DON WYNNE'S ESSAYS

Smokey the Bear is a Liar - June, 2010

For twenty years he said “People cause 9 out of 10 wild fires:

The opposite is true: Lightening causes 9 out of 10 wildfires.

We Americans no longer check facts. If it’s on TV, it must be true.

Climate gate hype has cost the U.S. millions of jobs and sent our factories overseas. Rich U.S. overseas investors-The Sierra Club which dislikes smoking factories- along with Washington D.C. foreign oil lobbyists have brought America to its knees.

U.S. budget coal made us rich, so they switched us to foreign oil on our electric plants.


Don Quixote and the Federal Windmills - June, 2010

Very expensive windmills in the ocean, and now on mountain tops, along with Hi-tech solar panels in the desert; will not put millions of people back to work.

The Fed. borrows money China money to give cash gifts to push businesses into technology that cannot compete against oil and coal manufactured products overseas.

Feeding 30% more coal into our electric plants would bring many cost-wise factories back to America.


The Fall of the American Empire - June, 2010

Future alternative U.S. energy is a nice thought but today America is almost broke.

We must use 30% more U.S. coal in our electric plants.

This will curb huge foreign oil debt, and bring back the middle class to produce products for the world again, and full employment with higher paid jobs means more tax dollars to the Fed.

Our government worries about unproved green science, while today we borrow from China, etc. to pay part of our Medicare and social security.

Let’s give our children the true American dream, instead of a long list of bills.


WILL YOU SUPPORT THE U.S. FINANCIAL RECOVERY PLAN - December, 2009

Citizens must ask Congress to pass one law:

“Where only fossil fuel is available to our electric plants, use only American fossil fuel; instead of foreign fossil fuel.”

The internet and library shows the 2008 payments of 400 billion dollars for foreign fossil fuel created 10 million foreign jobs.

The U.S. Congress can reverse this with one quick law and create a level playing field for labor and business.

Manufacturers can compete with overseas labor if our stable-priced, already available, American 300 year supply of electric energy is used now.


LOWER-COST COAL MADE AMERICA WEALTHY - March, 2009

U.S. massive coal reserves gave us unlimited electric energy to win two world wars, and pull us out of the first ‘Great World Depression’.

Lord John Brown -C.E.O. of British Petroleum in 2005- said all world oil will run out in 40 years.

All oil countries know this. Saudi Arabia, like many oil countries started desert solar, long time studies years ago.

Facts: Libraries and Internet show America to have a 300 year supply of coal.

U.S. coal reserves are gigantic compared to all other nations.

In all the world oil reserves, America’s coal reserves are many times greater.

Alternate energies all sound good, but economic and scientific sources say it’s at least twenty years away, to feed America’s demand for so much energy.

Most people are also not aware that alternate energies are expensive, and have to be subsidized by the federal government. Research is costly.

Gasohol: Wind: Solar, all took a big hit when $140 oil tumbled below $70 a barrel for oil.

Some gasohol companies went broke. T. Boone Pickens’s giant windmill program was halted, and put on hold. Banks also held back on solar loans, when foreign oil dropped below $50 a barrel.

That is why the Fed contributes billions of dollars as an incentive for alternate energy. 
Some neighbors told me they prayed that oil would stay at $45 a barrel, so they could drive more.

I told them that $45 foreign oil over the years broke America, and turned us into a debtor nation that owes so many trillion of dollars; only our grandchildren can pay it off.

We quit using our budget coal, and couldn’t compete in markets around the globe.

Foreign oil for our electric plants-closed our factories- and sent our employees home, but we still use 666 million barrels of world oil every month.

Only U.S. coal can compete to create ‘a level playing field’ against low-cost foreign labor.

Unstable up-and-down foreign oil prices drive U.S. businesses crazy with their volatility,

However, U.S. coal is always accessible, and stable-priced.

Present day, no high-cost alternate energy, or foreign oil will take us out of this ‘Second Great World Depression’.

America’s God-given riches were all imbedded underground.

Peasants, who came here, wrote back to relatives that America’s streets ‘were paved with gold’.

An unending amount of iron ore: coal: metals: and chemicals made us into the world’s showplace.

The politically correct, anti-God unproved greenhouse theories shamefully broke America.

Our ancestors would turnover in their graves, if they could see what we have done to this great country.
Although coal and oil come from ‘C’, the same carbon atom, we were manipulated in using foreign oil for electricity.

In nature, greenhouse gas has been coming and going for millions of years before man walked this earth.

Of the thousand volcanoes in the sea and the five hundred on land; I would advise against corking them up to curb CO2.

Historically, our lives earth has summer and winter times. We also have longer periods of natural cooling, and warming.

Brilliant scientists have many different ideas on this subject.

Thank God for climate change. There could be no life on a dead planet.

A quick return to prosperity and full employment is possible we could produce for competitive world markets again, if we switched back to our budget coal instead of using half-coal, and half-oil in our electric plants.

Forget the trillions of dollars we spent on foreign oil over the past years.

Let’s concentrate on the future. No federal bailout or tax money is needed. Entrepreneurs seeing us switch back to all coal will invest in thousands of new factories. A level playing field of our lower-cost electric against their lower-cost labor to compete in world trade.

In World War 2, we sent scientists into the desert to break the extremely complex uranium atom to win the war. We did this as a national priority. Surely, we can do the same, with the much simpler carbon atom; as we are using it in full capacity.

America uses 1.1 billion tons of coal per year in electric plants.

The other half is fueled by 666 million barrels of oil per month.


FOREIGN OIL BROKE AMERICA - March, 2009

America uses 22 million barrels of oil a day, which is almost 25% of the world’s oil production. Most of this oil goes into our electric plants. On ratio, the United States uses one-half coal and one-half oil.

China uses all its in-house oil and coal and now buys 10% foreign oil to keep its electric plants, etc. running. China puts two new electric plants on line every week.

Chinese economic experts warn their hierarchy that in ten years China will need 15% of the world oil. India, Vietnam, and other nations are in a spiral of high industrialization and will need a larger percentage of world oil. All of their figures will continue to grow.

Motor vehicle use in non-Western countries is rising at a phenomenal rate and demanding a higher share of world oil. Russian and Chinese larger cities are seeing gridlocked freeways more intense than here in the United States and in European Union city traffic. Even with today’s enormous price hike, oil petroleum companies can barely satisfy demand.

The oil prices of today (2008) should remain stable till the end of this year. 2009 and 2010 will probably shock oil buyers when the next big prices hikes come.

Price surges of $200.00 and $250.00 a barrel at the end of 2010 will forcibly change the way the world does business. The rule will be “Adapt of Die”.

Global energy experts secretly laugh at the idea of solar, geothermal, gasohol, and even windmills solving America’s energy problems in the next 20 years. Whether you like it or not, only oil and coal can keep the United States in steady paychecks for the next 28 years.


666 MILLION BARRELS OF OIL - March, 2009

America uses 666 million barrels of world oil each month, and 91,666,666 tons of coal each month; almost all of both is fed into our electric plants.

The U.S. uses one-half oil, and one-half coal to make our electricity.

The oil costs about 800 billion a year and satisfies watchful foreign oil lobbyists in Washington, D.C.

The U.S. has no oil vote, but being the world’s biggest buyer; switching to all coal for electricity could cause a world oil country depression.

