Oh, but they're a developing 3rd world country, and need the advantages that abundant energy can provide. We should subsidize them.

"A strict observance of the written laws is doubtless one of the high duties of a good citizen, but it is not the highest. The laws of necessity, of self-preservation, of saving our country when in danger, are of higher obligation. To lose our country by a scrupulous adherence to written law, would be to lose the law itself, with life, liberty, property and all those who are enjoying them with us; thus absurdly sacrificing the end to the means."

- Thomas Jefferson

"We should subsidize them."  In so many words, are we not already?

That soot drifting here from China is a sign of our demise.

Not a sign of progress?!

Of course, we are getting murky here from Obamakov's indifference to the SW going up in smoke so it's hard to tell!
