The United Nations should set up expert groups and begin the necessary intergovernmental negotiations towards establishing alternative revenue sources, which could include fees for the commercial use of the oceans, fees for airplane use of the skies, fees for use of the electromagnetic spectrum, fees on foreign exchange transactions (i.e., the Tobin Tax) and a tax on the carbon content of fuels.
And scads of "conservatives" are over lallygagging at "today's Freeper pics of GWB", as if our political future was their adult version of living in a movie magazine world.
SHEESH!
