Water: Fracking sucks more than you think!

July 7, 2011 By TXsharon

When I was sixteen, I announced my intention to buy a new VW Beetle for a monthly payment of only $125. That’s when I first learned about associated costs. It was several years before I could finally afford a new, red, VW Beetle and all the associated costs.

Did you think that industry was telling you the whole story about the amount of water they use to frack a natural gas well?

    Do you think that the communities that impose water restrictions on us peasants during this drought will restrict the industry? Doubtful, we will all suffer while they suck up all our drinking water.

    The difference is, you using water doesn't line the politicians pocketbooks with campaign contributions by industry special interests.

    Come and watch fracking in action at Pleasant Ridge at I-20 going on now. Leave kids at home and bring a mask!! if you don’t like the fumes in your house and in your neighborhood, remember which city council members got us into the mess we are in now. Their names will suck for years to come!

      I’ll pass on the invitation, Matt. BTDT. But I would love video and pictures to post.
