I think what you just described is one of the driving forces behind much of why America is the way she is today. The urbanization of America has taken people away from the land and the animals that live on it both wild and domesticated. We've replaced that relationship with political correctness, we've traded our Norman Rockwell world for metropolis. We have lost our small community take care of your neighbors to being dependent on a big brother fed gov.

I know any people who have not been introduced to hunting have no reference point to understand the value it has. In how it helps to keep alive mans relationship with the natural world, with the bonding that takes place from one generation to the next.

I have been a bow h****r my whole life, bagging that big buck was always secondary to spending the time to learn about the animals I was hunting and spending time in the woods.

Do we want to live in a Norman Rockwell type of world, where we careless about political correctness and income ine******y and more about family and community.

And if shooting something isn't your thing go fishing instead.

While Solar may one day be an important energy source, right now it just isn't. But the biggest problem is the government picking and choosing winners and losers, with taxpayer money. If left to the private sector solar just might be a good thing, the sorry way this company bled the tax payer is just plain wrong And you are right Solyndra was just the beggining there were at least 5 or 6 other solar companies that went bankrupt with the taxpayer picking up the tab, while Obama's cronies walked off with millions
