What would it take to convince you that Cap and Trade is an attempt to redistribute America’s wealth to third world nations and nothing more? That C02 is not dangerous to the atmosphere at all and is, in fact, just 3 teratonnes of the atmosphere. To add to that, there is this fact: carbon dioxide is released to the atmosphere by a variety of natural sources, and over 95% of total CO2 emissions would occur even if humans were not present on Earth.
You see, C02 has become a tool – a tool for stealing America’s wealth. That’s what it is and that’s all it is. It’s not dangerous at all. In fact, we couldn’t live without it. But America has lots of coal and oil so they had to figure some way for us to not use what we have so we could send tons of our money overseas and BUY that very same thing. And that’s what’s behind all this – bleeding off American’s wealth.
Global warming, like global cooling before it, is total nonsense.
So, what would it take to convince you that there is NOTHING wrong with coal (which we have a lot of) or oil (which we also have plenty of, including shale)?
What would it take to convince you that a snake oil salesman, who says one thing but does another, is snookering you? A politician who doesn’t see America the way you do, a politician who is more interested in spreading your wealth around the world than he is helping you and your family to live a better life?
Look folks, here’s the truth: what you are hearing is all propaganda meant to separate you from your money. Green is absolute hype. Internationalists are using “green” to spread America’s wealth around the world.
Your President likes to point to Spain as a country that makes “green” work lol. Well he’d better check with the Spanish because they have found out that for every green job they create, they lose two others. That’s a net LOSS of jobs, not a gain. The idea that millions of new jobs are going to be created by this “green” propaganda is just nonsense.
And remember this too. Someone is spending millions of dollars putting all those “green” messages on television that you see. And no one is putting up that much money if they don’t intend to get more back in return. So understand this: the groups and industries that plan to make a ton of money off ‘green’ legislation, if it passes, are the ones paying for those ads. There is indeed, a financial method to their madness. They want your money!!!
You are hearing a lot about so-called alternative fuels. Well sorry folks, but they are largely illusory. They really don’t exist and they won’t exist in big numbers for decades to come.
Wind power is about 7% of our energy today and won’t be more than 15% in the next two decades. Solar will be less than that. Electric cars and hybrids have their own problems. Let’s take a moment to look at these two ideas.
When you think of electric power as being ‘green’, remember this: batteries for electric cars are hazardous to create and hazardous to dispose of. They are not really environmentally friendly. Plus, these batters have to be replaced about every 4-5 years at a cost of around $7,000.00. So if you buy an electric car, you can look forward to that.
Then there is this problem: we produce most of our electricity in America by burning coal. Put a lot of electric cars (or hybrids) on the road and they all come home around 5:00 PM and have to be recharged. So you plug them all in and what do you have? You have an electric shortage is what you have. You will need to build more electric plants to generate the needed electricity to recharge all those batteries. And to generate that electricity, we burn COAL. You see, nothing is free and this green business is all about making money. (Nuclear energy might be a solution. It’s environmentally friendly and it’s reasonable cheap BUT it is nuclear and it can be very dangerous both is use and in disposing of spent fuel rods. Do the benefits outweigh the risks? I don’t know you can answer that. What I will say is that nuclear energy can replace coal and oil in time if we choose to do it. So, should we???)
Environmentalist czar Al Gore had 2 million dollars five years ago. Thanks to his work on the environment – working hard for you – he now has 100 million dollars. Not a bad return for all that hard work, Al. (Why is it these folks that work so hard to help the common man get so rich doing it???)
Now we learn if they pass Cap and Trade, which Al favors, Al’s wealth will go from 100 million dollars to 1 BILLION dollars. Think that might be behind his drive top get it passed? As I have said before, always follow the money!
And what about our Democratic Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi?
Did you know she also has a big investment in wind farms? Whose wind farms? Why Boone T. Picken’s wind farms, that’s whose. So Cap and Trade will make Boone rich, but it will also make Nancy rich. Nice to help so many people.
See, everyone has their hand out. The UN wants 780 BILLION dollars from us to punish us for what we have done to the world with industrialization. Are they asking China for any money? You remember China, the country building a new coal fired electricity plant ever two weeks? No, they aren’t. Why not? Because China would laugh in their face just as they joke privately about Al Gore, the American idiot.
Environmentalists are now beyond crazy, they are super dangerous. Why anyone would listen to these crackpots is beyond me. They should all be in padded cells. Especially the ones in Oregon who ruined a complete county with their absolute nonsense protecting the spotted owl thereby costing thousands of loggers their livelihood and forcing us to buy our lumber from Canada where I guess they don’t care as much about spotted owls. Their workers have jobs – ours do not.
Obama leads this pack of tax dodgers and inept public servants. His appointees have all had trouble with their taxes or they are all rather dumb. Still they now lead our country. Makes me nervous to just think about it.
Understand the numbers folks. You hear about these new technologies like they are around the corner and all we have to do is go get them. Well that’s garbage. Look at the number of vehicles on our roads today. The cars and trucks that have combustion engines that needs gasoline, which comes from refining oil. Here are the numbers. Study them.
Today there are over 250,000,000 (million) cars and trucks on our highways that use gasoline. So let’s assume the EV’s and Hybrids are VERY successful and over the next decade they sell 10 MILLION of them (they only wish). Considering that over that decade immigration would grow by 10 million and that the new immigrant would want cars but couldn’t afford those new high priced alternative fuel cars, what do you think they will drive? They will drive the old combustion engine cars. So the number of alternative fuel cars may rise by 10 million, but so will the number of combustion engine cars on the highways and so the net will be no change over the next decade. Or over the next two decades for that matter. It’s just not that easy.
