Default OT- Power outage in NY. Coincidence?

I think it's best to just let your last message sit in the water like
chopped fish in a minnow trap, and see what it attracts.

Translation: You are willing to play Russian roulette with the health of
your children and grandchildren so a handful of corporations don't have to
suffer a few years of economic hardship. Before patriotism, before faith to
a deity, before anything else, your responsibility as a father is the most
important thing on earth. By shirking that responsibility, you become the
lowest form of garbage imaginable.

And you still haven't answered the basic question of just how much you
are willing to give up to achieve your utopian environment.

My concern for economic hardship has nothing to do with corporations
(although it would fit your agenda to believe that), but rather how the
increased costs will be passed on to the people, many of whom will not
be able to afford it.

So, what you're saying is: our electricity supply system cannot be upgraded (not
because it would reduce corporate profit, although it certainly would, nudge
nudge wink wink) but because it would create economic hardship for poor people.
This is one step away from advocating socializing the power utilities. Careful
Dave, put down the computer and back away....

That's certainly one conclusion, but not the one I'd advocate. If it
were, I'd have said so. But I don't favor socialism in any form.
