I don't understand, why would it sound implausible? Isn't that what governments are FOR?
Not when all governments have been captured by oil tycoons it isn't.
Oh. But they were good for this before that, right?
The banning of CFCs due to their environmental impacts, retooling the aerosol and refrigerant industries, is what it looks like when we have a functioning world society.
There are adults now who were born after that and don't remember a time when we could behave that way, so they have every right to be cynical.
The refrigerant industry. Oh boy.
It's what governments are supposed to be for.
Oh. Just oil?
But government BAD! Taxes BAD!
I know, the government is bad, so if we put a bad man in charge it’ll be a double negative and become good, right?
From an accelerationist standpoint, yes. /s
You ADD a bad person to the government, you don't MULTIPLY.
But what do I know about maths?! Somehow the bad effects end up growing exponentially, and I can't explain that.
