Of course he has...they've all been bought. Like anything the government touches, and tries to defend these days just stinks...corruption and greed and a complete disregard for what the populace are trying to scream in their ears. He sums it up right here with the mindset...
"We can’t ignore what (the environmentalists) say but at the same time we have to proceed with development and growth because on the one hand we have to use the assets given to us by God to cause for the economic growth and development of our people.”
We simply cannot afford it. We are already in debt up to our eyeballs...VAT or some other form of tax is needed to strictly pay down debt...nhi is NOT cheap, heath insurance is extremely expensive. Let's be sure that any and all discussions about tax reform are weighted with the concept you all are wanting to spend a fortune in funding NHI...don't think that has even been tabled as a factor in any VAT discussion to date. So what are we going to do...roll out VAT, then got after NHI and realize, oh hey, we need to bump up VAT to cover NHI now...bring it all out up front NOW...let's not bicker about the funds needed to do it after the fact and hit us with MORE taxes...roll out vat April 2015, cripple the economy, then roll out NHI in 2016 and have to boost VAT to pay for it, further crippling the economy...NO NO NO!!
No man...that was just a bit of causing harm...actually, they were covering themselves up with car tires to keep warm, not realizing that a random super focused beam of light would cause the tires to spontaneously combust...all very innocent really.
Maybe LBT is the wrong person to use in this scenario...anyone in general capable of hitting these people, PLP, FNM or DNA over the head with an idiot stick when they talk stupidness.
It's not just the Tribune...mind you they are definitely more biased...the other major tabloid which is typically more neutral or leaning 'Yella' has been called out for being overly critical.
Trucks first...then we need to look at barring the unsafe drivers!! Some of those guys are a pure menace. Not nearly as bad as the Jitney drivers, but still, you are racing around on narrow roads in a rig sometimes 50-60 feet long and weighing 30-40 tons roughly? What's the average 40' container...22T or thereabouts maxed out, plus the tractor head? Mad props go out to the safe and responsible big rig drivers.
