Dr. John Christy
October 4, 2007 - SFWS Building Noon
Dr. John R. Christy is Professor and Director of the Earth System Science Center at the University of Alabama in Huntsville where he began studying global climate issues in 1987. In November 2000 Gov. Don Siegelman appointed him to be Alabama's State Climatologist. In 1989 Dr. Roy W. Spencer, a NASA/Marshall scientist, and Christy developed a global temperature data set from microwave data observed from satellites beginning in 1979. For this achievement, the Spencer-Christy team was awarded NASA's Medal for Exceptional Scientific Achievement in 1991. In 1996, they were selected to receive a Special Award by the American Meteorological Society "for developing a global, precise record of earth's temperature from operational polar-orbiting satellites, fundamentally advancing our ability to monitor climate."
more issues on global warming and none of them has something to do about it...

Global Warming isn't caused by man, it's caused by the SUN. Even the Al Gore has had to change the theory to say CO2 just adds to the effect. The Earth changes due to temperature these people are so alarmed about ARE going to happen, no matter what we do to CO2, and NOTHING is being done to prepare for it. This is opportunism, allowing them to control your life and Make Billions trading pieces of NOTHING. Ask yourself why they would want to replace CO2 emissions, with Water Vapor?

More than 1,000 dissenting scientists (updates previous 700 scientist report) from around the globe have now challenged man-made global warming claims made by the United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and former Vice President Al Gore. This new 2010 321-page Climate Depot Special Report -- updated from the 2007 groundbreaking U.S. Senate Report of over 400 scientists who voiced skepticism about the so-called global warming “consensus”

@Nihm420 Again you are right when in an overwhelmingly well-established Keynesian infrastructure that overlaps nation to nation to nation. Free markets did exist in a purist sense centuries ago when supply/demand drove prices, when governments were essentially non-existent and the culture was predominantly agrarian.
Do I think the 21st Century society can ever return to a free-market? No, certainly not a pure one. Could we return to "classical liberalism" and flourish from the benefits? Yes

@GreenRiver72
I know I'm right.
AND even if we corrected every example that you gave just now - the markets would STILL not be free.
(Gotta love Externalities.)
The concept of a "Free Market" has only ever existed in Economic textbooks and has no basis in reality.
Free markets are "a fantasy – outside of the bounds of reality in a complex system with opposing interests and different distributions of wealth."

@Nihm420 You're right. As long as governments continue to regulate commerce against natural supply and demand, and ignorant consumers continue to use large corporate banks, which exchange currencies that are not backed upon a precious metal ...then yes there is no such thing as a free market.
