QuoteJust watching videos from today..  The tow truck drivers joined..  Then the farmers came with their tractors and broke right through the police barricade to join the protest.
God Bless The Canadian Farmers and Tow Truck Drivers..

What you didn't see was all the local people including ranchers, farmers and processors angry as hell because the border was being held hostage. It stopped the import/export of feed, produce and product. Ranchers couldn't sell, the processors backed up because trucking was stopped. Many businesses had to shut down and lay off people... a real shit show.

The most common response was...
--Theses idiots think there freedom is more important than ours.
--We won't forget these people or what they did.

Which is why the other 95% of real truckers and there unions want nothing to do with these loose cannons because they make everyone look incompetent. Thank god the greater majority of people, truckers, ranchers and farmers know how to act like responsible adults.

Is this the new normal?, whenever a few nut jobs with an attitude problem don't get there way they hold everyone else hostage?.

Just keep right on drinking the koolaid.  Someday you will realize you've been had by the lying left-wing media.

        Free energy is just around the corner if we decide to have it.
                  We can use it to solve many of our problems
                                                   or
                             it can be like in that old saying of
             " give a man enough rope and he will hang his self".


                                               To have it.
We have to stand up to our governments and the banks and the big corporations
                                      and take what is ours. 

                                  But we have to stand together
                                                       or
                                                     none
                     of us will ever benefit from free energy's arrival.

Floor, what's your position on this topic.

I've heard it said that if we stopped using fossil fuels, global warming would reverse, as it's the carbon emissions which holds the heat in our atmosphere by amplifying the greenhouse effect.

I've also heard it said that global warming is not necessarily the C02, but that all energy created from almost any source is (at least in some percentage) is converted to heat.  For instance, most car engines are steadily over 200 degrees F when running. Now take millions of cars daily, each humming at 200+ degrees, and one could imagine this would have an impact regardless of the carbon footprint.

Now lets say the population gets free energy.  I'd imagine the frivolous nature of the masses would be heating their heat to 80+ with the windows open in the winter, heating their inground pools during winter (24 hours a day 365 a year), etc.

Conservative measures like house insulation and the likes would be non-necessity in most minds, and I could even see outdoor heated domes where people grow tropical plants and trees in northern climates in the dead of winter.

My point is, surely wasteful activities would be amplified if such technologies were easy for anyone to have..

Now in your opinion, does the fact that FE is 100% clean put all global warming worries to rest, or does the thought of frivolous wastefulness pose more of a threat?

Free energy could be used to restore the atmosphere and the oceans and on and on and on. 

We could each and the next generations as well, have the greatest opportunities any human
being has ever seen.  Great jobs to say the least.

In the short term FE or not, if we cannot resist engaging in this blaming and divisiveness we
will surely be conquered and perhaps never again see the light of liberty.

In the long term, frivolous wastefulness would be as much a threat as what we are doing now.

Great challenges are upon us and they represent great possibilities but for good or for ill.
