Doing something about climate change does not entail living in a yurt, or getting windmill cancer.

I'm sure there are other things you could do without horribly changing your lifestyle.
If you are like most Americans, a little lifestyle change would probably enable you to live longer, healthier and wealthier.
We are the fattest major country in the world, consume the most energy per person of any large country and rank pretty far down for life expectancy.
But your head is stuck in the sand, that's the difference.

my heads not stuck
in the sand. but i’m not sure my panels are a net positive ( dead birds and eventual disposal of all
that crap), nor my Leaf ( the battery is awful for the environment.
my head isn’t stuck in any sand, you just aren’t used to someone who doesn’t blindly cling to one side or the other. i’ll ask you a question i’ve asked spence 50 times, which he never answers...are there any major policy items, on which you junk liberals are wrong and
conservatives are right? Spence hates that question, because it reveals him for exactly what he is.

The last presidential election was the first I didn’t vote Republican in longer than you have lived.
I am not someone who gets stuck on policy, bipartisan decisions have always worked well in this country and they are typically somewhere in the middle.
Money, power, corporations and lawyers have killed government of the people, by the people and for the people.
I believe we are the only country in the world where you can be fined for plugging two extension cords together, but we can’t figure out how to work together on basic needs from education to infrastructure.

problem is, i cant know how you voted. but i see how you post. and all you do here, is attack trump and insult those who don’t think he’s satan.
why did you vote against obama
twice? what policies did he advocate for, for which you think mccain and romney had better ideas?

You need to think about who deserves your support.
If you look at Trump’s life you’ll see the pattern.
