I have no idea what emulate means!:yh_rotfl:yh_rotfl

Im disgusted with red tape and bargaining and lobbyists interests and hold outs and this for that, addendums, revisions, congress going on holiday with work left on the table but they manage to pull off a hush hush raise for themselves right before they go.
America was discussing alternative energy and dependence on foreign oil decades ago after the 70's oil embargo. If 4 bucks a gallon last year wasnt enough of a wake up call I dont know what is.
We can become a country that produces and manufactures things again. We can become truly independent and self reliant but that takes vision.
If you always do what you always did you always get what you always got.
We can get the hell out of the Middle East and theyre free to bludgeon themselves into oblivion. Our interests should be home grown right now.
We need some good old fashioned innovation and fresh thinking. We have damage control to contend with, infrastructure repairs, maintenance. We need to rally and teach by example. I dont think hes a God or an icon Rick, Ive questioned a couple of his moves but hes got some good people advising him on some awesome responsibilities.
Im thinking outside the box and ahead to a better future for our country. Visionaries know how to get things done. Hes cutting through the bullshit with a mega bullshit laser.
I like that.The federal gov't was set up to move slowly. It was also set up to handle far less than this power grabber (and the many before him) want it to do. He's cutting through the bullshit alright. But is he headed where we want to go?? Not me.
I swore to defend our Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic. It's clearer every day that the federal government is the most dangerous enemy we have.

I'm not sure that's the vision that's in place in Washington. I think it's all about reliance, not self-reliance. Reliance on the federal government, with decisions made by for & with the same fat cats that profited off the first New Deal. It's getting to the point that we're being fed, watered and cared for like pets ... or sheep ... and nobody seems to notice because they're more worried about getting free hi def. self-reliance is the one and most important thing we're losing.
There's nothing I can do (or at least nothing I'm willing to do) beyond what I'm already doing. I just truly hate being in a "I told you so" position.
