I hear this often so I'll ask: Is your paranoia about Climate Science strickly based on some people being able to make money from it or is it the science? Are people not supposed to make money ONLY in this field for it to be "valid" in your eyes?
Not when they are making that money from a total scam. The left always screams about money being transferred from the poor to the rich, what do you think carbon credits would have done?
Paranoia is too strong a word, very leery of people who use real issues to further their own agenda would be better.
The US is doing something about pollution and global warming, here, in our own country. If another country wants to do something about themselves then fine, but I will fight any attempt to get the US to pay for their problems. We simply don't have the money.
Aren't you doing the same thing by ignoring the fact that the US has been doing something for over 40 years now? And the left doesn't help their own cause much. Allowing the EPA to label a naturally occurring gas, one that is essential for all life on the planet, as a pollutant only pushes people away.
To put it another way: Firefighters have determined the house is on fire but there is a group of people stopping the fire from being put out because they want to know how much the chief gets or because they suspect the Firefighters want to control fire itself.
When asked "how?" the crowd goes: You cant deny that someone wants to benefit from putting out this fire.
Like...what?
Horrible analogy. The damage from a fire is quick and can be obviously viewed by anyone who isn't blind. And putting out the fire won't hurt the business down the road, carbon tax credits would have.
