4. If only it did

Which seems to be a glaring omission on the part of FSM, if you ask me.

I know that these nitwits have convinced themselves that global climate change is some grand conspiracy to cripple America's exceptional exceptionalism by making us live more frugally, I get that. What I don't quite get is their rock bottom belief that someone, somewhere is in line for a shitload of money made off of people living a less wasteful lifestyle. It's as if by trading in a Hummer for a Prius, George Soros (or somebody) pockets some serious coin.

I know I'm trying to drink whiskey from a bottle of wine looking for some logic here, but Jesus Jumping Christ, this shit doesn't make sense to me even when I'm stoned out of my gourd.
