What will be the cost of not reforming health care?

Primus: Millions of Americans do not have health insurance and millions more will never receive coverage because greedy, al-Qaida like insurance companies would rather cut off their heads than provide universal health care. The result will be hurt, harm and suffering of millions upon millions of Americans plus the weakening of our great nation. Only if we unite and provide universal health care for all Americans will we be the strongest nation that we can be. Failure to unite and provide universal health care to ALL OF US, may result in the destruction of families and even the destruction of America at the hands of greedy al-Qaida like insurance companies.

When you poke a stick in a spinning wheel it can cause disastrous results, even killing the rider of the bicycle or motorcycle. This is exactly what Republicans have done to health care reform. The result may be catastrophic for millions of Americans, especially the increasing numbers of baby bloomers who are rapidly aging and will soon become senior citizens.

The insurance companies make billions of dollars in profits annually by gambling upon our health and longevity. It is the insurance companies which will profits the most by no health care reform; hence they have lobbied heavily against health care reform, doing everything in their power to stop health care reform. The consequences of this greedy behavior will be catastrophic for millions of Americans as they grow older and will only enrich the coffers of already rich insurance companies.

The one thing all insurance companies hate is having to pay a claim, because no matter how just the claims, it means a loss of profits for the insurance companies. The one claim that insurance companies hate paying the most is when someone dies. Yet we are all going to die one day. The insurance companies know this, so the one thing they try to do is avoid having to pay what anyone's life is worth when they die. And the next thing that the insurance companies try to avoid paying is what it cost to keep you healthy in body and mind as you grow older, as they do not want you to have sense enough to know when you are being screwed over, exploited and financially raped and robbed!

Hence the insurance companies all have one thing in common; they want you to pay for policies that have so many exclusive clauses in them that when you get older they will not have to pay for your health care nor any significant amount when you die. And guess what, when you are old and grey, locked away in a nursing home behind electronic doors with a security guard to prevent your escape, you won't even have the presence of mind to even know how terribly you have been exploited, or be able to do anything about it! You will simply fade away in a cloud of delirium, as those who could have made your last days better laugh and play while vacationing at a tropical resort spending all the money they have made off of the sick and the dying who had the blinds pulled over their eyes by the most clever con artist of all, insurance companies.

You see, if health care reform is passed, then enormous sums of money are going to be lost by the big insurance companies. They will not be able to compete with the government which will be offering everyone health care for a reasonable price. That is the singular reason Republicans backed by insurance companies do not want health care reform. And guess what, those Republicans are covered very well and have good health insurance; they simply do not care about all the pain, suffering, death and dying which everyone else will experience, putting it out of their minds, basking in the same sun at the same tropical resorts and parties as attended by their insurance company hosts.

So what will be the cost of NOT reforming health care? It will be exactly what my dear mother is now experiencing. Millions of aging Americans will find themselves locked away in nursing homes, made prisoners and exploited by the various states who have no other way to provide for their health care than to make them wards of the state, taking power and control of all their income, taking away their homes and causing catastrophic damage, destroying families, and gleefully walking to the bank with all that our dear parents and grandparents worked their whole lives to acquire. And because they take everything there will not even be any money for surviving family members to hire an attorney to fight this cruel and inhumane injustice.

The result of NOT reforming health care is going to destroy millions upon millions of lives of those who are now growing older by the day, whom will one day find themselves just as did my dear mother, a victim of a failed health cares system, and greedy, powerful people who take advantage of their incapacity to financially rape and rob them, destroying their families, and caring naught for the havoc the wrought!

Thus when you open a newspaper, turn on the television, or listen to the radio and hear someone saying how terrible Obama's health care reform is, remember this: health care reform is for ALL OF US, for all of the United States of America. Health care reform in not Obama's; health care refore is America's best hope for the future!

