Gov. Jerry Brown warned at a recent climate change workshop that trillions of dollars, the transformation of our way of life and a worldwide mobilization on the scale of war will be required to stave off climate change’s “existential threat” to mankind.

Brown also said the problem is so complex that it’s likely no one knows how to solve it.

It’s not a Brown quote. However, the whole “Global warming” movement was created by the International Socialist (Marxist) to redistribute the world’s wealth through various mechanisms (Cap and Trade, Kyoto, Carbon Trading, Green Justice, etc.....).

“Brown also said the problem is so complex that it’s likely no one knows how to solve it.”

So nobody knows if it will work, but we should give him billions of dollars to try.

So, he admits HE will destroy the California economy in the name of “we have to stop global warming” while HE admits that they (his advisers and his Eco-terrorist-academic-extremists) cannot define the problem nor accurately claim that their plan (destroying the CA economy) will actually do anything useful towards controlling global average temperatures!

Jerry Brown was born with a silver spoon in his mouth. He has always had others pay for what he wants and he cares nothing about who it hurts from releasing 40,000 and counting prisoners to high taxes and gas prices. He pays for nothing and the democrats in Sacramento have just like congress have exempted themselves.

Repeat the BIG LIE over and over, despite all of the evidence to the contrary.

What's sad is that moonbeam actually believes all of this, what is sadder still is that the voters didn't remember the old adage If it's Brown, flush it down when he decided he hadn't F'd up California enough and ran for Governor again.

LOL! And there you go. Typical Democrat - Be shrill, demand a problem be solved by confiscating taxpayer dollars, admit the problem is unknown and may never be solved.

Soft minds? As opposed to those people who want to spend trillions of $$ on a problem that doesn’t exist. So, of course it will never be solved. It’s the perfect boondoggle that never ends.

Dear Moonbeam,

You have it all backwards. It is not small government that is costing us trillions. It is not capitalism or free markets that are destroying the planet. It is not self governance that is killing millions.

It is you, the progressive, that is doing all that and even more. Your big government warfare and policies killed over 100 million people the last century. Your big government programs are sending western governments into trillions of debt. And it is the nuclear weapons of big government that are destroying the planet.

And to cover up all this death, destruction and debt, you blame climate change for doing all that you have done. You are pathetic and not worthy of consideration. Good bye.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls the climates of all its planets.

3. The earth is one of the sun’s planets.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?
