No Comments Upside Down Times Part II
Soweee ang part II na delay po…
Now, we turn to the Global Warming craze, Copenhagen summit, and the details behind it all in general. You have the politicians and select “scientists” who are declaring that we must act now or we are all going to die! Ah!! Government to the rescue!! Oh, let us ignore the minor details. Summarizing them nicely is my daughter:
” The temperatures are going down not up. It is getting colder not warmer.”
Yes, that is true of our area here. It is hard to tell in the Phils where it is always hot and humid because of the oceans and the equator. It also is true when you read the data taken from the accurate measuring devices. But shhh, don’t tell all the big wigs an 8-yr-old figured out they are lying. It is so nice of the so-called scientists to leave a detailed email trail of their fraud.
Lastly is a new initiative announced by the current President of the USA at a retail store called Home Depot. He declared his administration will launch a tax incentive program or something of the like to get people to winterize their homes. To quote this article:
” The president was at Home Depot to urge Congress to approve incentives for Americans to spend money improving their home energy savings.
Doing so, he said,
“is one of the fastest, easiest and cheapest things we can do to put American back to work while saving money and reducing harmful emissions.”"
I think he has never tended to the realities of home ownership. Landlords have no reason to improve their properties as the renters pay the bill. The renters have no reason to put money into a place that isn’t their own assuming the landlord would even let them. Responsible home owners already do this stuff as it is called a simple word – maintenance. But people can’t do any of this if their jobs are insecure or threatened or promises of higher bills are coming. The actual unemployment rate in the USA is about 17%. It is rather brutal here and getting worse. Oh, I forgot to mention, they pick and choose how to count who is unemployed and who isn’t. Fun isn’t it?
There is one last parting thing about this concept of helping to “put Americans back to work” that the President of the USA didn’t figure out but my 8-yr-old daughter did.
“You winterize your place BEFORE winter not DURING.”
She also pointed out it is hard to take care of the outside stuff when it is so cold and there is so much snow and ice on the ground. Not so surprisingly, our 8-yr-old, who has never built anything or done much maintenance on anything, happens to be in agreement with the directions on the back of the caulking packages. It is supposed to be applied on a warm day above 50 degrees and at least 5 degrees above the dew point. Zero degrees Fahrenheit does not qualify. Trying to navigate the snow banks and ice does not count as a good weather day.
When the media and the government can’t fool an 8-yr-old girl, don’t let them fool you. Good now means bad and bad now means good. Cooling means warming and anything else follows the rules of the opposite is closer to the truth.
Oh, one last minor detail needs to be included. My 8-yr-old daughter doesn’t need a teleprompter.LOL!
Happy New Year and Brrrr, I am tired of Wisconsin weather!
Live Well,
Anah
