Yeah, but AFAIK, looking deeper, it has to do with the per capita emissions. As a developing nation, their emissions per capita are lower than ours.

Ah, a "nuance"...
My point remains unscathed; China would be exempt...

That's so neither here or there, and you know it. But we need a "lock box." (typed in Al Gore's monotone)

Is this "and you know it" a liberal's way of calling someone a liar? I hear it a lot when liberals ignore a point of mine. (lol, "liberal's" fails SI's spell checker)

Alas, no. But of course, most people aren't all that logical to begin with.

Well, we should work toward being more logical instead of youthful half-cocked liberal feel-good-ism....

"Conservative logic" is an oxymoron.

Any examples of my logic you would like to discuss? I promise not to run away or belittle you or resort to name calling as demonstrated by the resident elitists.....

What would that even mean? SS money gets invested in government bonds (lent to the general fund). If you actually have a "lock box", than the SS money gets invested somewhere else, and the general fund borrows more. I don't see how that really makes a difference.
