The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

Shocked?  I thought he was supposed to keep up with economics.  This has been coming for a long time, and even I, a simple old geezer, could see it coming. :tongue2:

Yeah, this was highly predictable for anyone taking a realistic view of the whole energy situation there and not living on green fairy tales.

New York should take a bow, too, for prohibiting pipelines. They have the whole of New England hostage.

Seventeen Techniques for Truth Suppression

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.
