I started this blog because Facebook censored one of my posts. This post was a relatively benign rant against what I termed "bad capitalism". Take a look at this picture of the Berkeley Pit in Butte Montana. This mile in diameter sludge pit(some might call it toxic cesspool) was created after the Atlantic Richfield company abandoned their strip mining operation at this site. After turning off the pumps the pit began filling up with ground water which was caused by the numerous mine shaft's that perforate the area in, around and under the pit. Ultimately, the "villainous" EPA stepped and forced ARCO(now a subsidiary of BP) to show some corporate responsibility and start monitoring the pit.
I guess that Facebook found my comments "too provokative"(misspelling intentional). If I can't speak my mind on Blogger, I'll create my own website if I have to.
So long for now.
