I wonder what the reaction really is from committed vegans/vegetarians in the West?

If soy products are becoming expensive/scarce, if they are really eating local in the Northern winter, just what are they eating? I also wonder just how they are keeping warm, keeping their plumbing from freezing and getting from one place to another.

Does anyone know the answers?

Biofuel is a good source for the internal combustion engine, but not ethanol from corn, soybeans, etc.

Electricity from abundant sources like wind and solar are not being used wisely at this point in time. Fuel cells will be the norm in about 25 yrs. We can make ethanol from a combination of sources like sugar cane, sugar beets, and algae, but, we do not have enough land for one of those to be a single source.

Ya gotta remember, OPEC, Big Oil, automakers, banking, defense industry, and Chicom money, etc., in election war chests of DC and state leaders have made the politicoho's obliged to vote in the contributors' best ineterests. Because we have no laws in place that will not allow elected Congressmen, Senators, Presidents and Vice-Presidents to not keep the monies in their re-election coffers, we have the best government money can buy.

It would make sense to allow elected officials to only remove that money they personally have put in those funds after they leave office. All other monies would go their respected party's general fund or charity(s) of choice.

IMHO, that is government sponsored bribery and corruption, PERIOD!!
