There is global warming research that isn't state funded. At universities and private energy companies, for example.

Most universities are state funded or heavily subsidized...

DRINKING GAME!!! Everyone drinks when he says "funded at the point of a gun".

We're all gonna get hammered :-)

Stef's reptilian eyes , heheh

[MrDarkbloom]

Stefan's videos are interesting, but I just wish he wouldn't put his face in them. I have to listen to audio only. His bald head and strange mouth distract me.

@SamNoble89 Funded at the point of a fucking gun...

@stefbot

I enjoy your philosophy videos, but I've always been supremely puzzled at anarchist tendencies to deny global warming because research funding is from the state. What collectivist action should be taken about it is an issue of debate, but global warming denial is a silly crock of shit.

Re: "I believe that it's false because it's funded through violence."

So when I studied math at a state university, everything I learned was false because of state support?

Re: "Things which have innate value are not funded at the point of a gun."

So math & science, being supported by the university systems, have no innate value. OK. What of medicine? I live down the stret from NIH. Is all their cancer research, "funded at the point of a gun", devoid of innate value?

Your ideology is silly.

@producersunnyshadows: You have to be kidding. Show me the percentage of employers who pay at minimum wage. They could easily drop wages or hire new people at min wage if they wanted, but we don't see that.

Also do you think that reducing a ceo's salary, even by a million or two would be able to finance the jobs of the millions of un/underemployed?

[producersunnyshadows]

the reason we dont let people undercut other workers because this practice will force wages down , i dont know any employer that would pay people less if they could, there is a finite amount of money in the economy at any one time and if you spread this thinner that will mean people will be unable to pay their mortgage or buy food . what you should be advocating is the reduction of rediculous corperate wages and bonuses that the executives of this world are paid. this will give all people jobs.
