<<'Ask not what your country can do for you, ask what you can do for yourself'>>

I think you own quote describes very well your approach to life and concern about the future of both our children, society and the planet.

"To pretend that windmills and solar panels and other such inefficient pipe dreams can substitute for carbon based energy is just so much nonsense and blather and politically motivated BS.."

"That we have to compromise and sacrifice for one another in order to get things done. That is why I am here, because Barack Obama is the only person in this who understands that. That before we can work on the problems, we have to fix our souls. Our souls are broken in this nation." Michelle Obama

"It only stands to reason that where there's sacrifice, there's someone collecting the sacrificial offerings. Where there's service, there is someone being served. The man who speaks to you of sacrifice is speaking of slaves and masters, and intends to be the master." Ayn Rand