In contrast it is the insurance companies who are profiting by bashing health care reform. These same insurance companies buy advertising and support the anti-health care reform propaganda being spouted by Republicans who are in their pockets. What appears as editorial comment or programming is but deceptive advertising sponsored by the insurance companies!

Millions upon millions of un-insured Americans, many of whom have already suffered catastrophic losses due to an ill or elderly family member, we are the ones who are going to suffer from failure to effect health care reform. At present there are over 30 million Americans who do not have health insurance or who have pre-existing conditions and cannot get health insurance. Each day the number of Americans who do not have health insurance is increasing. As we grow older, become ill or incapacitated, lose our jobs, or suffer other unforeseen circumstances, we are going to be the ones who suffer the most if we listen to the brainwashing babble and anti-health insurance reform drivel of Republicans and media supported by the for profit screw you over insurance companies.

The effort by greedy and corrupt insurance companies to prevent health care reform is an outright scandalous exploitation and fraud upon America! Those newspapers, radio stations, television stations, and other media outlets publishing and broadcasting this lying and deceitful anti-health care reform propaganda are contributing to the hurt and harm which will be done to millions upon millions of Americans. Such support in the form editorial propaganda and shark feeding frenzy journalism is killing millions of Americans and causing millions of more to suffer. It's all the result of greed, greed and more greed and those contributing to such scandalous journalism should be ashamed of themselves!

Those who have a heart and who care about the the welfare of their fellow man and woman, who can see the mountain top and realize that on the next tomorrow it is going to be ALL OF US who will be old and elderly; that it is going to be ALL OF US who are without health care or cannot afford the enormous expense of a catastrophic illness; that it is going to be ALL OF US and our most loved family members who are locked away, made wards of the state and impoverished by the greed of those in power and control; that it is going to be ALL OF US who are exploited, financially raped and robbed by a failed health care system! We who can see the light, should act now to support health care reform!

What will be the cost of health care reform? The question that should be asked is what will be the cost of failure to enact health care reform? That cost will be the suffering of millions upon millions of Americans. That cost will be the loss of homes, property and the destruction of families. That cost will be so enormous that it cannot be conceived nor measured! That cost is one we can not afford as a nation, and it will be a cost that could destroy America if we fail to provide universal health care for all our citizens!

It should thus be obvious that America needs health care reform and it needs it now! Unless we provide all our citizens with health care, the cost will be so great in suffering, so great in hurt and harm, that it will destroy our nation. For we are a nation of people, of families, of citizens who cannot endure and prosper to our greatest potential among an increasing world population unless we are a healthy people, a healthy nation. The sick, the old, the diseased, the ill ... they will die and that will be ALL OF US one day. The only way to lessen the suffering is to provide each and every American with universal health care.

Yes, there will be a price in dollars and cents to provide all Americans with health care. But the price of not doing so will be catastrophic and could destroy our nation. We are not guaranteed survival as a species nor as a nation. There are others who wish our destruction. Yet our enemies also include those who contribute to our own demise, who prey upon and exploit the ill, the elderly, helpless children, and others who, through no fault of their own, may need a helping hand. Greedy insurance companies are as great a threat to the prosperity of America as are terrorists, perhaps even more of a threat! That is why we must support universal health care, for each and everyone of us, should we be fortunate to live long enough, is sooner or later going to need health care. And the clear and present danger that our great nations faces is that the greedy
al-Qaida like insurance companies would as soon have our heads cut off as have to cover all Americans!

I am a patriotic American, and I am not a fool. I can see when I'm being screwed over. Time and again the greedy al-Qaida like insurance companies are screwing over not only me and my family, but million upon millions of Americans! If you have health insurance odds are that you are being screwed over because insurance companies profit by gambling that they will never have to pay out. More than likely when you do need health care, an exemption will exclude you. More than likely you will die as result of an accident or sudden death, and not a cent will have to be paid toward your health care. Or you will let your policy laps when it is needed most. These and thousands of other circumstances will enable the al-Qaida like insurance companies from paying out what you have paid into your health care. Hence everyone who has private health care is playing Russian roulette! And those who do not have health care have already pulled the trigger!

