Protect our parks, invest in renewable energy, end the war

To: Rep. Steube, Sen. Scott, Sen. Moody

From: A verified voter in North Fort Myers, FL

July 17

The depth of my disgust knows no bounds. Stop ruining our National Parks, Monuments, and Forests. The recent actions to slash the parks budget, nearly eliminating the forestry division, and firing their workforce is disgusting. That land belongs to the people for our enjoyment and enrichment. Not for private entities to exploit and profiteer from. What is wrong with you? If we do not protect this land, it will be gone forever. It cannot be undone. And for what? So we can harvest it for oil and resources to make bombs? The energy crisis we are in is of YOUR own making. You allowed one man to embroil us in another forever war for oil. Do you think the American populace is stupid? That we can't see that Iran, Venezuela, Greenland is all over oil? That the destruction of our landscape at home is to mitigate this? Instead investing the money we're wasting on making skeletons of innocent people in the middle east and creating veterans you refuse to actually serve, maybe invest that money into the American people instead? Invest in solar and wind energy. It can be done with American manufacturing jobs, introduces skilled labor, improves our security posture by reducing reliance on foreign oil, and you can help our farmers as well. Stop paying them to grow corn for ethanol and instead pay them to run a solar or wind farm. It's easy math. You disgust me grow a spine. Do better. Care for our land and our people. Trump's ego and pocket book isn't worth the destruction of our nation.
