Will you disband your organizations which surround man-made global
warming efforts?

The nearly $5 Trillion in changes to our way of life would need to be
paid back some how. Would you do it?

Will you repeal all global warming related laws such as carbon taxes?

Essentially, will you admit you were wrong?

Frugality is an American virtue.

Man is apparently not responsible for global warming, since global
warming occurred before man existed,
BUT,
while reducing CO2 emissions will do nothing to curb global warming,
the things we do to reduce CO2 emissions have other benefits,
like increasing energy efficiency and reducing the power petrolium has
over policy and the economy.

No matter which side is "right", or which side prevails,
we're going to be OK.
Frugality is a virtue regardless of your reason for being frugal.


An American virtue.
