The role of government is to provide things that are in the public interest and for the public good - not to make a profit or to return an investment.
i find this notion that public spending is illegitimate bizarre as a matter of economics but totally legible as a statement of moral economy. and as per any strict system of morality, the punishment is part of the appeal. they are punishing the american people for believing in the public good.

One of the great things about #EmergencyManagement is that I get to do all sorts of things...right now I'm the #ProjectManager for a document migration, consolidation, and cleanup project that will make our electronic workspace more useable and future friendly. #Greysky #AllHazards

A cargo ship carrying toxic sodium cyanide hit a tanker transporting jet fuel for the US military while travelling full speed. Both ships are on fire and rescuers have been ordered back 2 miles for pollution
Fresh footage, from firefighting efforts earlier, show smoke pluming from the containership

40% of global shipping is dedicated to moving fossil fuels around. Switch to clean energy and that's a lot less pollution/fewer maritime accidents. And no more oil spills.

Following reports of a #collision and #fire between a chemical tanker and a cargo ship in the #NorthSea off the coast of #Yorkshire.
For those of us with #port facilities in our areas of responsibility, this is a good time to review your plans for a similar event. #EmergencyManagement

Here's what I'm struggling with when it comes to the current regime in the USA - how do we remove politics from personal identity so that people are more comfortable changing their political views? You are NOT republican, you VOTED republican...you can change your political vote in any election!

My hometown has just invested $7 million in public transit and urban forestry - investments that will help mitigate the effects of the #ClimateCrisis. It's also an investment in resilience against #Disasters and is good #EmergencyManagement. #Canada #SaintJohn #NewBrunswick
