Stuff that divides the world is often dumb, real dumb. Take the Kyoto Protocol for example. Even advocates for it agree that it will prevent global warming by .15 degrees Celsius over the next 96 years! That's .0015625 degrees per year!
How many jobs is that worth sacrificing? How much hardship is that worth imposing on the economy? How much higher are we willing to see gas prices go?
Advocates for it say it's a good "first step." Er, not really. We barely have enough fossil fuels to make it thru the first half of this century. Sounds an awful lot like a "last step" if you ask me.
Meanwhile this is a real hot button issue in the world. The biggest impact it will ever have is in making the United States look bad just because they won't bow to a completely worthless agreement.