Without speaking, the thunderous voice of the U.S. dollar makes foreigners who wish to hurt America, have sleepless nights.

In these days of sub-prime, and crazy fluctuating oil prices, many businesses have to be bailed out by the federal government.

An 8% unemployment, and a 4.5% drop in G.D.P. (Gross Domestic Product) has many citizens extremely worried.

You can only imagine what a gigantic drop of 22.5% would do to oil nations.

I’m not sure how many anti-U.S. people would jump out of ten story windows, but, what goes around comes around.

Years ago, when coal and oil were very low-priced, many electric companies switched to oil because it was less bulky. A three-month turnaround is needed for the plants to go from coal to oil. This is also true if the U.S. plants went back to coal.

Wise, highly-educated foreign oil economists warned their leaders about the possibility of the U.S. switching back to their budget coal.

They decided on an expensive plan. They hired U.S. lobbyists in Washington, D.C.

The deep pocketed lobbyists -with their access to media-demonized coal for the last 15 years very successfully.

They quietly donated cash to the movie-star-go-green campaigns.

They also hired all the top-name federal officials leaving office.

For instance, Madellin Allbright –President Clinton’s secretary of state went on United Arab Emirates payroll. As well as Bob Dole, the senator who ran a push for the presidency.

Our last President Bush signed a deal with the Emirates to help in some kind of nuclear assistance. Iran and the Emirates are great trading partners.

The lobbyists also found scientists out of the many thousands who believed in the ‘sky is falling’ greenhouse theory.

These selected scientists received their 15 minutes of fame, and much media coverage.

Clinton’s vice president, the extremely rich Al Gore denounced America as the world ‘greatest polluter’, with no will to change at the Bali, Indonesia Conference in 2007.

 The only question is: When Al closes the last U.S. factory who will donate our bread and pay our socialist party dues?

Trusting Americans did not know that “going-green” talk meant less green in the paychecks.

Tiny amounts of electricity coming from alternate energies in its infancy –and volatile oil prices- will keep America as a factory less debtor nation.

If America demanded that all coal be used in electric plants immediately: we would have an instant resurrection in business. No federal or tax dollars would be needed. We would be back in the business ballgame.

Our choice: Stay with the greenhouse goofies and the foreign oil lobbyists, or go back to making America great.

Or, will the last worker leaving, please turn off the lights.


AMERICA IS ENERGY INDEPENDENT - March, 2009

America alone has the most energy in the world. Oil reserves on this earth are far less then the 300-year coal reserves of the United States. Lord John Brown, British Petroleum C.E.O., in 2005 said that all world oil will run out in 40 years. His powerful company, with access to all world oil statistics, stated that sobering news.

The former British Petroleum top executive inferred Alternate Energy would cover less than 2% of total world needs. This writer is guessing that in 40 years when oil can’t keep world machines running, the United States will have to export coal -or huge electric batteries- to save civilization as we know it.

Global experts say Alternate Energy is expensive. It has many hidden problems and is many years away. The politically-correct, anti-God, misinformed, greenhouse goofies have put us in a terrible position. The foreign oil lobbyists in Washington, D.C. are giving champagne toasts to the gullible America and their successful effort to curb United States lower-cost coal. America’s national debt of 11 trillion means we have to beg China for enough money to pay the one trillion interest charge.

To raise all American paychecks and stock –to let the United States produce again for the world markets- let us use our ending supply of lower-budget coal. Our scientists broke the extremely complex uranium atom years ago so they can surely break the less difficult carbon atom; AS WE ARE USING IT.


FOREIGN OIL/AMERICAN OIL

WE BUY 12 MILLION BARRELS OF EXPENSIVE FOREIGN OIL
EACH DAY, THEN BLOW IT OUT OF OUR EXHAUST PIPES.

EVEN THOUGH ALASKA, TEXAS, ETC., PRODUCE ENOUGH OIL
DAILY TO TAKE CARE OF EVERY AMERICAN VEHICLE.

ELECTRIC PLANTS USE HALF COAL, AND HALF FOREIGN OIL.
IF THEY USED ALL COAL, OUR GAS STATION PRICES WOULD
PROBABLY DROP TO A DOLLAR FIFTY PER GALLON.
ELECTRIC PRICES FOR HOMES WOULD LIKELY DROP BY A
THIRD.

WE PAY HALF OF THE DAILY BILL FOR FOREIGN OIL WITH
GOLD AND DOLLARS. THEN, SIGN I.O.U's FOR THE BALANCE
BECAUSE WE ARE A DEBTOR NATION NOW.

WATCH OUT - IF WE DON'T START PAYING CHINA ON THE
HUGE DEBT THAT WE HAVE, THEY MAY FORECLOSE ON US.
I WOULD HATE TO SEE FLORIDA AND MAINE GET
REPOSSESSED AS A PARTIAL LOAN REPAYMENT.


AMERICA NEEDS A STATESMAN

OUR WORKERS LOST 37% OF THEIR PAY IN THE LAST 15
YEARS. THEY NEVER SAW THE MONEY. THEY SIMPLY
JOINED THE LARGE SHRINKING MIDDLE CLASS.

FOREIGN OIL IS BREAKING US AND IT IS NOT NECESSARY.
PROOF: ALASKA, TEXAS, OKLAHOMA, ETC., PRODUCE EIGHT
MILLION BARRELS OF OIL DAILY.

U.S. MOTOR VEHICLES USE EIGHT MILLION BARRELS OF OIL
DAILY.

HALF OF AMERICAN ELECTRICITY IS FUELED BY THE NEW
HYBRID COAL. THE OTHER HALF IS FUELED BY 12 MILLION
BARRELS OF FOREIGN OIL.

PLEASE EXPLAIN TO THE NATION THAT BY USING 100%
COAL FOR ELECTRICITY, IT WILL GREATLY LOWER
AMERICAN ENERGY COST - BRING UP THE MIDDLE CLASS IN
WAGES - AND ALLOW US TO COMPETE WITH OUR
POWERFUL CHINESE RIVAL.

CHINA HAS NOW OUTSTRIPPED ITS ENERGY RESOURCES
AND BUYS EXPENSIVE FOREIGN OIL IN LARGE QUANTITIES.
A LEVEL PLAYING FIELD IS AT HAND. OUR CHEAPER COAL
ENERGY, VERSUS THEIR CHEAPER LABOR FORCE.

ABOUT 50,000 NEW AMERICAN HIGH-TECH BUSINESSES AND
ASSORTED INDUSTRIES WOULD BE CREATED TO COMPETE
IN WORLD MARKETS.

MODERN MACHINE MINING ALONG WITH NEW ELECTRIFI-
CATION BREAKTHROUGHS, IS NOTHING LIKE OUR GRAND-
FATHERS COAL OF THE 1930'S.


ALL AMERICA NEEDS A BIG PAY BOOST

The trillion dollars we pay yearly for oil means:

We are paying for Iran's nuclear bomb program.

We are paying Venezuela's President (who hates America) to become the region's
new Castro.

We are helping Russia's Putin restart a new Cold War.

Let's cancel all of the above.

We can use our 300-year supply of lower-priced coal and tell our scientists to quickly make
it more ecologically acceptable. In doing this, we will simultaneously start up a hundred
new state of the art electrification plants.

Since Americans don't understand that global warming follows after a global cooling cycle,
investor money is running to China, India, and Viet Nam.

