The economy is suffering, families are working ever more diligently to provide basic needs! So let’s make heating/cooling of homes cost even more! Have we entered the Twilight Zone?

Several years ago public uproar was quieted by the promise to offer choice of electric co. by a new law. This news gave us hope, since we live on the line of a rural company which supplies our electric & the company which sells the electric to our company (literally 2 houses between the 2 power lines). We do not, however, have a choice of electric companies. So, we pay double to triple the price of electric-enough cost to make a house payment or provide a college education. NOW, rather than expect hope of relief of this overinflated cost of electric, my husband and I can expect to pay even more to heat/power our home as our son wonders how to pay for college in 1 years’ time. Thank you my country’s leaders!

Nothing at all! Maybe we should now do something to keep it from getting too cold. Who is so foolish as to think we can control the temperature of this world?  Thousands of great scientists renounce the theory of global warming. Why don’t our senators listen to them?

It’s the American people’s fault it’s out fault, what I mean is we put up with what ever the the ones in leadership throw at us, we vote them in,you and I need to speak up and take a stand for what is right(I’m guilty)The ones in leadership don’t have any common since. When your not in tune with God and the Holy Spirit how could you be in touch with reality? I’m not against anyone being rich but some of these people (not all) in leadership positions have always had money and can’t relate to the poor, their focus is not on helping the poor or making the world a better place to live, their focus is on how can we make more money. They have never experienced the like of money and therefore can’t feel the pain of the poor.But Jesus is coming soon, Thanks

After that will population growth be restricted? Perhaps that will be part of the comprehesive health care bill.
