    Try again, every argument you have is ludicrous, why don't you step up and explain what your policies are exactly? Bring manufacturing back to the US because it's doing so well on the environment? Immediate rise in CO2 production because it is not adequately regulated in America either. Do nothing until we have heard the opinion of every last naysayer? Good luck with that. As for your "reduce environmental regulations to save the environment" argument, that takes the biscuit as the stupidest thing I have heard this year. Congratulations.

    FALSE FALSE FALSE! All that needs done is adjusting import taxes to reflect the true cost, your house of strawmen must be very flammable, fortunatley it takes less than a wolf to blow it down.

    You don't need to have someone onboard for a plan that makes sense, ever heard of leading by example? China are going to be selling the backwater US green tech at this rate because partisans you are supporting with your "do nothing listen to every halfwitted opinion" tactic refuse to believe in the need for change. I'm not focusing on politics, just the science, which says pretty much irrefutably "burning fossil fuels is a problem and we're going to run out anyway, so lets change asap".

    Did you just get modded insightful for basically saying "some people have different opinions so let's sit down and listen to them all"? Do you think that would have worked with the moon landings? You could have sat all day listening to people discussing how terrified they were of setting the cheese on fire or you could launch a fucking rocket and go there because that's what the scientists say is right. Which technique will prove more successful?

    The tax burden now is as high as the economy will sustain (a bit higher actually, as we see businesses flee the US, and the only real growth is from inflation.)

    https://ibeconomics.wordpress.com/2011/04/ Other sources seem to indicate it as it historic lows, so maybe you're completely wrong. The only reason you see manufacturing leaving is because other countries have a slightly more lax attitude to slave labour. If it makes you feel better maybe you should campaign for that, at least you'd be being honest.

    How about instead of worrying about making weapons safe when it turns out you've armed the wrong guys (yet again) you instead consider not arming them in the first place? Revolutionary, I know.
