COMMENTS ON MEN AND THINGS
By SPECTATOR
We Americans are opposed to Socialism and Communism;
we hold in abhorrence drastic police powers in times of
peace; we resent snooping by the Federal Government at
all times; we don't take kindly to snooping by any author
ity. Now then: Although we talk a lot about equality
among men we are growing farther away from equality.
Let us see: In all the Federal power projects the whole
plan was palmed off on the people by various little tidbits
that remind me of the mess of pottage which was the price
for Esau’s inheritance. Do you know the little crumb or su
gar til that won our support of the Federal scheme? It was
the promise to make farmers and municipalities preferred
customers.
I am interested in farming in quite a substantial degree
but I can see no reason for me to slur over my principles
in order to get Government-financed electricity, or any
thing else.
If the Government has the right to deal in electricity why
does it not sell shoes, clothing, milk, automobiles, gasoline,
oil and lumber?
My electricity power bill is comparatively a small item in
the cost of living. Most families spend quite a bit more for
gasoline than for electricity.
A citizen who has no connection with electric power as
a business has made a study of the Tennessee Valley Auth
ority, the much discussed TVA.
Hear what he says:
“Socialism Destroys—The Story of TVA.
Texans or Floridians would kick like steers, justifiably so,
if they were taxed to build roads in New Jersey, Iowa, Cali
fornia or other States.
Yet the taxpayers of these States have to pay annual
Federal taxes for the Tennessee Valley Authority that brings
not one penny return to them—because it was federally fi
nanced program and has to be financed yearly by residents
of all 48 States in the Union because it does not earn its own
way.
