Fifty-two percent said they would support a $1 a month carbon fee on their energy bill to fight climate change, but support dwindles as the fee increases.

A dollar a month is not overwhelming support. I give a dollar with my purchases at Petsmart to help homeless pets.

I AM concerned. It is only 36 degrees, a bit of snow on the ground, and while sunny, it is unpleasant. I’d love some global warming right now.

“Propaganda works.”

Prager often mentions how amazed he is that a free people can be propagandized.

With the heavy indoctrination in public schools, I have no doubt that Americans would do almost anything in the name of combating climate change.

It’s the golden ticket for the political class.

I'm in Upstate NY....It rained this year. It was warm in the summer and it's gonna get shi*** pretty soon. The snow I loved when I was a kid...I love no more!!

In other words...nothing has changed in my 77 years...except my attitude.

What exactly would the $1/month do?

You can't stop the Global Warming Trend anymore than they could have stopped the Medieval Warm Period (roughly 900 to 1300 AD) or the Roman Warm Period (the time of Christ). And we ought to all be glad we don't live during the cool Dark Ages (roughly 300 to 900 AD) or the Little Ice Age (1300 to mid/late 1800's AD) when crop yields were low, rain was less predictable, and plagues increased.

If people who lived during the Little Ice Age are in Heaven now looking at us caterwauling about warming they'd think we'd lost our minds. And they'd be right.

Utter nonsense. Fake push poll designed to validate a pre held political dogma

It does not show up as significant issue in any issue poll. It only a issue to the radical Leftist in the Democrat party

All Propaganda speaks again.

Why post this bull sh#t? No, it does not "help us to understand more about what the enemy is doing". We already know that. It just serves to demoralize our troops by publishing more, lies like Tokyo Rose.

Offshoring our factories to countries with no environmental laws should help with climate change .

“Fifty-two percent said they would support a $1 a month carbon fee on their energy bill to fight climate change, but support dwindles as the fee increases.”

People are likely to believe any sort of thing if there’s nothing really at stake for them. If you tell someone that a new planet has been discovered orbiting Alpha Centauri, typically that information is accepted without challenge. But if they’re told “Pay me $100,000 for this patent medicine, and it will add 10 years to your life”, they’ll be full of doubts, to say the least.

One dollar today,… sorta like the income tax was 100 years ago. My God! People are stupid. So dumb they can’t look at the two biggest polluters on the planet!

> About 6 out of 10 Americans also believe that the pace of global warming is speeding up, <

Well, sure. Let’s say the media relentlessly preached that 1+1 = 3, while allowing for no counter-arguments. Eventually 6 out of 10 Americans would say that 1+1 = 3.

If the media reported it, it must be true, right?

I’m concerned that it might get really cold again this winter, then get really hot next summer. And it’s all man’s fault.

That damn 23.5° tilt of the earth’s axis messes with the temperatures every year like clockwork.

Whose idea was that anyway - Ben Franklin, I think?

You miss the point. It will be $50 a month in a few years. Furthermore, the climate change assholes should be protesting in India and China!
