<p>[quote user="Javelina"]</p> <p> </p> <p>No matter how you vote the world is a bigger place than the good ol' US of A. Things all over affect us, and it's up to us to do things about it, not complain. Scratchbuild, go solar, ride your bike to work if you can, do all you can to cope with things. But don't waste your time being a victim. Railroad with what you have, just like the real guys did in the Great Depression. </p> <p> </p> <p>Respectfully,</p> <p>Lou</p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>I'm not sure I agree with this. The US could be self-sufficient if our powers-at-be would allow it. Going solar might solve the problem if I wanted to light one light bulb...I couldn't afford a solar panel big enough to power my house. Bicycles? A lot of people, me included, have moved away from the cities to escape all of the crap. There is no way I could ride a bike to work. I'm certainly not playing the victim...I just don't like where we are headed.</p> <p>And to respond to another post, I have the right to complain about high gas prices. The previous pres was hammered when gas prices rose...the current occupant gets a pass.</p>
