OK, dotgov, if you want, lets look at your theory in detail.

1) Chemtrails are real. Even twenty years ago when I was a young child my father would take me to air shows to see the Blue Angels, which would spray
colorful trails across the sky. This was twenty years ago, folks. Back then you could even rent a plane to spray messages to your loved one. Now flip
forward to twenty years later. During the past twenty years we have experienced a technological advancement like no other during humanity. This
advancement isn't solely about bigger TV's and smaller cell phones, this advancement also includes government technology and aspirations.
You started this paragraph with the proposition that chemtrails are real, but you have offered no proof in support of that proposition. (BTW, I am
reasonably certain that you can still hire a sky writer if you wanted to, but it probably cost a lot more now then it did 20 years ago.
How do you know that chemtrails are real? Just because you see an airplane making a persistent contrail across the sky is not proof. As you can see
from my post above with the B-17s, persistent contrails have been around for a long time.
Again I ask the question:
Where is your proof that chemtrails are real?
2) I live in an area where the local commerce depends on two things, crops and the military. The food supply and the military are the two
utmost things that a government protects, with its citizens a close third (sad but true).
Your ideas on government priorities seems rather simplistic to me. A government is made up of people just like you and me. and people being people,
they will seek to protect what important to them.
Are you implying that this program is targeted to your area specifically?
Have you ever flown accros the U.S.? The majority of this country is crop land or range. What about the rest of the U.S.
How do chemtrails help the military?
3) The final result of the spraying is an additional, lower cloud cover. This is what leads to my hypothesis.
Now it is true that there is a link between
contrails and cloud cover. However that does not prove the existence of “chemtrails.”
Furthermore, these contrails are the results of normal air traffic activity. They are a side effect of the fact that someone needs to fly from
Schenectady, NY to Barstow, CA. They are not deliberately made.
Hypothesis The government is spraying to protect us, and our crops, from the harmful UV rays that resulted from the current
deterioration of our atmosphere. By producing an additional and fake cloud cover they are ensuring that our crops and our citizens do not
fry.
I have a couple of issues with this.
- The status of any deterioration of the atmosphere has not been thoroughly proven. I am not saying that it doesn’t exist, just that we really
don’t know for sure what is going on.
- Is U.V. radiation a problem in your area?
- What is the degree of benefit of the “fake cloud cover?” How much U.V. radiation is blocked?
- What about those days when there is no cloud cover (“fake” or real)? Isn’t the U.V. radiation present on those days also?
Arguing that chemtrails do not exist is like saying mosquito sprayers do not exist. Sure, they are most likely spraying chemicals, but
chemicals exist in all areas of our daily lives. Our water supply, our food supply, our air, our cigarettes all contain chemicals in one form or
another. Some of our daily actions include inhaling/eating/drinking pathogenic substances. All species produce waste in one form or another, whether
it be chemical or biological. I am suggesting that perhaps, just maybe, the government is trying to do something about the effects of ozone
depletion.
What do any of these things have to do with your proposal that chemtrails exist?
Now if by chemtrails you mean typical jet engine combustion products like water, CO2,
and an handful of trace compounds, then yes, I will agree with you. These things to exist and are released from the airplanes flying overhead. They
are also released by cars trucks, etc. This is an entirely different issue and I would be more than happy to discuss it with you.
Now, I want you to stop and think about the scale of what you are suggesting.
OK, let's say the government (by this I take it that you mean just the U.S.) is flying thousands of airplanes all day long over the entire U.S.A.
This means thousands of pilots, mechanics, and other ground support personell have to be involved, not to mention the hundreds of bases. Airfields,
etc.
Who are these people?
Where are these planes located?
How much money and material does it take to fly these “Spray flights.”
Where is this money coming from?
What are these chemicals that they are spraying?
What happens to these chemicals in the environment?
