Stealing the Future

Western nations, first worlders, developed countries at the Climate Summit in Copenhagen agreed to give away the opportunity that their children and future generations should have had by right to enhance the power of the international elite. The Third World despots will have their lavish lifestyles further subsidized by the West with a plan to channel one hundred billion dollars to them to help them address environmental issues. Of course, like virtually everything else sent to these petty kleptocracies, the money will largely slip into the pockets of the powers that be and any environmental help will be incidental. And those in the industrialized world will deliberately inhibit their competitiveness. They will further sap their own prosperity and restrict economic freedom- perhaps even freedom of movement with new surveillance on driving habits and new fees and taxes on driving and flying. And all of this based on an environmental hoax, a scam actually that will enrich the few at the expense of the many. Man simply lacks the ability to raise or lower global temperatures two degrees, only God can do that. One Mount Etna-type eruption can spoil all our pitiful plans, but we are sacrificing real freedoms on promises we can not keep.
