And Rightly So!

According the Energy Information Administration as of January 2007 there was more than 1.3 trillion barrels of proved crude oil on earth. Even if this were all the oil on the planet there would be no immediate danger of shortages, because at the current rate of consumption – roughly 85 million barrels a day – this supply would last for more than 40 years.

But the 1.3 trillion in these so-called proved reserves refers only to a tiny fraction of earth’s oil, designating only that portion which can be extracted under current ‘economic and operating conditions.’ As it happens, this figure grows with each decade and usually dramatically so.

So is this why we’re seeing the price of gas go up, Up, and UP??

“In a lot of cities, you cannot put all the garbage outside. And you have to get a sticker or you get a ticket,” said Lucy Pineda, a 35-year-old Revere resident who moved to the United States 24 years ago from El Salvador.

Pineda is the director of LUMA, Latinos United in Massachusetts, an Everett-based nonprofit. She said that immigrants who do not understand local trash rules or have limited English skills will go to a city hall to find out why they received a trash ticket, and find there is no literature or employee who can speak their language to explain it.

No lit? MAKE THEM LEARN TO SPEAK AND READ ENGLISH you fucking morOns.

Hispanics are the nation’s largest minority group, consisting of 47 million people or 15 percent of the American population. The electoral clout of Hispanics is diminished by the fact that 44 percent are not citizens and are ineligible to vote. Also, Hispanics are not universally opposed to securing the border. Yet an overwhelming majority strongly disapprove of immigration enforcement procedures such as workplace raids, police who actively identify illegal immigrants and verification of immigration status prior to providing a driver’s license.

Ship ‘em all home. They need to do it the right way; the legal way.
