1. When seniors in the UK find it cheaper to pay a library fine so they can burn books to stay warm because they cannot afford electricity, you know you have over priced energy.
   Really wonder if Gaia is amused at how screwed up the greenies have implemented her dreams.

2. “It’s for the good of the planet.” Now where have I heard that before, oh yes, I remember. That is the phrase that communists of various sorts use to justify killing “enemies of the people”.
   What goes around, comes around.

3. Ah the good old days! Leftists at least pretending to help the “working class”. That wore thin (amazingly

   German experience, even in their own terms they are failing.
   I am a conservative in part because I wish well for my fellow Canadians, and prudent and limited government
   is the best (the only) way for that to be achieved. Sound government will promote industry, trade, and commerce,
   and these in turn will promote the general welfare (a strong financial sector is more dubious).
   The leftists promise all kinds of good things but they reliably deliver misery.

6. I suspect that Japan’s leadership has noticed what is happening in Germany as well as the domestic energy hardships in Japan with her functional Nukes off-line ever since Fukushima. So now they have reversed their decision and are looking at firing them back up. The Germans might want to follow suit.
   The anti-nuclear crowd of 40 years ago were the original “green” zealots that evolved into today’s watermelons. It’s the same anti-industrial revolution.
