an out of control rouge government.

Good thing that people who rant about out of control government are always so reasoned and intellectual about it. They'd never post poorly proofread rants with dubious historical analogies or anything.

Replacing one set of loons with another, even loonier set is not an improvement.

part of those who deny that climate changes naturally.

And the straw men come out in force. I am not aware of anyone sane who denies that there is such a thing a natural climate change. If that's the best you've got, you are even weaker ground.

Interestingly enough, the Heartland Institute used to work for the Phillip Morris to deny that tobacco was a health risk. While this does not make their position automatically invalid, it doesn't help that they've been involved in the past to put profits ahead of scientific fact. Are you unwilling to cast any skepticism toward their positions based on that track record of paid for lies?

I think the real problem is that if humans are causing global warming, it is feared that there is no Libertarian solution to the problem, thus disproving the "markets, markets, uber alles" dogma rather conclusively. Rather than accepting the science and trying to find a solution that is compatible with deeply held political views, it is easier to deny the science. We see the same from the Greens with regard to modern nuclear plants, which are far cleaner suppliers of baseline power overall than the current alternatives.

Considering Mr. Stallman's history of placing nothing in anything less than a black and white context, why should we be extending him the courtesy?
