Good point, Paul, I agree. That is wrong in so many different ways.
Mooseroo, the only problem with that guy's approach, is that he moves too fast and makes some folks uncomfortable. He does a great job of slicing and dicing, and makes his point very well.
I think the point made in the utube vid, and by the transparent ethanol initiative, is that this stuff is happening ALREADY. The rich are already ignoring the poor - see the riots in Mexico and Italy over price increases in corn / tortillas and wheat / pasta. Climate change will only benefit the rich, as during times of stress the stronger become even more strong. Acting now is the big positive, not negative.
When you diet with a tiger, the tiger eats last.
Holdfast, the geek in the movie said that global depression would happen regardless of whether this whole climate change thingy was true. His point was that a whole other world of crap was there as well. Watch again.
