Another Day, Another Attempt to Totally Destroy Americans' Standard of Living

Hah, I was just about to go to bed thinking that the market might have a good day tomorrow.  After all, there doesn't appear to be any occasion for Team Obama/Pelosi/Reid to shit on capitalism tomorrow.  At least nothing is on the docket.  Oh, naive me.  Harry Reid wants to get the Great Sausage Factory all fired up over global warming.  What is the appropriate response?  Clicky clicky and send some capital down to Brazil, where they have made a $175 billion dollar investment in something that has a track record...fossil fuels, baby.  Gorgeous, beautiful, delicious fossil fuels.  

Or maybe Canada.  The Canucks will keep on producing hydrocarbons for us.  If we don't want them, they'll figure out a way to sell their hydrocarbons to somebody who appreciates their wonderfulness better than we.   Of course we've got several hundred billions of dollars of pipeline infrastructure already laid so that heating your home is easy-peasy-Japanesey...and cheap.  Screw that though.  Let's rejigger everything, so that we have to spend several more billions just to test out some new energy sources that may or may not work.  Awesome!
