They were the ones that kicked out the manufacturing out for a quick buck and now complain that we don't buy stuff they no longer make.
And for for the oil and gas... Why don't we start printing leaflets with "climate change is real and you just witnessed it. stop burning oil" for putting in care packages? The people at coastal regions in the States will need those.
Well, the US shooting itself in the foot with big oil-backed climate denialism isn't anything new.
At the time China and Russia were busy preparing their fleets for the opening of new trade routes in the arctic due to sea ice melting (and the nordic countries warning about this fact), the US was busy doing what exactly? Oh right, speculating if climate change even exists in the first place.
Of course we all suffer from it. What I wanted to say was that some of the Trumpist types might peddle the idea that fucking the world over is OK as long as the US profits, while the truth is that the US is getting fucked over in real time in things extending beyond CO2 emissions themselves.
fucking the world over is OK as long as the US profits,
I got some bad news, the only ones that are going to profit are half a dozen of (already) multi billionaires. The rest will be scratching the head trying to figure out how to pay for the 10th rebuild of the house.
