Here is Mr Meekes, a staunch underdog who worked hard his whole life to provide for his family and retire on his own plot of heaven (a small ranch in rural Wyoming). He never imagined the nightmare to strike after he achieved his goal. Soon, his entire water supply from wells became completely contaminated with deadly chemicals. His neighbors joined him in seeking answers to their dilemmas, while asking for clean water or for the oil company responsible to buy them out. The big oil corporations plus some politicians did everything to hush him up without HELPING him out in any way. Money talks. "How dare you destroy our country's enormous economic future!" Mr. Meekes didn't set out to go up against the giants of industry. He just wanted restitution (only fair treatment). Yet, this unlikely hero brought our attention to the question of "How much loss and destruction to our country's natural resources, animals and people are we willing to pay for certain industry profits?" Good food for thought. I felt really sad and upset what he lost in order to do what is RIGHT. NO GOOD DEED GOES UNPUNISHED certainly applied here.
