House reconciliation bill risks job losses higher energy bills in SD / Public News Service

House reconciliation bill risks job losses higher energy bills in SD / Public News Service | Industry 411 - Waste Management | Scoop.it
A new analysis of what Congressional lawmakers have dubbed the One Big Beautiful Bill Act found it would eliminate thousands of jobs in South Dakota and slow economic growth. The bill's current language repeals multiple federal policies, funding programs and tax credits meant to boost American clean energy and manufacturing. Daniel O'Brien, senior modeling analyst for the nonpartisan think tank Energy Innovation, said South Dakota could lose as many as 1,600 jobs by 2030 as funding is diverted to jobs in the coal, oil and gas industries.

How are killers created?

How are killers created? | Industry 411 - Waste Management | Scoop.it
Dear Friends and Patriots,

I keep communicating my concerns for our immediate future. You who read my words know I’ve long been concerned over escalations of violence and the prospect of it all getting out of control and resulting in a civil war none of us can escape. Many might scoff at the idea of enough lunatic people to produce such a scenario. I want to offer you something to think about that might change your mind. I want to tell you how killers are created, and then point you to what you’re seeing on many streets of America today.

The Sludge Sisters

The Sludge Sisters | Industry 411 - Waste Management | Scoop.it
Throughout the ages, Jews have been the targets of genocidal forces both large and small, educated and ignorant, liberal and conservative, pagan and religious.

Other small sects and religions have never inspired the particular psychotic animus that Jews have because they never threatened the larger populace as Jews have with blazing green-eyed jealousy – the most powerful emotion of the human species. In fact, Proverb 14 states: "A heart at peace gives life to the body, but envy makes the bones rot."

The transgender follies––more madness from the Left

The transgender follies––more madness from the Left | Industry 411 - Waste Management | Scoop.it
In 2021, the satire site Babylon Bee released a short video about a motorcyclist who identifies as a bicyclist and proceeds to set a world cycling record. The 5 1/2-minute spoofβ€”viewable belowβ€”is titled "Switching Gears: The Norm Hiccup Story." It pokes fun at today's transgender movement.



It should be obvious to the viewer that this clever, well-acted spoof is a compelling metaphor for the transgenderism craze, whereby confused Gen Z youth have been made to believe they were born in the wrong bodyβ€”that is, in a body of the wrong genderβ€”and will never be happy unless they can "switch gears" and reverse their gender.
