The US is run by morons....

"Though the US is responsible for 25 per cent of the world's carbon emissions, the Bush administration has resolutely refused to enforce limits or else enter legally-binding international agreements to tackle climate change, saying such a move would damage the economy. Last month lawyers from the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) argued before the Supreme Court that the science on climate change was uncertain. They further argued that the agency was not empowered to act to curb emissions. " -Andrew Buncombe in Washington

Okay, and well... NYC, Miami, San Fransisco, and many other coastal cities (major ports for distribution of goods that help keep our already decrepit economy from falling apart completely) dissapearing underneath ocean won't hurt our economy how? Hm, lets think about the future a little. Oh wait, I forgot.. They're all wealthy, old, republicans who don't really care because no matter what happens... They have the money and power to stay on their nice island resorts and forget that the rest of our nation is really far behind in keeping up with the much more competitive nations.

And wasting trillions of dollars on our war effort to save a country that doesn't want to be saved isn't hurting our economy? Maybe if Bush and his administration pulled their heads out of their asses, they'd be able to see that not doing anything about global warming is actually hurting our economy much more than doing something about global warming. If American industries can't even sell their goods to nations such as China because we don't meet their CO2 standards I think you'd be able to see that our economy is already suffering, wouldn't you think so?

Of course writing this won't make a difference because the only people reading this are from Loudonville, the village of old, complacent, republicans, too stuck-up to realize they're fucking the rest of the village over. If you aren't the above, you are the child of the above, and probably don't have an opinion of your own anyways. No offense..
