NATURAL RESOURCES - WHO GETS NET BENEFIT

LIKE SOME OF YOU I THINK TOMORROW So you know where I'm talking from – I'm retired, living on a modest income, I now write and act full time; my acting supplement my income but all of that and more goes to my writing. And then there's the usual emergency that everyone gets. Maybe knowing a little about my position will explain what I say next. With the squabbling between the Republicans and Democrats – the Right saying LESS GOVERNMENT SPENDING and the Left saying MORE TAX FOR THE RICH – there is no foreseeable solution to the shortage of jobs, no foreseeable solution to the rising cost of education, no foreseeable solution to the increasing income disparity between groups, no foreseeable solution to the destructive concentration of wealth. If you're waiting for me to offer a foreseeable solution you can go back to milking your duck. If you're still here let me throw out something to think about. I say from the start that I'm a capitalist, I like creating ways to make money, I like the notion of private property, I like to live well and always seeking ways to live well'er. A great deal of America's wealth – all humans – comes from natural resources: land, water, oil, gas, wood, coal, chemicals, precious metal, pharmaceuticals, you can add more. We really need to look at the way benefit is derive from these natural resources. FIRST: our government usually sells or rents the right to exploit a resource. Our government usually participates in the cost of exploitation. SECOND: a private company either buys of rents or both that resource. THIRD: the net benefit from the exploitation of the natural resource is taken by the private company. If you look real close at this picture something ain't right. FIRST: our government uses TAX DOLLARS to help a PRIVATE COMPANY exploit a resource. SECOND: Americans, THROUGH TAXES, help a PRIVATE COMPANY exploit a resource. THIRD: a PRIVATE COMPAY walks away with a LION SHARE of THE NET BENEFIT. If this picture still looks okay to you – go back to milking your duck. An alternative to your duck is to start thinking of ways for AMERICANS TO FULLY PARTICIPATE IN THE NET BENEFIT OF ALL NATURAL (PUBLIC) RESOURCES.