Hey, let's make our own shoes, television sets, etc., and if we really need more kid's toys
and pet food: Let's make it ourselves without the lead in the toys and the poison in the pet
food.


FOREIGN OIL COUNTRIES MAY FACE A GREAT RECESSION

They successfully pushed the price of oil to $80.00 a barrel in less than seven years - from
$11.00 a barrel - and have locked onto $100.00 a barrel in the next thirty-six months.

These moves are causing the United States to rethink its position on our three hundred
year supply of lower cost coal.

For many years we have been using one-half coal and one-half foreign oil. That's twelve
million barrels a day for our electric plants — or giving away one trillion dollars per year.

The seven trillion loss in seven years may have caused the present Social Security and
Medicare shortfall.

Many breakthroughs, like technicians doing clean-coal robotic mining and high-tech
electrification plants are getting close to ecological acceptance. These plants are also
considering South Africa's "Coal to Liquid" operation that seems to work well. Even
"smokeless coal" is on the horizon.

The United States uses twenty million barrels of oil daily. American oil companies locally
produce five million barrels a day. That's enough for every U.S. motor vehicle.

If the United States switched to all coal immediately with the same fervor that we used to
win the Second World War with unbelievable mass production; no drop of foreign oil
would be needed.

This would also bring our shrinking Middle Class back to its previous prosperity.
Lower-cost energy would allow all American businesses to compete in world trade again.

Economists say that all America is behind about 25% in income. For instance, the average
worker's weekly salary of $400.00 should be $600.00 at this time.

Economics: The sub-prime mortgage problem in the United States, which slowed down
our entire economy, may cost us a 2% loss in our "Gross National Product" (G.N.P.). This
is causing worry about a possible recession.

Economics: Foreign oil countries will lose around 15% in their G.N.P. if America stopped
buying their oil.

If a 2% loss could cause America to fear a recession, then a 15% loss would surely be a
depression to the foreign oil producing countries.


AMERICAN WORKERS MUST BUY CHINESE STOCK

AMERICAN WORKERS MUST BUY CHINESE STOCK OR
DEMAND THAT OUR LOW-PRICED 300-YEAR COAL SUPPLY BE
USED TO COMPETE IN WORLD MARKETS.

NEW SCIENTIFIC HYBRID COAL FACTS ARE NOT TALKED
ABOUT FOR A GOOD REASON.

BIG-WORLD MONEY HAS INVESTED IN CHINA, INDIA AND
VIET NAM. THEY DON'T WANT THE PREVIOUS U.S.A.
PRODUCTION GIANT TO COMPETE AND RUIN PROFITS.

TOP ECONOMISTS SAY, "THE AVERAGE AMERICAN PAY OF
$400 WEEKLY SHOULD BE $600 WEEKLY AT THIS TIME.

OUR SHRINKING MIDDLE-CLASS WORKERS ARE UNKNOW-
INGLY PAYI NG $200 WEEKLY TO GUARANTEE THE SUCCESS
OF CHINESE FACTORIES.

OUR 15 YEARS OF BEING A DEBTOR NATION WILL CONTINUE
UNTIL WE LEARN TO VOTE RIGHT.


The Earth's Golden Time Is Here

The Earth's golden time is here. And it seems to be getting better and better.

The huge amount of greenery across the world is mind-boggling. In the near future, the
total population of the world will top 7 billion people. The Earth's inhabitants, along
with hundreds of billions of animals, are being fed in grand style. In fact, global
organizations are citing obesity as the next big problem. Whatever country a person
lives in, or whatever currency he or she uses, food of all sorts is readily available.
Television news only shows people who are starving in deserts or those who live under
oppressive governments or in marginal cultivating zones.

America, the European Union, and Western countries saw overproduction in food crops
occurring as far back as 35 years ago. Farmers were paid, or subsidized not to plant, and
therefore let the land sit idle. Asian and African farming nations complained that the
West wouldn't buy their farm products.

Global Warming

Misguided individuals or political people are making money by frightening us. NASA
debunked the claims of global warming. Slippery ex-politicos have a good reason for
trotting out movie stars and selected scientists. Hype, half-truths, and sound bites are
used for a plan. The hidden purpose is to talk the United States out of using our 300-
year supply of lower-cost coal. And they won. Fifteen years of con paid off. For them.

China gained at least 2 trillion dollars from foreign investors. Now it is the world's
greatest producer. The intelligent, well-informed moneyed people could not compete
using expensive foreign oil. They wisely invested overseas a few years ago. Only
working people will feel the next U.S. recession. America said good-bye to its factories
and higher-paid jobs. We were told this was to save the whales and polar bears.

Everyone knew that Chinese smoke was greener than American smoke. In the last 15
years, U.S. incomes in every class lost 30 percent of their correct amount

Mistruths by political green gurus do pay off big. For them! Even the U.N. has smelled
money. The U.N. is pushing the "high seas act." If you drill for oil anywhere in the
world oceans, you must get permission from the organization. The U.N. will also charge
to oversee it

C02: Carbon Dioxide

Without C02 and water there would be no life on this planet We breathe in oxygen,
then exhale that terrible poison gas called carbon dioxide, C02. The plants, fruit trees,
vegetables, flowers, and all plant life take in this CO2, and then turn it into the food that
we desperately need. When the trees, plants, and vegetation are finished making food
for us, they give off oxygen, a waste product. Thank God for this partnership.

Yes, there is some excess CO2. Most of it comes from the 1,000 volcanoes in the sea or
the 500 on land that have been created over the past centuries. We don't know why the
Earth needs all this C02. But I would advise against corking up all the volcanoes.
Maybe the planet is anticipating the coming of 20 or 30 billion people and is getting a
head start on growing all the necessary trees and plants.

Extreme Cold Weather Events

On January 11,2008, the first snowfall in living memory came to Iraq.

Also in January of 2008, China had freezing snow and ice for more than five weeks.
Older citizens say this has not been seen for 60 years. One million Chinese soldiers were
sent to help the millions caught in this catastrophe.

A great amount of snow fell on a county in New Mexico in February of 2008. Governor
Bill Richardson declared the county a disaster zone.

In Afghanistan, more than 1,000 people died during the freeze on February 12,2008—
the worst in that country's history. The Afghan Army was mobilized to free the closed-
off villagers. Thousands of frostbite victims had to face having their hands or feet
amputated.

Chicago, in the Midwest, and New York, in the Northeast, both recorded colder than
usual temperatures.

These events raise the question: Are we in a warming or cooling time? Does anyone
really know?

The broadcast television programs NOVA and Annenberg Science report that 100 years
is too short a time frame to note what the Earth is doing. Geological time runs in 100,000
years for a complete cycle.

Not one scientist will stand up and say, "People caused all the greenhouse gas." Some
will say we could have added a small amount starting in the 1820s (during the Great
Industrial Revolution) to the present day. Maybe in the next 5,000 years, we will
understand how this partially visible ceiling fits into the Earth's cycle.

Snake Oil Salesmen

I was born in the late 1920's, and I have heard it all For instance, in the 1940s, when the
United States had 134 million people, experts said the world could not provide enough
food when the total world population would reach 3 billion. We passed that mark, and
now have the problem of world obesity. I repeat: obesity. The experts' facts were true,
but it was their theories on the future that usually came out wrong. Just like today.

