The global warming alarmists can't actually quote climatology or atmospheric science as their justification. They can't use the US Constitution to justify the regulations. But they propose them anyway, and what the heck, let's add taxes to the regulations of the economy!
Enjoy the story!

Here is a very good example of the libertarian principle that if there are not enough people to support something in the market, yet people are forced to support it, then the "something" they've been forced to support should not exist in its present state. Not only have the liberties of the taxpayers been dampened, but their economic well-being has been hurt. It also allows us to reflect on the fact that as times change, people's interests change.
Only the government has the brilliance and foresight to stop depletion of the ozone layer, which, of course, has not been definitively connected to the propellants in things like asthma inhalers, but don't think about that too long. Just pay more and be happy.

Oh, did we mention that the power to do this is not granted to the federal government or to state governments?
Done.
For those who watched ABC "World News Tonight" and weren't throttled by the intense interest US network news reporters and editors have over what happens in Gaza, there might have been another story that caught your attention. The TVA spilled tons of coal ash out into private water areas and private lands. But, strangely, ABC didn't really discuss the fact that it was a government agency that screwed things up, didn't mention how difficult it would be for private citizens to get any sort of compensation from the gubment from the Tennessee government.
Please read this piece, and make sure to pay extra close attention to the John Warner national Defense Authorization Act of 2007!
This tends to support what many people suspect, although one should consider that doctors don't see the people who are arrested and not brought into the emergency room because they are physically fine... Little consolation for those of us who already believe government has far too much power over private citizens.
"It's about Global Warming", as Tom would say.

Take a look at this.
Gard has been working the past two nights on a mega music pod for Christmas, but his audio program has now crashed THREE times, totaling about eight hours of work, so the music cast will have to come later, when he isn't ready to boot his computer to Titan.
For now, be prepared for some entertaining info, courtesy of the NSA. It shows how ignorant those dangerous people are.

Talk to you tomorrow via podcast!
Take a look, conspirators!
Here is a copy for you!

Crisis and the Libertarian Message
Because of time constraints, Gardner and I were unable to talk in detail about some of the issues that we were discussing. Specifically, what does the future hold for America? How bad are things going to get?
Big thanks to Conspirator Andy, who sent this along to El G Grande. Gard's STILL without power, thanks to the NH gubment-enforced energy monopoly of Public Service of New Hampshire. He'll have some interesting, and perhaps angering, stories to tell on tonight's Liberty Conspiracy Audio, so tune in for that.
But Andy has sent over this tale, another example of how, since the time of the great "Lawsuit Against the Cigarette Manufacturers", contemporary views of tort law have changed, allowing state governments to claim damages for things that haven't damaged "states" in the least.
Kind of like a thief saying he had to steal in order to save your private property, or a rapist saying he had to rape in order to save a woman's chastity.

Well done. Robert Murphy won't be appearing on a pop TV network news program any time soon, that's for certain.
Here is the link to his piece, at the Mises Institute website:
