Do Something About Climate Change. Drive Cars Less. Stop Flying in Jet Airplanes.

People Driving to Work in Cars is the Main Cause of Climate Change. The Next Time You Change Jobs, SERIOUSLY Consider Commuting a Shorter Distance as the Main Factor of Which Job You Take. Remember: Commuting an Hour a Day is an Hour of YOUR LIFE That is Wasted... and Lost Forever... an Hour You COULD HAVE Used to Play with Your Children, take a NAP or Watch TV... Learn to play a Musical Instrument... Write that Novel... ANYTHING is Better than Sitting in Traffic! AND... You are NOT Getting Paid for that Wasted Time!

What IF... We Moved "The Office" from Downtown to Vacant Stores nin The Mall? In General, Shopping Malls are Near where People Live... and Downtown is a Nightmare Commute...

Flying in Jet Airplanes is an Insane Way to Spend your Vacation Time... We had a ZOOM Christmas Party... and Got to Socialize with the Family Without the Madness of Airports... We Had a ZOOM Wedding too! The Church has a Youtube Channel for Broadcasting the Sermons and They Let Weddings Use That...

The Men Who Raised Gasoline Prices: CEOs Darren Woods, Michael Wirth and Bernard Looney. Causing Astonishing Profits for ExxonMobil, Chevron and BP. Biden to Meet With Them Next Week. Hey Joe: Tell 'em to STOP PRICE GOUGING!

Headline: Biden administration invites oil CEOs to meeting next week on gas prices... (6/16/2022)

The Energy Department sent an invitation to oil industry executives Wednesday night to meet next week to discuss high gas prices, an official familiar with the matter tells CNN.

The official said the invitation went out to the same seven oil companies to which President Joe Biden wrote a letter on Tuesday: Marathon Petroleum, Valero Energy, ExxonMobil, Phillips 66, Chevron, BP and Shell.

Headline: House approves bill to combat gasoline ‘price gouging’ - May 19th, 2022But Republicans Killed the Bill so they Could Continue to Get Bribes from Oil Companies...

https://www.pbs.org/newshour/economy/house-approves-bill-to-combat-gasoline-price-gouging

A closely divided House approved legislation Thursday to crack down on alleged price gouging by oil companies and other energy producers as prices at the pump continue to soar.

A bill backed by House Democrats would give President Joe Biden authority to declare an energy emergency that would make it unlawful to increase gasoline and home energy fuel prices in an “excessive” or exploitative manner. The bill directs the Federal Trade Commission to punish companies that engage in price gouging.

“At a time when people across the country are feeling the pinch at the gas pump, Congress needs to be doing all it can to bring down costs for American families,″ said Rep. Kim Schrier, D-Wash., who co-sponsored the bill.

She called it “infuriating” that spikes in gas prices were “happening at the same time that gas and oil companies are making record profits and taking advantage of international crises to make a profit. This must stop.″

The measure was approved, 217-207. Republicans unanimously opposed the bill, along with four Democrats.

Remember: If the GOP Wins the House in 2022 they will Impeach Biden. Remember: Biden would not have to Actually Commit an Impeachable Offense...

He would only need to be ACCUSED by Republicriminals! A Majority VOTE!

and then He will Not be Convicted in the Senate. So They will Impeach Him again... and again... and again... Many Many Many Times before the 2024 election... and Biden Will Not Run in 2024... Exhausted by Endless Attacks and OLD AGE.

Maybe the GOP Will Only Impeach Biden Three Times... So He will Hold the Record of the Most times Impeached... after all they will need to Impeach Kamala Harris as well... and SCOTUS Jackson... That way the Speaker of the House Becomes President! and they OUTLAW Voting, Crown Trump King and Pass more Tax Cuts for the Rich Laws, Steal all the Social Security Money, Throw all Old People OFF Medicare, Outlaw Abortion and Birth Control, Rewrite all History Books so White People are always Wonderful and Right! Imprison all the Gays, Declare Jesus is the ONE TRUE GOD... and Send all the Non-White Immigrants Right Back Where they Came From!

MEDICARE OUGHT TO REFUSE TO PAY FOR ADUHELM. I object to paying an extra $21.60 per month (minimum) in Medicare premiums to cover the costs of the drug that Supposedly Treats Alzheimer's. It has drawn controversy for its price ($56,000 per year --- Now $28,000) and because the FDA approved it despite doubts about its effectiveness.

It has drawn controversy for its price ($56,000 per year) and because the FDA approved it despite doubts about its effectiveness.

The Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services played down the spike, pointing out that most beneficiaries also collect Social Security benefits and will see a cost-of-living adjustment of 5.9% in their 2022 monthly payments, the agency said in a statement.

