BULLSHIT, Obamma never blocked anything, if your going to make a false accusation prove it... I just did with Frumphead sleeze ball

Arrr, you're right that was polite...off with his head

This is such a lie yet you keep repeating it, I know you'll never get it but at least get over it already.

Thanks Bob, I am sooo angry right now with those sites being closed, he's a sneaky slimeball, hiding, hiding all the time, now he's hiding where the money...OUR money is really being spent, nothing but deceptions for this cow dung sewer rat.

As long as Trump is in office, everything is corrupt, which includes the CBO, the House, the Senate, especially the White House, they all will lie and cheat for him including any financial reports. I am so disgusted I went to two government sites and both have been dismantled under Trumps administration, one being from within the Federal Census Bureau, which was the Federal Statistics Program, the Consolidated Federal Funds Report(CFFR)website and the on-line query system, for questions. Trump blows...Not to mention him gagging the EPA with any new research findings, he's scum.

Hers a little common sense though...aside from the BS reports, we do not out surpass entire countries in military expense, including all of it, from disabilities to pensions to our arsenal...while saying it's expense is below the cost of our welfare. I'm done here.

Just so you know this is not an official government site, it is simply titled US Government Spending, I'll check it out further... but fyi, Health and Human Services ($69.5 billion) is less than one-tenth of total military spending.

Sweet

You're not delusional your insane. are you kidding? You are completely entrenched in misleading information. We spend more in our Military than other combined countries
Our military spending is a total of 62% when Veteran benefits are included.

Man~ they should call this site Texan Opp, sure are a lot of you guys on here.

Ok but then I'm not sharing

It's amazing what positive things we can do when we put our minds and backs into it. The good news IMO is that it's taken us to this point to begin on the right track and that is working with the earth and not against it. Yes, some bumps are to be expected but it's the long run that matters and what we leave for future generations. Earth is the jewel of our universe.

Wind and Solar Energy Are Dead Ends
By Spencer P. Morrison
Renewable energy is the way of the future, we are told.  It is inevitable.  Some renewable energy advocates boldly claim that the world could be powered by renewable energy as early as 2030 – with enough government subsidies, that is.  And of course, the mainstream media play their part, hyping up the virtues of solar and wind energy as the solution to climate change.
In one regard, they are quite right: in terms of generational capacity, wind and solar have grown by leaps and bounds in the last three decades (wind by 24.3% per year since 1990, solar by 46.2% per year since 1990).  However, there are two questions worth asking: (i) are renewable energies making a difference, and (ii) are they sustainable?

To answer the first question: No, wind and solar energy have not made a dent in global energy consumption, despite their rapid growth.  In fact, after thirty years of beefy government subsidies, wind power still meets just 0.46% of earth's total energy demands, according to data from the International Energy Agency (IEA).  The data include not only electrical energy, but also energy consumed via liquid fuels for transportation, heating, cooking, etc.  Solar generates even less energy.  Even combined, the figures are minuscule: wind and solar energy together contribute less than 1% of Earth's energy output.
Bottom line:



Yours is a rather long cut and pastes to address every issue that is presented, so I'' start here with your both No's.
I disagree, as places(countries), businesses and homes are proving that they are very sustainable but not necessarily under one means but rather with a multiple of combined ways. Which is still fine and acceptable

Sweden ranks first in the EU in consumption of organic foods, leads the way in recycling drinks cans and bottles, and gets the highest share of its energy from renewable sources. What’s more, Swedish fashion retailer H&M is a world leader in using organic cotton and the Government has allocated SEK 400 million for research and development of environmental technology.

Malmö has already created two world-leading examples of sustainable building. Bo01 is a constructed district that unites modern architecture with ecological sustainability, while Ekostaden Augustenborg is one of the largest investments in Europe in the ecological conversion of an existing residential area. The municipality continues to launch new environmental districts. Hyllie will be developed into the Öresund region’s most climate-smart district. Its energy supply will consist of 100 per cent renewable or recovered energy by 2020.

Hammarby Sjöstad, Stockholm

Hammarby Sjöstad is Stockholm’s largest urban construction project. When completed in 2017, 26,000 people will be living here in 11,500 apartments. The district has been planned using an eco cycle approach and is intended to showcase ecological and environmentally sensitive construction and living.

Stockholm Royal Seaport

Following the success of Hammarby Sjöstad, Stockholm Royal Seaport is now being launched as the next environmental district in the capital and an environmental role model. Some 10,000 homes and 30,000 offices will be built by 2025. The district will be completely free of fossil fuels by 2030 and have a positive impact on the climate.

Human-heated buildings

In northern Europe the housing and service sectors account for more than 40 per cent of total energy consumption. One way to reduce consumption is to build low-energy residences, passive houses heated mainly by the energy already found there, such as the energy from people’s body heat, electrical appliances, lighting and sunlight. Passive houses have been built in a number of communities across Sweden, including Stockholm, Göteborg, Västerås and Helsingborg.

In the fall of 2011, the first Nordic Ecolabel multi-family residence was inaugurated in Stockholm. The building (with 36 flats) produces half the carbon dioxide emissions of a regular block of flats. Seven out of 10 Swedes want to live in an eco-labeled house and would consider paying more for it, according to a survey by construction firm Veidekke.

Symbiocity

SymbioCity serves as a trademark administered by the Swedish Trade Council. The organization focuses on finding potential synergies in urban functions and unlocking their efficiency and profitability.


If you go back to the link I posted with apple and actually read it, you may be surprised of the sustainable strides they're making now.

We've lived thousands a years before oil, in the span of time fossil fuels have only been around for roughly a hundred and fifty years or so, and in this relatively short time the use of fossil fuels has done an almost insurmountable amount of damage to the environment, it's now time to move on, to evolve to the usage of new greener energies with as little damage to the earth and the environment, that is the right thing to do, it's the responsible thing to do and we now DO have the technology, that's a good thing btw.

Thank God he's not the same height as Danny DeVito

On this I don't need any slanted media or fact checkers, I don't know about you but I remember perfectly to that point in time. Obama installed insurance standards, with that single action, it forced all the bad policies to float to the top, as in not meeting the lowest standards, which meant phony policies wee kicked out, people were paying for nothing, having insurance in title only. Obama couldn't have known that would happen, no one oversees the policies of all the insurance companies. Even the Insurance association per state only looks at claims made. So you're incorrect here, there was no lie, there was misinformation and he did speak making promises before he should have, yes that he was guilty of.
Hence Obama, as Trump, was caught unaware of the actual reality of the condition they were immersed in but did you give him the same consideration, from your earlier reply that would be a big...NO


It went back to your comment...tnwtk 2007 wrote:
No they weren't and aren't. Trump let too many stay. That is one of his mistakes. Trump underestimated the corruption he was to face.
my reply:
I see and did you give Obama the same consideration when he said you can keep your insurance?
