Compulsive Hoarding of Money Syndrome - meme - gvan42

Gasoline Price Too High? Better Stop Driving... Why Pay a Fortune to Pollute the Air and Cause Climate Change When You Could Simply Leave The Damn Thing PARKED?

If You Sell Your Car You No Longer Have to Pay for Car Insurance. All those Crazy Ads on TV... They are Not Talking to ME! Liberty Mutual can F*CK OFF!

I Cut my Driving from About 50 Miles Per Day to 1 Mile per day by Simply NOT GOING PLACES... I DO Use LYFT to Visit the Doctor Twice a Year... 

Sure... People Say That Climate Change will only Kill Off Four Billion Humans and Then The World Will Heal BUT... Why Not Take Action Now and Prevent Disaster? All That Mad Rushing Around Traveling All Over the Place FOR AMUSEMENT is in My Past... THE Past... Yes... I Used to Drive All Over the USA in order to Dance at Grateful Dead Concerts... WELL... We Can't Do That Anymore...

and then I Read on FaceBorg:

A guy goes into a bar in Washington where there is a robot bartender.
The robot says, "What will you have?
The guy replies, "Whiskey."
The robot brings back his drink and asks, "What's your IQ?"
The guy say, "168."
The robot continues to talk about physics, space exploration, and medical technology.
After the guy leaves and the more he thinks about it, the more curious he gets, so he decides to go back.
The robot asks, "What's your drink?"
The guy answers, "Whiskey."
The robot returns with his drink and asks, "What's your IQ?"
The man replies, "100."
The robot talks about Nascar, Football and Hockey.
The man finishes his drink, leaves, but is so interested in his "experiment" that he decides to try again.
He enters the bar and, as usual, the robot asks him what he want to drink.
The man replies, "Whiskey."
The robot brings the drink and asks, "What's your IQ?"
The man answers, "50."
The robot leans in real close and says, “the election was rigged. Trump Really Won.”

Photo from Space of the Bakken Oil Field... Burning Natural Gas at Oil Rigs in North Dakota is visible from space at night. Fracking... It looks as bright as a city but it's burning waste fuel... Polluting the World, Causing Global Warming.

The Bakken Formation supports an unconventional oil and natural gas play in North Dakota and Canada. The main product is oil, but most wells also yield natural gas that has few local markets, storage options, or pipelines. Much of that natural gas is flared. This satellite image was compiled by NASA

 https://www.npr.org/sections/krulwich/2013/01/16/169511949/a-mysterious-patch-of-light-shows-up-in-the-north-dakota-dark

 What we have here is an immense and startlingly new oil and gas field — nighttime evidence of an oil boom created by a technology called fracking. 

 Those lights are rigs, hundreds of them, lit at night, or fiery flares of natural gas. 

 One hundred fifty oil companies, big ones, little ones, wildcatters, have flooded this region, drilling up to eight new wells every day on what is called the Bakken formation. Altogether, they are now producing 660,000 barrels a day — double the output two years ago — so that in no time at all, North Dakota is now the second-largest oil producing state in America. Only Texas produces more, and those lights are a sign that this region is now on fire ... to a disturbing degree. Literally.

American History: What Happened in 2019...

DC CLIMATE STRIKE – SHUT DOWN BUSINESS-AS-USUAL... Youth leaders from around the world have called for a climate strike and global week of action from September 20th-27th. They have been taking the lead so far, but now they are calling on all of us to take action. In Washington, DC we will be answering the call and building on the momentum of the youth climate strikes in a major way:

On September 23rd, 
We are going to Shut Down Washington, DC.

We will block key infrastructure to stop business-as-usual, bringing the whole city to a gridlocked standstill. Parents, workers, college students, and everyone who is concerned about the climate crisis will skip work and school and put off their other responsibilities to take action on the climate crisis.

