US Economy, part 2

Don't understand why people can't think for themselves. Sheep, sheep, sheep, hey?

Man, this is something, hey?

Yep, he's Mr. Self-Aware.

  btw, there are many more who think like me but just so happen to not want to put up with the backlash of you "smart" guys

No, you don't think, you regurgitate whatever Fox tells you.

I had an outstanding science teacher in 7th and 8th grade and he made watching weather into a 50 year hobby for me. Five or six years ago I thought climate change was 100% a scam and I will say that my stance was moderated to still too early to tell, but I'm fine throwing nickels out the car window to get more data.

Eh, the problem is that this has been a scientifically known issue for 4 decades, but one side has put great effort into discrediting it. Pretending it wasn't real was very useful in consolidating money and power.

By the time the evidence is obvious enough to convince you, when even more of the country is ablaze, more and more people are dying of the heat, when insurance becomes impossible to afford due to extreme weather losses, when mass migration due to climate change becomes overwhelming (it is already happening here and in Europe), it will be too late.

It may already be too late, there is a very real chance we've already hit the tipping point. And we have the fuckwits at the petroleum companies and people like Rupert Murdoch, who profited from discrediting climate change, to blame.

Kinda like Jonestown, aina?

Kinda like Jonestown, aina?

Yeah, the cult of Trump is ALOT like Jonestown.  For once, you're correct

I'm really trying to be nice and not ban people.  But if ya'll keep it up I'll just start banning people until the start of hoops season.
