Message | Mr. Speaker, (1) As a Free and Fair Republic, we cannot allow government bureaucrats to dictate the price of energy in the market. The price of energy in the market should be set by the FREE MARKET. (2) We wholeheartedly object to the formation of nuclear power because it poses a risk to our national security. What if a terrorist blew up a nuclear power plant??? It would have the effect of an atomic bomb. Where are we going to discard the millions of tons of nuclear waste??? What about the effects of cancer rates when communities are built near a nuclear power plant??? The CWFP yields the balance of our time. |

Message | Mr Speaker, (1) The free market can fail in terms of pricing of energy, people simply cannot afford some of the extortionist prices set by energy companies. (2) Your hypothetical theories are exaggerated and simply ridiculous, nuclear power is an alternative energy source which has a long life use, and your claims it affects health are built on the media culture of exaggeration which most of your points seem to be built on! |
