Thomas Paine's version of "you didn't build that":
"Separate an individual from society,and give him an island or a continent to possess,and he cannot acquire personal property. He cannot be rich. So inseparably are the means connected with the end,in all cases,that where the former do not exist the latter cannot be obtained. All accumulation, therefore,of personal property,beyond what a man's own hands produce, is derived to him by living in society; and he owes on every principle of justice,of gratitude,and of civilization,a part of that accumulation back again to society from whence the whole came"

“IS CLIMATE CHANGE A HOAX??!!” Bernie Sanders Uses Senate Hearing to DESTROY Donald Trump
***********************************
Thank you, Senator. I have been on this bandwagon since 1980.
Some brave, sensible American president should have announced the Energy Race decades ago. We should have led the race to sustainable energy, not fought to avoid it. But the message is falling on deaf ears and will continue to dd so until we get someone in power who actually can read and understand simple reports on climate change. That will not be oil company executives.
It is pathetic that today money is more powerful than appeals to morality, ethics, the future, the environment, and the well-being of humans globally.

During a Senate hearing on oil & gas drilling in Alaska’s Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, Bernie Sanders brilliantly destroys Trump’s failure to act on climate change while arguing against the drilling!
