They are good at mucking up the environment but they don't know how to clean up their mess. Over a million fracking wells?

Why do we learn of this after this fact?

If corporations are people, time to put a few corporations in jail...

Minnesota Department Of Commerce Brushes Off Big New Solar Project, Prefers Natural Gas
http://thinkprogress.org/climate/2013/12/13/3064041/minnesota-solar-natural-gas/

Minnesota could have had a 100 MW solar project!

Minnesota prefers earthquakes and filthy dirty toxic drinking water due to limited gas resources over clean unlimited solar energy...

Here in Maine we have a "republican" governor who thinks it is okay to let these big polluting energy companies to come in and start fracking thousands of wells in the State.

I don't know if the Maine governor is aware that at the pacific ocean these same energy companies have brought the human race to its knees and to the brink of extinction.

WE HAVE MILLION DEAD STARFISH, A MILLION DEAD SQUID AND A MILLION DEAD BIRDS now...

Thanks to the proliferation of nuclear power caused by "THE REPUBLIC".

Why do I say the republic? I don't remember the American people being asked if they wanted a million fracking wells drilled... Most average Americans are kept in the dark of where Nuclear power plants are located. Yet to date that is where the number stands.. A MILLION FRACKING WELLS! While the democratic body has been mesmerized by "Breaking Bad' these scoundrels and big money polluters have been destroying an earth that took 4.5 BILLION YEARS to form! While they deny evolution and the earth's age to justify their dirty deeds...

Why do we have a republic? Well in my opinion the founding fathers used the idea of a republic to frame our constitution because they felt the people could become mobs and use their democracy to make the wrong decisions about how to govern the country.

Yet now we have a senseless mob of republicans terrorizing our environment destroying everything in sight, all for profit.

I would assume the founding fathers were cautious of making this country a democracy due to what happened in Europe.

During Martin Luther's day the people took to the streets and sacked the Catholic churches all under the guise of their new found freedom they acquired in Protestantism.

Then we have the beheading of the French royal ruling body who were out of touch with the middle and lower class citizens of France.

We also in this country had indigenous people who could one day populate to the extent to democratically out vote the WHITE CHRISTIAN upper houses.

So in essence our republic is a form of apartheid...

Just as in Africa how the ruling body turned the average indigenous citizens into slaves and forced them to destroy the pristine African landscape with their mining for diamonds. We have this same thing happening here with the ruling body who have fracked OVER A MILLION FRACKING WELLS!!!

So it is not the poor and disadvantaged protesters that have assembled into a mob and are rampaging the country side with terror it is THE REPUBLIC that has gone ape **** wild!

PROFIT AT ALL COSTS even to the degree of shutting down our government so we cannot even protect our national parks...

The governor in Maine has leased/sold our water aquifers to Nestle for pennies on the bottle (for personal gain). And then our governor wonders where we are going to get the money to pay our public medical expenses while he dissed the ACA. Tax these polluters? No, he would prefer taxing the middle class, decimate public education and paying his cronies a million dollars, without even a bid, to investigate welfare recipients.

I have lived in Maine for nearly 50 years and have never ever felt an earth quake. Last year we had an earthquake in a densely populated urban city in Maine. Why? Well I guess the "republican" governor is selling our land mineral rights to contractors who are paying the state probably pennies on the cubic foot of gas extracted through fracking. I am sure he has received kickback on this "deal" too...

While we have one of the most dense forests in the country he has legalized fireworks in the state... So the state can burn down while the fireworks companies make a profit (more kick backs).

Most of the pristine Maine lakes where the entire country get their bottled water are interconnected by our rivers.

So were one lake to be poisoned with these MILLIONS OF GALLONS OF TOXINS pumped in to the water table by these fracking companies, well, the rivers will carry the toxins to the other lakes also.

It seem the mob of angry beheading terrorizing citizens are the republic not the democracy. While the peaceful occupy protesters were physically removed from the city park.

This native American land is being destroyed by the republic and the democracy seems powerless to stop it.

Now we have running an independent governor who has garnered more favor-ability in the polls. He may actually unseat our current republican Governor.

Will this new Governor even have the power to kick out the frackers and fireworks or will these polluters squat due to grandfathered signed contracts with the state?

The media has kept the public in the dark we are only after the fact hearing about the MILLION FRACKING WELLS already drilled in the US...

We are seeing occupy protests over the oligarchy quelled by pepper spray.

It is time the democracy get informed and demand that the republic tow the line.

It is time to kick out these dirty energy sources and go all out with solar and wind before we do irreparable damage to an earth and ecosystem that took 4.5 BILLION YEARS to form!!!

NO! Not an energy policy of ALL OF THE ABOVE! THIS IS WRONG THINKING!

It is better to be dependent on some foreign sources till we can go clean with our energy or what good is to have energy independence if in the process we destroy our homeland to the point of no return... Meanwhile we have Greenpeace activists in Russian jail because the Russian oligarchy thinks drilling in the arctic is a good idea too...

The republic has become our number 1 enemy... Worse than Al Qaeda!!!

The IAEA is STILL pushing nuclear energy with a million dead starfish, a million dead squid and a million dead birds on their hands!!!

Will it take a million dead humans OR MORE to end this vicious mob of a republic?

I also have a question...

Now that we know that fracking causes earthquakes. We also know they have been fracking long before public awareness with over a million wells already drilled... . Just like we were eating pink slime long before the public became aware of it...

Were US corporations "fracking" in Haiti? Were they responsible for the earthquake killing more than 200,000 people and the devastation of an entire country's economy?

Is Haiti a microcosm of the future of the US?

Was it the fracking corporations that paid for the damage done by the earthquake or the middle class of this country via the Red Cross?

Dimes to dollars the fracking companies did not pay a single cent for Haiti relief...

U.S. SAILORS REPORT CANCERS AFTER FUKUSHIMA RESCUE MISSION

I think these soldiers should be suing the IAEA instead of Tepco.

The IAEA has been proliferating nuclear power all over the world as if there are no dangers whatsoever and the IAEA has been completely lax at inspecting these plants and many others for safety due to "possible" natural disasters.

Tepco has its hands full as it is trying to divert a much more serious possibility of even further disaster and lawyers are now going to try and kick the stool out from under this company? This is insane...!!!

This terrible energy source has come from derelict US companies and been purposefully spread throughout the world so these US companies ultimately are responsible and should pay for the flagrant proliferation of this clearly unsafe nuclear technology and its predictable outcome.

I am not against these sailors being compensated in the least bit but I think the IAEA is the one they should be suing...

They should sue the IAEA out of existence!
