22. You are right about the knowledge curve, here.
We definitely are 6-9 months ahead of the general public on understanding the underlining motivations of this administration.

The American people need to put historical context to how our national security and energy policies have involved today into a single entity. Poppy gave us "Morning in America" by getting in bed with the Saudi's to bust OPEC's leverage....lining his pocket and the pocket of the Republican Roilists at the same time. 25 years later, Dimson is bringing us "Evening in America". But still the pockets of the wealthy Republicans are benefitting. Far worse, though, is what they have done to the budget. Taking us from a $300BB surplus to a $500BB deficit in 3 years. What that will effectively do is take away any US options to reinvent our energy policy and revolutionize our infrastructure to address a post-Peak Oil world.

For that, these reasonous bastards should be hung.