What are the climate strikes—and how did they get started? In August 2018, then-15-year-old Greta Thunberg began skipping school every day to protest in front of Sweden’s parliament in the weeks before the Swedish general election. She demanded climate legislation that would bring Sweden in line with the Paris Agreement (keeping global temperatures to 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels). After the election, Thunberg continued to skip school to strike on Fridays, inspiring thousands of young people worldwide to follow suit. Since Thunberg’s Friday strikes, youth around the world have protested in front of their local legislatures on Fridays in solidarity, beginning the #FridaysForFuture movement. In a culmination of all their efforts, strikers from 117 countries are calling for massive global climate action, by everyone, on September 20th and again on September 27th—a full week of concentrated action that the strikers are calling the #WeekForFuture movement. https://www.chatelaine.com/living/global-climate-strike-canada-2019/ Greta Thunberg To U.S.: 'You Have A Moral Responsibility' On Climate Change. She says her message for President Trump is the same thing she tells other politicians: Listen to science, and take responsibility. https://www.npr.org/2019/09/13/760538254/greta-thunberg-to-u-s-you-have-a-moral-responsibility-on-climate-change Tumblr, Kickstarter, WordPress, and BitTorrent are among the companies to support the Global Climate Strike by donating ad space or shutting down their websites The youth-led global climate strike scheduled for next Friday has already secured a number of corporate backers, and now the campaign is going online. A number of the world's most popular and influential websites announced this week that they will help to promote the strike, pledging to spread the word on social media, put banners on their websites to signal support for the strikes, and in some cases shut down their operations. https://www.businessgreen.com/bg/news/3081528/websites-join-climate-strike Why People Worldwide Will Be Walking Off The Job Later This Month.

Elizabeth Warren has some GREAT Ideas: Tax the Rich... Prison for Corporate Executives that Break The Law... Legalize Voting for ALL... End Corporate Welfare for Oil, Gas and Coal AND DEFENSE Companies...

Elizabeth Warren Two Cent Wealth Tax -
It Just Makes Sense - Fund America

Instead of having two systems of Justice, One for the Rich and a Different One for the REST of US... Why not have Equality? The Executives at Wells Fargo might have NOT DONE the CRIME if they knew that Prison Awaited them... What about the Makers of Oxycontin? They caused thousands of deaths... What about Cigarettes? Millions Died... 
EW MEME - Elizabeth Warren for President 2020 - Word Art

 FYI: Before she was elected to the Senate, Warren convinced congressional Democrats and President Obama to create the agency now known as the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau.

 Warren supports the Buffett Rule, which would restore the Clinton tax rates on the top income bracket. She believes that the added revenues should be used to make college more affordable and help students pay off their student loans.

 As part of her presidential campaign, Warren proposed an annual wealth tax ("ultra-millionaire tax") in January 2019. The proposal would levy a 2% annual tax on household net worth above $50M, and a 3% annual tax on net worth above $1bn. 

 Warren supports investing in renewable energy rather than "handing out massive tax breaks to [nonrenewable] energy companies that are among the most profitable corporations in the world." She says that "as long as we subsidize dirty sources like oil, gas, and coal, we threaten the air we breathe and the water we drink."

 Warren claims to oppose continuing the war in Afghanistan and support withdrawing U.S. troops as quickly as possible...

My Autobiography: Growing Up in Los Gatos, California in the 1960s by Gregory Vanderlaan - and Living in San Jose, Washington DC, Chico, Eureka and Orangevale, CA.

I Was Born in 1954. We lived Near the San Jose Airport until they Started Landing Jet Airplanes and We had to move... We went to Los Gatos in 1960. I lived there until graduation from Los Gatos High School in 1972... an Ideal Childhood... FYI: Los Gatos is about 50 miles South of San Francisco on the edge of the mountains between San Jose and Santa Cruz.

I Went to West Valley Jr. College, learned electronics drafting and got a job at System Industries in Santa Clara... I feel blessed that not only did I grow up in a great location but I also grew up at a great time. I missed the Vietnam War by ONE Year and Silicon Valley Was Hiring Like Crazy When I Needed a Job.
