The Clintons have even said they have faith in the free market. My question is how in the world is the free market going to solve climate change when so many auto manufacturers make hand over fist selling oversized vehicles to oversized Americans who are brainwashed everyday to think bigger is better? It isn't going to happen. Demand will aways be there, and until an external body from the free market, the state, steps in and makes it economically unfeasible to continue production of such products that run on harmful fuels we're going to continue down this disastrous path.

We're nearing the tipping point, and we want a president who won't ban fracking? Senseless, and stupid.

That is the Third Way.
