Thank you for your very insightful post. I agree with those who feel the use of photo ID as a requirement to vote is wrong. Your comments have given me an additional view of why these requirements are unconstitutional and demeaning. Thanks!
One doesn't have to look too deeply to see the perversion of principles already infecting the body politic. Any member of congress who has the nerve to propose legislation from ALEC is simply a fraud. While he may reconcile this in his own mind it simply cannot be tolerated by other members of congress or the public in general. Members who do so in the future or have in the past should be impeached immediately. The same goes for any governor as well. It should go without saying that congress has no authority to allow unelected bodies any right to create or change law. It seems to be evident that the qualifications once required to be a member of congress has now fallen to such a low standard that personal fraud and delegation of duty have become commonplace within our democratic institutions in order to facilitate the corporate dictatorship of the American people. A truly sad commentary regardless of your social stature.
It appears to me that the attitude is "I think it is bad therefore anyone who doesn't agree with me must be on the take from the industry." This is pretty similar to people who feel they are doing God's work and if someone disgarees with them that person is doing Satan's work.
Also, it seems that some opponents of fracking are not taking that position because of any oparticular fears or consrns about public health but see this as an issue with which to beat the oil and gas industry over the head. Their goal may be that if they can restrict/ban fracking that will eliminate or greatly reduce available fossil fuels and alternative energy souces will be advanced. I'd like to know how many of the vocal opponents of fracking have an interest or are funded by wind turbine manufaturers or have stock in photovoltaic cell producing companies.
And people who can no longer drink the water from their wells, who can maybe even light it on fire, should just buzz off?
They don't need any windmill money to say, "Screw that!"
