And you can be       sure the Democrats won't allow a WHITES ONLY power company.

We got nearly all the work that they used to do at a factory       they closed in the South. Howcum? We get paid considerably more. And the       taxes here are sky high.        They told us that one of the biggest factors was RELIABLE electric power.        They could make money even with the higher expenses here but they were running       at a total loss every time the electric service failed at their factory in the       South.       >        > We pay more for electricity here, maybe double. It costs money to keep up       an aging infrastructure. I have no doubt that the electric service in the       Jackson suburbs will start falling apart in a couple of decades as more and       more old, overloaded        transformers start failing. Even WHITE PEOPLE won't be able to keep that crap       running forever.       >        > Chicago has been wired up since the days of Nikola Tesla. We've made a       commitment to keep it working, at least in most neighborhoods. Sometimes you       actually do get what you pay for.       >        > But that's my explanation. If I'm wrong, please set me straight.              Powerlines in a normal State versus Powerlines in crazy California.        www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/3785158/posts              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
