    Economies today are being destroyed by too high a level of taxation; and also by the hidden taxation coming from interest rates below the level of inflation.

    Interest rates are kept low because debt is so large. It is ironic that because of low interest and high taxation it is necessary to pump money into the economy, which in turn requires even higher debt.

    If the global warming LIE persists and the pure fraud of carbon credits survive I will be disgusted at the gullibility of the general public.
    Ice cores show that historically carbon dioxide levels have been at many times the current levels and did NOT produce a significant greenhouse effect instability in temperature.
    every numerical prediction made by the so-called current anthropogenic CO2 model more than twenty years ago has failed; so much so that they now only make estimates that are far removed into the future.
    Time and again, the “experts” have been caught rigging actual temperature data.
    First the University of East Anglia over a decade ago, then NASA, a few years ago, and most recently Australia earlier this year.

    As long as we have Mitch McConnell (R) from Kentucky, who is a crony RINO, and Chuck Schumer (D) from New York, who is ideologically opposed to anything the Republicans want to pass, nothing will happen.

      Trump needs to fire Chio his wife………that might get his attention…..

      Didnt we just have a vote on Sanctioning Russia,Iran and N Korea?
      All but 3? voted for it?

      The issue is much deeper than McConell and Schumer.

      Given our government’s track record, nothing is an improvement.

        It will take a miracle just for them to keep from making things worse…that is for us little people, not for them.

          Every president has been worse than his predecessor since Kennedy.
          Imagine the one after Trump.

          Maybe we should be asking ourselves how many more presidents we can survive.

      And yet satellite data indicates ocean levels have dropped for last two years.
      There is an inconsistency here.

      Either the temperature data is wrong or the satellite data is.

        cfs, it depends where you are.
        There are spots the sea level has dropped thats true, but that is temporary.
        There are varyables to consider.

        I posted a link explaining further down.

        So yes, nasa says sea levels are dropping, and they also say sea levels are rising.

    Its the thermometers Mathew, they have special mercury in them to provide a specific reading for all those studies.

    The temperature is not increasing, the water level is not rising ( no matter what Louisiana or anyone else says) and the ice is not melting.
    Heck, all those glaciers are actually growing.

    Faith is so much better than science, always has been.
    Personally I prefer my own eyes.
    But thats just me.

    Next thing your gonna tell me is the long headed aliens dont exist, sheesh.
    To be honust I take aliens being real on faith, lol

      You obviously are uninformed and misinformed, b. No surprise.

    Aug 12, 2017 12:13 PM

    No doubt our masters will go to the global warming/carbon credits fraud to keep this
    whole Neo-Feudal Casino Gulag Plantation Fractured Reserve Debt Based economic outhouse from burning to the ground.

    And YOU will pay one way or another, slave. For sure there will be special taxes and requirements and if you don’t comply you’ll be whipped by the IRS among others just like you get whipped now by the IRS for the failure to pick Barack’s Blue Cross Anthem or a similar plantation product instead of cotton.

    Does anyone here disagree with this?

      Aug 12, 2017 12:04 PM

      More people are paying the penalty on their IRS form than opting for Obamacare.

      The “bite” comes when they have an emergency that sends them to the hospital, as well as a conscience to actually pay the bill(s) when they come due.

      If something similar was to happen with “carbon credits”, American citizens would opt out of that too. Unless the carbon tax was attached to your IRS form again, or to your property taxes.

      They can’t tax what you don’t earn, and some people would rather endure a lower standard of living than pay into the maw of the dragon any more of their life-blood.

        Aug 12, 2017 12:09 PM

        Hell, for many they can pay through the nose for Bammycare and still go bankrupt because the premiums, deductibles and co-insurance charges are so high.

      I dont think global warming has to do with keeping the system going, thats digital currency.

      The banks dont need a global warming “fraud” to take the money.
      The Clintons dont.
      It could be about control, thats true, but they have other methods, like income tax.

