Climate justice is for uneducated inbreeds. Hit that Democrat supplied crack pipe.
I see little willingness in the investment community to tell the DAMN TRUTH and stop peddling in false correlation. The stock market has consistently taken a massive dump each time we reach the end of whatever extension lawmakers passed to appease the business round tableās fears of default ever since Trump decided closing down the government because his precious wall wasnāt being built was perfectly acceptable behavior. The next round of kick the budget can is scheduled for March 11th. Ever since Powell and the Biden administration started questioning 9T in easy money sloshing through our market economy as a possible factor driving up costs for Americans as a real honest to goodness problem they might really need to addressā¦ The market has also taken a massive dump prior to Powellās decree. The next meeting is set for March 15 and 16th. Following the passage of whatever the next budget extension is and following the Fed meeting, the market bounces right back up. Maybe not as high, but it generally recovers. There is no indication this time will be any different.
Womenās history month? How about womenās rights & safety? Supreme Court declines to revive Bill Cosby prosecution Want more proof this supreme court is an abject failure? Abortion rights Voting rights Dumbkopf on the loose Proliferation of guns The list goes on
We are living climate change hopefully we make it out the other side, if Putin doesnāt blowup the world first?
Women are the backbone of the country and the world. They are under estimated, marginalize, discriminated against, used and abused.
The US must take action to stop Purimās invasion of Ukraine. History has taught us that we cannot sit back and wait for the fight to come to our doorstep. We canāt sit back and let another fascist kill entire communities just because he wants to.
The backlash from the willful abandonment of the peopleā¦ the children will haunt the investment community and damage politicians in ways they have yet to fully understand. Children were NOT even given the acknowledgment of their need thru a courtesy floor vote on the CTC as they were promised. You cannot, behind closed doors and without so much as a floor vote, willfully doom 3.7 million kids to a lifetime of poverty and NOT expect significant and exponential consequences in the midterm election. āIn February, the Center on Poverty and Social Policy, at Columbia University, released a staggering new report on child poverty in the United States. The study found that the child-poverty rate had increased dramatically in the space of just a month, with seventeen per cent of children living in poverty in January, 2022, compared with around twelve per cent at the end of 2021. The reason for the sharp rise was the expiration of the expanded child tax credit, which President Biden signed into law last spring, and which Congress has not agreed to renew. In the absence of the monthly cash payments guaranteed by the expanded credit, about 3.7 million more American children are living in poverty.ā https://lnkd.in/eB7S2qbD
Very apparent from the comments posted that some STILL do not āget climate changeā & view climate justice as a means to discriminate āagainst white people.ā Again, I donāt have the time nor the patience necessary to write the lengthy dissertation it would take to address your willful ignorance and fully address your educational needsā¦and highly doubt those who needed it would actually read it. Perhaps instead of spending your time on Causes spewing your hate/disinformation/false accusations of discrimination you may want to READ about it in simple terms : https://www.dummies.com/article/academics-the-arts/science/environmental-science/global-warming-for-dummies-cheat-sheet-207984 https://blog.uvm.edu/aivakhiv/2015/12/09/climate-justice-for-dummies/ ā¦Or not?
I strongly believe in Civil Rights. I firmly believe that Climate Change is real. Therefore I believe in Climate Justice and I strongly support Climate Justice.