The point is that all Americans should have universal health care from birth to death, regardless of their circumstances. We should not be made victims of al-Qaida like insurance companies nor be forced to play Russian roulette with our lives or the lives of our children, nor the lives of our elderly parents and grandparents. Yet that is exactly what is being done. We are being forced to gamble with our lives, with our health, by greedy, self-serving, al-Qaida like insurance companies, who are holding a gun to our heads, who are blowing away large numbers of Americans do not qualify for coverage or can't afford to play their game!

America, it is time to see the light and wake up! Support universal health care for all Americans! The future of our great nation depends upon our having a healthy, vigorous, population. We will stand only if we are united, and we will be united only if we provide universal health care for all our citizens!

Pact with the Devil: Mahmoud Ahmadinejad plans to hold the world hostage.

Iran's president, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, has made a pact with the devil, Osama bin Laden, and declared Holy War (Jihad) against the United States of America and its allies. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad met with Osama bin Laden at an undisclosed location and agreed to help supply al Qaeda with arms, ammunition, and a sophisticated new class of remotely controlled IEDs (Improvised Explosive Devices) to use in terrorists attacks against both military and civilian targets. It is alleged that Iran will also supply al Qaeda nuclear waste materials to use in conjunction with these new IEDs to make dirty bombs. Reliable sources within Iran have risked their lives to make this information known to associates outside Iran in the hopes of preventing a wider conflict between Iran and the United States, given a war with Iran could result in the death of many innocent Iranians.

It has also been learned that in addition to supplying al Qaeda with nuclear waste materials to use with IEDs, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, who is regarded as a dictator by the majority of Iranians, is moving forward with plans to construct a dozen or so underground facilities for the enrichment of uranium. Although this was announced to the public by Mahmoud Ahmadinejad himself, what was not revealed is that in these same hidden plants highly classified munitions will be produced, including IEDs or dirty bombs with nuclear waste materials. Also a highly classified facility is in operation to develop cyber warfare technologies, including methods to remotely attack high tech targets around the world. These cyber IEDs as some have come to call them, can disable computers which are connected to the Internet or infect computers remotely through Wyfi, SkyPe, or other wireless services.

Cyber IEDs have actually already been tested and been used by Iranian agents to disable computers in America. In fact our anonymous sources claim that they have attacked computers operated by both industry and the military, as well as private individuals, using the general public to test the results of their research and development. Sources report that one of the reasons Mahmoud Ahmadinejad declared to the world that he is not afraid of America and is moving forward to develop a number of hidden uranium enrichment facilities is to really hide the nature of what these facilities are really being used to develop. It is NOT the enrichment of uranium to make a nuclear bomb which is the purpose, but the development of cyber IEDs which may be tied in with dirty bombs to remotely attack sites any where in the world.

The dirty cyber IEDs being developed in secret locations in Iran include briefcase size devices that can be transported anywhere in the world, secreted in an automobile, placed upon an airplane, train, or hidden inside a building, then exploded remotely by agents either in the field or located virtually anywhere in the world, including command centers back in Iran. The plan is to mass product hundreds of thousands, perhaps millions of such devices, to be used in a cyber Jihad against the United States, its allies, and all nations who resist the future plans of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad to hold the world hostage, just as he held American embassy personal hostage as a young man in the movement that brought him to power.

Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's goal is to dominate the entire world through his ability to explode dirty nuke cyber bombs, using al Qaeda and other terrorist groups as its agents. In secret Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has developed a master plan for world domination, which is why maintaining control in Iran is so vital. If Mahmoud Ahmadinejad allowed himself to be defeated in an election, his megalomaniac dreams of holding the world hostage and dominating humanity would go out the window. Hence in the recent election Mahmoud Ahmadinejad used his position as president to insure that when votes were counted he would win, even though it was obvious to the vast majority of Iranians that the election was fraudulent.

