The same politicians that jet all over the world with their families and entourages whenever they want (in a time where modern communications are supposed to allow us to work from home) want to tax us to force us to reduce OUR carbon footprint.  And with never an indication of specifically how many degrees the earth's temperature will be reduced, of exactly how effective their measures will be, or have been, if we follow the accords they sign.  Maybe pulling out is not so daft after all.
