About the time the White Zombie started hitting the drag races at Portland International Raceway. Look it up (though that's a purpose-built electric car that has two totally different modes- cruise around town slowly, or dump a full 1000 KW/h battery pack into two 1000 horsepower motors in 3.6 seconds for a quarter mile speed burn).
Sorry, I was off by an order of magnitude. 20 billion. 30 months of domestic supply. Hard to believe there's anything still in Texas after a century of pumping.
Certainly according to the North Dakota National Guard, who recently had to stop harassing protesting Native Americans to deal with a Buffalo stampede.
My point isn't that technology marches on. My point is that we should be doing something to make those left behind feel like they're still a part of the country.
No, to get Mexico to decide to build the wall- before we invade. It's been clear for a number of years that Mexico is a failed state that needs invading, Trump's just trying to get them to build a wall first.
Take a look at the county-by-county map, and then contemplate the vast change technology has made in our lives in a short period. Some people have indeed been left behind. It is not fair of the new urban majority to disenfranchise people who live rural just because they're bigoted against living rural.

There are long term contracts?
Haven't had a salaried position in a while.
You really don't understand the reference? Roe V. Wade, when the United States embarked on genocide.
"assuming we don't decide to commit speciecide."
Too late, that started in 1973 and is accelerating.
What business are you in that still offers paid vacations? I haven't had a paid vacation since 1998.

For the rest, we have the capability now to build near perfect artificial environments.
MMMM...long pig.....
Not all winds flow south.

That's why you move to higher ground, away from the coasts, as a part of your personal adaptation.
Yes, that's one source of oil. I was also, as another poster rightly claimed- off by an order of magnitude. 20 billion barrels.....
Certainly according to the North Dakota National Guard, who recently had to stop harassing protesting Native Americans to deal with a Buffalo stampede.
They just discovered another 2 billion barrels today under Texas.
It is not deadly to stop using fossil fuels
Where do you think rain comes from? More ocean surface area, on a warmer planet, means MORE fresh water, not less.
Most Americans could survive a winter without food- and be far more efficient hunters when spring came around.
You are too late on climate change at any rate. The story is the same as it always was: Adapt or die.
I suggested that would have been the appropriate response to 9-11-2001. Somehow, others disagreed.
Oddly enough, yes. And very near the surface. So much so that the Maya used to center their cities near pools of the stuff.

Just as long as Mexico builds it and pays for it.

I think you misunderstand the purpose. The purpose is not to protect the border. The purpose is to scare Mexico into protecting the border.
I notice his list of SC Justice picks was removed from the website within 12 hours of him winning, as are any other pro-life points.
