WHY DO LIBERALS PUSH THE FALSE MANMADE GLOBAL TEMP CRISIS

 

In my earlier post titled “GLOBAL WARMING, IS CO2 THE VILLIAN?” I detailed the scientific facts illustrating absurdity of claiming humans are causing climate change. To save you from having to go look it up here are the highlights.

1)      96.8% of the total CO2 in the atmosphere was there before mankind existed.

2)      CO2 only contributes 3.62% of the greenhouse gas effect

3)      Taken together the first two points show that only 1/10 of 1% of the greenhouse gas effect can fairly be blamed on man burning fossil fuels.

4)      Virtually all of the rest, 96%, of the greenhouse gas effect comes from water vapor.

5)      The earth heats up based on the fossil record about every 100,000 years because of orbital dynamics keeping us closer to the sun.

I learn all that I need to know about a celebrity or other public figure as soon as they make their first claim about mankind causing global warming. They either don’t know the truth or don’t care. So why is it that the liberals keep going back to a narrative that is demonstrably false? I fear that the reason is no more complicated than the ease with which the liberal voter can be swayed using “save the planet” rhetoric. If the goal of progressives is to control all means of production then it is necessary for them to control and or tax energy companies and a carbon tax would work to that end. Most voters believe what they hear repeated often enough in the media so the chant goes on even in the face of real scientific counter arguments. To see U.S. Senators take to the floor of the Senate in a made for TV stunt proclaiming the gravity of the global warming crisis and all about how evil the “deniers” are in our greed as we destroy the planet is just sad. Not one of them has the will to get the truth before they take to the podium. The coal industry and all of the jobs it supports is in their sights. I remember well how futile it was to argue with tree huggers about the real reason for the decline in numbers of the Northern spotted owl. A larger invasive species of owl was feasting on their little cousins as they took over the habitat. We all knew the truth but logging got the bad rap and a whole industry was virtually wiped out. If we raised the issue of the private property rights of the timber companies and their shareholders we were all vilified for our evil profit motive. It is hard to accept being labeled as evil for collecting a paycheck for ones time and effort. I believe that we have lost all sense of perspective on these topics. The very same people who want to save the planet by destroying our industry refuse to give up any of the goods produced by industry. The net result is that off shore companies make our products and we pay foreign people’s labor costs instead of making jobs here at home. If a company gives up and moves its jobs off shore to keep from going under the same liberal hacks that regulated the corporations until they had no choice will speak out against the practice.

When a politician gives government benefits to someone they must first have stolen the money from the taxpayer who earned it. Think about that for a moment and then think about how much money the government gives away every day. The government cannot make wealth it can only shift it from person to person. Do it long enough and you create a revolutionary atmosphere. The tyrants in Washington fear that they are getting close to the tipping point and they know that they cannot win if we as a population are armed.
