I think we're in the take-the-money-and-run stage of the economy. So the banks may go under, but the bankers, who make the policy, clean up.

We go forward with our heads held high, but look back and remember where we come from.

You have a choice. Either you can have more oil, or more clean water. Fracking is not good for the water supply.

The one sure mark of a con, though, is the promise of free money.
