The IPCC in 201312-05-2019 17:56
James___ ★★★★★ (5513)	I'll be posting some links to this later on. In 2013 the IPCC had issued 2 reports. One stated that there was at that time a 15 year global warming pause. They also issued another report stating that the stratospheric ozone layer had about stop being depleted by CFCs. Then when the media saw the initial report, it obviously made the news. Then the IPCC, other scientists in that group said that they were preparing a new report which would make dire predictions. During one press briefing, the head of the IPCC would not answer certain questions. Instead certain members of the IPCC seemed to take over that group. Just like in this forum, Isn't and IBNotDaMann will say allowing for science and/or government automatically makes you a Marx supporter while they know who Marx was and was about. They routinely claim that socialism is communism. They're not the same thing but they do appeal to people's emotions rather than asking them to consider something. Isn't it funny? The leaders of the IPCC might be like Isn't and IBNotDaMann, they want to be important.

Thanks, but I want the exact wording of the "predictions" from the IPCC reports. My point is that the IPCC never actually makes any predictions. All they do is hype fear and panic over what they claim is possible. I don't think i can [define it].

Can you provide the forum five examples of predictions made by the IPCC, exactly as written in IPCC reports? That's not my concern although I see that Harvey listed them. It's easy enough to do. I find it strange how your sense of self is dependent on the IPCC. Either that or saying Marx. What I'm concerned about is if something is being missed that we might need to know. I think many things haven't been considered yet it seems that you limit things to "the IPCC said" or Stefan-Boltzmann constant. It's possible that improved monitoring has allowed for a better understanding of the heat content in our oceans and our atmosphere. Yet you know that with me I wouldn't be surprised if in another 100 years or so our planet starts cooling and would eventually go into another Little Ice Age. At dehammer, Scandinavian countries are socialist but have little interest in communism. Americans also hate those countries because they have free healthcare as good or better than that in the US at a much lower cost. Their healthcare systems like Canada's and England's is not specifically a for profit business enterprise. In the US, managing the profits of the healthcare industry might account for 25% of the cost of healthcare. The added cost of healthcare in the US makes American made products more expensive so it's more difficult for the US to export it's goods while a communist country like China is it's #1 trading partner. Year to date, an $80 Billion trade deficit with China.The trade deficit with Mexico and Canada, both Democracies, $24 Billion. People in Mexico and Canada are better paid as well limiting the deficit in lost man hours of work in the US. https://www.census.gov/foreign-trade/statistics/highlights/top/top1903yr.html

dehammer ★★★☆☆ (480)	It isn't that we hate them for things like that. The thing you don't know about those countries is they often come to America for the newest treatments and medicine. Socialism doesn't reward research into new medicine and methods of treatment. Capitalism does.

Norway has a population of 5.28 million and Sweden has 10 million. Maybe it's because they're more interested in the quality of their lives? What Americans like that comes from socialist countries: https://www.koenigsegg.com and https://www.lamborghini.com/en-en Some interesting thoughts on what might be considered socialism. Slovenia where Melania Trump, First lady of the US is from might not be so different from Nordic countries. https://www.forbes.com/sites/jeffreydorfman/2018/07/08/sorry-bernie-bros-but-nordic-countries-are-not-socialist/#688b0efd74ad And from Slovenia itself (I think); http://www.sloveniatimes.com/slovenia-25-years-of-independence-an-economic-perspective Slovenia's healthcare system might be like the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare) but is paid almost entirely by employer contributions. So if it's free to people then it's socialism, right? https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/27467813 Edited on 12-05-2019 21:01

I have no beliefs, much less any beliefs about undefined things "going on." You are the one who is preaching WACKY violation of physics as religious dogma. You are the one who is disappointed at the IPCC being summarily dismissed as a fanatical religious organization. You are the one who fears his WACKY religious beliefs being put in jeopardy and his precious faith being threatened. I have no religious beliefs to jeopardize nor any faith to threaten. All I have is science ... and math ... and logic ... and economics. I actually have some other knowledge too. James___ wrote: Very clever. very clever indeed.

