 I don't vote. Two reasons. First of all it's meaningless; this country was bought and sold a long time ago. The shit they shovel around every 4 years *pfff* doesn't mean a fucking thing. Secondly, I believe if you vote, you have no right to complain. People like to twist that around – they say, 'If you don't vote, you have no right to complain', but where's the logic in that? If you vote and you elect dishonest, incompetent people into office who screw everything up, you are responsible for what they have done. You caused the problem; you voted them in; you have no right to complain. I, on the other hand, who did not vote, who in fact did not even leave the house on election day, am in no way responsible for what these people have done and have every right to complain about the mess you created that I had nothing to do with.
  George Carlin

 Mutual funds, which are responsible for the retirement investments of millions of investors, should be at the forefront of investors encouraging companies to address global warming.

Getting these funds to vote in favor of resolutions to address global warming would make a tremendous difference for investors and the environment.

 I've said many a time that I think the Un-American Activities Committee in the House of Representatives was the most un-American thing in America!
  Harry S Truman

We cannot rely on oil companies to create cheaper and cleaner fuels. American oil companies like Exxon will never want us to use less oil.
