I believe there is global warming. I do not believe it is man made, and I do not believe humans can stop the current cycle. Exxon is paying scientists? I can understand contributions to these groups: commondreams.org I wouldn't donate money to groups that hate me, would you?

Let's say you created a car that would revolutionize the automobile industry. GM and Ford refused to pay what you thought your invention was worth. I don't think you would want the government stepping in and screwing you for efforts. Are Microsoft workers unionized?

It use to be crime doesn't pay. With lax punishment, crime begins to pay. People will take more risks knowing crime does pay. Stating to shoot my child for not cleaning his room is a stretch wouldn't you agree? Maybe start with eliminating access to his favorite enjoyment? I had my car taken away from me in school, seems parents are terrified of their kids today with the government running around throwing parents in jail for spanking their kids. Shooting sounds good for some of these yahoos in prison wasting my tax money on 15 years of billable lawyer time.
