Global warming happens regardless of our contribution. Do you think Earths climate has stayed the same for millions of years? It does'nt matter what we do to 'prevent' climate change as there are a thousand other problems that mean in the next 100 years there is a high probability that either the majority or a good percentage of the human population will be gone which is a good thing for the human species as a whole and our planet.

Humans are selfish by nature, a lot of people don't care about these kind of things and very rarely if ever even think about them as it's not an immediate danger. Since you can't see, feel or even perceive such a threat to your existence then there is no need to worry but I'm just reiterating the OP now.

Politicians are there to win votes and not to inform the public of any thing out side of there stance on imigration.

Death of a human happens but it is often illegal for me to cause it.

Americans are programmed to turn of their critical thinking when it comes to politics.

So basically with what's happened since 1980, it would sound like this- "Look, just give us all your money so we can give it to our rich friends and they'll tell us what to tell you to do. Now get back to work or we'll drop a neutron bomb on your neighborhood. Do you really think those were meant for use in foreign wars?"

No, because if politicians spoke to adults like adults, we would be hearing the truth. Truth, however, has no realm in the world of politics.

Thats correct. It shows how weak our goverment really is which is sad but so very true.

Political manipulation is way older then that.

Jimmy Carter was a genius as a nuclear physicist but is a dumbass as a politician. Not to mention that some people are intelligent AND malicious.