Our sources in Iran have told us that these revelations just touch the surface of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's master plan to hold the world hostage and achieve world domination. Agreements are being made with other terrorist states and organizations to supply them with cyber IED technology, that there will be no way to attribute future attacks solely to Iran. This includes using devices manufactured in Red China or other Moslem states in the production of cyber IEDs.

These allegations were confirmed when electronic documents were translated from Arabic to English complete with digital diagrams of a small dirty cyber IED small enough to fit inside a brief case, yet able to cause death and destruction of thousands of people, especially if exploded remotely in a stadium or other location where a large number of people were gathered, as for a sporting event, celebration, religious pilgrimage, or even a gathering of world leaders. According to our sources, such remotely detonated cyber IEDs could be armed with not only dirty nuclear waste materials, but biological agents, such that their explosion synchronously by remote control might infect millions of people all at the same time.

In fact, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's master plan is to do exactly that, to produce so many cyber IEDs that he can attack any where in the world with relative ease, and claim his innocence, attributing the attacks to various terrorist groups, just as has been done in the past with more conventional terrorists attacks. Our sources state that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has himself already been the master mind behind terrorist attacks attributed to al Qaeda, the Taliban. and other terrorist organizations funded and/or supplied indirectly by Iran. What has made terrorists attacks in Iraq and Afghanistan so successful is that Iran has supplied sophisticated IEDs. Now with plans to produce a new cyber IED that can be armed with nuclear waste materials or even biological agents, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad hopes to see his plans to hold the whole world hostage become a reality within his lifetime.

Our sources said that what Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has done is basically to make a pact with the Devil himself! Through his position as president of Iran, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad can institute those secret research and development programs to produce new high technology weapons such as cyber IEDs. By maintaining secrecy and using the smoke screen that hidden underground facilities are for the enrichment of uranium, Mahmoud Ahmadinejad can proceed with his development of such weapons as cyber IEDs and has even developed a new class of remotely controlled submarine that can operate at depths, slip into ports anywhere in the world, and be detonated by remote control. Mahmoud Ahmadinejad calls these what translates roughly as his "white shark death angels" as they simulate white sharks and can be used to attack not only port cities around the world, but military fleets, to break the back of America's military might and control of the high seas.

It is clear from what our sources have revealed that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is a megalomaniac as ruthless and bad as any the world has ever known should his ambitions of holding the world hostage be let to come to light. Therefore his assassination is justified. Also it would be justified for peace loving nations to make preemptive strikes against Iran to destroy all so called uranium enrichment facilities. If Iran is permitted to mass produce such weapons of mass destruction and terrorism as cyber IEDs and white shark death angels, the world will indeed find itself held hostage by a mad man!

If inquiry is made we cannot reveal our sources. It is enough to know they are within Iran and their revelation would result in their immediate torture and death. Please help by sharing these revelations with all peace loving peoples around the world. Only through knowing Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's megalomaniac plans to hold the whole world hostage can he and his regime be stopped before it is too late for humanity.

Blogs are an interactive, multimedia, creative experience

Recently I spent the morning answering an email to an associate and sharing some advice and opinions with regard to getting Blogger up and running. I thought others my enjoy this rather entertaning muse which I've edited to remove any comments or links that may identify my friend:

Dear Friend,
My keyboard seems a bit stick today the "a" key keeps wanting to type aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa may need a new keyboard before long. I tried turning it upside down and beating it but the damn thing now seems worse.................. so I gave it a blow job ..... drug in the big air compressor, cranked it up, let it build up 40 pounds of pressure and then began blasting away. I also opened up the computer and blaster her .... boy the dust that came out of that thing. I should have been wearing a gas mask. Damn, did not realize this house was so dusty. Guess I'd better start doing that every 3-4 months. Now AOL's auto spell check programs is telling me that that string of a's is misspelled. What to do? :-) At least the keys are not sticking now so I might be able to tell you how to post on your blog.

