i guffawed and nearly choked when i got to the end of his sentence. Did.not.expect.. I can't imagine what assemblage of logic emerged to formulate that precise thought.
Mr Friedman - we're going to meet the Kyoto goals (if we haven't already) no thanks to you, but thanks to all that fracked natural gas that is replacing coal-burning.
So actually, the best place to start is you STFU.
That a writer can spout drivel like this and be employed by a main stream media outlet.........
Amazing.
What's amazing is not so much that those spouting such nonsense are employed by the MSM but that such stupidity reflects how stupid the propagandists take us to be. It would be interesting to see how many people would jump on board the carbon tax ridiculousness when shown the piece. THAT represents the core problem.
Ah?
Friedman is THEEEEEEEEE most over rater "thinker" in the media today. People this smart should not sound soooooo stupid. Mile wide, inch deep.
Yeah, carbon taxes are great. In Australia, the whole country just kicked out the government that introduced a carbon tax and replaced it resoundingly with one that promised to get rid of it.
Carbon taxes and trillion dollar coins will solve all our problems. Well, tell big enough lies often enough ,,,
Feels like the whole world has Mad Cow Disease, doesn't it?
Not the whole world, but Krugman and the idiots that believe schemes like his will actually work have mad cow or some other brain-disabling condition
And it all started with our resident mad cow.
My first though was "You have got to be kidding me!'
My second thought: " Holy shit! He's serious!"
It could well be considered offensive too.
At first I was thinking "Well, sounds like your standard political platitudes. Nothing groundbreakingly stupid here." And then I read the last sentence.
