Had a farmers daughter complaining about the "new", Obama laws to keep dust and erosion down

She was in her early 20,s and working at my bank and this happened several months ago.

I told her to go home and Google "The Dust Bowl", to see how long these laws have been in effect and why they were enacted decades ago.

I couldn't believe someone could be that ignorant fresh out of High School and with a father who was a farmer and is well aware of The Dust Bowl.

Amazing isn't it?

Obviously these Obama haters like this farmer are teaching their children to be idiots. Guess they think we are all as stupid as they are.

Unbelievable.

1. Suggest she watch the PBS special on the dust bowl

the timing couldn't be better.

And the thought occurred to me that the next time people more fixated on extracting resources than caring for the land destroy that area, instead of helping them stay on their farms, the government should buy *all* of them out, repair the soil *again* and then hold onto the land and manage it organically.

Unfortunately when it happens again, it will be the big corporations instead of individual farmers. Nationalize them?

Your president and his agencies are driving family farms out of business and letting corporations take them over.

2. are you sure that there are no new regs though?

we have a lot of new regs here in CA re keeping dust down. I was under the impression that Obama had toughened air quality standards. (a good thing)

for pertinent Fed laws see--EPA fugitive dust emissions
CARB (The California Air Resources Board) also added a bunch of regs on the state level under Arnold.

How do you like your pizza?

5. No, not surprised.

I was an aide in a public elementary school last year. I heard the teacher tell the class that Hoovervilles were named by the people living in them to honor Herbert Hoover for all his help to them.

I bet they voted for Obama.

8. So with a Republican House, Obama passed these laws all by himself

Obama don't need no stinkin' congress to ruin this country.

9. if you are referring to the new regulations, then the EPA originated them. n/t

Pizza, coming up.

10. Then there's a reason for them. They don't make them up on a whim.

Yes there is .  Obama's thugs at federal agencies make regulations to cripple the economy.

Anymore, new regs are issued only to justify the job and existence of the originator.
Most have noyhing to do with helping.
In other words...a whim.

Obama's been the enemy of farmers since he rode into town.  Remember the EPA wanting to treat milk spills the same as oil spills?  The DOL wanting to criminalize kids working on the farm?  It took torches and pitchforks to get this stuff reined in, and nearly cost our idiot Dem Rep his job (he squeaked back in with 50.3%, ****er).  

Go back to bed, Don.  You bore me.  Paid your exhorbitant property taxes yet?  Nothing left for Christmas, is there.

Actually, my pal Don seemed to be laying low during the campaign, after the conventions.

His absence was noticeable; I'd feared he was no longer in this time and place.

The other day I heaved a sigh of relief when I saw him posting again.

The primitives need to have one of these magnetic boards found in state governmental offices, that list the employees, and there's a little round magnet for each one, that they move to the "in" or "out" column painted on the board.

I was really prepared for the worst, when it came to my pal Don.

I do remember seeing a show on the guide for some channel this week about the "Dust Bowl" so you're probably right.

The primitives have a long habit of that, creating "encounters" that involve in some manner or form some show that's recently been on television or some news story on Drudge.

And yes, my pal Don, who I've watched for years, has done that.

How common place, a DUmbass thinking that it is smart.

Just another in a long ling of examples of some city slicker setting in his ivory tower dictating to the caretaker of lands, the feeder of nations , the ones dependent on good care of land so as it continues to provide one a living as to what is best.

She's a product of the liberal controlled public school system. No level of ignorance from a high school graduate should be surprising