1. Log in. Go to your blog site and log in.
2. Point and click on the "B" logo.
3. When you point and click on the "B" logo it should take you to your account. Then you should be able to choose a template (you can just go with the default template to start).
4. Then select "New Post" or something like that.

You basically need to use a "Click on It To Everything Approach" to learn any new program. Really, just click on it and see what happens. The worse that could happen is one day someone evil bastard makes a program that when someone clicks on a particular sequence of buttons it sets off a chain reaction that destroys the world. I'm sure there are probably terrorists or rogue governments somewhere working on how to do that now. In fact, from what I here the Red Chinese are sponsoring hackers to breaking computers and steal high technology secrets ... the Iranians are probably doing the same thing as they'de like to get their nukes developed and flying. And India is really making outstanding progress with new supersonic cruse missile technology. We Yankees ain't the only ones who got smarts, as like it or not, humans all share much the same genetic code, and we can all be evil bastards or angels, which ever we choose on any given day.

I think all the blogs have forums where you can go to get help. But really it ain't rocket science. Any problems might be the result of whatever is fogging you head. Hey, my dear mother turned form a completely coherent, alert, cross-word puzzle working, family problem solving guru, to a blooming vegetable over night!

I didn't know WTF was happening; neither did anyone else. It took a neurologist to make a diagnosis and discover she had some form of dementia, not Alheimer's disease, but some dysfunctional impairment that none-the-less is like turning off a billion neural switched in the brain leaving one half-zombie, half their former self. It was quite catastrophic and most everyone responded worse than if she had AIDS, were a lesbian, turned black, or all of the above. This happened in 2003 when I lived in Montgomery, Alabama, perhaps still one of the most prejudice states in the union, where all the schools which were integrated in the 1960's are now "black" schools, and all the socially well to do white folk send their children to private church operated schools so they want be "infected" by whatever makes black people black. Plus what is especially awful is that many of the people who have this type of mentality are judges, lawyers, or in positions of power, that their ignorance, prejudice or intolerance effects such people as my dear mother when they become incapacitated.

So it was the worse place my mother could have become incapacitated. I responded by leaving the state of Alabama and starting the Elder Rights Association, on on-line publication advocating the rights of the elderly. Even if I can't to much to help my dear mother, at least I can share her story that it may help others.

I mention this so you might know I've been through the hell of seeing my own mother go from the best Mom in the world, to a foggy cloud. It results in a lot of tears and heart break. And seeing how many greedy and corrupt people responded to her, some of them even family members, to financially rape, rob and destroy my dear mother's life and family, literally was a wake up call that not much has changed in Alabama -- only now the prejudice and slave master mentality is directed toward the elderly who have become helpless. For you see, in Alabama the exploitation of the elderly is a billion dollar industry, and my mother fell into the trap, not even knowing it existed and was set ... much like when a wild and free animal is trapped.

I therefore have some understanding from baring witness to this tragic experience, that as we grow older our minds can fog. Sometimes it is a slow process. But at other times it can happen more suddenly. Any ill health no doubt may accelerate the process.

Therefore I do not mind helping you in whatever little way I might to publish you muse. But I don't like playing the role of critic. I'm a writer myself, so it is best I not say too much about works in progress. I can help you edit your work when done or convert it from one form to another and try to get it published, but you need to do the nuts and bolts of it yourself while your mind is still clear enough. All I suggest is that you try to explain matters, as if talking to people who do not know what you are talking about, so that the simple and obvious to you, are made clear to the reader. Also I enjoy reading adult stories, which deal with adult themes, that include sex, violence, deep mental struggles and issues. I'm not really into this Harry Potter, whimp vampire Twilight crap that is so popular and may be really profitable. However, Harry Potter would have been devoured by the first dragon he ever met were he in J.R. Tolkein's trilogy, and these nice, proper and sexless girly twats in Twilight would have all their blood sucked out and left for dust by any real Old World vampire.