Smokey the Bear lied to me next He pointed a sorrowful finger at me and said, "Only
you can prevent forest fires." Later, in the library, I discovered that 17 out of 20 forest
fires are caused by lightning. Next, they hired a Hollywood Indian actor. With a
soulful look and a tear in his eye, he showed us that we were ruining the land.

After Mount St. Helens blew up, the scientists said it would never be the same. And a
few years later, it all came back by itself. Just like Lake Erie did in the past

To be honest, 1 was fooled or conned by radio, newspapers, and TV over and over again
in the last 80 years. My favorite television newscaster pointed a finger at me. She
said, "Only you can prevent global warming!" This beautiful, voice-trained person was
reading from a teleprompter, and I was almost taken in again. I wondered who put the
words on the teleprompter. I found out that two news machines distribute information
that can be chosen by television, radio, and newspaper people. Everyone seems to
accept it—just like God himself okayed it I thought about this, and figured it was like a
hidden ventriloquist and a dummy.

Like many third-world nations, America has become a debtor nation. And I suddenly
realized I was the dummy. I turned off the TV. I tried to figure out what group or media
was trying to fool me. And how did they gain by making us a poor consumer nation
that can't pay its bills?

I remember a refrain from Tennessee Ernie Ford's coal-miner's song: "St Peter, don't
call me to the Golden Gate. I owe my soul to the company store." It appears today that
China is the company store.

I have a question: Since China is buying up many U.S. businesses and financial
institutions, what about late payers like me? If I'm late on mortgage or rent payments,
will a couple of pistol-packing Chinese soldiers throw me out in the street? Or will they
have their American employees simply do it?

Are the stock brokers who get big Asian dividends behind all this "greenhouse gas" con
about coal? With 50,000 foreign- and domestic- registered lobbyists in Washington, D.C.,
it is difficult to know who is calling the shots. I used to think that the politicians I voted
for would represent me, but...

America's Supply of Coal

The Washington, D.C. foreign-oil country lobbyists are against our using the U.S.
supply of 300-year, lower-priced coal. Why? Because the United States buys 22 percent
of the world's oil. The loss could cause a depression in Iran, Venezuela, and Russia.

Most Americans believe we are buying expensive oil for our cars. Local U.S. oil
companies produce 5 million barrels of oil daily. That's enough for every American
motor vehicle. we buy 12 million barels of oil daily for our electric plants. Let's use our coal.
"We don't need no stinkin' foreign oil." Then add the $800 billion we spend on imported goods per
year—to kill U.S. workers' high-paying jobs—and send them into the low-paying
service sector. Now you can understand why your savings account is low, and you find
it difficult to pay rent or make your mortgage payment.

Most Americans also don't know that the. United States has been using half coal for
many years to fuel our electric plants. And the other half is fueled by foreign oil. Some
kind of unwritten law exists that says that we cannot use more than 50 percent coal to
feed our electric plants.

If energy prices dropped like a stone, U.S. factories would return to big production
again. My research was abruptly stopped. I hit a brick wall when I made inquiries about
this unwritten law on coal. A powerful political maze seemed to be there to strangle
American incomes. Truly, it is unbelievably effective.

Since China has outstripped its energy requirements, it is buying huge amounts of
expensive foreign oil. The country is buying oil from all over the world in a mad rush to
keep its factories in production. China's prices on consumer goods will have to rise
significantly or it will break the Communist government China's gigantic
infrastructure costs—building dams, roads, and entire cities—are complicated by
workers demanding higher wages.

If America used all coal in its electric plants, our country could probably make world
products cheaper than China, India, Viet Nam, and other such countries. Ifs a case of
their cheaper labor versus our cheaper energy.

When a large number of higher-paying jobs are restored, the Federal Reserve's 3 trillion
dollars of yearly income will also grow. Added federal income will cancel the worries
about Social Security, Medicare, and other similar large governmental programs.

A sleepy America hasn't noticed that a "level playing field" has emerged. Don't get
excited about the United States waking up and returning to be the world's greatest
producer: Our humble nation has become used to smaller incomes and, growing debt.
The film stars, selected scientists, and lifetime politicians turned into green gurus will
talk you out of it Again, and again. And the big money and the powerful media will
help, as usual.

Here is a strange fact: Americany citizen own the arwaves, and the enemy used this to
conquer us. It's like the victim making the sword for his executioner.

— Don Wynne

P.S. I'm not talking political/,I'm talking American.


America's Income Resurrection Is Now

America's income resurrection is now. Or, we can sit still and let this subprime debacle, the nine
trillion-dollar debt, the trade deficit, and the unpaid huge sum we owe China turn into another
great world depression.

Let's talk about the bad news first. Fifteen years ago, we were quietly led into using half foreign
oil for our electric plants. Our wealth was sucked away in a clever, but steady way. In 1939,
when I was in fourth grade, I heard an old proverb that I could never forget "A fool and his
money are soon parted."

Later, around 1990, strange things began to happen. Young people were told they wouldn't
have a house as fine as their parents. Unions were talked into starting new workers at lower pay
than their fathers had received. Factories began to close across the nation. High-paid jobs were
hijacked to India and other such countries. And, the low-wage U.S. service sector welcomed
many new members. Foreign-oil lobbyists in Washington, D.C., and special interests people,
overseas investors with some control of mass media had pulled off "the greatest con ever told."

I remember that famous Jack Nicholson movie where he was asked a tough question by an
intense military prosecutor. Jack replied, "You can't handle the truth!" Now I wonder, can
America handle the truth? I could not refute 15 years of mass-media, part-truths about
"greenhouse guessing" and "global scaring." So, I won't even try. If you use your God-given
common sense and logic, you can find the truth. Read on.

Today, the mass of greenery on the globe is feeding 7 billion people and an immeasurable
number of animals. Look up and say thanks to Mother Nature.

People are living almost twice as long as they did a few years ago. The internet and library facts
are showing obesity to be the new world problem. I repeat: world obesity.

Question: If we were in trouble with our food or vegetation greenery, why would many nations
be trying to turn the surplus into fuel for motor vehicles?

Now let's cut to the chase. We can stop this coming depression in its tracks. People made
America great. Cheaper coal electric energy made us rich. If we went back to using all coal in
our electric plants, we could kiss off all foreign oil and debt. The proof: we did it three times in
the past. Check the internet or library under U.S. history.

We need twice the electric plants we have now. And all must be fueled by American coal so we
can compete in foreign markets again. We have a three-century supply of American coal. I'm
reminded of that wonderful Kevin Costner line in the film Field of Dreams, "If you build it, they
will come."

The Sea-Bees. The name refers to the great American Navy battalion in World War II that built
airfields in the jungles almost overnight and under heavy enemy fire. That's the heroism we
need to build America back up.

Greenhouse gases and surplus CO2 spewing from the world's 1,500 volcanoes and into the
stratosphere were here millions of years before Man walked the Earth. And they will be here
after we're gone. Coal, too, has some problems. But scientists must fix it while we're using it. Let's
wake up and admire the flowers and beautiful trees. "Money talks and greenhouse walks."

A Level Playing Field. China's consumer goods prices are starting to rise. They ran short on
domestic fuel for electrical energy, and must now rely on foreign oil countries. I feel sorry for
China because it is dangerous to trust the foreign-oil people. First they'll talk up the price to
$100 a barrel (seven years ago, it was $11 a barrel). And if you pay $100, they'll figure a way to
push the price to $200 a barrel.

