    BUT SURE

  3. Also a reminder that this is exactly what Hitler did. Defunded the railroads and steel plants and sold them to private corporations. Previously they were publicly owned. Not government owned. Real socialism you know? That money went towards their national healthcare system. Shortly after begining to privatize Germany, Hitler increased requirements for their NHS, making many intelligible for coverage.

    This is the real trickle down economics

    Uhhh no. I support increasing tax on the wealthy, like Biden is planning to do. Trump moved corporate tax from 35% to 21%. I want to see it get to 1950's-1980's levels and hit 40-50% again. Biden's plan is to move it up to 26%. It is the lesser of evils.

    So just answer a simple question: imagine and tell us what the perfect hypothetical data that could change your mind, would look like.

    The exact same thing that changed my mind when i once believed the warming hysteria: scientific data showing the long term record, i noticed a COOLING, not warming trend.



    your own unqualified one

    What part of the above graph is unqualified to you?

    All your link contained was an expert telling me that just because todays temperatures are nowhere near unprecedented doesnt mean I shouldnt believe the opposite, without explaining why i should disregard the science that gives us the current historical record.

    Nobody in the universe has ever denied that the earth's climate changes on it's own or that it may have been warmer at some point in the past, so I don't know if you are illiterate or what but you're just refusing to engage with the point.

    Which is that human industrial activity is causing accelerated climate change at a rate that is not in line with the natural, historic rate of change of the climate.

    That is also false, lets look at a more recent part of the graph, the past few thousand years instead of million:



    I see nothing unusual or unnatural about todays warming period. the temperature grew at a faster in the medieval warming period than today, without indistrualization. every peak preceding it was even more dramatic than the one before it.
