I think this line's mostly filler.

It's nice that many people have moved on to the next excuse not to do anything, but plenty of people still think (or at least claim) we aren't warming, and plenty more think or claim that it's a natural solar cycle. Trump himself said it's a Chinese hoax, and then said it wasn't a hoax, but it wasn't manmade and would change back again. And then said that he just didn't want to spend money on it. Senator Inhofe brought a snowball into the Senate in February of 2015, as evidence that it was unseasonably cold.
At least "the free market will fix it" isn't technically science denial. Though I'm not sure how a person can "go nuclear unreservedly"; it seems like that would be just as much a government action as any other.

I think he was hoping to make a snowflake cry with that statement about nukes.

But I suspect that he has an image of "liberals" that would be very bizarre to an outside observer.

Put $35 of gas in a tank. How many actually move the car? $4. What do the other $31 do? Contribute to global warming. Somehow that company, when not required by regulations, simply stops addressing the problem - stops innovating. (As a result it constantly looses market share to other innovative - patriotic American - companies.) So where is this free market that is innovating? Ironically only where government regulations are encouraged and implemented in venues where honesty exists and global warming really is a man made problem. Where people believe in facts. And ignore preaching by religious extremists and communist - ie Senator Inhofe. |

And also believe Snowflake has tears. After all, Inhofe saw those tears. Again, we must believe him. He is an expert - and also smarter than the Generals. |

"So why are GM cars only getting bigger - consuming more fuel - not doing anything to address the problem? "
Tw, do you own stock in ford or something?

What is this?
At a supposition, it's a statement that history ended in 1972. A moment before the gas crisis. The remainder of the post, while very backward-looking, is not as objectionable.

The Kung Flu has helped the air quality, also it might stay a little better since 25% of the small business won't reopen, They ran out of money, lost lease, can't afford stock, etc.

I did when that stock was providing a 250% ROI. Review old posts where those reason for profits (and how anyone else could have also profited) were defined - before they happened.
I would not buy a Ford. It has made major improvements since 2000 - when all Ford products were crap. But it still is not good enough. Meanwhile, back then I could not collect enough money to buy enough Ford stock. Facts and numbers made obvious the future ROI. Profits were significantly higher than I expected. |
