The only one who really stepped up was Al Gore, and look how the democratic party left him twisting in the wind all by his lonesome.

So 71 percent of one side believes what their side's leaders say, while 85 percent of another side believes what their side's leaders say. Sounds about even. No mention of people who haven't picked a side though, huh? Do Right, Be Right. :)

Since then, there’s nearly three times as much wind power (75 GW), and solar power has increased by an astonishing 2500% clip to 31 GW.

Quote:Originally posted by rue: So, this is a complete aide. But jack wondered how the anti-war party became the war hawk party. One could also wonder how the party that claims to represent the good of the people came to represent the multi-nationalist free-traders. Or how that same party went from protecting the environment to quietly joining the other side. Or from protecting people's bank accounts to giving away their assets to the bankers. And I think that it's because most people really don't care if we start wars or remain peaceable. Or make goods in the US or buy things 'Made in China'. Or preserve the environment or do business as usual. Or care if many get poor while a few get far richer. As a result, the democratic party doesn't stand for any vital thing, and doesn't hold itself accountable to fight for any vital thing, like peace, productive capacity, preserving the environment, or creating a fair society. Nope. What it stands for is 'we are the side opposed the republicans'. It's tribal. Republicans bad, democrats good. And those poor democrats who actually mistook their party for one of principle, like McGovern or Gore, were left hanging around all by their lonesome, while the party retreated from those positions. I read an interesting article, and it makes a historical case that the human species isn't particularly moral, or altruistic, or I would say even rational. humans are primarily tribal. https://qz.com/1562585/the-seven-moral-rules-that-supposedly-unite-humanity/ An Oxford researcher says there are seven moral rules that unite humanity
Quote:“I was surprised by how unsurprising it all was,” he says. “I expected there would be lots of ‘be brave,’ ‘don’t steal from others,’ and ‘return favors,’ but I also expected a lot of strange, bizarre moral rules.” They did find the occasional departure from the norm. For example, among the Chuuk, the largest ethnic group in the Federated States of Micronesia, “to steal openly from others is admirable in that it shows a person’s dominance and demonstrates that he is not intimidated by the aggressive powers of others.” That said, researchers who studied the group concluded that the seven universal moral rules still apply to this behavior: “it appears to be a case in which one form of cooperation (respect for property) has been trumped by another (respect for a hawkish trait, although not explicitly bravery),” they wrote.

Quote:Originally posted by rue: "You did already - that chart you posted was conclusive, thanks." Yes, that chart conclusively showed that dubya, by crashing the US economy, achieved significant greenhouse gas reductions starting in 2007. Unless you're telling me that Obama, before he was even sworn in, somehow magically reduced greenhouse gas emissions ... that cause doesn't happen before effect. Is that what you're saying?