However, should you want some LIVE help with the blog you would need to download Yahoo IM once you get you tower system fired up. Then we might chat real time. I've helped a lot of people remotely and even enjoyed a little cyber with some fair maidens in such far away lands as the Philippines and Russia Some of the girls on www.itslive.com will make you wish you were 18 again!

Yes, I am a horny old fart, but I am not the one who invented all this new finagled technology. I suggest when your mind clears you try to get your blog setup so you can post your muse. And hell, if you want to commit suicide in a more pleasurable way and die of a heart attack, visit some of the hot, wet and wild ameature girls on www.Itslive.com, they will clear your head real fast and you might find yourself remembering your yesteryears and writing about something besides drilling nuke holes and brine shrimp.

Not that I have anything against brine shrimp. Why when but a lad I would put their eggs in a drop of saline solution and watch them hatch under the microscope. Still to day I find the myrid of microscopic organisms in a drop of water every bit as enthralling and intriguing to watch as some of the gyrating cum twats on the net. However, I think I'm a bit peculiar in that respect. It seems in this age of cyber sex we old farts are dropping like leaves and unless you write about sexless vampires or prostitute yourself out to deprived horny bastards on the net, no one is going to pay much attention to you.

It is a different age from what it was 40 or 50 years ago ... even from what it was 20 years ago. Now people don't buy magazines to read short stories or look at centerfolds, they on online and watch women playing with themselves in their bedrooms. It is surely a voyeurs paradise; you don't even have to put a coin in a slot to watch and jerk off. Or switch the channel and go to YouTube at www.youtube.com or It's Live at www.itslive.com and watch your favorite videos.

Now why do I mention this, which you probably already know. Because all these forms of media are competition, and unless you check out the competition you will not see what you are up against. It may not matter if all you want to do is publish on-line, which certainly you can do with a blog. But you need to realize when doing so your blog can be interactive. You can actually link to whatever other sites you want, even gyrating damsels, and contrast them to your own memories, or just reflect upon how much the world has changed.

Yes, you can write a blog and just do it the old fashion way with words. Or you can drop in links to particular words. I often drop in links to my designs, especially when that is the topic. Or I drop in links to my dogs pic. But my God you can drop in links to everything from brine shrimp to videos of nukes going off. You can make your blog dynamic, and that's why I wanted to mention this.

Now what I could do is take one of your recent pieces, edit it for you and add links to show you how this can be done. Then you can post it on your blog. There are a million different ways this can be done. The point is that there is a LINK function so that when you write you can actually drop in links yourself. This is one of the things you may want to do.

Now I could also make all your stories interactive in this way, simply making key words have a Google link so people could just click on them and see what comes up. In fact, that is the easiest way to make a blog interactive. If for no other reason this can be done to make what your are writing about more educational and informative. When then published using traditional print media the links can be translated to their URL. Or if published on a CD the links would remain active.

What you may benefit from realizing is that books are not just words in print any more. Even ancient writings and works like the Holy Bible have been digitized and made interactive in this manner. I realize for the moment you just want to concentrate on writing stories and publishing before you die, but I wanted to let you know that I am aware of the fact that we are living in a new age, where everything is interactive, and it is only going to get more and more that way in the future ... long after you and I are gone, what every we put out there is going to be just a drop in the bucket of what the mass of humanity is going to literally have at its finger tips.

The reason for noting this is because authors and writers generally want others to read what they write. That's part of the process. Yes, you may write or create just for yourself, I do that constantly. But there are other consequences. One is that others may read your work and perhaps be influenced by it. Two, it gives the author a form of immortality. A thousand years from not someone may see something that you scribbled, just as we see what was inscribed and chiseled upon the ancient Egyptian tombs 3,000 to 4,000 odd years ago. I might not be able to understand what it means, but you got to admit, the Great Sphinx and the Pyramids of Gaza make an impression!