Ask, and You Shall Receive. I was watching a movie on TV that had an extremely long
commercial, so I starting flipping channels with the-clicker. I hit one station with a black
preacher speaking. I heard the words, "Ask, and it will be given to you," before I clicked to
another station. It suddenly dawned on me that if the American public demanded that foreign
oil stop coming here, and that all coal be used for electricity, "it would happen." And quickly,
like during World War II, the U.S. mass production would raise every American's income more
than 30 percent .

"Let George do it." Entrepreneurs, seeing a number of new electric plants being built at the
same time, would rush to form new companies to challenge China. If China's prices to the
world are going up, and U.S. energy prices ans going down, U.S. salespeople have a chance to
grab market share. America already has a high-tech, well-educated population of 300 million
people and an established infrastructure of freeways, railways, and waterways.

Look at our past: it is almost un-American to be without surplus cash. Time is short. This
recession cannot be allowed to turn into another Great Depression. Warning flags are already
up. Regular Americans are becoming homeless and tent cities are being created.

American Eagle Phoenix Rising. The legendary Phoenix—who mistakenly got itself totally
consumed by fire/ and then rose up from its own ashes as a strong, youthful bird—represents
the American public. The American eagle's strong talons are like our dream to get back into the
fight for world business. We shout, "Bring bucks back,"

At least 75 new, simultaneously built electric plants will start America's engine. America is our
name, mass production is our game! Thousands of new factories will need to be constructed as
the United States goes back into high gear. Our motto-will be, "You name it, and we'll make it
better, quicker, and cheaper." The coal-mining industry should have no problem doubling
production. The industry stayed high tech with the times. Its coal is clean and robotic—nothing
like the granddaddy's coal of me 1940s.

The budget of the electric plant's energy is the lifeblood of our economy. For years, each plant
did research as it could, but the nation never considered it as a priority goal. Our government
sent physicists and scientists into secret areas to create atomic weapons, spacecraft, putting
people on the moon, and place-roving machines on Mars. They did this at federal expense and
oversight As an emergency for the American economy, let's do the same with coal. Besides
coal, let them work on long-lasting electric batteries and electric car design. When this
knowledge is passed freely to our U.S. manufacturers, we could sell electric cars and batteries to
the world.

This could happen rather quickly. And, for the electric dreamer, how about a newly designed
electrical airplane with powerful, safe batteries? Our air passengers have been sitting on many
tons of explosive liquids for almost 100 years. Let's give them a safe and quiet ride by getting
back to inventiveness on the drawing boards. Lets bring America forward to the greatness of
it's past.



Coal Is America's Gold

Let's cancel this recession and boost all U.S. incomes 30 percent

For many years, we Americans have been buying foreign oil for our electric plants. (The
United States uses half coal and half oil on a national ratio.) Local U.S. oil companies
pump out 5 million barrels per day. That's probably enough for every American motor
vehicle. If we used all local coal, electric prices would drop considerably. New electric
plants would gain by econimoics of scale.

China's product prices are now rising because the country has outstripped its domestic
energy supply. The country now faces a sobering future. China must now buy huge
amounts of expensive foreign oil.

On the other hand, the United States has a 300-year supply of lower-cost coal. And our
energy prices would continue to drop as larger quantities are used (again, due to
economies of scale). A level playing field would emerge for American factories and
businesses. This period would mark the fourth time that America has risen to be the
world's greatest producer. This era will have a feeling similar to what the United States
experienced on July 4, 1776—when we kicked out the foreign government that ruled
over us.

Starting in 1820—and through the First and Second Industrial Revolutions—American
industry pushed paychecks to new heights. Even during the Second World War, all U.S.
incomes rose more than 30 percent almost overnight as America produced for half the
world. During this time, an unlimited amount of lower-priced coal fueled U.S. electric
plants around the clock, seven days a week. Average Americans bought homes, cars,
and many had a summer cottage by a lake.

We don't need no stinkin' foreign oil. China, however, is paying $100 a barrel. It will be
forced to pay any price Russia, Iran, Venezuela, and other oil-rich countries demand.

Foreign oil lobbyists in Washington, D.C, along with other special-interest groups, and
their control of mass media, have demonized the use of coal in the United States for the
last 15 years. These groups brought out the best scientists that money could buy—
movie stars and even ex-politicians—to convince us that we are ruining the Earth.

Stop listening to doomsday talk and dire predictions on the Earth's future. Smell the
roses. The Earth is alive, and bountiful. Sometimes, the Earth is warm, and sometimes it
is cold. Farmers rotate their crops to keep the ground healthy. The Earth rotates its
regions. This world has never been greener. This God-given Earth is abundant

Instead, human obesity is the new world danger. Global experts are saying obesity is
becoming the new world problem. Think about it: besides 7 billion people, untold
hundreds of billions of animals are being fed. So much greenery and food crops exist
that many nations are planning to make feedstock sources into biofuels for motor
vehicles.

The news media shows people at war or living in harsh deserts. We swallowed all the
greenhouse theories, and became a consumer nation. We quit becoming the No. 1 world
producer. Today, we couldn't brush our teeth, buy a kid's toy, or have a television set if
China didn't produce it

We're still listening to con. That's why we are a debtor nation with a national debt of 9
trillion dollars. The U.S. federal government in 1985, with a national debt of 2 trillion
dollars made a quiet decision to pay only the interest, and let our grandchildren pay the
actual debt itself. Unfortunately, with no one minding the store, the debt increased to 9
trillion dollars by 2007. In 2009, the interest alone will be one trillion dollars. Since this
debt is an unpayable sum, no politician will mention it

The U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) was nearly 13 trillion dollars in 2007. The Fed's
tax income was 2 1/2 trillion dollars — almost enough to support all of its yearly
responsibilities.

Shades of the later subprime debacle. Did our banks follow the Fed's example?

We love to complain about our politicians, but to tell the truth, it is not their job to do
business or make money for their constituents. Governments around the world, past
and present, have never made money for their citizens. Check the U.S. Constitution: The
U.S. government only spends money. As citizens, we can only cross our fingers and
hope the government does things right

When present-day robotic mining and our present-day electrification
plants are doubled, all American incomes will rise almost immediately. American citizens
only have to demand that coal and electric sources be expedited, then sit back and
watch. U.S. entrepreneurs will race across the globe to bring home the business. They
may even sell power to China because the United States will make it better, quicker,
and cheaper.



We Don't Need No Stinkin' Foreign Oil

Your great grandparents left Europe where they had no acreage, no respect, and no
money, and came to America to claim their piece of the land. Your grandfather built a
bigger house, put money in the bank, and sent your father to grammar school, and
then to high school. America grew in riches and world power, and produced products that
helped lift people up all over the Earth. Your parents gave you a good life, and made
sure you realized the highest level of education.

Although an unlimited, low-priced American supply of coal made all these great things
possible, you chose to start buying expensive foreign oil for our electric plants (12
bullion barrels a day). Now, after 15 years of sending our wealth overseas, the U.S.
federal government owes trillions it can't pay, and you can't even hold on to your own
house.

Your children might ask you three questions:

1. Didn't you know that both oil and coal are similarly carbon based?
2. Didn't you know that local U.S. oil companies pump up 5 million barrels of oil
daily—enough to fuel every American motor vehicle? You listened to special
interests spin and selected scientists' hype instead of checking the actual scientific
facts about their greenhouse guessing and global-scaring talk.
3. OK, parents, what do you think about taking early retirement and letting us take
over?

