8/9 Who said this:
"Approximately 80% of our air pollution stems from hydrocarbons
released by vegetation, so let's not go overboard in setting and
enforcing tough emissions standards from man-made sources."
\_ go go google. Ronald Reagan (10 Sep 1980)
\_ He was right then and he is right now. Reagan rules!
\_ Riiiight. -Dr Evil
\_ Someday you'll understand.
\_ eh. what a dumbass thing to say. we were worried about dangerous
chemicals dumped in rivers and CFCs, and he's talking about
hydrocarbons?
\_ He right. Tough environmental standards reduce the
effectiveness of American industry and cause big losses
in jobs because industry will move overseas to more hospitable
countries. What's the point in "preserving the environment"
when people are going to go hungry and die in the streets
because they can't get jobs to buy food.
\_ This doesn't quite hold up in a country with ~4% unemployment.
Ask the workers in those countries overseas if they have a
"hospitable" working environment. Get a fucking clue before
you start blathering. --scotsman
\_ It always amuses me when people jump to these absurd
ideological extremes to validate their viewpoint. It's
something that I see from highschoolers most commonly.
It just seems so strange that someone could swallow
someone else's specious argument and internalize it so
fucking readily without really investing any of their own
thought. Of course, maybe that's one of the
reasons the preferred age for new army recruits is in the
late teen age range. |
