Dermo I see that you agree with the principal of the 'Big Lie', and I'm wondering your limits on that belief is. If the truth is secondary, what
other lies would you have us believe for our own benefit?
I also see that you advocate a global tax and regulation of all activity, to save the planet. I wonder, what tithe do you demand for the 5 pounds of
CO2 i emit through resperation per day? And if exceed my carbon limits?
Since we both admit AWG is a fraud, what limits would you place upon me based on this admitted fraud, for my own good?
please explain this to me quickly, running this comp and chewing gum simutaniously is chewing up my alloted carbon rations.
Firstly.. I don't agree with "Global Warming" but do agree with less pollution.
Secondly.. "The big lie" rarely if ever pushes my view of economic damage as a result of peak oil, simply because it cant.. so to say that I have
bought 'The Big Lie' is wrong. What is "The Big Lie" to you?
Thirdly.. You seem to be assuming that I have not educated myself in as much regarding every aspect of global governance, global warming,
authoritarianism, geopolitical strategies etc as much as possible and have come to realistic and somewhat "out there to conspiracy theorists"
conclusions regarding many conspiracies that can actually serve mankind as a whole in a non detrimental fashion.
Finally.. sometimes groups of people are just too complacent, stupid or greedy to take action themselves and have to be pushed.
How would i promote carbon taxes? I would add carbon taxes to higher emission cars and lower overall taxes on lower emission cars.. very simple, it
gets us off oil quicker while polluting less.. and I did give a generic example of this offsetting already...
That kind of system can be used in a myriad of ways... we have it on Road Tax and Vehicle Registration Tax in Ireland already.. its basically carbon
usage penalties while giving you bonus's for buying the greenest technologies in order to cut "down your emissions"..cough cough.. cut down your
oil usage.
So.. now you can answer a few questions for me.. Where did I mention carbon rations? Are you just trying to be smart? You're not pulling it off
I take it you don't think a push to get us off Oil before the peaking triple's the price and crashes our economies is a good idea.. why?
