Poor Nuety and Bertrude, they think it is about freedom from government (aka patriotic freedom), never realizing it is about saving the Kochs money. Who to pity more? The greedy who think billions is not enough, or the suckers who support them for phoney reasons.

They are not only human versions of Lemmings, they actually pay for the priviledge.

Does anyone doubt anymore that the human race is essentially stupid? Well at least the brainwashed right wing segment is.

Three straight posts with nothing but argumentum ad hominem in them.

They try controlling the message Berton with those silly posts. It is what it is.

And what do you think Bertie's trying to do?

He even thinks he can intimidate people with his Latin Names for fallacies.

(Which might work better if he didn't have such a poor understanding of Logical Fallacies and how to apply them.) eek

More argumentum ad hominem from Brewster with childish name calling thrown in.

I understand Pat. It is all our resident liberals have to add(subtract) from the subject material.

Question. How much influence on reducing climate change could that money purchased if spent in that endeavor rather than fighting against such actions.
It would have a tremendous impact on the single biggest research project needed - High temperature semiconductors - if we could move electric power easily from the areas of biggest generating potential to the areas of greatest need, Electric cars, Heating, etc. would take over with the new supply of large quantities of extremely cheap, clean electric power.
Semiconductors or superconductors?
