Back then, surely the media and politicians were taxing everyone in order to fund the effort to stop sea level drop!
And Rock-sla cars were all the rage.
Exactly as I implied in my previous comment. We can adapt. But human specks can do NOTHING to change what is largely driven by solar activity. Perhaps we should tell those folks living on the sun to change their lifestyles (and pay more taxes) to redirect solar climate.
And not a fucking thing we can do about it. Bowing to tyrants will only serve to make their lives better and ours worse before the apocalypse.
“So long as people will submit to arbitrary measures, so long will they find masters… more than a prevailing opinion that it is better to tamely submit than nobly assert and vindicate our privileges.” - James Otis Jr. (an American lawyer, political activist, colonial legislator, and early supporter of patriotic causes in Massachusetts Bay Colony at the beginning of the Revolutionary Era)
“Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters.” - Daniel Webster
What's sad is that even intelligent people fall for it. They feel righteous and smarter than the rest of us by glomming onto the "cause celebre."
