its like leaving your fridge open all the time

the money from the carbon tax was then used a taxcut for consumers, and to subsidise solar implementation

*the issue of the sun not shining in australia is pretty much not a thing*

our skies are cloudy like 2-3 months of the year

*if that*

the carbon tax was then abolished by the next people that came into power for literally *just* political reasons

Issue a carbon tax and build nuclear powerplants

Evidence based policies should take priority

lmao, if we had evidence based politics everything would be better

problem is people pick their "evidence"

People are faggots.

What do you mean by "evidence based policy"?

If there is "evidence" that gun restrictions reduce gun related crimes, that still wouldn't be a justification to take away inalienable rights

Similarly, if there is "evidence" that lax immigration policies lead to economic development, that wouldn't justify sacrificing the sovereignty of a Nation

Politics has a lot of dimensions than just "evidence" for a single factor

it can also find evidence to contradict that

the amount of crimes stopped by armed citizens would probably outweigh the gains

You're missing the point

*yes, but its also a nitpick*

Gun rights are NOT predicated on that evidence of "probably outweighing the gains"

They are inalienable rights, based on philosophy

Not empirical evidence

there is "probably" evidence that gunlaws decrease gun crime

*but theres also evidence to show they do fuck all*

***wut***

I just said it was related to last night

no you didnt

@Black Knight Patriarch you've said fucking nothing

then why are you responding

Oh maybe it didn't go through

Continue. Sorry to interrupt continue

Introducing a carbon tax =! giving up your nation's sovereignty

Carbon Tax is dumb, it only gives more money to the government and doesn’t help pollution

If you do believe it helps pollution, I’d like to see the graph

Wow geez, it’s almost like the mixed race person wants more mixed race people, and thinks mixed race people are better.

There totally isn’t a tribal bias there

you know that just as much applies to you as it does to him, right?

Of course

just making sure
