Awoke very early to go to Payson. The rain fell from Heaven last night and the morning was blessed with a wonderful sunrise. Kadizzle wandered to the big house to fire the cannon. Sunshine on the mountains and cliffs made some great pictures. Hopefully the forest will be opened and the hikes, bike rides, and adventures can be resumed.
OK, that was the good news. As Kadizzle awoke this morning he lay in bed thinking about the incredible waste in this country. Many times driving down the highway a train could be seen moving along the tracks. On that train were a couple hundred tanks. Each of those military tanks cost well over a million dollars. So that was a trainload of schools, houses, and other things that could have improved life for humans. The amount we have wasted is in the trillions. Now if you want to pop your eyes out of your head visit the plane grave yard near Tucson, Arizona. There you will see 54 billion dollars worth of tax money rusting in the desert. What could you do with 54 billion dollars?
History is replete with human insanity. First the pyramids, then the cathedrals, what next? We are going to Mars while people on Earth starve.
