Thanks for the correction. We never stop learning something new :)
As I go through your posts I find it hard to believe that you are a "law student" or own a business. I haven't seen the "verifiable piece of scientific information" you say you posted somewhere in here so please help me out as I might not be as eloquent or smart as you and have obviously missed it. If you posted data that can be looked at and worked through to test the research and math used to support the many "climate change" theories I am all for it because I have yet to find any of your "95%" of climatologists' research posted anywhere. All I can find is your numerous uses of vague talking points and unverifiable numbers. I guess after further reflection you probably are a law student. Now I see that you are going back and forth with everyone on the difference between a theory and a hypothesis and telling everyone how simple they are but I fully understand the differences. I see the website you pulled to support your post has as an author someone that supports your views and why not it fits nicely. Somehow I think all of the scientists that claim to support the theory of climate change believe in it also and have not done the research to support it and have let their beliefs influence their scientific method. The basic problem with the theory as a whole is simple all of these people have thrown their names behind it but no one will debate it, post their findings, provide the math used to validate the findings, or allow their peers who disagree with them to validate. All hypothesis in order to become a theory must be validated by everyone not just those who agree with us to be proven true. Also if the math and science are sound enough to warrant all the change then why did we need to include in the budget money to improve the models used to determine climate change. If it is a proven theory then the models have already been improved upon and there should be little room to do anything else. It should be a matter of simple chemistry and physics to prove how the earth is warming and how man is the direct cause of this not just the cyclical nature of weather and other phenomenon. If it needs to start getting into string theory or some other area of quantum mechanics then it will be more than likely that no amount of money will help as we are everyday revamping those. Then again on the original Earth Day in 1970 this prediction was made “Scientists have solid experimental and theoretical evidence to support…the following predictions: In a decade, urban dwellers will have to wear gas masks to survive air pollution…by 1985 air pollution will have reduced the amount of sunlight reaching earth by one half….” • Life Magazine, January 1970. Sorry due to the poor light right now my eyes are hurting because I do not have my gas mask with me so I need to stop now.
I can understand your concern for the children as an educator but also as an educator you should also research the publications and sites you have provided. Just a little digging brought up a treasure trove of speeches and other philosophies of Professor Alex Molnar (Arizona State University). He is a major proponent of the public school system and views any other form (charter schools, private, and religious based) as inferior. He also does not feel that vouchers work and that they undermine the public system. I didn't get a chance to look up Professor Kevin Welner (University of Colorado at Boulder) or Wendy Chi. If the Education Policy Research Unit at ASU is headed and run by these guys then one has to question the policy research they conduct and how objective it is. As an educator maybe you can provide your thoughts on these issues. I don't want to sound callous but who is responsible for the well being of the children living in these "poverty" stricken areas myself who chooses not to live in them or the parents who have a choice to move at anytime for the well being of their children. To say they cannot is disingenuous to them as everyday families come into this country with little more than what they can carry and somehow work themselves out of their situations. So what we are to believe is that these families are somehow worse off than those that came here with nothing.
There was a time in America when yes these postings that you call traitorous would in fact get you arrested. It was in a time when a similar President was in charge and his name was Woodrow Wilson and it was called the "Sedition Act". I do like how you capitalized the word Marxism which speaks volumes of what You think of it and do like how many times when someone raises an opinion that Marxists do not agree with they respond with insults, name calling, and last but not least violence but no real meat to support their arguments. Why don't you tell us what MARXISM means to you.
Um not sure but I am sure that he is a "intelligent, thoughtful man" who probably has the best of intentions based on his political beliefs. But what I think you fail to grasp is that one only needs to think for themselves and do their own independent research into what this thoughtful man is doing and wants to do. History has already shown whether his ideas will work, all you need to do is look it up on your own and not listen to the many pundits who will put their own opinions into it. For the last eight years of the "mess" I remember seeing all of these bumper stickers talking about dissent being patriotic and yet each side wants to stifle this. I do not remember where "supporting your president" involved providing the answers for the problems they "inherited". Did you provide any answers over the last eight years? If so, please post a link so we can gain insight into how much You supported your past Presidents. As far as Beck providing answers do a little research and you will find that he has already provided them you just have to work a little to get there. Or you could just do more cut and paste antagonistic postings.
At the end of the day the simplest way to settle the "pay as you go" debacle is for Congress to use the same math that the administration used to determine how many jobs they have saved. By using this unknown, but blatantly brilliant, mathematical method we should be able to balance the budget, reduce the deficit, and bring America back to its once great Wilsonian utopia that it was after World War One. Then again I did not attend Harvard and have not been a "professor" of anything so I could be missing something here.