We will tell every foreign oil ship to "take it back. Jack," and stick it in your oil tank. We
are going to expand our clean-coal, robotic mining, and double our ultra-modem electric
plants. We're going back to low-budget, electrical energy. Then, we're going to build
high-tech factories to compete in all world markets. Then, we're going to raise all
American incomes—literally overnight—just like they did in World War II's massive
production. If there are any complaints on coal, we'll fix it fast.

We sent smart people into the desert to create atomic weapons. We sent space ships and
people to the moon. We still have two machines roving around the surface of Mars. So,
we should be able to make coal more acceptable as we're using it.

America is the only large country with a massive 300-year supply of coal. China's in-
house electricity source is disappearing, so it must keep buying expensive foreign oil.
China's product prices are now rising. Later, we could sell electric energy to the world.
But first, we have to build our factories and then turn our global salespeople loose.

With almost one-third of a billion educated people and a country with a huge
infrastructure of highways, waterways, and railways already in place, the United States
could outproduce anybody, anytime, and any place. The entire world is waiting for a
decent-priced electric car and a longer-lasting battery. And who but Uncle Sam in
World War II has a record of making machines fast, to spread across half the globe. A
U.S. production of electric cars for the world is difficult, but a doable task.


Al Gore/Manchurian Candidate

Fact follows fiction. The brainwashing film where a vice president is to be catapulted
into the American presidency as a Chinese puppet eerily mirrors Al Gore's path. ATs
gory greenhouse brainwashing has made the former Vice President famous, and
opened the great possibility for a 2013 presidential run.

The China connection is also similar. For every smoking American factory Al closes, a
bigger one opens in China. And China did not even pay for this greenhouse
brainwashing. Or rather, I hope it didn't

Many U.S. financial experts are taking a stern look at our electric plants7 use of half
foreign oil and half U.S. low-budget coal. Twelve million barrels of foreign oil daily has
put us close to a serious recession, and even a Great Depression if the foreign-oil
lobbyists in Washington, D.C. have their way.

No foreign oil is needed because U.S. oil companies bring up 5 million barrels a day.
This is sufficient for all U.S. gas engines. AFs gory predictions of disaster in 100 years-
like any future theory — can't be proved, or disproved, until 100 years later.

Al is a strong-looking, handsome guy, with a great speaking voice. He is a well-
educated, lifetime politician. So when he talks about deep science, people listen. He has
assembled a powerful team—the best money can buy;—coupled with a $300-million-
dollar announced budget to prove that the green sky is falling.

I actually believe he might succeed. And, if you could see across the vast ocean, a group
of high Chinese Communist officials will be clapping their hands for Al.


There's Blood on the Gas Pumps - Download PDF in Don's own handwriting.

The body matter is not there physically–but after you realize the truth–your hand may feel sticky.

Unhappily, we bowed to the foreign oil countries greed, and paid their price.

We, like many other countries–also decided quickly to turn a large amount of food stocks into fuel.

The instant shortage of food plus the 40% increase in food prices–hit the third world people like a nuclear bomb.

Many things are now happening at the same time. Hundreds of millions of Chinese walked out of rural rice paddys and into the newly built cities.

Better jobs: Higher pay: Decent apartments gave them access to more, and better foods.

A high official in India said 300 million people who ate once a day, are now eating twice a day because of global progress in employment.

However, for the billion of people that still live on the desperate edge of the poverty line; the oil price and global progress will dictate terrible choices to allow family survival.

Educated people who have access to the internet and libraries, already know what poor people will do historically when their food and jobs disappear.

Actually, it is too well documented, and could upset people with queasy stomachs who attempt to read the following facts.

Newborn girl babies will be either strangled by their mothers, or held under water.

Grandparents in their families will eat less than needed to survive, and give up taking the cheapest medicines like aspirin for acute pain.

Some starving families sell their small children to procurers who promise them a good life with foreign families. however, amy children wind up with sex perverts who abuse, and beat them, and sometimes kill them.

Parents living on hope and prayers will watch their children slowly disintegrate. Tiny Stomachs without food start popping out in a distended way and their hair becomes bleached looking.

The Armenian genocide, and the Jewish holocaust of 10 million people will pale if this billion people are not rescued.

Some forward thinking experts–with no respect for the foreign oil lobbyists in Washington, D.C.–say a simple switch from half coal in our electric plants to all coal is the logical solution.

The 12 million barrels of oil we put in our electric plants daily, turned us into a debtor nation.

Since foreign oil is so expensive, we could not compete in manufacturing and closed most of our factories.

Them we spent almost a trillion dollars on imports yearly, ringing up a debt of 9 trillion dollars today.

The D.C. lobbyists 17 years of coal con decimated American finances. They convinced us the CO2 that makes our food, and greenery was bad.

They spent millions proving that we were killing the whales, polar bears, and causing greenhouse gas.

In May, 2008, scientists proved that the 1500 humpback whales reported was actually 20,000. Canada also showed that the polar bear number was so large, it was creating a problem with people.

Scientists also proved that icebergs are either growing, or melting, in their cycles .

7 billion people: a trillion animals are proving the earth has never been more friendly.

However, we still don't really understand the surplus of CO2, and the greenhouse gas that has been around for millions of years.

God is watching.


America Must Return to Progress - Download PDF in Don's own handwriting.

Speaking bluntly:
Money comes with progress.
Americans need money!
America needs money!

Stop asking politicians what they are doing to get us out of this bad economic time. It is not their job to make money for the citizens.

All governments collect taxes. When an economy goes down–and people lose jobs–the politicians become the scapegoats.

So let us concentrate on bringing up the economy, and forget about blame.

President Kennedy asked what can you do for the country. Today unfortunately, the answer is, "we ain't doin' nothin!"

We need a huge economic turnaround. here is one solution. but please read the whole essay to see the full explanation.

Coal made America rich in the past. With it's lower-cost electricity, we beat all worldly competition. And all the dollars we paid for American coal stayed in America to give us a double bang for the same buck.

However, Russia, Venezuela and Iran are grateful for all the shiploads of American dollars that you keep sending them.

Simultaneously, we must build at least a hundred all-coal electric plants.

This will take us off all foreign oil. Local oil companies produce enough oil for our cars.

We never asked ammunition manufacturers to make atomic weapons in WWII. We decided the research had to be done as a big national priority.

America gathered up all the best scientists and research people, and built a temporary city where the military could watch over.

They succeeded, and we can do it again with coal to save our economy.

Our soldiers were fighting with rifles, while the big bomb was being built in two tight years.

We must be using all coal in our electric plants while the carbon atom is being torn apart by specialists. We know they can do it.

Our low cost electric energy against overseas low cost labor will give us a level playing field.

Like three times in the past, we can quickly rise up again like the phoenix, who rose up from its own ashes.

THE EXPLAINATION: We are already using half-coal, and half foreign oil in out electric plants.

Our U.S. coal companies use clean-coal robotic mining, and will produce any amount asked of them. They should not have a problem digging deeper into our three century supply of coal. China is one of their best customers.

"Electric plants, and investors" We have to kill the five years of letter writing, etc. Before a new plant can be built. The financial delay is killing our economy.

We have a full loaf of experienced inspectors. Including federal; state; county; city, and rural inspectors in place.

