Is Anyone Paying Professors to Lie?
Global warming Religion ^ | 08/10/19 | Reasonmclucus

Posted on 08/10/2019 10:43:16 PM PDT by kathsua

As I discuss below, in the nineties the crooked Enron corporation paid purported scientists and environmental groups to claim that increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere would cause higher temperatures. In the previous post I mentioned that some professors may be so incompetent they actually believe the greenhouse gas myth. Those who have previously accepted money for supporting the myth may be reluctant to admit that they lied. Younger professors may fear punishment by corrupt department heads if they don't support the myth.

Corrupt federal bureaucrats seem to have taken over Enron's role in supporting the global warming scam. Federal bureaucrats bribe professors by paying for projects that claim global warming is a threat.

[Most of this was previously posted. Some of the links may no longer work.].

In the nineties, Enron executives came up with a get rich scheme. Enron owed part of its early success to sulphur dioxide emissions trading. Basically emissions trading was established as a way for some companies to profit from pollution while allowing other companies to continue to produce the chemicals that can cause acid rain.

The Enron Corporation "the Crooked E" , the corrupt firm whose failure should have disproved the myth "too big to fail", but didn't? At the time it was the seventh largest corporation. It's bankruptcy was the largest in history until Lehman Brothers failed. Incidentally, Lehman Brothers was also involved in carbon trading.

A useful reminder that the global warming scam came from the marriage of the Crooked E and the crooked Clintons.

Wo I didn’t know Enron did that!

slime.

And a great example of why just looking at earnings and P/# ratios relative to the sector isn’t enough.

I was still very new to trading and was wondering why a stock that had good earnings coming up was priced so low.

Then someone explained it to me.

This guy has found a loose thread, he should pull a little harder.

What is Breakthrough Energy Coalition?

Why is the Clinton Global Initiative, Branson, Expedia, and others so fired up to to solar power the Caribbean?

Its all out there. What their plan is, why “environmentalism” and “global warming” hoaxes are obvious to anyone connecting the dots.

Who run Bartertown? Masterblaster!

While I can’t speak for the global warming bunch, I will speak for the medical ‘experts’ who have been DEAD WRONG when it comes to what people should be eating. Specifically, they told us to NOT eat red meat - totally wrong, and they told us to load up on carbs - totally wrong, and it’s why we have the obesity / diabetes epidemic.

So why don’t they come clean? A (very) few have, and they admit that they were killing their own patients (Tim Noakes, being the most prominent).

But the vast majority of people in the medical and nutritional fields STILL give lethal advice to their patients (such as saying it’s ok to eat carbs if they have diabetes, as long as they’re ‘healthy carbs’. Good morning, there are no ‘healthy carbs’ for diabetics, they’re all lethal)

Anyway, there are many reasons they resist telling the truth - here are a few:

1) The GOVERNMENT still says that red meat is bad and that some carbs are good.
2) Given that, insurers and medical groups will follow the government, as that pretty much prevents people from suing them.
3) With insurers and medical groups following the government, doctors who want to continue to practice have little choice, so they follow the government. Resistance is very risky in that area.

As to the government motivations to continue this lie to the public:
1) Influence of Leftist groups, including animal rights types and vegetarians.
2) Influence of AOC types, who think the world will end due to methane suffocation, if another cow farts.
3) The Deep State NEVER admitting it was wrong, on anything.

Other Factors:
1) How does a doctor explain to his patients that his advice over the years, or decades, is killing those patients?
2) How does a doctor live with that thought? By simply ignoring it...the recent science and the studies must be wrong, and the untested/unproven theories of the past must still be ‘right’.

As to ‘climate change’ - probably a lot of the same. The professors got duped by the left, and rather than ADMIT they were duped, they continue to push the lie. Much easier than looking like idiots.

Gosh, it's almost enough to make one wonder who really paid for the hatchet job done to chlorofluorocarbons, an inert gas used for cooling but long out of patent.

Lehman Brothers was also involved in carbon trading.

...

Lehman Brothers started as cotton brokers in Alabama. Just saying.

The article is the first in a series of articles about those who seek to profit from what Weather Channel founder John Coleman calls “the greatest scam in history.”

Doctors can live with any thought as long as they’re paid for it. Same with lawyers.
Politicians are even worse; they’d screw a snake if you held it down.
Used car salesmen are Saints compared to the above three professions.

University "professors" have been payola whores for a very long time, at taxpayer expense.

Read the books by Rudolph Flesch, the first in the 1950's, "Why Johnny Can't Read", his second, in the 1970's, "Why Johnny Still Can't Read".

Universities are places where diversity of thought is not allowed. They have driven out nearly all the professors who do not agree with socialism.

Man-made climate change is part of the socialist movement.

Just like single-payer healthcare, man-made climate change exponentially expands gov’t power into every aspect of our lives and economy.

That is what the socialists want. They just need us to give it to them willingly....so they try to scare us with false prophesies of doom and false promises of lower healthcare costs.

In prehistoric times CO2 was times of what it is now and life flourished.

I have no doubt they are being paid off. GW research is a huge gravy train. There is nothing morally special about scientists. No doubt some of them will prostitute themselves out faster than any professional escort.

They don’t need to be paid. Being leftists, they are ready and willing to lie for the cause.

Professors are selected by ideology and paid whatever professors are normally paid.

I also think the importance of the role of professors is being overestimated here.
