There is no point in any government in the world, if it is all about the sake of power.
Even today, I have been shocked at the record highs in places like Montana and North Dakota.
I hate to steal your favourite line, but that’s not the point.
The government can hardly be held responsible for the weather. Even with the best of intentions, there are going to be power outages, item shortages at local markets, and so on. Don’t you think it makes sense to be prepared for these things? You live in an hurricane susceptible to hurricanes. Don’t you stock up on things like water and non-perishable food when one is on the way?

My son invited me to join the FB page for our town recently. It's not an official page and is sort of like not being able to look away from a train wreck. It's unintentionally pretty funny.
One day last week people started posting wanting to know who else's power was out and in what part of town. Some guy came on and said that Biden was the cause of the power outages, that it's a way to push the "Climate Change Agenda of the liberals." I suppose the badass thunderstorm that had just rolled through had nothing to do with the power outages or Biden had sent the storm to cause the outages to little ole Wylie to upset the conservatives. smh - people endlessly prove how damn stupid they are.
I'm your huckleberry.
