finknottle Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Which is what? How much will it cost? Who will pay for it? Who will allow it in their district? I've had alot of discussions with friends about 'green industry.' I believe that global warming is a serious problem that must be fought, etc, but I have a great deal of trouble with the idea that a viable national economic strategy is to create 'green-collar' jobs (which is pretty much the only answer I heard during the primaries). Fighting GW seriously will be economically extremely painfull, none of the candidates have prepared their supporters for that truth, and for that reason it probably will never happen. Nevertheless, in response to the question of how this nifty green economy is going to work, the response that I get is that there will be lots of jobs exporting green products and technology - replacing all those coal plants in China etc. What they fail to realize is that the rest of the world expects us to share the technology, and that if we want them to phase out a perfectly good but dirty factory, we had better be prepared to pay for it. Much like we would here.
/dev/null Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Tom probably had the analysis right on. He usually does
DC Tom Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 He usually does Okay, cut it out you two. If I want a blow job, I'll talk to the wife.
JK2000 Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Okay, cut it out you two. If I want a blow job, I'll talk to the wife. You mean your beard?
John Adams Posted September 3, 2008 Author Posted September 3, 2008 He usually does One compliment is way more than he needs.
John Adams Posted September 3, 2008 Author Posted September 3, 2008 Why is this not relevant? It didn't specifically answer your question, but it's surely part of this discussion, since it's nearly the same thing she did. She thought they weren't paying enough taxes. She took their money and handed out $1200 (I think) to each Alaskan. http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/loca...laskatax07.html I am asking about the would-be and likely next pres's plans for a national tax, not some vp loser's state taxes. Stop being so knee-jerk partisan. I'm not with Palin so Palin is irrelevant. I want to hear Obama's great plan.
/dev/null Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 One compliment is way more than he needs. And is more than he's used to
DC Tom Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 You mean your beard? Ah, the gay joke. Last refuge of the fourth-grader.
JK2000 Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Ah, the gay joke. Last refuge of the fourth-grader. It wasn't a joke!
DC Tom Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 It wasn't a joke! You do realize this says far more about you than me, right? Kids...
JK2000 Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 You do realize this says far more about you than me, right? Kids... I'm not the one using emoticons. Isn't that rather flimsy of you?
GG Posted September 4, 2008 Posted September 4, 2008 Okay, cut it out you two. If I want a blow job, I'll talk to the wife. And how many married guys believe that line? Unless you mean that you'll just talk to her about it.
