Biden channels insanity on climate change

At the recent debate between Democrat candidates Bernie and Joe, both of whom should be dead according to Joe's new corona virus advisor, Joe Biden said this about climate change:

“The single greatest threat is climate change to our national security. As populations have to move because they can no longer live where they are because their islands are sinking, because you saw what happened in Darfur with the change of weather patterns. It causes war. It causes great migrations.”

It's insane to say that in the face of a world wide pandemic, Islamic radicalism, and Chinese imperialism that our greatest threat is the Earth naturally warming; few people are aware that right now the Earth is significantly cooler than it has been for most of its history.

There is no mass migration from sinking islands.  Even if every person who lived on the few tiny islands that might sink--due to ocean rise that has been going on since the 19th century long before man could have impacted the climate--it wouldn't constitute a "mass" migration because there are so few of them.

The huge waves of migrants we see are fleeing from socialist caused poverty and the war in Syria not because the average temperature in some places has gone up a few tenths of a degree--remember the left is panicking over a possible 2 deg rise in temperature over the next 80 years.

But the policies that Biden supports to "defeat" this threat will drastically increase energy prices which is a highly regressive tax on the poor--the poor spend a higher fraction of their money on energy than do the middle class or the rich-- and it will tank the economy returning us to the Obama years of high unemployment and nearly non-existent economic growth.

That is it'll hurt you but it will make the uber rich white folk the Democrat party caters to feel good about themselves.