So, my friend, if you do manage to figure out how to start posting on your blog, note that you can click on the LINK function and add some interactivity to your blog. So if you are talking about a subject like drilling nuke holes which is not common knowledge to everyone, you can add a link. Or if you want to mention how things have changed since you were a young lad and Playboy was recreational material that teens snuck away from their parents and hid away in the bathroom or bedroom with, whereas today all you have to do is click on sites like www.itslive.com and presto you are in a girls bedroom, such little magic might add a new dimension to your work. Plus the process can make your work not only more educational and informative, but more people might actually read it ... plus such browsing to discover new links can be inspirational or enlightening in and of itself to the author.

Ah, if nothing else perhaps checking out It's Live at www.itslive.com will clear your head! :-) Some of the girls there are really "Girls gone wild!" Whereas many try to tempt visitors into a private chat, which starts the meter running, many are there just because they get off on being exhibitionists and showing their God given gifts and talents to the world. I've heard tell of some girls using It's Live to find sugar daddies, but that might just be a yarn. But if you really wanted a tale to tale, you might make your own investigation and then report the results in your blog. Boy, that might make for some interesting reading. :-) Gee, I might even considering doing that myself.

Hope to see your blog posts soon.

Take care and good luck.

Terry

PS What I'm going to try to do edit one of your last bits of muse and send it back to you as an .HTML type file that you can cut/paste and drop into your blog with interactive links, so you can actually see exactly what I'm talking about. And/or I may post it on your sites also so you can see how this works. Not that you will want to keep my links, but this will give you an idea of what is possible. Of course in a blog you can also drop in other media including photographs, audio, video, links to other peoples blogs or entire web pages. It might take a bit of experimenting, but this is all possible. Telling a story ain't just pounding the keyboard anymore -- it is an interactive, multimedia, creative experience.

We Need Jobs Now In Clarke Co. Mississippi

We need jobs in Clarke County and we need the now. I suggest that instead of building a dirty, out-dated, low tech, coal burning power plant in Kemper County, we build a clean burning, high tech, state-of-the-art natural gas burning power plant right here in Clarke County.

There are many reasons for NOT building what will amount to an environmental disaster coal burning power plant in Kemper County. The biggest reason is because this will result in pollution of our air and water and destruction or our environment. That should be reason enough to throw out the bad idea of building a coal burning power plant. But the best reason is because we have plenty of natural clean burning gas, and therefore it makes much more sense to build a new natural gas burning power plant right here in Clarke County.

Now I'm not a genius when it comes to power plants, and I haven't made a study of this issue. But I do know that when you mine and burn coal you get dirty air, polluted water and a raped landscape. In contrast, when you burn natural gas you do not rape the landscape and your air and water quality remains at the high cleanliness standard that it was prior to lighting a match. Hence it seems like a no brainer, that a clean, natural gas power plant located right here in Clarke County would be a much better idea that a coal plant up in Kemper County.

But the best reason for building a new clean gas burning power plant in Clarke Co. would be jobs. We need jobs in Clarke Co., so I propose that the power that be look into this matter and formulate plans for a new clean, natural gas power plant in Clarke Co., ousting plans for a pollution generator in Kemper Co.

A great deal of noise has been made about global warming and pollution of our air, lakes, streams, rivers and destruction of the environment. We have only one planet Earth, and when it is ruined, there is no replacement. God has made us guardians of our environment, and therefore we should make wise decisions. Building a clean, natural gas power plants in Clarke Co. would be a lot better idea than building a dirty coal burning power plant in Kemper Co.

Also I believe a clean natural gas power plant in Clarke Co. would reduce power bills over time, instead of increase them as would a coal burning power plant. If they build a dirty coal burning power plant up in Kemper Co., everyone in the area is going to have to foot the bill and pay the price, not only in terms of a polluted environment, but in much higher utility bills. And who is going to have to pay for cleaning up the damage to the environment caused by a dirty coal burning power plant -- our children!

