It should never be used to subsidize negligence especially when that negligence causes human suffering.
that link is to India.
Only repugnant losers think the growing social programs can be sustained without destroying this nation.
What I'm getting here is that on earth you consider virtually all hydrocarbons to be the result of life, but in other locations of the solar system with many times the amount of hydrocarbons, you're say what, the origin is probably not life?
The used real world data collected from 100's of Tesla owners worldwide. EV batteries are more that adequate to qualify as practical and last 200,000 miles or more. Can you say that about the average I/C dinosaur?
We don't "consider". On Earth all hydrocarbons come from life. We know that without a doubt.
I have a truck that's 14 years old that is more advanced than the state of the art electric car today.
Only 14 years old?
Well I've got to give it time.Only 14 years old?
I'm still driving my 35-year old Nisan 4x4 pick-up. It has just over 350,000 miles on its second engine, and it barely gets 10 miles per gallon on a good day. It's biggest advantage, however, is that it contains no computers. It is a vehicle I can maintain because I do not require any of the diagnostic equipment that vehicles require these days. Granted, it has been designated my "trash" truck, but that is only because I use it regularly to haul my household trash to the landfill (I don't get trash services). It has also gotten me out of deep snow on occasion when my sedan was unable.
That luxury of absolute certainty has always been something that I've never been able to afford. Maybe someone else can weigh in on this, as to why is it that we say all hydro carbons on Earth come from life, but at the same time we also say that many more hydrocarbons on Titan and Io are simply formed by other means over time.
And when exactly will oil end?
Then banning abortion is a human rights abuse. It’s a human rights abuse to stop me from punching Elon musk in the face because my religion says the only way humanity can be saved his by punching Elon musk in the face once every decade. No science can disprove this.
So you find yourself unable to field an actual argument?
The hydrocarbons on Titan are mostly liquid methane because it is very cold there. Too cold for life as we know it which requires liquid water. Some scientists do think there maybe organisms that live off the methane but that is just theory. We have a much better understanding of where the hydrocarbons on earth came from.
Economics is a global science. A subsidy here means the same thing as a subsidy in India.
A global climate change denier that believes poor people shouldn't have children and that social programs are the root of America's problems. What a waste. Adios.
Whatever. So the oil companies don’t receive any money from the US taxpayers. That was my point
Good idea. We could start with poor Jews, then move on to Gypsies and others.
Just keep saying it, still doesn't make it true.
We spend more on social services than anything else. I pay over $20k annual in taxes and am pretty damn tired of it.
Wait a minute tax subsidy what's that? A text break isn't the subsidy that's just not stealing.Just keep saying it, still doesn't make it true.
"The United States provides a number of tax subsidies to the fossil fuel industry as a means of encouraging domestic energy production. These include both direct subsidies to corporations, as well as other tax benefits to the fossil fuel industry. Conservative estimates put U.S. direct subsidies to the fossil fuel industry at roughly $20 billion per year; with 20 percent currently allocated to coal and 80 percent to natural gas and crude oil. European Union subsidies are estimated to total 55 billion euros annually."
That's right. Deny reality and go off the deep end. A person cannot have a decent debate with people who poison the debate like you.
Well, break it down for us. I think you will see of you actually read it, that the truth is different than you believe.Just keep saying it, still doesn't make it true.
