Look into 3rd-way Socialism. Crony Capitalism is how it progresses.

That's always going to be the divide. And some things desired by government, be it the state, the fed, or the res, are not going to be popular to the locals. Mayberry doesn't like it when a freeway comes through, any more than the res likes it when a pipeline goes through. And 9 times out of...

No I am not. I am complaining about the rank hypocrisy of it all. Freeways go in all the time, as do pipelines, and railroads, and canals, and so on. No hue and cry, no bleeding hearts... The only thing that makes this any different is the scale. This is nothing new, and it is what eminent...

It doesn't matter what they want. Just like a freeway going through, or a drainage canal. It is going to happen. They know that. This is politics and staging to increase their end of it.

What I know is that it takes fat-cat developers to purchase land to open a subdivision. I know that developer goes through all the legal hoops, improves that land with roads and utilities in order to sell parcels to the general contractors, who then employ many subcontractors to build their...

If Canada raises the prices, then the commodity of buying their oil ceases to be. And as such, they would shoot themselves in their own foot. Having the option, and weaning ourselves away from Middle East oil cartels can only be a good thing. And again, the cost of trucking and it's limits on...

Apparently, you are incapable of understanding the analogy which was my reply. Good day indeed.

I can heartily agree with your observation, with the exception of your conflating Conservatism with Republicans - Something often done, to the point of being ubiquitous... But in reality, Conservatives have only ever come from the Goldwater/Reagan wing of the Republican party. These Neocons come...

You might not have noticed, but fat cats getting rich is what gives people jobs. It's gonna have to be them spending their money that pulls this country out of the ditch, and puts money in the little guy's pockets.

Actually Conservatives ARE federalists which means they want state sovereignty and a small federal government. The word you want is 'statists', which, oddly enough, means power residing in an over burgeoning federal government... Liberals are statists. As to your question: Them ain't Conservatives.

Again, not a fact, and incidental anyway as all reserves are not even discovered yet. We don't even know how much we have, though it is sure to be a whole lot more. Baloney. I was there. They taught global cooling to me in science class. After hearing 'we're all gonna die' for forty years...

Who cares if a freeway has got to go across your land? Betcha money it's going there whether you like it or not. That's my claim.

No it's not. It is a federal reserve, still subject to federal laws, and some state laws.

Great! some other dude on the internet has spoken! No, it isn't a fact. Peak oil was supposed to happen in the eighties, man (just like global cooling, which by the nineties was global warming, which then became climate change... all of which are measured in tiny fractions of degrees.). First...

'climate change is nonsense. riiight, the ol peak oil argument... More baloney. Like I said, best go live in a mud hut, otherwise the hypocrisy is palpable.

There is nothing cheaper than oil. Of course we should tap it. And it doesn't 'damage the country' any more than logging does, or mining does, or trapping does, or farming does, or ranching does... We make our money that way. That's our jobs. And unless you're walking everywhwere, living in a...

It is commerce crossing their land. there will be a long term lease and royalties. watch and see.

I don't buy it.

Yes, that's what they are being designed for... Whether they get built or not is another thing.

If it's going through their land, it is going through their land... Just like a freeway, or a canal, or any other big infrastructure project. That;s what eminent domain is for. Being sovereign, unlike you or me, the tribe will get royalties.
