They want the land; they’ve always wanted it. Now, they’re stealing it out from underneath us—just taking it—with some high stakes, high-tech colonialism.

Two miles west of Waymart, Pennsylvania, where the DRBC will hold two of its hearings on a proposed fracking ban later this month, is the border between the Delaware and Susquehanna River basins. Those on this, the Delaware side, of what might as well as be the Berlin Wall for us, are seeing a theft of our natural resources and economic futures by gentry class colonialists who would prefer our homeland be their playland.

Indeed, land, not water, is what this proposed fracking ban is all about. Those who imagine themselves our betters and desire to protect our land from us so they can enjoy it, have invented the idea fracking represents a threat to water as a way to grab it. They know fracking will stimulate economic development, raise property values and make our land less available for their play and they want it for little or nothing. So, fracking must be stopped. The DRBC is their chosen tool for stopping it and it has created a fracking fairy tale to justify its proposed ban.
