This is definitely a real and profound threat, just like those Iraqi drones that were gonna fly over our cities and spray chemical and biological agents all over us. I recommend that we all become very afraid, wet our pants, and do whatever the TV tells us to do.

Also note that the Dodd housing bailout bill has a sneaky provision in it that will report ALL credit card transactions to the IRS.

Look carefully and see the mechanism at work. There are two teams that take turns managing USA Inc.

Team A: Makes you scared of terrorists so that you won’t complain when your civil liberties are taken away and your tax dollars are wasted on pointless wars of empire. Of course there are some real terrorists that sometimes kill people but then again there are also car crashes (40000 die each year!) tornadoes and hurricanes and lightning and earthquakes and sharks that also kill people but let’s just forget about them and be really scared of terrorists, okay?

Team B: Makes you scared of global warming so that you won’t complain when your civil liberties are taken away and your tax dollars are wasted on pointless wars of empire. Of course there might be some truth that CO2 is warming up the atmosphere but of course there are also GMO foods, DU munitions, carcinogenic pesticides, heavy metals in our trash that leach into the groundwater, giant fields of decaying plastic waste in the ocean that kill untold millions of fish and marine animals, poisonous vaccines that also hurt people but let’s just forget about them and be really scared of global warming, okay?

At any point in time a little over half of the population supports one team and a little less than half supports the other team. Whenever a new team is given control of USA, Inc., those supporters cheer like when their favorite football team wins and then they strut around and act really tough. Meanwhile the new management team commences another round of economic rape against them while they’re not even looking and they wonder why they’re working harder than their parents did but not taking as many vacations and they’re stressed out all the time because the prices keep going up and their health insurance benefits and pensions get cut again and on and on and on it goes…

Again, I think people need to stop getting taken in by the “GW is real/GW is not real” sideshow and keep their eyes on the ball. This is a textbook 3-card monty play to get us all to accept a horrible regressive tax. TBTB are gearing up to tax us on our carbon output and they’ll use that money to pay bureaucrats instead of doing a damn thing to clean up or fix our environment. If you make $25K a year and you drive a car and run your air conditioner, you will pay the same carbon tax as the guy who makes $500K a year and drives a car and runs his air conditioner. The rich guy will pay a little more of course because his house and car are nicer, but the carbon taxes will basically be consumption taxes — regressive and unfairly burdensome on those least able to afford them while leaving the super-rich untouched.

All of these supposed solutions like making a “cap&trade” market and adding new regressive taxes are not going to magically make the problems go away. Again, if we were serious about this problem we would be funding solar energy, wind energy, even nuclear energy, we’d be building public transport systems, we’d be giving incentives for people to live closer to work, but again we’re not hearing any of those ideas.

Think of it like social security. The government added a tax so that we would all be able to survive old age without starving but now it is of course bankrupt and we’re told that we’ll be lucky to receive any benefits at all when we’re old. Yet they keep taking the tax out of our paychecks and they always will. GW is being used to scare everyone into accepting a new carbon tax, but this time it will be even worse because it’s not a progressive tax based on income like SSDI but rather a regressive consumption tax. It is a wicked parlor trick, and the best thing about it is that no one will ever be able to say whether it’s working or not. The government will just release reports saying “We’re putting 10% less carbon into the environment!” and we’ll all ooh and aah and feel good about ourselves and meanwhile the hurricanes will keep coming and the ice will keep melting.

Just my $0.02…
