 davboz says: "Stop the bubble machine." It takes an amateur sometimes to sense a concept in their soul without a bunch of technical knowledge to get in the way and cloud a person's insights. There just seemed something fake, artificial "built on sand" about the tech and housing markets. And to fit the evolving puzzle, the next piece had to be global in scale; had to have emotional and convincing sponsorship; and had to step up the stakes in terms of a sense of necessity if not desperation -- and that piece -- that new bubble -- is YOU GUESSED IT -- GLOBAL WARMING. If you haven't been suspicious of the promotion of this thing your head is....well, you've been played. Or something. The growth of the tech industry was not the way business grows in a healthy manner; people's squandering of every new dollar of their wildly inflated, on-loan home equity was as self-destructive as a cocaine addict blowin' the month's pay in one night; and -- NOW -- the corporate world being in an unnatural perverse int ....inter-relationship with the environmental left-wing smacks of fraud. And the main ploy is an emotional intimidation. We will have to guilt-trip you into supporting this next bubble. The issue within is INTENTION.

If you can't sense the un-natural unfolding of "news" and political events as well as the manufactured and pre-planned indoctrination of which the whole thing plainly reeks, than "they" really DO know their subjects. Then again, I missed the earlier bubbles. I'm counting on ALL Y'ALL to swallow it H,L,& S'er. (Maybe that'll be the symbol for the main Global Warming e.... Thanks davboz for this extremely important article Here's something I found yesterday on that very issue: The Federal Trade Commission, which regulates advertising claims, raised the question Tuesday in its first hearing in a series on green marketing, this one focusing on carbon offsets. As more companies use offset programs to create an environmental halo over their products, the commission said it was growing increasingly concerned that some green marketing assertions were not substantiated. Environmentalists have a word for such misleading advertising: "greenwashing." http://www.iht.com/articles/2008/01/09/business/09offsets.php There's a higher truth: The best (not worst) strategy would be to let the "bubble-blowing machine" implode, live with the absence of a new bubble for a while, then quietly step back and reassess our unsustainable "growth-at-all-costs" economic policies that are secretly designed to benefit the self-interests of Wall Street's insiders who profit by endlessly blowing bubble after bubble ... after bubble ... after ....
