I didn’t realize Trump made any promises about the paris climate deal. Except that he would back out. Which all sources indicate he is doing.

it’s impossible to do business in Europe without towing the political line,

That's BS. Ours are the major corporations. Europe can shut them out but then Euope raises iits own costs oth financially and diplomatically as I am sure that sort of government action would bring retaliation from this end.

There is an entire financial strategy that has been created surrounding tax credits and similar invented incentives.

Companies have been working on it for decades. There are billions at stake.

Of course the companies that have developed strategies to game the system want to be able to use those strategies. They pick up the profits and slough the costs to the US Government and, of course, therefore to us.

President Trump promised he would get out of the Paris Climate Hoax. We expect him to keep his promises. If he does, all will be well for 2020.

It’s easier to dig up carbon credits than real coal or oil.

Palmer is correct, big companies can gain a lot of worldwide control if they have control of the CO2 credits. He spent his former career on the world CO2 circuit trying to present common sense to the globetrotting do-gooders, and no doubt learned a lot.

Interesting how the press keeps trotting out Cloud Peak as a representative of the U.S. coal industry. Cloud Peak is nether representative nor American. Its the residue of Rio Tinto's mining coal operations in the U.S. and its run by a British guy. When Peabody was sending Palmer out on the ciruit, Rio Tinto was sending a British guy to the same meetings.

Copy that to Jvanka who are urging Trump to stay with the Paris accords.

I suspect, he’ll call it a treaty and submit it for 2/3 senate ratification. This will kill the deal.

Because the global warming hoax is a real drag on the economy.

Because the climate change scare is nothing but a huge scam to do three things:

  1. Expand the totalitarian state control over citizens

    (like governments fining farmers for plowing their own land or collecting rain water)

  2. Use governments to extort enormous amounts of money from taxpayers and redistribute it to well connected corporations.

    (Solindra anyone?)

  3. And to finance wealth redistribution scams to channel money to support favored socialist programs
    and as handouts to favored victim groups supposedly impacted by climate change.

On the face of it, that would seem the best way to put a stake through the heart of this monster.

“I suspect, he’ll call it a treaty and submit it for 2/3 senate ratification. This will kill the deal”

I think he might do this but don’t be so sure it would not get the 2/3. It would start with 48 yes votes before any debate. I think there is a damn good chance the POS would pass. There are a lot of AGW fools on the GOP side.
I am already ticked he didn’t just get us out as promised leaving us squirming while he “evolves” on the issue as Cohn put it.

That really doesn't mean they wouldn't do it. I mean they've already allowed LOTS of people into their countries whose intent is to destroy them. Never underestimate the power of human stupidity.

BTW, you need to proof-read your posts a little better. :)

Thank you for referencing that article Tolerance Sucks Rocks. As usual, please note that the following critique is directed at the article and not at you.

Patriots are reminded that federal government involvement in worldwide, politically correct global warming politics is not simply a matter of opinion.

In fact, even if the whole world, including Pres. Trump, supported US financial involvement in uncountable, worldwide government spending using the excuse of global warming, it remains that the states have never expressly constitutionally delegated to the feds the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for global warming purposes, not even for the states.

The feds would first need to successfully petition the states for a global warming amendment to the Constitution in order for the feds to do anything just in the states, federal involvement in world-wide global warming politics another major constitutional hurdle.
