Main talking points:
- a public influenced by science is a threat by those that dominate the economy and dictate state policy
- corporate entities are influencing the public debate on climate change, by writing legislation for states to adopt, which target children and keep the public uninformed
- USA has no consistent policies for renewable energies; whereas 100+ other countries have
- financial system is running on a doomsday cycle. When it fails, it's resurrected again to resume its old familiar patterns, inviting the necessity to be bailed out again
Other points:
- Oligarchic tendencies of 'capitalist societies'
- Only true capitalist societies were those opened up by imperial powers, e.g. China.
- Market players do not want consumers to make informed decisions
- Martin Wolf - London Financial Times - out of control financial system is eating out the market system from inside; it's like a wasp larva, eating out the host in which it was layed; tax payers are maintaining this sytem
- Nort East part of the United States - no high speed trains, still as they were forty years ago, whereas China is attempting to build a high speed train that goes to Kazakhstan
- the financial crisis was largely due to systemic risks; 15 years ago several economists made repeated warnings, but nothing was done
- politics is nothing more than the shadow cast by big business
- corporate funded organizations that write legislation for states to adopt; e.g. environmental literacy improvement act; target audience - kindergarten to twelve grade - mandates balanced teaching, an euphemism for teaching climate change denial; in order to balance mainstream climate science; analogous to creationism/creation science taught in schools
- banks are richer and bigger than before the crisis
- Martin Wolf - London Financial Times: out of control financial system is eating out the market system from inside; it's like a wasp larva, eating out the host in which it was laid; tax payers are maintaining this system
