Re: Global Warming -

Of course there is dispute! I dispute it... and I agree with you that we should discuss methods to reduce pollution. However we have vastly different motivations.

I say let the climate do whatever it is going to do. The simple and *technical* truth is that there is very little we can do to alter it.

1) The absolute last thing we need is a carbon tax!!! The government has caused the problem, and giving politicians more $$$ to fix something they do not understand is a recipe for disaster.

2) Dual Currency Model? -- I dunno either. sounds like mumbo-jumbo.

3) Cap-n-Trade... has some merit. Unfortunately it's participants frequently do so only to avoid the tax penalties (see item 1 above)

If you would, please chime in and look at the ZECFE-WWYP thread.

 

Even though I'm in the solar business, and saying the things I say are frequently seen as being "againgt my own good interests", the evidence I've seen has me thoroughly convinced that trying to fight global warming has no real chance of accomplishing it's goal or any other real effect...

... except reducing pollution. And that is a really good reason to conserve!!!
