What we need is “The America’s Climate Protection Amendment” to the US Constitution, whereby the government is specifically prohibited from making any law, regulation or executive order, or imposing any tax, for the purpose of changing or regulating the climate of the planet.
It’s the only way to preserve our natural liberties from the relentless onslaught of the climate nazis.
Even if such an amendment is politically impossible, a serious debate on its merits would do much to put the pro-global warming policy makers where they belong — which is on the defensive.
I call them “pro-global warming” because they cannot stand the thought that it might not be real. They will be grieving the loss of social engineering and power grabbing opportunites for the rest of their lives.
I'm afraid that battle was lost with passage of the Endangered Species Act. While not an Amendment, it puts the Government in the position of ending the process of evolution by never allowing any species to go extinct.
Therefore it follows very logically that the Government should also be able to change or regulate Earth's climate "by any means necessary" (to quote the old Stalinist threat).
I have to admit being a little confused though. If the Al Gores of the world can stop evolution and regulate climate, why can't they stop future coastline flooding from Global Warming they fear so much? After all, King Canute thought he could control the tides, and anything an old king could do our present generation of all-powerful wunderkind should find very easy.
Or maybe as you say it has something do with with the power of taxation -- or just plain power?
