Unfortunately, it’s real. It’s not a “conspiracy theory.” Just a conspiracy.

As i looked into it, I got madder and madder. :explode: The whole thing is INSANE.

What is WRONG with power hungry people? Why can’t they be happy enough dominating their own homes, neighborhoods, countries or continents??? Must they have the earth, too???

So, ever hear of geoengineering? Of course not! The media has more important junk, like the royal wedding and the latest Hollywood scandal, to report day and night to you. Geoengineering is the lame brain idea of manipulating the Earth’s climate to stop “global warming.”

Heck, all you have to do to stop global warming is tape the politicians’ mouth shut!!

:thinking: Then again, maybe controlling the Earth’s climate IS easier…

The reason I’m looking up geoengineering is because we’ve had some MIGHTYYYYYY crazy weather the past few years. MIGHTY crazy. Out of the blue, strange, unusual, record-breaking crazy. And I ONLY WISH it was global warming crazy. No, it’s tornado, flood, hurricane, wacky blizzard and earthquake crazy. It’s destroying the planet! Forget the sensa weight loss reviews for losing weight, all these catastrophes are causing famine! Sheesh!

HELLO, world dominants? We’d MUCH RATHER have global warming than be plagued with tornadoes and floods. Please go back to your measly little mansions now, k?

Overheard on Twitter tonight:

… there will be another season of Jersey Shore… but the U.S. government… that’s up in the air.”

Oh honey, from your lips to God’s ears!

I’m SO SICK of the blah blah blah about government shut down, hearing how seniors will starve, how it’s all the Republicans’ fault, etc etc etc.

Watching the news is rather frustrating right now. Not that I do it very often. But it’s so depressing. And life is too busy to dwell on all the massive negativity they are dumping on us. I just wish these clowns would quit their selfish bickering and retire, ykwim???

Yesterday I realized that it’s always “something.” The media always gives every adult generation something to really worry about. Bay of Pigs, nuclear war, Breshnev, Ghadafi, whatever. There’s never any peace from them, did ya notice?

WELL ANYWAY I say we hold a little revolt of our own. What if they held a war and nobody came, huh? What if we all decided just to stop worrying and BE HAPPY and CONTENTED? Me, I just want to run my business in peace, I want to order my office supply stuff and make my customers happy without every government official poking and prodding and interfering and scaring me into thinking it’s all gonna come down on my head.

I say BOO.

:grinny: Go ahead and shut down, then. Don’t let the screen door hit ya on the way out, sonny!

Mr. Crabby and I have been searching for a new family vehicle FOR MONTHS and so far our efforts have been fruitless. FRUITLESS!!! We even have the money in hand, ready to slap down on the dealer’s table, but we can find nothing appropriate for our family of 6.

Yes. SIX. We have FOUR offspring. And I would *kinda* like to have seats in the vehicle for every one of them, plus the two adults. I guess a couple of the runts can be strapped to the roof rack, but during our rugged winters, that might be considered a little mean….

But we go into a car dealership and the people look at us like we are a rerun from The Waltons. SIX. They can’t believe it. They count us, several times. One, two, three, four… OMG HOW MANY PEOPLE DO YOU HAVE?!

If we lived in California, I’d be called a “breeder.” But here in New York State, they like big families. Because when they look at us, they see walking tax dollars and “surcharges” and “fees” and “tariffs.” They cackle and gleefully rub their hands together, tabulating the millions of dollars in taxes we’ll reap in for them and all the expensive utilities we will consume for them.

Yeah, it’s just SO. GREAT. to be wanted. :roll:

Anyway. We cant find a vehicle big enough for all of us. Except a minivan. And I DO NOT WANT another minivan!!! If I have to endure the bloated elephant on wheels for another two decades, I’ll scream. Those things drop transmissions like rabbits drop pellets. Holy cow. I have had to replace a transmission on EVERY SINGLE minivan, and some more than once! Ya can’t just run to the local convenience store and grab one, you know. They *only* cost $2000 to $3000. And then you’re without a car for a week or two. Which brings us back to the original problem of finding a car that seats SIX!

Can we just move to the Netherlands, maybe, and ride bikes together?

