Thought of the Day
The past 17 years of flat global temperatures are creating a big
chill for lots of global warming doom-premised industries. Those
experiencing cold sweats must certainly include legions of climate
scientists who have come to depend upon the many tens of billions of
taxpayer bucks for studies that would have little demand without a big
crisis for the public to worry about. And that amount pales in
comparison with the hundreds of $ billions we spend on generous
subsidies, lost tax revenues and inflated consumer costs for otherwise
non-competitive “green energy” industries which depend upon those scary
climate reports, or the insane economic penalties imposed upon all
segments through EPA’s climate-premised regulatory rampage.
Cooler temperatures blow ill-winds for government bureaucrats, crony-capitalist rent- seekers, and other hucksters whose ambitions depend upon hot air. Even Western Europe, the cradle of carbon-caused climate craziness and cap-and-trade corruption, is feeling a cold draft.
