  1. Read it slower, you missed the part where responders were prevented from working due to the exploding pieces.

    There is this thing called "reading comprehension" -- you REALLY need some practice at it. Look at where those claims came from, check out who stated them.

    America owes the rest of the world an apology. And, when Trump is done and we come to rebuild your tattered industries and feed your starving people, thank us.

    Corn subsidies are critical for US food security; crops are extremely inelastic goods and farming requires planning a year in advance for demand that won't exist until the end of that year's season. Just think about those relationships for a while and you'll understand why underestimating demand and planting less, and why planting barely enough to meet demand doesn't work either (hint: crops require particular temperature conditions to thrive, are exposed to blight and insects, etc).

  5. You're wrong, the Tesla did catch on fire and the remaining parts of the battery exploded violently.

    That's not context, that's called conspiracy theory.

    I miss hearing about Reagan, he made sense even though he had only been a movie star previously. Trump will be a poor quality photocopy if he even tries the job.

    That isn't from ***outside*** of the padded room of the root post; original research by amateur journalist conspiracy theorists is self-reinforcing not validated.

    Analysis and understanding requires context. That means education, not sound bites. Go to university and you'll see how shallow your current "truth" sources are.

    Fascists are still worse. And, there is no evidence of any "leftist" conspiracy outside of your padded room.

    The root post was composed of compound lies, so there is nothing to respond to.

    Musk has flaws and his businesses have flaws, but they should be faced and corrected. There is no use for a smear campaign, or for ass-kissing on the other end.

    Move over Spanish inquisition, this era starting about 1995 and continuing onward to the present day is what will be defined as the American inquisition.

    Except " China alone is responsible for 40% of global renewable power growth" in 2015, with the caveat "that represents only half of the country’s electricity demand increase."

  19. Note that wikipedia has undisclosed bias in several sections so refer to the official policy for questions.

  20. Wrong. The olkiluoto reactors 1 and 2 are functioning now, but 3 is the first generation 3 reactor to be constructed in OECD Europe. That fifth reactor unit will literally double existing nuclear power production.

    Not in Finland - there is NO domestic source of coal, and all is imported (75% from Russia).

    Fantasy. Fuel costs and fuel costs to carry fuel will never compare to using a network maintained for end user consumption, serving double use in collecting from disparate generation sources. Unions are a good thing anyway, they cooperate with firms to ensure continued existence.

  24. Right now nuclear production is only 32% of energy and 18% of net trade, but it WILL be 60% after the Olkiluoto reactor is completed and expended as planned.

    You really need to read more. More than 30% of Finland's energy already comes from renewable sources, and fossil fuels are expensive (in terms of security cost as 75% of Finnish coal comes from Russia) or logistics (no local coal mines, all must be imported). Oil has similar problems (~90% from Russia) as does natural gas (100% from Russia), but fortunately local nuclear power will make up 60% of all energy needs, which combined with normal growth in renewable production over time allows for elimination of fossil fuels in power generation.
