The glaring misinterpretation that they make, and they can not help themselves, is that there is only a black or white choice related to choosing Capitalism or Communism. They apparently love Communism (I wonder whether their web site is available in either Russia or China?). The successful solution is of course is being able to sort out what the most viable model for governance is and finding that constantly changing shade of gray that allows the model to deliver security and freedom for its people.

Pure Capitalism is just as dark, deadly and evil as pure Communism is, The true believers at Salon are unable, for what ever reason, to determine what is exceptional (the American Constitution and what is unique about it, with all of its warts and abuses) and what is Utopian.

Our system is THE worst system, except for all others.

I wrote this response yesterday in a conversation with a person Amalgam, posting on the Brian Leher radio show arguing for the accepted media / politically driven state of the climate who has obediently has graduated to the next terrifying climate term “Climate Chaos!”

“Whether it be axis tilt, cosmic rays (which by the way have been scientifically established as being the main driver in the formation of cloud cover in our atmosphere which has a direct effect on temperature is just forgotten about and dismissed by most. Look it up.), CO2 proceeding or preceding temperature change, geo engineering, El Nino, La Nina, cow flatulence, chemtrails, whether climate readings have been accurately recorded or replaced with computer model information, whether “scientists” have conspired to skew data to closer match projections, etc, etc.

As you can see I can go blow for blow with you on the subject and what we will really be accomplishing is just creating a confusing conversation and that in the end may well be the desired effect.

What has been created is a conversation by politically allied scientists and politicians who participate in a now 3rd of a trillion dollar environmental / “climate change” (what ever the flavor of the moment terminology is today depending on its perceived effectiveness is) industry. That Amalgam is a recipe not for objective science but political agenda which translates into political control.

So if the conversation is about curbing pollution through the application of existing technology and the development of new techniques and technologies to that end, I say YES.

But if you are asking me to trust what now has become the insistence of our politicians (think about that) I have to say NO.

The first rule of politics, and make no mistake about it that’s what we are talking about here: It must be default assumed that anything an empowerd politician, aspiring politician or any government says must be assumed to be a lie and through your own due diligence walk it back to where you can reasonably establish truth to be.

That Amalgam is something everyone needs to understand on this subject and many, many more.”
