Liberty has never come from the government. Liberty has always come from the subjects of government. The history of liberty is the history of resistance. The history of liberty is a history of the limitation of governmental power, not the increase of it --Woodrow Wilson

Cold in Sweden

At 23.59.56 (EST) last night Barsebäck nuclear power plant was shutdown. The shutdown is part of the plan to end all use of nuclear power in Sweden due to a horrible referendum in the 70's where people had three(?) choices Yes, No and Well...
Of course in tradition with the Swedish way of life, people chose well in the referendum.
The green party has pushed real hard for this to happen even though the public opinion has turned to favour keeping the nuclear power, back in the 70's people believed that alternative sources of energy would come soon but now we can see that the only option we have to keep us warm in the wintertime is to import electricity from Poland and Russia and I can promise you they don't give a rats ass about the environment, it's all energy from coalplants or unsafe nuclear plants like the Ignalina in Lithuania.

So what are we to do now next winter if we don't have our own sources of energy? Will the green party go out and cut down trees so I can be warm? Because I will not freeze and I would rather have the nuclear energy than the Brown coal energy we are stuck with now. I must say thank you to the hippies of the 70's and the muppets of the Green party in Sweden, you have finally made it, our world will be a little more polluted from today.

Sincerely
Mr SIlence Dogood
