ITA - AND that shift began (at least in my life time) with RR and has not really ended - even Clinton did it. The bottom line is no one cares about the environment - it is a dead political issue. People are tricked into thinking that environmentally friendly changes will cost them their jobs and make for inflation. I think that is a load of crap. But, many people believe that. Plus, over all of this is the oil cartels, who will NEVER allow the gnatesq. treehuggers to stop the exploration and drilling of oil. They will not stop until the last drop is extracted from the Earth.

But, I say keep trying even though it is like beating my head against the wall.
