yoink 321 #2 December 30, 2018 The average cost of gas in the UK is $5.95. They’re still in the Paris accords. No riots over there... Your ‘out of the accords = no riots’ argument is complete nonsense. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

gowlerk 1,911 #4 December 30, 2018 Somehow or other, in Canada, we manage to pay taxes have universal healthcare and not have riots. (except over the Stanley Cup) Gas is cheaper here than in Europe but higher than the US. As if that has anything to do with it.Always remember the brave children who died defending your right to bear arms. Freedom is not free. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Poll: Few Americans support US withdrawal from Paris climate agreement https://thehill.com/blogs/blog-briefing-room/news/338550-poll-few-americans-support-us-withdrawal-from-paris-climate the University of Chicago’s NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that 46 percent of Americans somewhat or strongly opposed withdrawing from the agreement. Twenty-three percent were neither in favor or opposed, and 29 percent supported the withdrawal." Talks Adopt 'Rulebook' to Put Paris Climate Deal Into Action https://www.usnews.com/news/business/articles/2018-12-16/nations-at-climate-talks-back-universal-emissions-rules "Among those that pushed back hardest was the United States, despite President Donald Trump's decision to pull out of the Paris climate accord and his promotion of coal as a source of energy. "Overall, the U.S. role here has been somewhat schizophrenic — pushing coal and dissing science on the one hand, but also working hard in the room for strong transparency rules," said Elliot Diringer of the Center for Climate and Energy Solutions, a Washington think tank. The U.S. is still technically in the Paris agreement until 2020, which is why American officials participated in the Katowice talks." One year since Trump’s withdrawal from the Paris climate agreement https://www.brookings.edu/blog/planetpolicy/2018/06/01/one-year-since-trumps-withdrawal-from-the-paris-climate-agreement/ Trump Hotel, EPA Building Among Federal Properties in Flood Zones https://www.insurancejournal.com/news/national/2017/12/19/474756.htm Trump reversed regulations to protect infrastructure against flooding just days before Hurricane Harvey https://www.businessinsider.com/trump-reversed-obama-flooding-regulations-before-hurricane-harvey-2017-8 "Ten days before Hurricane Harvey descended upon Texas on Friday, wreaking havoc and causing widespread flooding, President Donald Trump signed an executive order revoking a set of regulations that would have made federally funded infrastructure less vulnerable to flooding. The Obama-era rules, which had not yet gone into effect, would have required the federal government to take into account the risk of flooding and sea-level rise as a result of climate change when constructing new infrastructure and rebuilding after disasters. Experts are predicting that Harvey — the most powerful storm to hit the US since 2004 — will cost Texas between $30 billion and $100 billion in damage. And in the coming days, Congress will be called upon to send billions of federal dollars to help with the state's recovery and rebuilding efforts. But because of Trump's rollback of President Barack Obama's Federal Flood Risk Management Standard, experts across the political spectrum say much of the federal money sent to Texas is likely to be wasted on construction that will insufficiently protect against the next storm. "We will rebuild things that should not be rebuilt and ... in ways that are less safe and secure than they should be," Eli Lehrer, president of the conservative think tank R Street Institute in Washington," i.e. let federal insurance apply to flood plain rebuilding so taxpayers bail out deevelopers. Above is just more example of trump using government money to pay foe his properties at the expense of taxpayers. MtrumpGA You should be so happy.

How much do you pay more for gas in the US compared to France eacht month and how much for healthcare? The French and US Americans are just very different when it comes to rioting.If it does not cost anything you are the product. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jakee 1,254 #8 December 30, 2018 JerryBaumchen I don't see any takers. Do you? Jerry Baumchen Which is surprising, because the logic is ironclad. Since one country in the Paris accords is having riots, Trump leaving the accords must be the only reason the US isn't facing riots. Do you want to have an ideagasm?

If that is true, why do you think it is bad? I focus much of my energy in my community to serving the underprivileged. I don't think the highly educated need love.

Phil1111 910 #11 December 31, 2018 RonD1120*** Trump loves the poorly educated. You have made that statement many times and it comes across as a negative value. If that is true, why do you think it is bad? Because it allows his lies to be spun into a narrative which is accepted as gospel truth. I focus much of my energy in my community to serving the underprivileged. Which is redeeming and laudable. But what about the trump racists and enablers. Working to destroy American values and interests. I don't think the highly educated need love. Well, actually they do but, they just don't accept it. They believe they have all the answers. They accept it. You don't recognize the far right extremist trump supporters. Which believe that a toxic blend of lies and policy. Will not come back to bite American interests, home and abroad.
