It's Just Sad

Think about it
I was driving around the proposed refinery site the other day and thought to myself why on earth would anybody want to tear up this beautiful land and turn it in to a god-awful refinery? When you see farmers working in the fields getting in the last of the corn and beans you just have to shake your head in wonder.For those of you that haven’t been to the area lately, just take a drive and look at the wonderful sights. You know that if this clean air permit is approved and Hyperion starts construction, the first thing they are going to do is to tear down all buildings, farms, and trees. They are going to make that area look like a wasteland. And for what, some archaic outdated oil refinery. For someone who has never built a refinery, this statement about being state of the art is nothing but bull. 3000 acres of beautiful farmland turned into a parking lot. What a shame. What more can I say? There aren’t words to describe what is going to happen next. It’s just sad
