    Why the fuck would you even consider signing anything to that fat orange shit? Every single one of his administration just made a mockery of you last month

    Ask Chuck Schumer. He insists he's got his reasons.

      Ok, but what if we leave the minerals in the ground and preserve the world's most fertile and productive agricultural land instead of poisoning it with mining runoff?

      Chernobyl was bad enough... It's like they want humanity to starve.

      Quite a few members of the Trump Administration, including his Secretary of Health and Human Services, are avowed eugenicists.

        Nope, we don't. This talking point is about a decade out of date. The solutions are all sitting right there without building any new nuclear.

        The argument behind this book revolves around cheap, durable, and at-cost managed utilities with the capacity to shepherd renewable energy in a manner that replicates the need for base load.

        The problem with this as a solution comes down to an unforgiving contradiction - this solution does not create high rates of profit. Without high-profit public works, you don't get buy-in from the financial sector. And without financial sector buy-in, you don't get business administrators willing to engage the private sector in construction, development, and maintenance of these systems.

        The book doesn't mint enough new billionaires, so it won't be accepted as a solution in a western free market system.

          Around here they build shopping malls over the most fertile land we have access to instead of using it to grow food for the millions of people living right next to it...

            Because, unlike Trump, he wants his constituents to stop dying.
