Dude. Take ahold of yourself. Your post is laughable. We could save money by not studying anything. We can start with something you like, military training and military colleges.
Oh yes, that's right: because when Liberals want something, always default to the Military. Everything will be fine as long as the Military suffers the consequences for our poor spending habits.
Look I'm not arguing about policy here or the efficacy of trade agreements, I'm just saying you can't act like the US is not significantly contributing to the problem because it's other countries that are doing it when the US companies manufacture in these other countries and the US buys their stuff. It's like when the Capitol City is all like "District 12 sucks they have all these environmental problems", but Capitol City makes District 12 manufacture all the crap and then fight in the Hunger Games.
I get that. But if I were you, I wouldn't expect this to be fixed with even one Presidency. It might take two or three administrations before we start seeing change in this country. I have hope that Trump can lay the groundwork for companies to invest HERE in the US, which HOPEFULLY will lead to the future of manufacturing being here in the US. Where we can have jobs and proper safety and environmental controls.
Right. Which is why we needed to start in 2001, when Republicans stopped the whole process of evolution toward a better treaty by making the government studying it illegal.
You do realize that it was CONGRESS (you know...both sides) who stopped the whole process, right? And you do realize that DEMOCRATS controlled the Senate at the time, right? This whole "blame Republicans for everything" rhetoric is getting real old.
Well, I mean that IS what the liberals do. If they can't or don't blame then they resort to the labeling.
This thread makes me want to take out my 2 mpg truck and travel 1,200 miles and toss burning cigarette butts out the window.
Just get a Lambo. Jeremy Clarkson got 6 miles to the gallon in one once. That way, you can be rich AND polluting at the same time! Liberals hate both of those things!
Nonsense like this is why these threads die on the vine. "Democrats killed the Kyoto treaty." Whatever you say, dudes. Another thread which lapses into only conservatives posting, congratulating each other.
Let's say you're right. Bush and the Republicans didn't delay the process by killing Kyoto. The Democrats had a majority, so they killed it. Right. Gore would have been no different from Bush, because an ice statue says so. Okay. But that doesn't change something. After Kyoto died, Republicans made it illegal for the government to study it and find the budget numbers. Even if Kyoto was a bad treaty, which it wasn't, there should have been a process of evolving toward a better treaty. The process stopped dead in its tracks. To now say that it will take several presidencies is a big duh. That was true then, too. But Republicans want to play games till we're practically dying of thirst in the desert, when it will cost 100 times as much to solve it 10 times faster. Let me guess your next move. "A couple of conservative Democrats voted with Republicans to make studies illegal, so it was bipartisan. So we should continue not finding the numbers."
Actually, the next move will be, "Anyone who believes in climate change is a rascist left wing whacko who has been drinking the koolade of lies from the left wing media". The "left wing media" is the default excuse of the Right for everything they don't agree with or can't excuse in any other way......
Christ, you still aren't GETTING this. The inaction is a GOVERNMENT problem. The ENTIRE government; from State Governments to the Federal Government. It's a GOVERNMENT problem. We've known about climate change for almost a fucking century, in some form or another. This has nothing to do with partisan politics (BOTH sides playing it doesn't help). It has EVERYTHING to do with the GOVERNMENT as a whole. Stop looking at party politics and look at the bigger picture. And the same could be said on a world stage, because other governments aren't doing anything about this either, and there's a LOT more of them than are ones whom are making a difference. It's easier and FAR cheaper not to do anything than to spend Billions on something that few people understand. This has nothing to do with Democrats or Republicans. It's a GOVERNMENT problem; a government that is cheap, wasteful, and selective. Get that through your goddamn head.
