How the heck do you figure wind mills and solar farms are keeping fuel prices down? Drilling rigs boring holes here is what keeps the fuel prices down. I think the country as a whole is better off today than it has been in a very long time. If the country is better off we as Americans are better off as a whole. My thinking is supply and demand, it takes a lot of fuel to produce electric power. Almost 18% of the electrical power generated in the US came from wind and solar in 2018. I believe your right on the country Randy, but shouldn't you be putting something away when things are so good? I saved and paid my debts when times were good. We're not doing anything but spending and cutting taxes to those who can afford pay them. There's going to be a bunch of folks looking for a bailout when things change, and they will. I find it very odd that so many folks have a positive attitude in the way the country is being run. Hopefully that's a good thing. Has your electric bill per KWH gone down anywhere near 18%? Didn't think so.. Where the electrons come from is only an issue if there is a shortage of diesel/nat gas...........there isn't. Transportation fuel usage (gasoline/diesel/jet fuel/avgas) is still by far, the #1 use for any product made from a barrel of crude.

How many prominent dumbocraps wouldn't ruin the beef industry if they could? Either directly or indirectly. What's on their ticket? Two f'n vegans and the rest marginally different degrees of climate change socialists? Hold Republicans feet to the fire but don't damage the party, and don't let the other side's wolf in the door.....or maybe more accurately.... camel's head under the tent. We're not even human to many of them.

I don't understand why they are attacking cattle. Cattle do not destroy our climate, and I know when one Democrat says something, then they all start repeating it over and over. It is such a joke that it is even brought up. What is their goal? To build subdivisions on pasture land? I guess they feel that people should not own that much land. Socialism could really destroy our nation if it ever took hold.

what would you be doing differently high grit? Yeah... because apparently galavanting around the country and laying on the beach is tough times.

I was talking to my husband about it and he said the real argument is about methane gas given off by the lagoons at big operations such as dairies and feed lots. Yet, these idiots are talking about cow farts. I have been around cattle a long time and yet to have heard a cow fart yet. Now horses are a different thing. If the methane coming off the lagoons are the culprit, why are they referring to cow farts?? What is the real argument here?

That's why it's so hard to argue with a liberal, they don't understand what it is they are arguing.

I read it and I don't like it. I think anyone that wants that for the US should have to spend 12 months as a regular citizen and not in police or in an any kind of public office in Cuba or China. They need to see how their citizens live. Then if they come back saying that they liked it, then send them back for good.

In socialism, individuals own nothing. Everything belongs to or is controlled by the central committee or The Hive.
"Resistance is Futile...you will be assimilated"
That's their goal.

In the "Youtube" section, angusrancher posted "A Man that Windsurfed to Escape Cuba" was a great video for people to watch if they are not sure how they live in Cuba. I could not get over the fact that he said he would go to jail for 6 years if he got caught eating a lobster or any kind of beef. And all they had to eat were potatoes for a very long time. They actually busted up their furniture because they had no wood to cook the potatoes with. I wonder if they are allowed to fish at all? They had many days that they had 16 hours of no electricity and often 12 hours.
Can you imagine going to jail for eating something??? He said the first day he got to New York, he ate a hamburger and some french fries, and it shocked him that he was allowed to eat it and the portion was so big that he could not finish the plate. Just imagine how each day would be filled with depression from not being able to take better care of your family or seeing others that could be worse off than you, and you cannot help them.
Bernie and the squad need to load up and get a masters education in Cuba. 6 years as a regular citizen and not allowed to take any of their money to Cuba with them.

You couldn't convince the socialist crowd anything if they watched 100 videos like that, probably even if they lived like it. They are under the premise that socialism is great, and if it failed in places like Cuba it's only because it was implemented wrong. They will implement it correctly so of course it will work great.
As you know, there is only one way socialism can be implemented and it doesn't work.
