Sisemen. What's with the David Murray quote from Lateline?
Simples. This thread is, or should be, about the political nature of the climate change scam. Hence the title "Carbon
Tax - It's Started". There is a perfectly adequate thread running in JB which discusses the merits/demerits of the "science".
So, the quote from David Murray, an eminent economist, gives the warning that the severity of the actions leapt upon by some governments far outweighs the perceived benefits of what may or may not be a problem anyway. And that there is, at the moment, insufficient rock solid incontrovertible evidence supporting man-made climate change.
And if an economist of that stature is telling us that we are going down the wrong track then we ought to, at least, take some note. And the bunch of rat bags currently leading our country ought not to screw us for little or no benefit.
Now, does that explain???
