  1. What was inaccurate? I took it right off of the National Snow and Ice Data Center. Even Kalend’s graph shows no negative trend for the last 15 years.
  2. Just like Rachael, George has sired two children.
  3. “Warning! Reading the contents of this post may result in a much needed reality check and cause and uncomfortable shrinking of ones left wing “safe space”” How’s that?
  4. And that was my point (one of them anyway). Biden says he is going to end fossil fuels, that scares away investment which results in less supply, driving up prices. Voters don’t like high prices and the Dems will learn that harsh lesson in the mid-terms, if not sooner.
  5. “The summer melt season has come to a modest end. The summer of 2021 was relatively cool compared to the most recent years and September extent was the highest since 2014” It would seem the only thing melting down are the predictions of an ice fee Arctic.
  6. You are correct, here is another The left’s war on fossil fuels has let to a reduction in investment. Less investment = less production = less supply = higher prices
  7. If that were the driver of inflation we would have seen it years ago, but no, we see it now, after the implementation of Biden’s policies
  8. Two factors are at play. One is paying workers not to work, creating a labor shortage, the other is dumping thousands of dollars into the account of those who never lost a paycheck creating a surge in demand.
  9. You are right, however that has nothing to do with my OP. Admiral Lavine is none of that. Why can’t we just celebrate the accomplishments of our first female four star?
  10. Let me rephrase. “When you pay people for not working” Where do you think all of that extra discretionary $$$ came from to pay for all of that additional driving?
  11. Where do you think the extra $$$ driving that increase came from?
  12. Yep, when you pay folks to stay at home and not to work it exasperates logistical challenges
  13. Where did the two trillion dollars for the American Rescue Plan come from? Quantitative easing anyone? Why is the cost of housing increasing? Food? Furniture? You are correct, it IS a supply and demand issue. The over-supply of cash chasing too few goods have resulted in inflation and lower real wages for Americans
  14. Yes, and not just at the pump, the grocery store and housing market as well. Printing two trillion dollars and dumping it into an already growing economy, predictably, resulted in the higher prices we are enduring now. Gas prices don’t hurt my family as we run our affairs from home and other increases in the cost of living, I pass on to my rental properties. However, I do worry about the working class who have seen their real wages plummet under this administration. (BTW my renters are professionals working at universities and they can afford it)
  15. And how does that have anything to do with our newly minted Admiral? It seems that you are the one suffering from confusion.
  16. They have plummeted to about double of what they were last year.
  17. Sorry. I was doing it from memory (never a good idea) SkyDekker
  18. Gender identity = female Biological reality (X and Y chromosomes) = male I don’t see how this simple observation could upset someone.
  19. Nancy Pelosi was at the US Capitol on 6 January. Four officers lost their lives.
  20. I’m not sure how diverse it is when even the women are white males.
  21. He probably got a time-out for informing Skydeker “energy poverty” was, in fact, two words and not one. That must have hurt Skydeker’s feelings something awful, as it was deemed a personal attack.
  22. It IS patriotic to stand up to an resist corruption and hatred.
