Sometimes (always) it is easier to see our own faults in others. And so, in an unending struggle to get Americans to see their own self-inflicted climate calamity, let’s look at a nation that is doing the same thing, only even MORE obviously. Australia is drying up, its majestic coral reef is dying, and the evidence of climate catastrophe is everywhere, but the nation cannot bring itself to face or deal with the scorchingly obvious.
Are they just stupid? Can they not differentiate their short-term interests from their long-term survival? I don’t know; maybe we should ask the guy who cut the last tree down on Easter Island for his thoughts on that.
Human psychology has a glaring weakness in its occasional capacity to eat its own seed corn. To destroy its commons. To put too much debt on the credit card. Yet oh, how we love to watch the children squirm in the https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/09/22/actually-kids-are-good-now/?utm_term=.1cbea57295a4 (marshmallow experiment). Eat this one marshmallow now, or wait a little while and get TWO marshmallows. How delightfully they fidget. How cute in their struggles at self-control.
Same with those shortsighted Australians! Can’t they see what’s happening to their country? Are some coal profits now really worth the destruction of their whole continent?
And as with Australia, https://www.washingtonpost.com/national/health-science/sea-level-rise-is-eroding-home-value-and-owners-might-not-even-know-it/2018/08/20/ff63fa8c-a0d5-11e8-93e3-24d1703d2a7a_story.html?utm_term=.14b3abfc0d0f (so too with us). And the whole Earth. We know what we are supposed to do. But gee, the marshmallow we have is so soft and sweet right now. If we don’t eat it, somebody else might. We earned this marshmallow. Maybe the guy offering two later is lying. Something, anything.
The Republicans in Congress won’t act on climate because they have calculated that you, like them, want your marshmallow now.
In November, TWO marshmallows are on the ballot. You decide.
Personally, I prefer to wait until the fat lady sings.
BREAKING: The jury in Paul Manafort’s fraud case indicated in a note Tuesday that it is struggling to reach a unanimous verdict on all 18 tax- and bank-fraud charges.
The six-woman, six-man jury in the trial of President Trump’s former campaign chairman Paul Manafort began its fourth day of deliberations on Tuesday.
U.S. District Judge T.S. Ellis III summoned jurors into the courtroom a little after 9:35 a.m. As occurs each morning, the clerk called out each juror’s number, and each responded they were “here” or “present.” The judge asked them to confirm that they had not done any independent research, then set them back to resume their work.

Might as well. Muellers got nothing and is wasting money prosecuting tax cases.
Trump floats possibility of taking over Mueller probe: 'I can go in and I could do whatever, I could run it if I want'

if this trend keeps going and the socialists (democRATS) loose any more support from the minority communities they’re going to get their asses kicked in the upcoming elections.

I’ll tell you one thing: my 12 year old better not come to me with “alternative facts” or “truth isn’t truth” ...
