[lbo-talk] Hillary and Me

[michael perelman]

Hillary Clinton seemed to make a very generous offer in Copenhagen.  She 
promised the poor nations of the world that if they agreed to a 
compromised climate change program the US would be willing to contribute 
to $100 billion program to help them by 2020.  Maybe I have this wrong, 
but I could do one better in the same sort of flim-flam.  I would be 
willing to contribute to a $200 billion program that would help these 
countries if they would agree to accept a compromised program.  I even 
would be to contribute to $1 trillion program -- of course, neither I 
nor Hillary have made any commitment as to whether we would put up a 
nickel or serious money.
