Rod, you believe the bs you read. I don't. It is worse for you because you have believed a hundred links on the subject already.  Since you are so easily swayed you have even less general knowledge to help you verify whether you are reading facts.

The GOP Agenda

Here's a couple of things we might learn.
1) Our politicians are honest. They won't deceive us or lead us astray. They surely won't do things that are only in their self-interest.
2) And by now we know that experts write constantly. The things (links and articles) they write are fact! Politics, economics, you read it, you believe it!

Living In A Red State Shortens Your Life Expectancy

Posted By Mel Maki

A few years ago, a couple (AHEM!) of people here tried their best to argue my statistically small chance of screwing up with my gun was actually the same as that mixture of people no matter how much I trained! They claimed the odds were against me! Even though that group included plenty of unsafe (!) people.

You are just stupid to believe this nonsense. I can imagine the conversation. "Nobody is dumb enough to believe this guy is the advisor."
"Give it a shot. You might be surprised."

Gee, the things that Liberals, Leftists, and Greenies never consider

Posted By Mel Maki

Yeah, I can hardly wait until the gov comes up with ways to force us to buy electric cars. The quality of the cars will not be the determining factor. The number of liberals elected will be the determining factor.

I don't know when you have seemed more simple-minded. Why do you think a guest on a show that I doubt one in two hundred people watched has any say in the gov? If a person is on a show he can pull the levers of government? Rod? Earth to Rod?

Yeah, the industry beat on doors in DC saying. "Hey government, if you don't force us to replace our cars with your kind of electric cars, we will see that you guys in our gov are in big trouble! We are making good money and that needs to change!"

Yeah, and the Dems did not even want to go down this road. The Republicans made them do it.
