Dear Editor,
The bigger issue concerning Governor Cuomo’s ban on fracking is the assault on the Constitutional rights of citizens. Few understand what really just happened with this decision and do not know the truth about fracking because the media and Progressives control the narrative. Only the well informed have seen the actual evidence and almost no one has seen the sworn testimony from the head of the EPA admitting under oath that there is no evidence that fracking causing the pollution to an aquifer, anywhere.
What just happened is about control, not about safety. It will not be long before Progressives use the same propaganda they used to convince voters that fracking will destroy the environment to “Nationalize the Energy Industry” so that all the resources belong to the state.
The elite who control the energy industry will be the ONLY people who benefit from the fracking that they WILL do. If the government is not stopped we will become nothing more than surfs that serve those who govern. Politicians and the useful idiots who blindly allow them to continue gaining power and control are stealing our children’s futures.
To those who are behind outlawing fracking for natural gas and oil and those who oppose the use of all fossil fuels, if you wish to show you are not a hypocrite or a “Useful Idiot” for the Progressive agenda, then stop driving, sell your vehicles, sell everything you have that is made with the use of petroleum products (everything made with plastics, including computers and cell phones), have your electricity cut off (most of it is produced by coal or natural gas), and stop cooking and heating with fuel oil, LP and natural gas.
Start using nothing but the renewable resources that do not exist in quantities that are affordable. Demand that we stop producing, importing and exporting oil and gas immediately and refuse to support any industry that uses any of the products made or shipped with petroleum or natural gas, including the food you eat and all the entertainment you enjoy that uses our current forms of energy to produce. Do all of this and I will respect you as a person of principle and character, otherwise please remain silent on the issues concerning energy use and production, and save your reputation.
Sincerely,
Rev. Robert Seymour
Newark Valley, N.Y
