OPEN LETTER TO STATE SENATOR LAVALLE

Dear Senator LaValle,

I just received your email regarding your celebration of the government solar panel project on long island, where you describe "green energy" as "the blueprint to our nation's future".

As you know I am a great supporter of yours. However the construction of the largest solar panel array on long island, is a shinning behemoth of government waste. It's stuns me that your are caught up in the green stampede of stupidity.

Whether the money came from the Feds, the State, or the County, the cost is ultimately born by the private sector and people like me.
Please tell me Senator, what is the return on investment of such a boondoggle? What is the cost per watt, on this government white elephant?

Of course no government project is complete without an ample new staff of new government employees and their obscene benefits which will be paid by further picking our pockets by threat of law. How much will I be paying for these new managers of this shinning accomplishment of government ingenuity.

Senator it saddens me to see you cheering this absurdity and buying into the 'green sustainability' politically correct movement.

Government did not invent the oil well. Private enterprising Americans did. The Government did not create the iphone, though it did mandate the taxes for it, and the iphone did not require one dime of federal tax credits or subsidies to entice people to buy them.

However government is responsible for Ethanol which requires federal subsidies for people to buy it and consequently causing corn prices (a food staple) to rise exponentially. The brilliant Chevy Electric Volt with a range of 27 miles at a cost of 50 thousand dollars, is another great government accomplishment.

Much to it's credit Government did build a nuclear power plant in Shoreham . It was supposed to cost millions according to the government, yet ended up costing billions of taxpayer dollars. It was shutdown before it even opened, by the Government. Result you and I are paying a monthly 120% monthly surcharge, making our electricity the costliest in the nation.

Nuclear energy is sustainable energy. Oil drilling and pipelines are sustainable reliable energy. And they are all provided by the PRIVATE sector, and they instantly propelled our nation to become the greatest most prosperous nation on earth. Our Greatness is sustainable, but government pilled on the taxes, the regulations the mandates, the restrictions on exploration drilling and building nuclear plants.
Result we are now paying $4/gallon for gasoline with over 40 mandated Basskin-Robins blends.


As a public servant, Mr. LaValle I respectfully ask you re-evaluate what you believe the role of government should be. May I suggest you find the answer by re-read ingthe Constitution, starting with the Declaration of Independence.
You are not our providers. Your are not our nannies nor our rulers. Your job is paid for by me and the millions of New Yorkers. You govern only at our consent.

So please return to your founding principles,. The values you possess that have made you an accomplished decent representative of the people.

Please focus on legislation that works to RESTORE our INDIVIDUAL liberties instead of finding ways to put more shackles on us. Focus on legislation to remove the impediments and taxes you have placed on business.

But asking us to cheer for another wasteful government project is insulting.

Have a Great Thanksgiving. If you want your turkey to be cooked in time for your dinner, I suggest you don't gamble on a sunny day, to get those solar panels fired up to keep your oven running.
Try sustainable gas or electric ovens (powered by coal or oil). Your family will thank you for it :)


Respectfully your avid supporter,

OBAMA'S AMERICA

Though incorrectly attributed to Dr. Thomas Sowell.
This is a brilliant assessment our nation at this hour in history:

The current Occupy Wall Street movement is the best illustration to date of what President Barack Obama's America looks like. It is an America where the lawless, unaccomplished, ignorant and incompetent rule. It is an America where those who have sacrificed nothing pillage and destroy the lives of those who have sacrificed greatly.

It is an America where history is rewritten to honor dictators, murderers and thieves. It is an America where violence, racism, hatred, class warfare and murder are all promoted as acceptable means of overturning the American civil society.

It is an America where humans have been degraded to the level of animals:
defecating in public, having sex in public, devoid of basic hygiene. It is an America where the basic tenets of a civil society, including faith, family, a free press and individual rights, have been rejected. It is an America where our founding documents have been shredded and, with them, every person's guaranteed liberties.

It is an America where, ultimately, great suffering will come to the American people, but the rulers like Obama, Michelle Obama, Harry Reid, Nancy Pelosi, Barney Frank, Chris Dodd, Joe Biden, Jesse Jackson, Louis Farrakhan, liberal college professors, union bosses and other loyal liberal/Communist Party members will live in opulent splendor.

It is the America that Obama and the Democratic Party have created with the willing assistance of the American media, Hollywood , unions, universities, the Communist Party of America, the Black Panthers and numerous anti-American foreign entities.

Barack Obama has brought more destruction upon this country in four years than any other event in the history of our nation, but it is just the beginning of what he and his comrades are capable of.

The Occupy Wall Street movement is just another step in their plan for the annihilation of America.