We need jobs in Clarke Co. and we need them now. I propose that one way to stimulate the local economy is to build a natural gas burning power plant in Clarke Co. Then let's also look into other clean energy sources, like solar energy and wind energy, and see if we can participate in large projects that may be subsidized by the federal government as we move toward being independent from dependency upon foreign oil. Industrial development tied in with clean energy represents an enormous opportunity for bringing jobs to Clarke Co. as does industry related to high technology, the Internet and the global marketplace which that represents.

Clarke Co. is an ideal location for a new natural gas power plant. There are already natural gas pipelines running through Clarke Co. plus there is an abunance of water resources, both above ground and below ground in the aquifer. So why don't we push to get a natural gas power plant built right here in Clarke Co.

A Jan. 2000 report in The Mississippi Business Journal entitled "Power plant construction in Mississippi has major economic impact" stated that Mississippi has nine natural gas power plants either under construction or in the pipeline. According to the author, Becky Gillette, "the largest power plants under construction are two 500-megawatt gas turbine generating plants at Mississippi Power Company's Plant Daniel in Escatawpa, Jackson County. Two Enron peaking power plants began construction in 1999. They are Caledonia Power, LLC in Caledonia and New Albany Power, LLC in New Albany. LS Power in Batesville began construction of a power plant in 1998. Currently Congentrix has applied for permits to build power plants in Southaven and Caledonia, and Duke Power has applied to build plants in Jackson, McAdams and Southaven." So why don't we the people initiate action to get a new natual gas power plant built right here in Clarke Co.

Let's face it Clarke Co. and Mississippi in general is way down on the ladder when it comes to employment. In fact, at 12% unemployment Clarke Co. is at the bottom of the barrel. But I believe if we focused upon bringing clean energy and high technology industry to Clarke Co. we could pull ourselves up by our boot straps and come out of this recession looking pretty darn good. But an idea is nothing without action. Those who are our elected representatives need to take action, develop economic plans and strategies, and initiate programs to get the ball rolling. This might begin with the mayor of Quitman and Board of Aldermen adopting an economic development plan, one that includes bringing high tech jobs to Quitman. Also the Clarke County Commission needs to get in on the act and come up with a plan for a clean burning power plant and other high technology industries to be located in Clarke Co. In other words, we the people need to say we want a clean burning natural gas power plant here. Let's decide that ourselves and get it built; let's not let this be a decision the power companies make.

The Clarke Co. Commission recently approved a railroad authority; but railroads, though a good idea, are low tech. High tech is the Internet and we need to tie into Internet commerce simply because most of the money and business in the world is NOT in Clarke County. But the Internet is a way to empower people in Clarke Co. to get business from afar and generate income and profits from abroad. Hence the railroad we should be building in Clarke Co. and Quitman should include the high tech fiber optic, WiFi, Skype and other telecommunication networks piped into every home and business, certainly made free to schools, libraries and other public institutions.

Yet here we sit at the bottom of the barrel economically in Clarke Co. Mississippi with a 12% unemployment rate. This could change over night by building a new clean burning gas power plant in Clarke Co. It could change over night by building an industrial plant to manufacture solar energy panels. Or it could change over night by building an industrial park where other high tech businesses could setup factories taking advantage of the large unemployed labor force in our area. You see, high unemployment really means we have people who need jobs, so this is an incentive for high tech industry coming to Clarke Co. But to get them to come, we need to provide some incentives, such as a natural gas power plant which would lower everyone's utility bills over time, especially for industry, and an new industrial park area where factories might locate to take advantage of low cost power generated by such a natural gas power plant.

Are these pipe dreams? Yes they are. But change, progress, jobs, and a better future for our children begins with dreams. You have to start somewhere and dreams is a good place to start. For unless you can imagine the future, a better and a brighter future, you cannot begin to build that future. I think a clean burning natural gas power plant in Clarke Co. is a good dream, one worth pursuing -- am I the only one that has such a dream?
