Big cars killing the planet

I remember when the tide turned on smoking. In just a few years it went from acceptable to unacceptable.
Public sentiment made a huge difference. Pretty much anybody who could quit did, even though it's terribly addicting.

If that same public sentiment started to frown on or laugh at these people who have a car that's 3 times bigger and uses 10 times more gas than the rest of us, then moved on to the 2 times bigger and 5 times then...
We'd make a huge difference.

How to destroy a government

Make them go broke trying to be something their not.

What caused the downfall of the Soviet Union? They spent all their resources to be a superpower and neglected everything else. It was the cause of their downfall. Reagan gets credit, and he did draw a line in the sand... but the USSR caused their own demise.

OK, so now OPEC is going to reduce production...just as our economy hits a bump! Cooincidence? I think not.
The US depends on that oil. Reduced production will wreak havoc with our economy. The price of everything depends on the price of energy. Stagflation. Remember the Carter years?

The writing is on the wall. We can read it and act, or pay the consequences of the (mostly) republican head in the sand syndrom.

You are warned.
