, all driven by power and greed.
I am absolutely certain that many people in the 17 & 1800’s watched slavery happen and did nothing to stop it. Sure, they didn’t participate, in fact they may have voted for it, but they saw it happen and did nothing but defend the slave owners for their greed as well. I am no scientist, I am not a coal miner, I am a critical thinker who once I begin to unravel the deception, I search it to the end.
Many times when missionaries are teaching someone, the person they are teaching reaches out to their current pastor or religious leader to be at a discussion. Why? Its because they don’t feel comfortable with what they know and they trust others rather than doing their own research. It’s easier to just blindly trust others to defend what is becoming more and more indefensible. If your true concern is that of the port and the money behind it, I am certain that there will be adequate accounting for the money so that there is not an abuse of tax dollars.
Marlo Oaks is our elected State Treasurer. Does he have concerns? I don’t know, but I do trust that he is watching the money. We have an elected Legislature that seems to be conservative. They will watch the dollars.
Please don’t assume that I wrote any portion of this email in anger or frustration, it is written simply to encourage you to do your own research. Try to search it on your own. Lets make sure we are not holding others in slavery for our own greed. We are… We all shop the discount stores like Walmart, Amazon etc. Their profit is in the purchasing, not is raising the prices of goods. They can only purchase at unbelievable prices if third world countries are kept in poverty. If you really want to understand what is happening on a larger scale, ask yourself why the United Nations require third world countries to teach in their schools that homosexuality is an acceptable union. If they teach it, they can have access to aids vaccines, if they don’t they will not be permitted to access the medication to fight against aids. I have read the agreements.
Just do your own research. I am not trying to change the mindset of your entire friend group, but maybe I can save this one starfish and it will make a difference.
Illegal Immigration
The expense that illegal immigration is having on our schools, doctors/hospitals and our roads is without calculation. One first stab at the issue would be to charge the originating country where the illegal aliens came from, “their country of origin” for the education of the children. I realize that the country of origin is not going to pay the United States a big fat check, but we can charge it against the trade imbalance of their country. The schools, doctors, police etc can gather this information as they function in their respective responsibilities.
The same could happen with crime. Charge the legal system expenses against a trade imbalance. Those in our country driving illegally and cause an accident while not insured, charge against the imbalance. These are not bad people. These are people who seek a better way of life, and I welcome them. However, they must come the legal and correct way.
There are many who are trying to immigrate the right way, but at this point will have no chance to get to the U.S. legally because the system is overwhelmed by those who came in illegally. While there is no question that the boarder is wide open, we must realize there is nothing stopping those who are here with the intent of destroying the United States.
