You should acquaint yourself with some history, which you probably didn't learn at your big-government sponsored school. John James Cowperthwaite was the Financial Secreterary of Hong Kong from 1961 to 1971. His "positive non-interventionism became the focus of his economic policy as Financial Secretary. He refused to collect economic statistics to avoid officials meddling in the economy.
Commentators have credited his management of the economy of Hong Kong as a leading example of how small government encourages growth" according to Wikipedia.
This is what formed the modern Hong Kong into what it is despite the preceding 150 years of British rule.

Well, I copy a mechanic quite well these days and have been copying plumbers for ages, yet none of them have ever tried to bill be for copying their work. So why should musicians charge me for copying their work?
Before some anonymous coward yells some shill-inspired-drivel about the dangers of silver.... the US Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA is part of the Department of Defense, created in 1999) confirmed the authenticity of this research.
So, will "medical science" aka big pharma and their marketing arm, the FDA, "allow" this potential cure, or will they just let thousands die, because "we have not cure" and won't have for a long time? There are too many african anyway, aren't there? is what they seem to be saying by their actions.
The white rhinoceros is one of the biggest success stories in environmental conservation. It was down to about 200 individuals by the late 19th century. Following the imposition of hunting restrictions, populations have rebounded to over 20,000 individuals and it was de-listed as an endangered species under CITES in 1995; limited hunting is now allowed to control population growth.
That is not true.
The white rhino was saved due to the efforts of a few visionaries who convinced the South African government and Swaziland, if I recall correctly, to allow the commercial breeding of white rhino (which means for profit, in case you don't understand economics 101). The fact that people, including Mericuns, could hunt them for large sums of money, meant that there was money to protect them and breed them. That's what saved them, not some misguided utopian green agenda.
Has anyone ever wondered about the fact that some people just don't want to follow a certain career path? Why are there so few male kindergarten teachers for instance? Are we now going to force a lot of young men to become kindergarten teachers to make up the quotas?
This whole drive is so rediculous. I'm not saying the we should not allow women or men into certain positions like in days of old, but that we simply let demand sort out the number. For crying out loud, has the world gone mad??
The idea that small government is a substitute for good governance is a koch dream. Small government means less oversight.
That's exactly where your are wrong! Small government means it only does what it has been given explicit permission for by the constitution. That means getting out of education, finance (yes, that includes the illegal federal reserve), canning the war or drugs and terror and a whole lot more.
3. South African's, by virtue of the way they grow up, are much better equiped to deal with the challenges today, it seems, than their US counterparts.
4. Even in the old dark days of apartheid, South Africa led the world in nuclear reactor research on a shoestring budget, pioneering the whole pebble-bed reactor concept, and building 7 atomic bombs right under the noses of the world, which gives you a good indication of the South African mentality: "Don't tell us something cannot be done".
There are a great deal more items that can be added to this list, but I doubt it will help you much...
But maybe Mr Coward wasn't born yet at the time and he's still not able to find South Africa on a world map. (Hint: It's somewhere south of Mexico)
If you believe the AGW / Climate change drivel you can neither read graphs, nor read properly, nor spot errors and fakery when it is done in plain sight.
The more shouting and burn-him-at-the-stake rants, the more proof is being provided of the above, ie. lack of intelligence.
Except it's not 97% of the world's climate scientists. It's only 0.3%!
" In Science and Education in August 2013, for example, David R. Legates (a professor of geography at the University of Delaware and former director of its Center for Climatic Research) and three coauthors reviewed the same papers as did Mr. Cook and found "only 41 papers—0.3 percent of all 11,944 abstracts or 1.0 percent of the 4,014 expressing an opinion, and not 97.1 percent—had been found to endorse" the claim that human activity is causing most of the current warming. Elsewhere, climate scientists including Craig Idso, Nicola Scafetta, Nir J. Shaviv and Nils- Axel Morner, whose research questions the alleged consensus, protested that Mr. Cook ignored or misrepresented their work" - From here
In the case of Michael Mann, there is, since he is a megalomaniac delusionary fraudster, bent on world domination. We need to every single email he's ever sent or received.
Pollution, on the other hand, is a real problem that needs to be addresses and in China (and London) and what I do agree with is that creating incentives to reduce that is not a bad thing. However, basing that on a massive fraud like "Climate Change", is indefensible.
In that light, dogma now says that humans are causing global warming, the science is "settled" in that sense. Evolution is also at the level of dogma.
Oh my goodness. For I moment it seemed like you have a grasp on science and how it works, but then you added this proof of ignorance and removed all doubt of your state of mind...

If someone wants to deny rising sea levels please sell them flat land by the shoreline. They can then deny there all they want.

Denial about the fear you and your fellow weaklings have to stand up against megalomanic bullies like Michael Mann.

Of course, the fact that this probably means the species is doing well, has passing these loons like a ship in the night.

Yeh? Well why do services like NoiseTrade exist then? Apart from making good music, Indie Bands need free exposure more than anything.
Hmmm... and why are they not using their own research and solution?

3 per day for 3 years = 3285. Then, if they still have to wear them at night, it's 1095 for the next three years. How on earth do you get to 8000?
Just incase someone questions my qualifications: We have raised 4 kids. None of them are used for growing mushrooms now.

See this and that.

FTFY
... to the vast majority now?
I think we need a citation for your assertion. And, no, you can't use the debunked "97% of climate scientist agree" piece.
You're right.
Global Warming / Climate Change / Whatever-you-want-to-call-it is a load of BS. Fortunately more and more people are waking up to the fact!
Biggest science fraud ever?. The "evidence" is all made up. Almost entirely.
Pollution, on the other hand, is a real problem that needs to be addresses and in China (and London) and what I do agree with is that creating incentives to reduce that is not a bad thing. However, basing that on a massive fraud like "Climate Change", is indefensible.
Dang! And I can't even edit that messy post!
