And I believe the primary reason for that is climate change. Yet, one political party leader declares "the science of climate change isn't yet settled" (his words, not mine).
Escalating grocery prices are those we see weekly. Yet virtually no one sees an increase in take-home pay at the same rate (even on a monthly basis). Until we reckon with Mother Nature, we aren't going to see better times. Instead we'll see lower bank balances, warmer temperatures and decreasing crop yields.
How convenient for you, as a Leftist – just use climate exchange as a philosophical and political rescuing device to save yourself from realising how dead wrong you were, and the disastrous implications of a socialist economic policy!
