Government and Politics

If you want to learn something crucial about how politics and government work, simply try to find out why the flat tax cannot and never will be implemented.  

Global Governance

From a recent news update: “Former Vice President Al Gore declared that the Congressional climate bill will help bring about global governance. “I bring you good news from the U.S.,” Gore said on July 7, 2009 in Oxford at the Smith School World Forum on Enterprise and the Environment, sponsored by UK Times. “Just two weeks ago, the House of Representatives passed the Waxman-Markey climate bill,” Gore said, noting it was “very much a step in the right direction.” President Obama has pushed for the passage of the bill in the Senate and attended a G8 summit this week where he agreed to attempt to keep the earth’s temperatures from rising more than 2 degrees Celsius. Gore touted the Congressional climate bill, claiming it “will dramatically increase the prospects for success” in combating what he sees as the “crisis” of man-made global warming.”
I believe this is a classic “Tiger by the Tail” story. Gore has now got this beast by the tail - when it turns around, it will scare him to death, for sure. Global Governance – what is that about?? Ask Katie Couric. Maybe she knows. Please.