I understand this is a horrible and devastating time for the Ukraine people. However, it would be easier for some Americans, who are also facing a horrid and financially devastating period since the loss of the CTC, if they heard less whining from Corporate America on how the Russia/Ukraine conflict is shaking investor confidence. It also pisses off liberal patriots to hear Biden and other senior leadership demand we stand up to dictator when it is Democrats who have been promising for nearly 4 years to stop Republicans! A. If investors truly want to understand the confidence blow they used their lobbyists militia to force the consequences of on innocent kidsā¦Then let investors try living out of their car, losing their home, not being able to feed their children. Currently, I have zero empathy for the world market economy whose funding is given priority and bipartisan support over the needs of our YOUNG CHILDREN! What nation on earth puts the needs of grown adults who are financially stable, own several homes.and have enough wealth to never have to work againā¦ and then places the responsibility of getting a parent to work on the shoulders of a toddler who simply wants a hot meal, a warm bed,-and a place to play! Or demands that the millions of grandparents who have stepped up to raise their grandchildren re-enter the work force! Not one that is a true functioning democracyā¦ And definitely not a society that is aware elites and their market are perfectly content shipping out cases of contaminated formula to WIC offices and tossing millions of kids back in to a lifestyle they know could be fixed if only their leaders cared about them like they do their corporate donors! I have even less empathy for elitists who are perfectly happy to decimate the lives of 3.7 million children. And thenā¦whine about their stock portfolio not growing fast enough or whether they will have price in a 25 point or 50 point rate hikeāļø Everyday I check the market, not to see how much I have made, but to watch them lose a little bit more every day of their blood money. I have learned more about how the market functions and taken more economic courses recently for the sole reason that I want to be able to see for myself the results of 4 decades of their greed and neglect when it all finally delivers elites devastating blow after blow after blow of financial lossesā¦ and watch as they struggle with their new reality when all this nationās public good will and the nearly 50 years of massive levels of corporate funding and trickle-down funding finally dries up. B. Investors are lying and they are using the media and false correlation, along with a few other nasty behavioral economic tricks, to paint a narrative of the pandemic and the Russia/Ukraine conflict damaging their profit margins that is NOT supported by the data or trends.The stocks that would be impacted are at all time highs and have shot up XLE: Energy is ā¬ļø DJCIWHT Wheat- is ā¬ļø DJUSDN Defense Stocks are ā¬ļø DJUSAL Aluminum is ā¬ļø Everyday proves that until the current stock market crashes and burns to the proverbial ground,. the needs of this nations kids will continue to pay the price of capitalismās greed with the only thing left for lobbyists and billionaire investors to stealā¦our children and grandchildrenās childhood. This week I will stand next to the grave of another student. A student who felt he had nothing to lose by playing a careless game of Russian Roulette. Why? He told many of us why weeks before he died.,. because there was nothing left to live for and he could not bear the trauma of watching his little sisters beg to use an outlet and WiFi at the corner bar, simply to do their homework. PS Corporate America go ahead and keep right on pushing, educators can play zero sum political games too. Likewise, the trauma you are inflicting on families will only push more voters (especially those Gen Z young adults), who are now watching as their elected leadership saviors starve their younger siblings, deny them and their parents a living wage, and force their grandparents into nursing homes! We are now 3 generations strong and moving ever closer towards true socialism. The harder Corporate America pushes to alienate Americans now, the easier it will be later to convince voters to support a working class agenda and demand results.
OFF TOPIC ..... Several sources... This from Washington Times..... "Trucker convoy still on course for D.C. this weekend despite previous failed attempts" https://www.washingtontimes.com/news/2022/mar/4/trucker-convoy-still-course-dc-weekend-despite-pre/ I'm sorry, but I'm not a big fan. To me, if these people start stopping up traffic and impending free enterprise to carry on around them, then a little more than a counter demonstration could be called for, especially over time. Would it be OK to egg them? Beats rocks and would probably keep them moving if they are worried about their paint job!!
Cyndi: Right on!
There is no issue out there more important that climate change. Addressing climate change saves humanity.
The climate: yesterday walking along the beach in Florida, I observed many people walk past, around and over various forms of plastic laying in the wet sand that had washed ashore. Many seabirds thought it was food. I picked it all up and disposed of it properly. Climate justice? How about a little personal responsibility.
I support doing what we can to take care of the earth, but in doing so we need to be realistic and whatever measures are put in place need to well thought out to avoid alternate implications. Side Note: In terms of energy, making the US dependent upon others, e.g., Russia, OPEC, etc. does nothing to improve the situation. It just redirects the responsibility to others, just so we can say that we do not do it. One word.....hypocrisy.
Support the environment Support womenās rights Cut off support to Florida until DeSantis steps down. Abusing and humiliating minors in front of TV cameras was the last straw. He had no right to speak to anyoneās child in that manner. If thatās the way he treats children in public, what does he do in private? Should CPS check on his children? Cut off support of Texas. Theyāre increasing depression and suicide in minors. Iām done with both these āChristianā states.
Climate changeā¦. Hmm. I do believe itās a hyped up phrase to push various Democratic agenda items, but will not necessarily really change the climate. These agendas should be thought out and planned, in increments, to ensure success. This administration is basically flying by the seats of their pants (and our dollars). They have ZERO forward thinking and will likely fail as with all of their BS.
The climate change hysteria is being fabricated as a means to secure more control by those who are pushing the one world order or reset agenda. Either way, itās mostly a hoax perpetrated on secular, liberal progressives who think the earth is god. Check out truth at. www.cornwallalliance.org
@Charles: It is called Hypocristy.
I don't support climate "justice" because the phrase doesn't mean anything. It's just a phrase used to cram down whatever policy the left sees fit.
