And Coal Miners, and I've been asking the question of why fire ours and 
buy Russian oil or sell coal to china while banning it here, and why 
limit it for Global Warming when more CO2 will mean more Trees and 
Vegetation and in turn a larger carbon cycle from CO2 to plants to 
Oxygen and Carbon structure to food to human available carbon to human 
available Oxygen, all of which we need since there are now 8 Billion 
people on the planet.... we don't need to kill 7 Billion people we need 
to increase the CO2 to increase the rest of the CO2/Oxygen cycle.


Because without Carbon we can't make carbon copies of ourselves and what 
happens when we can't make more babies...  we can always choose to make 
fewer but if the CO2/Carbon has been locked away then that could limit a 
woman's ability to create a human life and doesn't that violate a 
woman's RIGHT to do what NATURE or God designated women have as a 
Biological instinct...

Americans need Jobs and oil, and Americans have the oil as a Natural 
resource...  why go to a MARXIST VENEZUELAN Authoritarian dictator for 
it? Why sell our NATIONAL SECURITY RESERVES to lower prices for the 
months leading up to the election? And then go to A Marxist Dictator who 
uses the political power that comes from the barrel of a gun to force 
his people to submit to his destruction of their NATION that was a 
pretty nice place before the Marxists took control.
