@HowgozitWhether they have happened yet or not in the US is beside the point. I believe they are (lobbyist’s influences aside) the goals of Obama’s policies. To want them to fail, to say they MUST fail seems quite partisan and shortsighted.
@sYeah, creating jobs, getting the rich to pay their fair share of taxes, addressing the deficit, ensuring that most people have health care coverage, protecting the environment (without backing down)…that all has to fail.I think for America to succeed, blind, rabid partisanship must fail.
heh, if there weren’t heavy fines, I’m sure some “danger” deniers would drive that fast in a school zone….
It’s an example. We need to agree on rules of good behaviour and, sometimes, set rules and pass laws that everyone will respect. Same goes with environmental protection. Do you deny that pesticides/chemicals in water are deforming and killing wildlife? Should that go unchecked?
People are going to get rich no matter which way we go. Funny how fossil fuel companies are the ones funding climate-skeptic campaigns. You have stocks in Exxon Mobil you’re counting on?
I’m not a scientist, don’t claim to be. But if a panel of experts told me that driving at 150 in a school zone is hazardous..I’d believe them. That’s why we have laws and…well, speed limits.
Are you saying that the governments should stop passing laws? That you wouldn’t respect caps on pollution?
Middle panel request: check! :)
