Disgusting

 

[kyzr]

Why is that bad? Doesn't the GAO monitor expenses?

 

[Thevolunteerwino]

Unlimited funds not accountable to the budget?
Defined use of funds is broadly specified.
Cant figure out why that would be bad.

That's only in the House. Any Budget still needs to be passed in the Senate.

Covid hysteria will be folded seamlessly into climate hysteria.

This should not be passed by the house. The Senate arguement is not valid

You do know those bills expired with the old Congressional term, right?

That would be bad because the American taxpayer does not have unlimited funds and those that they have shouldn't be spent on bullshit or given away on a whim.

Not to concerned with the earlier tripe, but they are voting themselves a $500,000 Dollare expense account to be used as they please for the 117th Congress? If funding bills are supposed to originate in the House, agreed in the Senate and signed by the president, this seems unlikely in that more deliberative body, and an unnecessary wasteful slush fund as far as I am concerned.

Actually we have no funds, we are continually running in debt. The nation now runs on FIAT money.

Hey dickhead! They have not been approved YET!

FYI, Nasty Pelousy announced these "rules" last week!

 

[watchingfromafar]

Climate change is not the immediate threat facing us today.

To understand why, you need to review the history of our planet.

Our planet was not created by the development of our solar system. Earth came from elsewhere.

As earth, a molten core covered in ice 5.4 miles thick passes by our sun, the suns gravity grabbed earth slinging it into an elliptical orbit, an orbit we are still in today with its axis parallel to the suns.

At least it started out that way but now scientists have discovered that an asteroid hit the earth leaving our planet unlivable except for the smallest of creatures and a 23.5-degree tilt.

Today, the Earth's axis is tilted 23.5 degrees from the plane of its orbit around the sun. During a cycle that averages about 40,000 years, the tilt of the axis varies between 22.1 and 24.5 degrees.
NASA: Climate Change and Global Warming

The planets tilt is causing the climate changes, not burning oil.

At least five major ice ages have occurred throughout Earth's history: the earliest was over 2 billion years ago, and the most recent one began approximately 3 million years ago and continues today (yes, we live in an ice age!). Currently, we are in a warm interglacial that began about 11,000 years ago

Glad You Asked: Ice Ages – What are they and what causes them? - Utah Geological Survey

An ice age is a long interval of time (millions to tens of millions of years) when global temperatures are relatively cold and large areas of the Earth are covered by continental ice sheets and alpine glaciers. Within an ice age are multiple shorter-term periods of warmer temperatures when...

tinyurl.com

Scientists & geologists have determined that our planet has gone through four (4) major climate changes or ice retreats leaving behind a scared surface as the ice above slides around over the core melting under the suns glare.

There is nothing we can do to slow down this change. It is inevitable so adapt or do not, the choice is yours alone to make.

Having said all the above what we are doing to combat this climate change is what is saving us; .,.,.,.,.even though this has nothing to do with climate.

We are ending the use of fossil fuels; thinking it is saving our planet when in fact fossil fuels are finite. It has been determined that if we continue to consume fossil fuels at the rate we are consuming today, consumers will suck up and burn what known reserves the world has in 30-40 years.

Knowing the above

Save the climate. What do we do--?
Prepare for the end of oil, what do we do-?

It turns out we do the same for both, two birds with one stone.
Switching to electric power to drive our economies while getting off of oil is the right path forward.

The earth is unfolding as it should.

Or so it seems to me -

climate change is about using FEAR to control and fleece the citizens.