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	The IPCC reports aren't that easy, they don't let just download a single file, it's broken down into chapters. Lot of pages of BS and HYPE, dozen of citations, that really don't have a whole lot to do with the topics they include with, aggravating garbage to sift through. I never read a whole report, did little more the skim through some of the more interesting chapters, like 'Revelations' in the other bible. I didn't bother with the citations after about 7-8 bogus links. It's really mind-numbing to read much of it. But then again, I have sort of a short attention span, if my mind start to wander too much, probably was worth reading in the first place...

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	The reason people ditch their 'free' healthcare in some countries, and come to America, is the long waiting period, in some cases, or it's an elective procedure (not deemed necessary). Americans also go to other countries for medical treatment as well, it's not always about cost, but the care and treatment options available. The thing that bothered me about ObamaCare, was that health insurance, isn't health care. Maybe it brought health insurance to more people, but it didn't help much for most, since it drove up prices on everything else. I got a higher premium, less coverage, twice the deductible, and a $10 higher co-pay. Most people could have gotten affordable insurance through their employers, if they bother to get a job, that offer those benefits. I've had health insurance with pretty much every job I had as an adult, cheap and reasonable. None of those jobs required more than high school equivalency, and likely never check anyway. ObamaCare just increased the out of pocket costs, for those who already had insurance, everybody else needed the government subsidy. Left a loft people paying for insurance, the still couldn't afford to use. Doctors and hospitals could charge more, since they were going to get paid, one way or another, even if the patient skipped out on the deductible and co-pays, they still got the bulk of the bill paid. A band-Aid cost pennies, doesn't require a medical degree to apply, even a child can do it. Why does the ER charge $12, for the same thing? That's $12 just for the band-aid, not all the other charges for being tended to.

I wonder how many hundreds of times these points have occurred outside human influence?!? Too many to even contemplate, I would suggest. I thought I saw a report recently (it was a real scientist (female) who was calling out hoaxers) that said polar bear numbers have rocketed exponentially since 1850: from about 5000 to a wondrous 35,000 today! It must be something in their diet: Walrus' probably. You ask (Sir [LOL] ) David Attenborough about Walrus'... Or ask the WWF, or Netflix, or DONATE to both?!? Do you see the picture here?

Does North Korea come under the same remit?

Does North Korea come under the same remit? The slave labor in North Korea is somewhat legendary to people in that part of the world. The conditions in North Korea are terrible. Basically, anyone that is not part of the military is slave labor. Even much of the military is treated badly.

Capitalism does. Doesn't socialism FINALLY always end in slave labour? No. Most Americans don't know the difference between what is what when it comes to that. Norway is a socialist country. It also has a Free Market economy. It has an excellent standard of living, free healthcare, etc. In the US, possibly 25% of the cost of health care is because people managing the money need to get paid. Socialized health care systems do not have the overhead that the US healthcare system has because like Canada it's not a for profit business enterprise. As a result, American goods cost more in the US and to export. The US has been trending towards becoming another Brazil. In Brazil, a capitalist country, about 5% of the people control about 95% of it's wealth. It has a lot of poverty. On the other hand, Australia, which could be considered a socialist country doesn't have the income discrepancy that the US does. But if you were say President Trump, which would you prefer? To pay migrants low wages or pay Americans more? And as a capitalist can look for the cheapest labour. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/04/09/us/mar-a-lago-undocumented-workers.html

HarveyH55★★★★★ (5196)	Health insurance, isn't health care. Insurance and lawsuits are a major factor in driving up health care costs. You pay a lot into insurance, vast majority of people seldom use. The insurance companies handle the health care bills, which even though the hospitals and doctors state a pretty high price, they negotiate that down quite a bit. Those higher prices are good business, since those without insurance or assistance, have to pay them, or eventually the part an insurance company would have. Malpractice suits are mostly ridiculous. People make mistakes, human nature, not one perfect person on the planet. Anytime you go in for medical treatment, it's normally because you can't fix it yourself, you fear it'll get worse, cripple or kill you. Think most people should be grateful to have survived, and suing over mistakes, or their scar is too big. It's a gamble, you live, you win, the lawyers get rich off your ordeal. Just too many people looking for big profits, too little regard for health and affordable services.

It seems that you were rambling on with random thoughts. You're not on medication are you? From your post that wouldn't be too surprising.
