Well I think is they don't quote economists. They just say that economists make this claim without actually referencing any real economists. Most real economists agree that the problem with the model is that discretionary spending on energy was nowhere near as elastic as the original model suggested. But you hit the nail on the head. When this model was originally proposed it was assumed that people had a great deal of power to make decisions about how much energy they bought and where they bought it from. When you look at it from that point of view even the conservatives were in favor of it. The model made sense But it quickly became apparent to most sane people that as you say, there really wasn't a lot of room to stretch or alter spending around energy. You could put on as many sweaters as you like but the reality is you still need to heat your home in the winter, that's not a choice. Not everybody could rush out and afford to buy an electric car. Public transit is a great thing but mom's still wound up needing to take their kids to hockey practice and to go buy groceries I carrying a whole bunch of groceries home for your entire family on the bus just wasn't practical. People could make little changes, but at the end of the day their energy consumption remain largely static and any changes they did make only made small differences. Bottom line is we've been paying the tax for 10 to 20 years now depending on where you live and climate change hasn't changed one slight bit.

The left has largely dominated our culture recently and they really dictated who can and can't speak out. Men, especially those evil white men are the scourge of the universe and the most terrible thing that's ever happened. The responsible for women oppression, slavery, gonorrhea and those great big spiders you find in your garage. So men have become afraid to talk. It's not worth it. You be attacked and you may even be fired from your job for saying the most simple things. Women still have some freedom to speak. They're harder for the lefties to attack. They are harder to shut down. Which is why you'll see women stepping forward more than men in this day and age.

Frankly it's a dumb article. The author sounds like the point is panicking. Are there suggestions of a so-called better way are Completely retarded. Play for time? What the hell is the point of that? He's going to be in power for 4 years. Pray upon his weaknesses? Does the author think this is some sort of 1970s kung fu movie? It doesn't mean anything. Summit it's a suggestion to respond to hostility with hostility that's rarely the best way to go especially with trump Working together is a dumb thing to say. Obviously it's advantageous for everyone to be on the same page but that's not actually a methodology of addressing this kind of thing And stand up straight it's just absolutely childish. The way you deal with trump is relatively simple because at the end of the day trump is relatively simple. You ignore the threats, you acknowledge his concerns, you offer him praise direct or indirect (Of COURSE we want to sit down and resole any concerns such a great friend like President trump has, he's just looking out for his people!" and Above all you will build a relationship because that's what he's all about. Smart people get this Then you genuinely negotiate, you look at the concerns and you address them as best you can. We do have a very real problem with bad actors sneaking into America from Canada. There may be fewer of them doing it but the ones doing it that they're catching are the really bad guys that America really doesn't want. All we need is talented negotiators to deal with this. Not brain dead Dillards With useless pithy sayings

You did and they got shot down. It only involved Texas, and made a huge number of assumptions and really was mostly useless

You obviously do a great deal. You constantly come up with sexual fantasies about me when you lose a discussion or believe you do. Then there was that time you spent almost a month or posting ass p*** and insisting you were imagining it was me You constantly do it. You incessantly bring up sexual fantasies about me all the time And once again here you were the one that brought it up here. I think you've got this weird subservient thing going on where if you feel someone's beating you you imagine them dominating you or something.

That's exactly how debate works. What's the matter robo, Just realized he's telling the truth and can't prove that he isn't? If you want to just count his evidence then I'm afraid you have to provide counter evidence. That is absolutely the way that debate works Sorry, your opinion is useless without proof

I don't recall celebrating anything It's a little early for you to go off the rails and start making false statements isn't it? However you also have to Remember who keeps the money. And it's the same American taxpayer. The money goes to the government and either reduces deficit or allows them to reduce taxes in other places. And you're assuming that the products can't be purchased somewhere else or made in America for less than the tariff amounts. Which is why I said it's not so simple. That's very true, it would probably affect the rich more than anybody. Consumption taxes are like that and it's basically a consumption tax. At the end of the day though tariffs aren't desirable. Tariffs are a bad way of doing business and getting what you want. Sometimes they're the only way and sometimes they're expedient but the reality is they're not a great idea. But they're not quite the disaster some suggest they are. For sure. This is about negotiating position.

Ahh.. So Greta Thunburg then.

