water stoves
The town council in Sligo, Pa meets in an old brick(former school) building with a old time coal furnace for heat. Black smoke pouring out of the chimney while they decide that town residents can no longer use outdoor wood burning stoves to heat their homes. I think it is terribly hypocritical. Also, I think we need to start over from 1776 and make some changes.
About the town council meeting place;
If you see lots of black smoke that indicates they are using
Soft Bituminous coal to heat the building.
You should contact the Pennsylvania DEP and tell them they
are using soft coal to heat their building with no pollution controls.
Anthracite burns with almost no smoke and the smoke that does
occur is white when more coal is added to the the stove or boiler.
This smoke dissappears quickly when the boiler is closed and the
bottom draft is allowed to admit combustion air under the coal grates.
About starting over from 1776 it is not required as:
In the United States of America:
We have what is referred to as a "Constitutional Democracy" which is the founders of this
fledgling nation "wanted" to have to allow proper representation of the citizens of
the new nation rather than a "Constitutional Monarchy".
If we managed to eliminate the Political Action Committee's, The lobbyists,
The corporate special interest groups bent on persuing thier own agenda
by greasing the wheels of government to get what benefits them and to Hell
with the common man who is nothing to them, the Illegal aliens who come here
flaunting their collective existance anywhere and every where to get cash money jobs,
the underground economy which denies the states and federal treasuries of income
which will reduce the tax burden on the ordinary citizen, eliminated pork projects
completely like the many projects named after senators and congressman to "Help"
thier district HAHAHHAHA.
While we are at it we can eliminate the automobile and reinstate long distance train travel
and the inter-urban trolley and eliminate the need to consume almost 200 billion barrels
of refined crude oil every year for the federla highway system and ocean going ships that
use Sulzer diesel engines and hundreds of tons of diesel fuel for each voyage which pollutes
the air we breath with unpurified diesel exhaust.
More people can be put to work rebuilding the railroad system and adding jobs as the costs of maintaining
the federal and state highway systems are at the breaking point because of declining tax revenues.
The system is broken plain and simple and if we instituted a 60 day per year legislative session to
manage these issues and solve the problems without catering to "special interest groups" the country
would be better off as a whole.
As far as the Illegal alien problem is concerned we could have followed Indonesia's example and rounded up
every illegal alien and thier family members and simply deported them en mass and told them to apply for legal emmigration we would have riots in the streets.
The old saying goes like this: You have to treat and cure all the diseases to cure the patient.
We have become too politically correct to correct the problems at the end of our collective noses in the trough and the innocent victim is the low income wage earner, the retiree, the indigent man who is sleeping in a shelter, the family who nolonger has abread winner to support them who is losing thier home because of a foreclosure and the many excellent programs that are offered by the national, state and local governments that are suffering from low tax revenues because of White Flight and the dreaded cuts to our military which are inevitable BUT these cuts would not be necessary if the proper accounting was managed and expenses overseen more prudently than in years past
I would much prefer a Constitutional Democracy than be dealt with by and live under
dictators like Robert Mugabi and many others that have fallen recently.