No more asking permission to build an electric plant. The new plant visionaries merely have to find an area that welcomes their large cash investment, and high-paid jobs.

The new electric plant people must simply get a copy of the building plans of the most recently built, and O.K'.ed plant. Like the new high-tech plant just built in Texas, 2007.

Inspectors will check on all progress. from beginning to end. No one gets a free pas son safety/ecology.

Thousands of entrepreneurs will see these simultaneously built plants being constructed, and will rush across the world to compete in global business.

All American incomes should rise at least 30% within the first twelve months. This happened in the U.S. industrial revolution, and again in the second world war.

Hopefully, by the time business has returned with great prosperity, and higher paid jobs; the scientists will have turned the carbon atom into an American friend.

"The electric future" Once a great nation like America dominates the lower priced energy market, amazing high-tech things will happen.

The U.S. could produce electric cars for the world in the biggest car factory ever dreamed of.

And if the electric battery people merged into one giant enterprise, they could sell clean electric energy to the world.

Question: Are any of our colleges–or deep thinkers who work in their garage–trying to design a safe electric airplane?

Patient airline passengers have been sitting on thousands of pounds of volatile explosive liquids for over a century.

Where, oh where, are our American Da Vinci's hiding?

D.W./Talkin' true.


Free Hundred Billion Dollar Federal Lottery Proposal for All U.S. Citizens - Download PDF
(Creating 100 thousand new millionaires.)

My idea follows our American history tradition: Culture and heritage of free land.

The statuesque lady, standing in New York harbor whispered, "freedom and land." And the cry roared across oceans; as the masses crowded onto ships. And they came, and they came. And it became God's greatest nation.

Each winner (100,00 winners) gets 5,000 acres (500 million in all).

Both valuable, and lesser land, will be valued at lesser price of 200 dollars per acre.

Every winner can probably count on one million dollars if sold. However, some winners may wind up with a 20 or 30 million dollar property. Memo: See it, before you sell it.

This is B.L.M. land (Bureau of Land Management) bought dirt-cheap by President Tom JEfferson from Napoleon in 1803.

Three-quarters of a billion acres still remain in political hands in Washington, D.C.

250 million acres has already been given away to states that need it. Other land wound up in lobbyists' friends pockets.

Favored political leader people are usually appointed to oversee this civilian-owned land.

50,000 registered lobbyists in Washington, D.C. will likely scream if this plum is taken away. And with their connection to high people–plus the media–they may talk us out of this lottery.

They talked us into buying foreign oil; instead of using our 4 century supply of lower-priced coal. Our surplus cash went into Iran, Russia, and Venezuela, to name a few.

we became a debtor nation. As we fed foreign oil into our electric plants.

Back to the 100 billion dollar free lottery: Democracy rules that every American citizen will get a free ticket. Regardless of age, or any other discrimination.

New 5000 acre winners must abide by standing rental agreements until they end. Some federal land is presently rented to cattle ranchers, and gold-mining companies, etc.

"It's time to jumpstart the U.S. engine." The 100 billion dollar lottery is only a tiny deposit on America's future.

In the past these giveaways have added trillions of bucks to our economy. Deserts will start bearing fruits; vegetables; trees, and new Las Vegas-type cities will pop up.

Factories and industries will flourish when you turn the people loose.

Every parcel today is within the United States boundaries. All territorial laws are already in place. they will simply be expanded to these newly acquired areas. Including taxes, security, etc.

American's who walk the land–and talk the land–know best how to help the land. rather than have a politician at a desk in Washington, D.C. send out dictorial memos.

WIN-WIN SITUATION. Local federal employees should be hired by state, and county districts to avoid any layoffs.

Years ago, the huge Oklahoma territory was all given away free in a race. This great midwest area flourished into big modern cities, and beautiful crop land. Then factories; mining, and industry followed; and became a great green jewel in America's cap.

Moses said to the Egyptian King, "Let my people go." Americans say to the U.S. politicians, "Let my land go."

All Americans must either speak up, or let the usual lobbyists do your thinking for you.


THE "R + R" OF AMERICAN RIVERS

• The West is drying out from a continuous drought.
• Maybe it's time to use some "R + R" like 'Reversing Rivers' and 'Redirecting Flowage'.

Huge dams are dropping a foot a week in water levels. Las Vegas Hotels are importing water for their
recycling fountains. If you look at a topographical map showing U.S. Rivers - and like myself, you are a
water resources amateur - you wonder why there isn't a plan to solve this old problem.

For instance, maps show the Snake River and the Missouri River begin just a few miles apart in
Yellowstone National Park (N. Wyoming).

The Missouri River turns North and runs up alongside the Idaho Border and into Montana. Then, it
turns East into North Dakota/South Dakota. Eventually, it joins the Mississippi River to flow into the
salty Gulf of Mexico.

Question: Could half, or part of the Missouri, be redirected into the Snake River - as it leaves
Yellowstone Park - and heads Southwest through Idaho toward Nevada/California? And, as the
enlarged Snake River travels its normal 300 miles Westward through Idaho; could a natural economical
route be found to redirect the flow, or part of the flow, toward Nevada/California?

The maps show the Snake River's normal path then going up North to join with the Columbia River and
flowing out into the salty Pacific Ocean.

Memo: About a hundred years ago, the City of Chicago reversed the Chicago River and it wasn't that
difficult or expensive. Today, we have G.P.S. and powerful earth-moving machinery. All we lack is the
will to change the status quo.

The Colorado River appears to start in the mountainous area of Central Colorado and then travels a
Southerly trek into the Western dams of Arizona/Nevada, etc.

In Colorado, the North Platte River and the Colorado River start flowing out of the mountains about
thirty miles apart. Question: Since the Platte River travels North, then Southeasterly to join the
Mississippi River on its way to Louisiana's salty Gulf of Mexico; couldn't we redirect part of the Platte
River to join the Colorado River as it flows toward Arizona/Nevada/California?

Besides bringing a large supply of water to the West, it may help decrease the Mississippi's tendency to
flood periodically. Mississippi River floods have caused loss of life - human and animal - and
devastation of farms in Arkansas, Illinois, Missouri, etc.

P.S. This is only a partial list of rivers that could use a little help to better serve its human clients.

Searching For: THE SOUTHWEST PASSAGE

(Re: New Large River, through Canada, to the Dry Western States)
North Dakota's Northern Neighbor — Canada — Has a mutual border that touches the greatest unending
supply of cool, clear water.

THE NORTHWEST PASSAGE

The Northwest Passage idea had fascinated President Thomas Jefferson, even as a child. As President, he
convinced the American Congress in 1803 to fund the Meriwether Lewis and William dark expedition to
find the Northwest Passage to the Pacific.

Congress specifically wanted to know about all the big rivers there and their interaction inside this
Louisiana Purchase. They knew the wealth and health of a fast-growing nation is measured by the will of
its people, the land, and a bountiful water supply. Lewis and dark faced hardship, hunger, frozen
mountain ranges, and hostile locals but their American spirit won out.

Today, you can drive in a comfortable car from Philadelphia, west to St. Louis, and take a northerly
route to Hudson Bay in Canada - with gas, services, choice of restaurants and hotels, all along the way.