Someone please tell me WHY even the hugest SUV only seats 5? Oh, unless you get a gas-guzzling Suburban that will need to be refilled every 2 miles. And with gas here in Upstate NY at $4 a gallon, I might as WELL move to the Netherlands. There, everyone is so skinny you’d think they’ve got slimming tablets in the drinking water, and they whizwhizwhiz around so effortlessly on the bikes. Here in America, we’ve got cars the size of army tanks with FIVE piddly seat belts. Something just ain’t right.

Maybe the Amish are having a sale on buggys?

Yeah, I feel sorry for the Toyota company right now. According to news reports, the company has had to recall over 2 million vehicles because of a stupid old car mat. Yep. Their accelerator pedals would get stuck on car mats.

HELLO?! Why recall the ENTIRE vehicle?! Just tell the lazy oafs to remove the dang mat!!!

The cars are luxury cars, too– real expensive, fancy cars: hybrids, 4Runner SUVs, RAV4 compact SUVs, Lexus LX 570s, RX 330, RX 350 and RX 400H vehicles, Toyota Highlander SUVs…. OUCH. And all because of a stupid old car mat.

I also feel very sorry for Toyota because of Government (General) Motors. Our Constitution gives NO RIGHT to the federal government owning private businesses. They have no legal right to manufacture cars than to sell oxyelite. NONE.

And you don’t think that the federal government owning a car manufacturer will have a negative affect on all the privately owned car manufacturers in the country? Think again. Let’s see how many GM recalls and fines we see over the next few years compared to the other manufacturers…

I’ve been heartened by the news that the new Congress is going to work to repeal Obamacare. I’m a little discouraged that the Congress is going to repeal it “piece by piece.” I’m impatient to see this piece of cr*p repealed. I don’t want them to mince around, splitting hairs while time runs out. The Congress had BETTER get this done, I tell you what. According to CNBC, Rep. Fred Upton of Michigan says his main priority is repealing he blasted thing.

Obamacare is a touchy topic for a lot of people, I know that. But it is an illegal and immoral piece of legislation. Illegal because the federal government has no power to regulate American citizens’ health, not AT ALL. They are barred from doing so by the Constitution and the 10th Amendment. If the STATES want to enact health care, so be it, that’s legal. Many do, and many do not. But the feds have NO POWER. And grabbing for such power over our laws and over our bodies is illegal AND immoral. Just the fact that Obamacare gives the IRS police powers is absolutely terrifying; these people have a horrible track record when dealing with American citizens.

And just so you know, my state offers health insurance for poor people, disabled people, and people in certain health situations. I have been on this insurance. Because it is run by the state, it is a bloated, frustrating monster. God forbid such a system should enlarge into a federal entity. It’s how I feel about so many things– education, energy, real estate, banking– the federal government is TOO BIG, too monstrous, too controlling. If I want to buy eggs or a furnace or commercial pumps or a car, I want it to be between ME and the seller, not with the meddling hands of the feds controlling everything.

I’m afraid for this country, I am. The federal government is swallowing up so much. People do not seem to care about freedoms as long as they get their “bread and circuses.” It makes me very nervous.

After seeing this headline, Push To Collect Online Sales Tax Gathering Support, I have a headache. These bureaucrats in government are really pushing things too far. I can’t even begin to remonstrate how WRONG it is to charge sales tax from an online purchase from another state. Hello? Ever hear of the interstate commerce clause?! If I buy home remedies for blackheads in New Jersey and I live in California, I cannot be charged with sales tax! The Constitution forbids one state making sales tax money off purchases made in another state!!! It’s ILLEGAL! Not that that has ever stopped any politician…. *sigh*

Well, in the spirit of taxation and regulation, I have an idea! The states are in bad fiscal shape through mismanagement? How about you guys go where the REAL money is!

Tax political speeches. This will generate a TON of money, instantly. It may even decrease the endless speeches! Which may even have the splendid result of reducing hot air greenhouse gases, all in one blow!

Tax every Congressman every time he votes to raise taxes. That’ll make him think twice.

Tax “medical services” such as abortions and Viagara drugs. That’ll probably make quite a number of politicians think twice, as well.

Tax the Federal Reserve. Why not? They tax us for the honor of printing our own money!!! (Also unConstitutional).

See? There are numerous ways to fix this problem. I wish they’d quit killing the little guy with taxes– cuz if they were really serious about revenue, they’d reduce spending and quit bailing out every whining banker and politician…
