Food for Thought: The land of milk and honey

By Robert Blagen

Unbelievable that the Human Race could screw up such a country as we have. We have the most “Milk and Honey” of any country in the world, but we have been screwed up by politicians and greedy corporate corruption. It’s gotten so bad that nobody trusts anybody. The government has so many stupid regulations and environmental laws that you can’t build a pipeline or open a coal mine. It’s gotten so bad that you can hardly start any business, and if you do, it will take at least ten years to jump all the hurdles. In that time, nothing changes. You still have to dig up the ground and put the pipe in, same as you would have ten years ago, but you would have cost the company ten million dollars for no good reason. I wonder if the BS will ever get better, or will it get worse? With the “greenies,” “global warmers,” and the “climate changers,” political correctness has made everything so much worse that it doesn’t look like there is any light at the end of the tunnel. Yet, despite all the problems and setbacks, the country seems to struggle ahead. It just shows where there’s a will; there’s a way forward despite all the roadblocks. Thank God for our honest local small businesses! It gives us hope for all humankind!
