    I can't imagine saying that with anything in regards to voting rights. It should only be a qualifier for a profession that requires...integration.

    Please point to a post where I remotely imply this.

    Democrats like the idea of government taking over the energy sector. It has nothing to do with a deeper belief physics. They abandon science in a second when they need to.

    It's how our society works. People say things that are wrong all the time. You can either be an elitist ******* or convince them of your way of seeing things. The more control you want over their lives, the more skeptical and harder to convince they become.

    Democrats are the ones using the government to artificially prop up a dying energy industry with one of the lowest specefic energy values(coal)?

    Democrats are making california have the highest energy prices in the country. Democrats are using regulations to make the cheapest energy to produce (coal) more expensive. After they killed nuclear. Not sure how we got on this tangent now. The entire "solution" for climate change involves higher energy prices inflated to offset the environmental damage.

    Always ALWAYS moving the playing field.

    You say that someone should be humble enough and gracious that people are studying the effects of humans on the environment. I've taken Cal I and Cal II (that is as far as I went) and moved heaven and earth to get an A and B in those classes. Realizing how complicated these matters are.

    That turns into plumbers not being able to vote. Get a f'ing life for realzzz

    No matter what you say fchowd0311 you will not reason with some people. Some still need a few, or even several generations to evolve.

    There is no shame in not learning high level math. If that isn't part of your career, then there is no reason to learn it. There are many fruitful intellectual careers that don't involve high level math.

    However it definitely is frustrating when one makes blanket statements that involve high level math and physics that effect our environment and our way of life like Bobby while ignoring the subject matter experts.

    By the time the new rules actually get put in action...there will be someone else in charge and things will really not change at all.

    4-year terms do have their benefits.
