Quote of the Week – 'global warming fear is damaging our young'

The first daycare our son was in once had him color in a picture of a cartoon planet earth with a face that was looking very sick and tired. The caption printed on the picture was “The earth has a fever”. For him, this indoctrination was started before he was 2 years old. He did not go to that daycare for long. Even as a student in the 80’s when this was more openly debatable by all sides, I was being taught only the Al Gore version at public school with no hint of a debate or other point of view. This early indoctrination is pervasive.

Maybe it’s getting time for a civil suit against NGOs and other fear-mongering organizations. It’s not hard anymore to show that certain scientists have lied, and I’d expect a subpoena of Climate Action Network documents and minutes would show widespread collusion in planning to introduce fear-causing curriculum materials. There may indeed be a good, factual, and reasonable civil case here for knowing and deliberate psychological abuse of the young.

Governing (and selling ) thru fear is a time tested, and successful, strategy that goes far beyond the AGW meme. Beware of the saviors who treat us to a never ending parade of hobgoblins, which we are told, can only be vanquished by acceding to their leadership.

The opportunity cost alone of wasting $1 billion per day on AGW hype is hurting our children.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
Unfortunately it is a heck of a lot worse than that. While distracting us with the “Monster Under the Bed” the burglars were coming in through the basement. Unfortunately it is our children and our grand children who will pay for the REAL damage.
That $1 billion per day ($60,808,219 a day in the USA) gets tacked on to our National debt. The IMF is getting worried so it has started laying The Groundwork For Global Wealth Confiscation Forbes even quotes the IMF document.
Think the Cyprus Haircut was bad? That was just the warning shot. The “haircut” on uninsured deposits was set at 47.5% with a further 22.5% locked to be possibly used for completing recapitalization. Local and foreign insurance companies originally excluded from the haircut will take a 27.5% cut and so will charities and private educational institutions. Not to mention the “6.75% tax” on insured deposits. (Data from various sources such as link )

Forbes: The International Monetary Fund Lays The Groundwork For Global Wealth Confiscation
The International Monetary Fund (IMF) quietly dropped a bomb in its October Fiscal Monitor Report. Titled “Taxing Times,” the report paints a dire picture for advanced economies with high debts that fail to aggressively “mobilize domestic revenue.”
It goes on to build a case for drastic measures and recommends a series of escalating income and consumption tax increases culminating in the direct confiscation of assets.
Yes, you read that right. But don’t take it from me. The report itself says:

The sharp deterioration of the public finances in many countries has revived interest in a “capital levy”— a one-off tax on private wealth—as an exceptional measure to restore debt sustainability. The appeal is that such a tax, if it is implemented before avoidance is possible and there is a belief that it will never be repeated, does not distort behavior (and may be seen by some as fair). … The conditions for success are strong, but also need to be weighed against the risks of the alternatives, which include repudiating public debt or inflating it away. … The tax rates needed to bring down public debt to precrisis levels, moreover, are sizable: reducing debt ratios to end-2007 levels would require[/b] (for a sample of 15 euro area countries) a tax rate of about 10 percent on households with positive net wealth. (page 49)”

…That means that all households with positive net wealth—everyone with retirement savings or home equity—would have their assets plundered under the IMF’s formulation.
Second, such a repudiation of private property will not pay off Western governments’ debts or fund budgets going forward. It will merely “restore debt sustainability,” allowing free-spending sovereigns to keep tapping the bond markets until the next crisis comes along….

If that is not enough to get your temper up there is this nasty bit of US government lying.

Government pledges 50% of GDP to bail out Wall Street
You can be forgiven for thinking that the bailout of Wall Street was limited to the $700 billion plan passed in October. But you would be off by a factor of 10. The actual number is $7.4 trillion, according to Bloomberg News. With GDP at $14.3 trillion, that represents more than half of the sum total of all goods and services produced in the U.S….

An older report by Bloomberg:
Fed’s Once-Secret Data Compiled by Bloomberg Released to Public (Includes zip file of spread sheets) First I have seen of that in a news story!
Brother, Our kids are going to hate us. We just unknowingly sold them into slavery.

Have you NOTICED that posts with RANDOM capitals sound spittle-flecked and RANTY in your HEAD?
They only need some random punctuation on the end to qualify for a speakyourbranes mention, if it still exists?

While there are many good reasons not to have children, and many ways technology could make their lives bad or even destroy their futures, man-made global warming is probably not one of them.
Which isn’t to say that people should have children.

Sadly, it is all part of the Socialist mantra & ideology, to break down the value of the family unit, & replace the act of turning to parents for answers & solutions, & turning instead to the State for heir answers & solutions to perceived problems, whether real or otherwise! After all it is ultimately what Agenda 21 is all about. I sing with science teacher twice a week, & thankfully being the wonderful person that she is, she always demands her students research & or provide supporting evidence for any statements or claims made in their coursework!

well reasoned arguments from parents and teachers are the only cure for BS media hype. Unfortunately, I have noticed a distinct attitude change in the teaching side – where they are forced to teach a given mantra/agenda/syllabus, etc – often without the correct reasoning to accompany it.
This is another reason that I will be home schooling my children in the very near term (when the eldest finishes primary school).
The saddest thing is that it pervades through the media to adults too – just think of all the advertising for healthy margarine spreads and the anti-butter ‘campaigns’ from 30 years ago. Then, what happens?, ‘new’ research says that butter is actually better for you!? WTF?
You have to take EVERYTHING with a pinch of salt (reduced sodium content, of course!)

So what else is new?

This has really got to stop. The fear mongering of children is disgusting and completely contemptible – they are children not pawns in the energy debate.
