R.E. Wright PG, LLC is deeply steeped in solving earth resources, geotechnical, and environmental issues. Maintaining integrity and environmental objectivity has enabled us to serve commercial, industrial, governmental, and regulatory entities without conflict. The company is committed to the solution of earth resources problems of a very broad spectrum. Yet, it has become alarmingly apparent that we, as a culture, need to be focused on the re-growth and restoration of our great wealth-generating society that has prevailed within the United States of America from its inception until about 1962. Since that time, our country has become “green,” “greener,” and “greenest,” to the point that we have abandoned our wealth-generating mentality for one that is no longer generating wealth by mining, manufacturing, and working the earth. Instead, commercial and industrial enterprises have moved offshore and out of the country to escape the high cost of living here in freedom and comfort of our great nation. The wealth that was generated prior to the environmental movement has been gradually spent, as we now have globally redistributed it and have exchanged the strength of a great industrial nation for one dealing with legal and financial issues without proper regard for the regulatory restrictions we have allowed to be placed upon mining, manufacturing, and working the earth. National governmental officials continue to be elected that have a preponderant tendency to ignore the wants and the needs of their constituents. We now find ourselves allowing our ever-growing governments (from the national to the local level) to continue to bury us in the debt being created by printing money to cover the multitude of services “given back” to citizens in return for our tax dollars. Little new wealth is being created in the United States; and the wealth created is heavily outweighed by new debt. This is readily apparent in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania at the present time, as the development of natural gas from the Marcellus Shale Formation is being burdened with difficult issues presented by governmental and quasi-governmental regulatory agencies. And, within the Commonwealth itself, there is a growing demand for government to begin taxing the gas industry, even before production, occurs. This is an example of the Federal, State, and Local regulatory agencies bringing significant costs to bear on major industries, such as: natural gas production, the aggregate business, the mining business, and many large manufacturing businesses before profit ever begins to occur. Nevertheless, there should be no questions remaining to unjustly impede natural resource development. Science has advanced to the point where nearly all things are possible; and, yet, such procedures as high-level radioactive waste disposal need to be implemented and improved both technically and socially to the degree required to solve such necessary issues, while pressing on to begin anew to create wealth within our country. If it costs too much to do it here in the United States, we need to make it more profitable by analysis, lobbying, making change, and cost-effective methods employed by government oversight. We, “the people” have allowed the environmental movement, which began in 1962 and grew slowly, to progress to the point of unaffordability. Environmental issues, such as global warming, driven by fear, have no basis in fact for which the United States of America should feel financially responsible to the extent of the plus $80 billion spent to date on studying the issue. As a nation, we have a major infrastructural reconstruction need staring us in the face, which will be paid for also by printing money that has only the waning face of the United States to back it up. Our United States of America depends upon us to step up to the plate and begin hitting singles. Our growing world is dependent upon it, and we must continue on or become an “also-ran” society. |
