Yeah, Reagan busted PATCO and we still have the same mess, air traffic controllers working too long hours and too few workers. Damn lucky we haven't had more crashes.
I was in a govt union. Only thing that saved us for being totally screwed.

First filibuster was in 1851
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Filibuster
Lincoln made the jump while a member of the wig party in 1840
Funny thing was, he delayed the vote with 2 other wig party members by hiding in the back of the room to they could watch to make sure it worked, till they we're noticed and he jumped out the window
So do your research asshole

Carbon is not the problem, it makes up 0.041% of our atmosphere , 95% of that is from Volcanos and decomposing plants and stuff. So people in the US are responsible for 13% of the carbon in the atmosphere which 95% is not from Humans, like cars and trucks and stuff and they want to spend trillions to fix it while Solar Panel plants are powered by coal plants
think about that