THE SOUTHWEST PASSAGE

Perhaps with a Global Positioning Satellite (G.P.S.), the new highest technology computers,
military/civilian space photographs of Earth, we could map out a new river (Mississippi size) with an
intake through Canada into North Dakota and southwest to all the Western States that could use
unlimited water. Traveling all the way down to Utah or Nevada, the new Southwest River needs to be
split south and southeast to service Arizona, New Mexico and Texas. The western fork (or forks of the
river) would take care of Nevada and California.

Expensive? Maybe not as costly as you might think. First we need the O.K. of our good neighbor -
Canada. We would give no advice, unless asked, on how they should make a Northern River intake and
how it would wind through Canada. We would take charge when it entered North Dakota. Riverfront
property is always more valuable than farm property or unused land. Then, there's water sports, fishing,
and more tourism for Canadians.

Back to Bucks! A river, unlike a road, doesn't need to be blasted through a mountain. Straight lines are
costly. A river may meander three or four thousand miles before it gets to its destination (maybe only a
thousand miles from where it started) - creating myriad lakes of all sizes and narrow, rushing waters in
tight areas — as it establishes its path. Topographical maps show most rivers winding in and out of
mountain areas and generally heading in a southerly direction. If a river, with no animal intelligence,
can find a way almost coast to coast, what could the human brain with high tech help do?

Gravity is king. We would have to insure that The Southwest Passage of water will move at a measured
pace. If we let the new river flow too fast down one plain, we may have to pump it over the next hill/rise.

Sorry - The pioneer wagon trainers, the cowboys, the rough riders and even Presidents George
Washington, Jefferson, and Kennedy are gone. But, is it still possible that we could do something on a
Grand Scale today. Forget the Mississippi or Colorado Rivers getting us more water. For many years,
only lawyers are in court — fighting for more water or arguing to keep the share promised to their
individual state. Although this is expensive and time consuming, it does not get much new water from a
finite supply. Maybe, with luck, an ancient ice-age route will be shown and all we have to do is clean the
rubble out of the old passage. Yes, but don't count on it. Although we would start with high-tech
mapping, the actual waterway could possibly be built in a low-tech, less costly way.

River water flows fast from Upper Canada to the Lower United States. For instance, the Mississippi
drops more than sixty feet at the Canadian-American Border. There, a fifty-five foot lock and dam
lowers boats to continue into the United States. At least seven more locks and dams along the Wisconsin-
Minnesota Border try to stop this rushing river from flooding into the United States. Many huge lakes in
this area have been created by this river that is dying to become American.

Many cities spend small fortunes to build higher walls and levees to stop this huge flowage of fresh water
from burying their towns. The Grand Hope is that this excessive clear water will flow quickly through
the United States and down through Louisiana and dump into the Gulf of Mexico to join with the salty
ocean. At that point, good riddance, because low New Orleans is plagued with so much water, they bury
their dead above ground in concrete vaults so they won't float out into the ocean.

Understand clearly, that our mindless new river will always be the final master in choosing a path. It
may decide with gravity to travel back North for sixty miles - then East for fifty miles - before it
meanders back South, where we are impatiently waiting for it. It will create a new fresh-water lake in
any lowland area that it chooses before continuing down the path we picked for it. The new G.P.S.
mapping, etc., will show us these river habits in advance.

To path this new river, we would use mostly low-tech machines and labor — filling certain crevices,
ravines, etc. Since the whole river path and its level will be known in advance, maybe we could use about
three hundred separate work crews to simultaneously work on the river path so it can be finished more
quickly. Small patches of necessary aqueducts and water bridges could be the major cost. Even on a
straight plain, we may have to bulldoze local materials to achieve the desired slope for the river.
Concrete pathways are not desired, or necessary.

We will undoubtedly bisect some east to west or west to easterly rivers. No problem: This could also be a
break for the United States. We need not stick to the rule of a plus sign, which is straight up and down.
We can enter a bisected river, wherever it happens, by cutting our own intake. But G.P.S. might suggest
exiting forty miles away to give us a better traveling Southern Route. We leave the bisected river intact
by gauging our intake and outtake cuts. The only difference to the smaller-cut river is that it will flow
both east and west; away from the powerful intake/outtake cuts. To maintain our use of gravity, we may
have to jump over (water bridge) some low rivers/big streams.

AGRI-BANKS
(AFTER HIGH-TECH, WHAT'S NEXT?)

A few years back, America made steel for the biggest part of the world. Then, we did the same
with automobiles, airplanes, radio, television, communications, etc., and recently we did the greatest in
high-tech equipment of every7 sort. Unfortunately, we finally realized that no nation is able to keep any
product or service as a proprietary thing forever. We, of course, will keep doing what we did in the past,
even if on a diminishing scale.

The search is on now for the next big avenue to open up and be a winner across the world - with
America latching onto it and becoming pre-eminent in this field. I do not pretend to know the answers of
the future. I do know that we must start thinking and asking questions. Especially now, while our
automobiles, airplanes, high-tech and others are still selling decently. Let's not wait for the boat to sink
before we put on the life preservers and call another ship to pick us up.

Half the world (possibly three and one-half billion people) are lagging behind in wealth and
development. Maybe we could turn the "Golden Rule" into real gold! The lack of credit and payment
schedules impede emerging countries, and peoples, from forging ahead and growing to their natural
potential.

No Gifts! No Grants! No Favors!

A new banking system must be thought out to include these 3 Vi billion people. But almost all the
banking rules of the western, wealthy nations would have to be changed or forgotten and a set of new
rules brought out. For instance, An ideal foreign client - who wishes credit and a loan - is working for a
small country's bureau that, because of poor resources, is usually two or three month's late in paying
(heir employees' salaries. The client needs special consideration and some kind of a flexible banking plan
lo cover these problems. Many share this problem.

For a better example, look at our American West. A farmer needed a hand plow and a horse to
start his business. Then, he needed some small cash to buy animals and lumber or other things. As his
work progressed, then a tractor and barns were necessary. His future plan included a bigger house or
more land - on credit, of course. The point is, he needed bank money to start small and he always needed
more bank money as he grew and progressed. The farmer/rancher knew he had to make the payments -
with interest included - and, if he failed, his future was inoperable. (He was a "dead duck".)

Suggested Theoretic Banking Policy for This New Plan:

A consortium of U.S. Banks comes together, as an independent entity, with their stock being sold
to investors in the amount/percentage they desired.

Next, the new banking committee would research and send out feelers and people to many
thousands of small towns, cities, and Third-World Communities to see local people there who are already
dealing in money, lending and associated transactions. Large western countries with degraded
neighborhoods may also be included in this special plan. These local money people everywhere would be
offered a special monetary program. They could become a partial branch of the syndicate but still be a
franchisee sole-owner of their small business.

Using local business people wherever you find them will eliminate most of the usual bias against
race and strict religious practices found in depressed areas. The new, small amounts of capital he will
receive will depend on his/her integrity and perseverance. As these many thousands of small banking
entities grow, so will the amounts of money lent out increase. However, the interest and expenses will
always be governed by stringent rules from the main banking stock syndicate.

If human nature is true to course, the person doing business from a motor scooter will have their
sights set on buying a truck as the business improves. He/she may also dream of buying a house in town
later when his/her two sons and a daughter help them expand the business — on credit, of course - and
also with the same banking franchisee who helped them grow during the tough first years.

This is, of course, an over-simplified version of a complex, problematic, international search for a new trillion dollar yearly market source that possibly could guarantee long periods of proprietary
continuity.
