Didn't you tell me that the right cares about climate change? It's hard to keep up with your mood shifts.
I believe my point was that there is congressional disfunction because we lack consensus, and our political system requires a lot of consensus to get things done.
When did I say I didn't want to change the system?
Yes, you like to enjoy the privileges you have while feeling superior to everyone who wants change.

Real change would involve a scenario in which you earn about 30% less than now, and there are minimal if any future increases for you. You good with that?
Right. Hop in the limo.
It’s okay. You just had the misfortune of being born into a situation where you couldn’t really desire true meaningful economic change. We’re all conflicted about that... terrible privilege it is. But we bear it. Kudos to you on adopting right wing talking points about the wisdom of the market when someone starts prattling on about “intrinsic valuations.” That’s the spirit, old boy!
