Words of Wisdom From Alan Caruba
Posted by Dave Blount at December 17, 2007 2:42 PM
Alan Caruba knows what's at stake if Al Gore and his UN accomplices win the global warming propaganda war they are waging against modern civilization:
If I were to devise a plan to destroy the greatest economy, creator of wealth, center of innovation, and exemplar of individual liberty that has ever existed in human history, I would patiently create fear of a global disaster involving the one thing over which humans never had and never will have control, the earth's climate. I would then propose a "solution" that would cost that economy billions in "carbon credits" to keep it from occurring.
What the former Soviet Union and its failed Communist system could not achieve in some 45 years of the Cold War, the environmental movement is seeking to achieve in its place. By undermining the economy of the United States and Western nations with draconian limits on CO2 emissions, those behind this effort will create a world ripe for a single ruling government composed of unelected bureaucrats whose only purpose will be to feed at its trough.
The single greatest determinant of the Earth's climate, the Sun, will continue to shine, but the world will be plunged yet again into the darkness of ignorance and submission to the false religion of environmentalism if the global warming lie succeeds.
Now is the time to argue back, while we still can. If the history of totalitarian movements is any guide, it won't be long before the authorities become extremely aggressive in silencing truth-tellers like Caruba.
On a tip from Byron.
