If only we could find a way to make those icky rockets green, maybe our astronauts wouldn't need to hitchhike into the space with the Russians. |

The central point is a Catch 22.
It's not the 'the market' fixes everything. But the argument from advocates is that there is consensus and there is demand and there is capability. If those three things are in fact the way advocates represent, there is no barrier to a free market explosion from private interests providing a need. But advocates also argue that this must be done by government because the market is incapable. This argument stems from two strains of thought. First is that the existing energy industry has a false monolopy and is somehow stopping energy entreprenualism. This is largely the land of unfounded conspiracy, and to the extent it actually is accurate is actually a function of the lack of demand at an alternative price point. The second is the dire predictions that we are too far gone for anything but swift and determined universal action. But the solutions don't face that head-on. No one is seriously proposing a return to horse and buggy, or international compulsion, or population restriction or culling. Everyone wants a cheap, painless path to avert destruction without changing anything we personally find important. And they think if they make government take care of it, government will come up with a way to make OTHER PEOPLE pay the painful part.

In the meantime, our alleged space organization can't put in American in orbit without foreign assistance, much less send him (or her!) anywhere else. But apparently that's okay. Do you need a Russian to jerk you off a bit before you get wood? |

Well, I wish NASA had better funding too. But it is what it is. During the campaign, Trump was actually calling for lowering the funding that NASA currently receives. But ended up abandoning the funding decrease. Thank goodness...

I mean, I don't see how you can dispute climate change, I just don't see why anyone cares. We are not immortal. My goal is to shit all over this Earth before I die. This is my nightmare.

Welp, we have scientist who can tell us exactly what the temp was before there were thermometers, and that we all came from a ball of Goo (maybe not who/what invented the Goo, or who made what the Goo was floating around in), but they can't stop a cow from farting...

Global Warming is now called climate change for a reason. Cooling trend is now in progress. Al Gore = Hot Air