Dead people frequently do that With the situation with mail-in ballots and such ballot harvesting was a lot easier in 2020. The democrats had a tougher time stealing the election this time

You don't have opinions, you have hysterics

Pretty obvious to see why the left would choose to see it that way. You'd be right if they had taken responsibility for what they had done, then this would just be rubbing someone's nose in it instead of moving on. But seeing as they chose not to this is 100% about her and is 100% valid criticism I think we can all smell that gas you're lighting and it stinks

I didn't know Kamala Harris had a cowboy hat

LOLOL Wow, you're STILL butthurt over the last time i made you look stupid? Usually that's when we see you skulking around after me on various threads trying to patch your shattered ego back together by randomly attacking me Its' been a while! Glad to see you back, it's been boring only having exflyer and black dog to beat up on regularly

For sure. Why would you give up a free lunch? He spent a quarter Million Dollars On Gourmet airplane food a short time ago. You think he wants to pay for that out of his own pocket? And he's funneling tons and tons of money into various groups that he will sit on the board of and make tons of money after he gets out. Of course he doesn't want to give it up The question will be when is jag meet john with him? Drag me gets his pension in February, and jag need has to know that there is no chance of the NDP doing well if they make it to the actual election date and people still perceive them as being part of this alliance and he still propping Justin up. Realistically the spring budget is the only time other than the actual election date when we could go for various practical reasons. We'll see in a few months if the NDP is willing to actually bring trump down after February

To do much worse you would actually have to deploy nuclear weapons on our cities I think It's hard really to know. I think people in the western more flexible and more likely to change parties given a reason. But it seems that this time out even substantial portions of the east have realized that Justin and the liberals and the NDP allies have got to go. The latest polling from abacus show is the liberals down at 17% which is basically extinction level support for them We will see. But unfortunately between now and when the next election happens the liberals are still moving forward to siphon as much money out of our pockets as possible for their own personal benefits with no benefit to Canada. Even if we get rid of them tomorrow they will walk away from this filthy rich with our cash and there's nothing we can do to stop it.

Of course it was and everyone can see it. I know you think that you are the Matlock Arguing in a courtroom, but honestly You're more like Urkel In a WWF cage match Oh so you don't pay attention to what you say either. Can't blame you I haven't but it's always amusing to see you arrive at the weird "Having bizarre fantasies about Cdnfox" stage of your mental meltdown

You know what it's like with black dog. It takes two posts to prove that he was wrong and then four pages for him to get over it

I'm sure you hear that a lot And I'm absolutely loving that you're now desperate for me to be homosexual for you Can't we find you a boyfriend in the real world? Like if we paid money and put a bag over your head or something? I feel like it might really help to calm you down 🍿🍿🍿 [munch munch] 🍿🍿🍿

Awww look at you admitting you were wrong again LOL its always your fall back when you know you're spouting bullshit and you want to make it seem like your stupidity is someone else's fault Nice to see you're still getting lots of use out of that mirror Yep. And it's obvious to everyone. Nobody really cares about your opinion on the subject First off it wasn't my point so that's a pretty stupid thing to say. You asked someone else for proof and I provided you proof. You then went on your usual little game of pretending that no proof have been provided when in fact it had. So I provided even more. And now you're completely backed into a corner and you wanted to be my fault. Sorry kid, I'm afraid you can't talk your way out of being a loser this time. Not that you've been terribly successful to this point either.... No, no, and because you're hilarious And they seem to annoy you which is a bit of a plus At the end of the day you think that you're here to discuss things. Let's be clear. You're here because you are the comic relief

His kindergarten teacher? Probably the last time he saw one of those.....

Hi yes, your usual sexual fantasies that always show up when you're losing and feeling bad about yourself. I call you an RC car and you think sex toy? Christmas morning must have been really interesting at your place

Obviously not. And everybody knows it. But as usual you run like a, well, dog with its tail between its legs when confronted with the truth Oh you knew it was true from the beginning. You just like to do what you can to avoid dealing with the facts and the truth for as long as possible And once again it turns out you're wrong and once again you wanted to be my fault ROFLMAO!!!!!! Wow, i haven't heard the "i knew all along i just wanted to see if you did" argument since grade school LOLOLOL Pathetic So you admit that all you do is sea lioning to try and avoid dealing with the facts. Well there you go It's 100% true, like everything else that you disavow and then when proof is provided suddenly claim that you knew all along Awwww Muffin! Got caught being wrong and buthurt again huh? Poor little guy

The funny thing is you already knew this when you originally proposed the question. All your sea lining is just for show. And it was perfectly clear from the first quotes I provided that this was the case. The problem is you're lying sack of shit and everyone is aware of it. So nobody takes you too seriously to begin with. Everyone knows that even if you're provided with absolute proof you're going to ignore the proof and do everything you can to avoid dealing with the actual subject. So back to the original point, as you can see there are already marxists in the house and senate. @gatomontes99 was right, you were wrong. Cope harder.

Beaverton thinks it's a joke. But the fact is this is going to be 100% Trudeau's fault and people are going to absolutely understand that Come the next election.

Oh kid. We both know you're just a toy that I amuse myself by playing with until I'm done. It's not like you're a real person 🍿🍿🍿 [munch munch] 🍿🍿🍿
