Those vac trucks aren't the typical honey bucket trucks. You case in point says it all.
If there's a will there's a way. Yet the product is just laying there.
What would your reaction be if that was yours laying there?
What people aren't seeing is the cash grab. Oops sorry about that, got it covered thankfully. Who pays, it's not the owners of the rail.
Right in front of our face, those in charge aren't doing crap about the chaos. Thier creating it by ignoring it.
OOPS, so sorry we'll get an adjuster over there and see you in court.
OK, so who doo YOU think pays for this then?
One other thing that I notice in the meme thread, as well as this one, is the thought that every crisis needs to have some interaction with DC.
A train derailed in Ohio, what's Biden dooing about it?
Had this been a few years ago, would y'all be asking what Trump's been dooing in all his free time?
You [should] want those that are responsible to pay (and they likely will - if you leave it be for a few minutes) but yet at every catastrophe, where is the G-men in black suits when I want him?
Not OK for the Feds to aid in Ukraine, but you expect them to clean up in isle #3 in Ohio?
The Feds are our combined entity for dealing with the world. The states are [s'posed to be] the states.
At every other turn, and whether it is more and more these days, or maybe it's just as we age that we realize more and more, but the Feds take our $, and then offer it back to the states if we jump through enough fire rings. Quit asking for more from the Feds, and work on making it so that we don't give them anything that we should be getting back!
This isn't a conspiracy, this is decades and decades of ever softer people expecting more from others.
They are, and have been more and more willing year after year to trade in a little more liberties for more and more securities.
And then bitch that someone else is holding more and more of the cards.
This is our (collective - 50 states worth) of Congress and House representatives over years and years, looking to "get more" for their constituents.
These big fires and floods and tornadoes and hurricane's. Does this really need to be the Feds territory? Is there any real reason for you (I sure don't) expect Mr. G Man to come to your rescue? Have you not made any provisions? Have you no insurance? Did you decide to take the risk w/o either of these? Why does some poor guy in Omaha need to bankroll your issues - wherever that may be? You can't clean up your own Schidt? You need Obama to fly over and then stop in and muck up a whole bloody day that should have been used for clean-up, but now it is a media opp for him? And he's going to give you X amount of your own dollars for clean-up? Why?
Y'all wunna fuss about Big Gov, until a cloudy day comes along....
Figger out which side you wunna play on, and stay there.
This (mostly the meme thread) is just as bad as following any amount of news = where one side is bitching about the other side dooing something, only the rolls were on the other shoe a hand full of years ago on the same subject! It's all for talking heads to bobble about. What a friggin circus!
The Meme folks will make anything. Doo y'all ever think about the implications of what it is saying or promoting?
Many times y'all are posting memes that are agginst what you should be wanting or expecting, yet your desire to bitch or be heard is more overpowering than considering what these news events and whatnot are actually saying.
Just think about it a bit...