The people pushing these alternative fuel vehicles are in it to get rich and if Obama doesn’t know that, he is very naïve and being taken advantage of. It just isn’t happening. Coal and oil are going to be with us for the foreseeable future. Like it or not.
Think back. Do you remember in 1975 when a large group of scientists were so sure we were headed for a century of GLOBALl COOLING that they warned the world it was going to get so cold we would see starvation and death. And how cold did it get? And how many of died from the cold?
Oops, they were wrong.
Then in the late nineties, the same scientists (political scientists I think) decided it was GLOBAL WARMING that was going to kill us all. They were wrong about the cooling – damn – but now they were damn sure they were right about the warming.
And it would be terrible with floods and failing crops and thirst everywhere. Not for weeks or month or years, but for a CENTURY!
But something happened. The earth stopped warming about the mid-nineties and once again they had egg on their faces. Will they never learn? Wasn’t this the same crowd that was once so sure the world was flat or that the Sun revolved around the Earth? None of that turned out to be true either.
So now they have dumped Global Cooling and Global Warming and settled on Climate Change. Maybe that will work for them. Climate change caused by CO2 and C03 and maybe C04, we aren’t quite sure. But whatever it is, it’s really dangerous and we need to spend an awful lot of money to save ourselves. And who is to get all that money – hmmm – THEM?
Yep climate change is going to kill us although we had it every year for about a million years. It seems to me our climate changed regularly for all those years. But they lost the global warming and they lost the global cooling and they lost the hole in the ozone lair so they need something so we have CLIMATE CHANGE.
But not worldwide climate change because if it were worldwide it would be the same all over the world which is what worldwide means and this is not that uniform. In our world, some places get hot and some get cold and usually at the same time.
To me, that’s just ‘weather’ without the need for climate change.
Weather is regional and that explains why it’s hot there and cool here and vice versa. Just last week (May 2009) in Philadelphia, we had weather in the 90’s, a terrible hot spell. This week we have weather in the 70’s, quite cold and rainy. It just changed inside of ten days. (Damn they may be right: the climate does change!)
But wait: don’t we have four seasons? And hasn’t it always been cold some places when other places were warm on the planet? Haven’t we always had this weather extreme? Yes, I think so. So today’s weather is exactly what it has always been. And why not since man does not influence weather – the sun and water vapor and cosmic ray bombardments influence weather. And though you aren’t hearing much about it, sunspot activity has been very sparse the past few years. That usually indicates a switch to COOLING. The current warning from people that are supposed to know is if sunspot activity doesn’t pick up by 2011, we are in for a very long period of extremely cold weather. Maybe a hundred years worth of it.
Are all of these government scientists really stupid or do they have a political agenda with all these changing warnings? An agenda to steal money from America by scaring us into stopping the production of what we have a lot of, oil and coal, and then spending hundreds of billions of dollars buying those same products from overseas. What sense does that make?
Listen up folks: If oil and coal truly are really so ultra damaging to our environment, why are we buying it? We are we spending hundreds of billions of American dollars to encourage people overseas to drill for oil and coal to sell it to us??? Think about it.
If it’s that bad for the environment, why buy it at all and if we have to buy it because we need it, then why not drill our own and keep the money here? These other countries are now getting rich selling us oil and gas while doing the very thing we won’t allow our own countrymen to do which is drill for it. Does this make sense to you? It doesn’t to me.
But it’s not intended to make sense; it’s intended to make MONEY. It’s all about playing Uncle Sugar as a sucker one more time. Sending OUR money overseas to THEM. That’s what Obama wants and that’s what he is getting – a redistribution of America’s wealth to 3rd world nations through the good offices of the United Nations (choke).
That’s all this is: money going from us to them. In time it will bankrupt us and destroy capitalism and set America back fifty years. And destroy our economy in the process. But that’s the plan. Smack America back in line. That’s what they want.
You don’t believe me? Go back and read it again and see who is making sense.
See who is telling the truth.
By the way, the government has now decided to fund student loans itself so everyone can go to college? How interesting. Let’s think this one through.
Where is this new money to come from? After all, someone has to pay. So who will it be? The government is already in debt a trillion or more dollars and that is just going up. We are now indebted to pay enormous amounts in interest because we BORROWED that money from CHINA. So who is going to pay for these new tuition loans? China has already said they have had damn near enough of American’s debt, thank you. No one else wants it. So where is this money to come from?
Try to think this through which Obama’s team never seems to do. Once upon a time, corporations would hire high school grads. Then if they had a college graduate, they paid him more. Now we want all our kids to have college degrees? Okay then what will happen. All the companies will just want college graduates for the jobs they used to fill with high school graduates. And they will pay them the same money.
What good will this do? It is one thing to encourage the very best and brightest among us but quite another to say everyone should go to college. No, they should not.
All that will do is saturate the country with unemployed college graduates and lower the amount of money companies will pay to hire them. It’s flat out stupid. What we do need and can use if more trade schools. Schools for those who aren’t the top students so they too can earn a living. No society can operate with an oversupply either at the top or the bottom. You need a healthy mix of both to survive.
I’m telling you; anyone who voted for this man and these people has to have a screw loose. All that glitters is not gold and President Obama glitters but he sure isn’t gold.
The man smiles and then talks out of both sides of his mouth.
Adage: “The most likeable snake-oil salesman sells the most snake-oil.”
Amen, suckers.
“Green” will not net an increase of jobs, it will net a decrease of jobs. Any fool can tell that. How did this Administration miss that???
The President keeps saying it will create 3 million new jobs. Well that’s nonsense but whatever it creates it will lose even more. It’s a scam.
