Just today some cities in California decided to stop relying on coal which is excellent. To many people that will be surprise since our President is the one who pumps it all the time without the media asking why not more pumping for cleaner alternatives. Sometimes asking too many questions, incites more problems for people who like to control the total answers. Its sad to think if California get cleaner fuel, how bad will it be for NE and SE compared to them in the future? Why is it some people know of the dangers and listens to the stats but our news people don't? Why isn't the next logical question about tracking terrorists too difficult to ask by reporters. Look we rely on common sense for all practical reasons in all areas of life, why should normal people have to not rationalize in order to make sense of policy issues? Are we really free? You don't know what you have till you see someone choking on the air for no fault of their own. Or lose their life when for all practical purposes they were exterminated by energy policies and companies . And I swear to God I believe it. > > >> Something is not right. .
