This whole thread is nothing but an exercise in taking things out of context. A supposed "serious constitutional discussion" and I only recall seeing ONE reference to a Supreme Court decision.

LA Riots happen, government sieges at Waco Texas happen, I want to be the guy that survives it

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