HOWEVER... THEY FAIL TO CONSIDER THAT EVERYTHING ELSE IS MORE EXPENSIVE THIS YEAR ALSO... LIKE: FOOD, SHELTER and GAS...

~~~~~~ (~);-} ~~~~~~

and I DID Get a Response from a Citizen: JB Said:

I'm wondering if they followed the law by making half the increase a "contingency." They do not even know yet if that drug will be approved by Medicare.
3. My guess -- just a guess -- is that this 15% increase in the "normal" Part B monthly premium is political chicanery of the worst kind. They are giving us a big hit now so that next year during the 2022 midterm Congressional elections they can announce no increase so you can re-elect the incumbent political hacks.

and I Replied: I'm glad Someone read my Statement... I'm trying to get my rage writing read by someone who actually works in the government... One time I found an employee email list for people that work at the EPA but so far I Have not found any way to contact Medicare... or CMS.gov

An alternative to building a Border Wall between the USA and Mexico is to make the quality of life Better in Mexico and Central America... RETURN WHOLESALE COFFEE PRICES to what they were a Couple of Years Ago SO THEY CAN EARN A LIVING.

Then they wouldn't want to come here. Instead of paying 16 Billion Dollars on a Wall why not spend it on job creation, better education, free birth control and plumbing... Clean drinking water is important! That would make life better. A Wall won't improve anyone's life.

Fall in Coffee Prices Is Fueling Guatemalan Migration to the U.S.: Report...

http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/06/coffee-price-drop-fuels-guatemalan-migration-to-u-s-report.html

According to a new report from the Washington Post, a major fall in the price of coffee has cut out a huge income source for Guatemalan farmers, helping to fuel the spike in migration to the United States. Coffee prices have dropped about 60 percent since 2015, from $2.20 per pound in 2015 to a low this year of 86 cents.

Will Saudi Arabia BE ABLE To Buy Lockheed Missiles for their War In Yemen? Will they Continue to Bribe Trump? With Half Their Oil Refineries ON FIRE, Will Their Opinions About Anything Be Significant At All?

Remember: When the Price of Gasoline Goes UP, People Drive Less... Global Warming is CAUSED by People Driving Cars and Trucks and Vans and Lawnmowers and Motorcycles and Leaf Blowers and Tractors and Winnebagos... The Era of the Internal Combustion Engine is Rapidly Coming to a Close. How Can We Possibly Survive? Trucks Bringing Food To Grocery Stores is Essential... People Driving Cars to Work is Essential...

Low Coffee Prices CAUSE Farmers to Leave Central America and Walk to Texas... or Switch Crops to Cocaine... Yet, NO PRICE Discount to Consumers... Just The Rich Owners of Corporations Benefit...

The low prices have led to coffee growers abandoning their farms in Guatemala while Colombian farmers turned to coca, which is processed into cocaine.

The lowest international coffee prices in a decade are leading many despairing farmers in Central and South America to abandon their farms, fueling fears of an industry crisis. “The volatility is destroying livelihoods,” said John Steel, chief executive of Cafédirect, one of the UK’s first coffee roasters to offer producers Fair Trade pricing which counts Peruvian coffee co-operatives as among its main suppliers. Mr Steel added that farmers were joining migration caravans while elsewhere younger generations were opting out of coffee production in many countries. “If you’re a parent and making a living from coffee, seeing the way [low prices] are impacting the market, it’s not what you want for [your children],” he said.

The Town House Motel in Chico has raised their price to $1000 a week. It Was HALF that BEFORE THE FIRE in Paradise. All the other Motels are SOLD OUT.

https://www.yelp.com/biz/town-house-motel-chico

YELP REVIEWS SAY:

Shame on you for charging 1000 a week!! People have lost their homes! And you have the nerve to gouge them! Not to mention the pictures on Yelp show the motel as a disgusting place. The bed bugs and filth is disgusting. I feel so bad for the people that have no place else to go. I hope you get fined!!

You should be ashamed of yourself!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Price gouging fire victims at $1000 a week????
That is unacceptable!! Time to boycott this place!
Shame on you, scumbags!!!!!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Don't even think about staying here. They have violated the law by price gouging the Camp Fire victims, by raising the rates over 2 times as much!!! This is illegal, and if it were not, it is absolutely reprehensible!!!!

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

So I see that they doubled the price of the hotel rooms during a emergency crisis with the campfire and are now charging $1000 a week
That's out rages price during an emergency I hope the DA does something about it

and about a dozen more like these...

The Haven Inn of Chico is Sold out... No availability... I wanted to find out what the weekly rental price was... After Reading that the Town House Motel Doubled their Rates... The Rodeway Inn (Used to be the Budget) is also sold out. The Regency has no website. 

...and my Favorite The Club Chico Motel is Closed... at Esplanade and East Ave it was where I first lived in the Late 1990s... I almost died there after setting the mattress on fire with a cigarette... but the Manager woke me up in time... pulled the burning mattress out of the motel room, put out the fire, put a new mattress in the room and said to not worry about it... hey, a paying customer is valuable and mattresses are free from the dumpsters when the College Students leave every spring. I picked one up years later for the back of my Ford Windstar Van.
