Power Line - The Green Swindle
If you've had a hard time keeping up with events related to the exposure of the global warming hoax over the past year, tune in to tonight's special edition of Hannity on Fox News at 9:00 p.m. (Eastern). The show is devoted in its entirety to the rise and, we hope, the fall of the hoax. It should make for a valuable contribution to an issue that, unfortunately, remains of political relevance.[May 2009]: Charlie Munger's Thoughts on Just About Everything (BRK-A)
On ethanol: "Ethanol is quite possibly the stupidest thing ever invented by rational people. The ultimate social safety net -- which is a very good idea, by the way -- is cheap food, and ethanol production is destroying this. It was a monstrously stupid idea like I haven't seen before."U.S. Western States Have Cap-and-Trade Emissions Plan
On cap and trade: "It's an absolutely insane idea. I mean a really, really stupid idea. If everything [global pollution] was contained to one country, it might work. But it isn't. Do they think China will stop polluting and go back to student labor? Of course they won't. It's insane. We're being distracted by stupid things that have been popular in the past."
Onboard for carbon trading, for now, are the states of California and New Mexico in the United States and British Columbia, Ontario and Quebec in Canada. The five jurisdictions are home to 64 million people.

Ethanol causing high food prices is a lie and a hoax. WHOLESALE prices for corn and wheat on the WORLD market are ridiculously low, almost nothing of the money paid for processed food pays for the farmer's corn. Farmers have been PAID by government NOT TO PLANT CORN due to OVERproduction before, and have had to destroy corn before.
Saying "don't produce ethanol it will cause corn prices to rise" is just as socialist as "produce ethanol from corn to reduce oil imports". Nobody except the producers should be allowed to determine the price and purpose of corn. If someone has a PROBLEM with that, he can plant and harvest his OWN corn, then he can control price and purpose of it.
