What will you do if Bush wins?
| Fri, 08-20-2004 - 12:02pm |
I would like to know what you all will do if Bush wins? I don't know if I can handle another 4 years. Any ideas of how to reclaim our country and restore democracy and freedom? I'm worried that another 4 years will increase the authoritariansm and absolute power that Bush has come to claim and further trample on our constitution and individual liberties. I'm truly frightened.

As for Bush and his environmental policies...He has none. One example is who he picked for his Environmental Protection Agency director. EPA has cut funding for programs that monitor the health of rivers and estuaries in the US. Believe me, my lab's main purpose is to monitor the health of the Chesapeake Bay. We look at factors such as how much nitrogen (ie fertilizers) and phosphate (chicken poop) are found in the sediment. These compounds are important for the photosynthetic organisms (such as seaweed and algae) but too much can paralyze a river. It's very similar to a human eating his/her body weight every day. You need the food for survival but too much food can kill you as well.
Another example of Bush's policies may help most relate. Most people love dolphins. They are intelligent and very playful. They remind us of pets. Well Bush wanted to the loosen regulations for tuna fishermen and their nets. Fortunately Congress did not agree with this change.
It is not arrogant to believe that humans can (and do) a lot of damage to this world even if we are here for a very short time period. It is irresponsible to think the opposite, for we only have one planet to inhabit.
Take some time and re-read all of my posts to you with questions you have never answered. Frustrating isn't it?
Where do you stand with abortion? Just curious?
