Social engineering is working as well as it never does:
LESS than two weeks after the Government ramped up the tax to curb
binge-drinking, "alcopops" are walking off the shelves - illegally. Some
bottle shop owners in Sydney's south-west are reporting a surge in
theft, not only of the so-called "ready-to-drink" mixes, which are small
and easy to conceal, but also the 700-millilitre bottles of spirits that
many young people appear to be switching to as an alternative.
Rex Newaz, of Prestons Village Liquor, said he too had noticed a sudden
change in his younger customers' buying patterns. "The [ready-to-drink
products] have slowed down a bit, but they're just buying more spirits,"
he said.
So a dumb plan to tackle a non-existent epidemic of binge-drinking not
only fails to stop the boozers, but drives some into thievery.
Bravo!
It's the kind of thinking that produced the smoking ruin of communist
Russia.

The Fourth Report of the IPCC might just as well decree the
suppression of all climatology textbooks, and replace them in our
schools with press communiqués. ... Day after day, the same mantra -
that 'the Earth is warming up' - is churned out in all its forms. As
'the
ice melts' and 'sea level rises' the Apocalypse looms ever nearer!
Without realizing it, or perhaps without wishing to, the average
citizen in bamboozled, lobotomized, and lulled into mindless acceptance.
.... Non-believers in the greenhouse scenario are in the
position of those long ago who doubted the existence of God ...

It should be abundantly clear by now that the AGW hypothesis is
contradicted by the facts/measurements/observations and should
therefore be abandoned and be substituted by a hypothesis which
better matches the facts.
