We punish third world countries with our nutty energy policy

There is no punishment against The Left for their murderous energy policy.

Yes, we can thank the Left for their asinine policy against DDT. The history of that movement is absolutely appalling.

Carbon dioxide is now pollution.

Orwell would have said, "I give up." I doubt that, he was a bit of a nut himself.

If you produce carbon dioxide you're a polluter. Prager: "What if that's phony?" What if? We know it's phony, it's from The Left and it violates the "common sense" law.

Three thousand pages of regulations in California.

Prager, I'm really uncomfortable with your using the word "Utopian" in an attempt to characterize the silliness of our leftists. Not because it's inaccurate but because as a label that could discredit the people who deserve to wear it, it's a flop. We in the Sixties made "Utopian" a word of praise, a one-syllable panegyric. It still bears the aura of "goodness" because we have yet to make the cast that a Utopian is a fool and can be (usually is) very destructive when they enact and enforce laws and policies that are meant to bring about Utopia.

You need to find a more sinister term.
