The tortoise and the red scare

2019-03-27 00:16:49 UTC  

Lol.

2019-03-27 00:17:07 UTC  

Slow and coccaine win the race.

2019-03-27 00:29:25 UTC  

i think its a good opportunity to discuss these ideas and see where people stand

2019-03-27 00:36:53 UTC  

It can be.

2019-03-27 00:37:46 UTC  

I’d say the republicans have completely dropped the climate change issue altogether and it’s harder to push back against leftist ideas as a result

2019-03-27 00:40:30 UTC  

they can try, instead of showing pictures of regan on a dinosaur

2019-03-27 00:41:29 UTC  

That’s true.

2019-03-27 00:41:45 UTC  

I think it’s a state’s issue at this point.

2019-03-27 00:41:58 UTC  

The states are already addressing it.

2019-03-27 00:42:01 UTC  

it would help to have some discussions, they interviewed lomborg in 2013 for example

2019-03-27 00:42:24 UTC  

Yeah. I think it would be worth looking at his plan.

2019-03-27 00:42:51 UTC  

However it’s already pretty apparent that the energy sector is moving towards renewables

2019-03-27 00:43:22 UTC  

Plenty of people in Africa are already using solar lamps just to get light

2019-03-27 00:43:28 UTC  

*sees a bunch of commies in the chat*

2019-03-27 00:44:25 UTC  

those are market solutions, lomborg has some solid libertarian ideas (and many non-libertarian ideas)

2019-03-27 00:44:55 UTC  

like an easy way to reduce the cost associated with flooding and huricanes... get rid of the federal subsidy on insurance

2019-03-27 00:45:08 UTC  

^ yup. Agree with that.

2019-03-27 00:46:02 UTC  

or increase efficiency in food production... remove subsidies and price ceilings and floors on agriculture

2019-03-27 00:46:09 UTC  

basically get our sugar from cane instead of beets

2019-03-27 00:46:15 UTC  

There are some fossil fuel subsidies that could be abolished, like LIHEAP. This program incentivizes people to use fossil fuels for residential heating

2019-03-27 00:46:47 UTC  

It would force people to become more efficient with energy

2019-03-27 00:47:08 UTC  

My one regret about the electoral college is that it means that we will probably never be rid of farm subsidies.

2019-03-27 00:47:10 UTC  

get rid of all subsidies will help, that's the approach Israel takes on water, pay the actual cost of use. so people fix their leaky toilets, etc

2019-03-27 00:47:12 UTC  

I’d tell Tom stayer to pay for all the efficiency upgrades himself. Lol

2019-03-27 00:47:21 UTC  

But we probably never will anyway.

2019-03-27 00:47:35 UTC  

^ yup.

2019-03-27 00:47:46 UTC  

Biofuels get the biggest break.

2019-03-27 00:48:04 UTC  

i don't agree, farmers make up a small percentage of the country, the problem is lack of education on economics prinicipals

2019-03-27 00:48:04 UTC  

Though now that I think about it, that may be more of a problem with how the primaries are set up instead of the electoral college.

2019-03-27 00:48:07 UTC  

It’s mandatory to use it and it gets subsidies to use.

2019-03-27 11:51:30 UTC  
2019-03-27 11:56:42 UTC  

it was only a matter of time

2019-03-27 12:23:13 UTC  

Everything wrong with LGBT "culture"

2019-03-27 12:51:26 UTC  

Instead of being normal, I had to prove I’m different with weird fashion so I can get attention for it.

2019-03-27 12:53:33 UTC  

^^^^

2019-03-27 12:53:50 UTC  

People would have thought I was *normal*

2019-03-27 12:54:00 UTC  

😱 😱 😱

2019-03-27 12:55:23 UTC  

The conformist non-conformist

2019-03-27 13:02:33 UTC  

Sounds like that recent article about how all hipsters end up looking the same because they have to look different from the normies