        Aug 12, 2017 12:08 PM

        Well, Al Gore does…and he and his white shoe boy friends sure are making a pretty penny off that climate pimping…

        Aug 12, 2017 12:15 PM

        And don’t forget that the global warming fraud gives our masters far greater control over our lives and an excuse to take even more of our hard earned money to enrich themselves and their cronies.

        If you want to see an example just look at Colliefonria (as the Gropenator calls it). Colliefornians pay about 15 cents a gallon more for gas and diesel (soon to go up a lot more) plus way more for electricity, nat gas, etc. than people in other states due to the carbon tax system there.

        And what do the politicians do with all the loot? Use it as their slush funds to reward themselves and their cronies, implement boondoggles (for example the bullet train to nowhere) and pay for more “programs” to regulate and control the serfs even more.

          Aug 12, 2017 12:17 PM

          And when you factor in the other taxes on gas and diesel plus the regulations Collieforians pay about 75 cents or more a gallon than people in other states. And that is going to be worse come Fall as they have big tax increases on gas and diesel. Plus every year the carbon tax will go up.

    Aug 12, 2017 12:17 PM

    Our economic system needs what they have been trying to avoid for almost ninety years. We need a depression so that the garbage can go to the landfill instead of the recycling plant. DT

    Aug 12, 2017 12:23 PM

    If our masters can get through an “infrastructure program” most of what it will do is run up the debt and generate loads of even more mal-investment, not to mention crony-crapitalism and other corruption.

    Sure, it might keep the house of cards standing a while longer but it will just be adding more cards to the house and setup an even bigger fall.

      One big con game……..

      Aug 12, 2017 12:06 PM

      How do we find a new invention (free energy would be my ideal) that wouldn’t be shipped off to China for ultra-cheap manufacture within 10 seconds of being presented to a Board of Directors for a technological manufacturing company in the USA? How do we keep the money inside the US, for US citizens, and not sub-contracted outside the borders instantaneously?

    Encroaching salt water can pollute our fresh water supplies and damage fresh-water dependent ecosystems. It’s not just fresh water rivers and lakes that are at risk – our aquifers, or natural underground water storage, are at risk of filling with salt water as the ocean encroaches on the land above them.

    Sea level rise is the increasing of the average global sea level. It doesn’t mean that seas are higher by the same amount everywhere. In fact, in some areas, such as the west coast of the US, sea level has actually dropped slightly … for now. But before we get into that, let’s understand the main contributors to sea level rise:

    Melting mountain glaciers – Glaciers are bodies of ice on land that are constantly moving, carving paths through mountains and rock. As glaciers melt, the runoff flows into the oceans, raising their levels.
    Melting polar ice caps – Think of our north and south polar regions. At both locations, we have ice on land (“land ice”) and ice floating in the ocean (“sea ice”). Melting sea ice, much like ice cubes melting in a drink, does not affect the level of the oceans. Melting land ice, however, contributes to about one third of sea level rise.
    Thermal expansion of water – Consider that our oceans absorb over 90 percent of the heat trapped by greenhouse gasses in Earth’s atmosphere. When water heats up, its molecules become more energetic, causing the water to expand and take up more room, so that accounts for about a third of sea level rise.

    You may be asking yourself, how do we know sea levels are rising? Well, a couple of ways. First, for the past 23 years we have been using data from several NASA satellites to constantly measure sea surface height around the globe

    hmmmm, I wonder which nasa you guys have been reading?
    I guess there is more than 1 nasa.

    You guys are funny.

    Actually its normal.
    Once we have a belief its almost impossible to change it.

    Thats why truth is always a shock to people.

    The free will argument is a good one, when we are told something (almost anything) when we are children, we tend to believe it the rest of our lives.

      Aug 13, 2017 13:38 PM

      Speak for yourself, b. I have a long history of completely changing my beliefs. It’s what a few of us do because we value truth more than we fear it. You, on the other hand, are obviously self-censoring and don’t even know it.

          That makes sense, b. James Corbett (former socialist) and Tom Woods (former neocon) are also not mere mortals. 😉

          With few exceptions, those who hold the same beliefs as their daddies and granddaddies haven’t done much thinking.
