As part of my new radical agenda, and for my koolaid friends, I'm taking a new tactic. "What a great thing that they passed that health care bill. Finally, everyone is going to be taxed at the same rate. No they're not. Do you think that only the top 1% of this country are going to pay for $80 trillion in medical costs?" "Gotta give it to that Algore. He's freaking brilliant. Told you - glad to see you're coming around. Yep, he managed to create a crisis where none existed and has made himself and several other people billionaires. Time to get on the bandwagon. Have you seen how many grants are now available to do studies on global warming. The government is handing out money as fast as they can print it. Why did you know that there $100 Million in Grant Money Available For Global Warming Research? True - here's just one example: Universities researching here-and-now solutions to global warming stand the best chance of snagging part of the $100 million in grant money that's been offered up for the cause. Specifically, they're most interested in funding research efforts that promise to encourage rapid deployment of existing clean-energy technologies, or spur the development of new technology breakthroughs. About two-thirds of the funding will go to these 'here-and-now' solutions, which include research into pricing policies for greenhouse gas trade-offs. The remainder of the grant money is earmarked for solutions that will enable society to adapt to global warming and its impacts on agriculture, forest and freshwater resources, wildlife, public health, coastal management and emergency preparedness. Hundreds of this stuff out there.
