Data Point – Remember that Paris Accord that was never a treaty or an agreement?

us-power-emissions-index2Trump rightfully tossed it onto the ash heap of Obama’s “Arc of History” – it rightfully belongs there because it had no worth.  Obama, like many other actions he took during his Presidency, only wanted to be seen as doing something rather than actually doing something and the Paris Accord belongs in it.  What worth is there when only a President signs an “agreement”?  Nothing – the next President can do exactly what Trump did.  Obama was lazy – relying on Executive Orders and bureaucratic rulemaking which meant it could be done away with a flourish of a pen.

A limited government means that We the People lead, not a Government.  We are supposed to be making the decisions. The government is supposed to be in the background acting as an umpire and not the leader of the band. Yet, that’s where we’re at.

Look at that chart above.

Choice has made the difference.  Capitalism has made the difference.  Millions of people making hundreds of millions (if not trillions) of decisions for their own betterment, how can any government make all of the right decisions for everyone?  They can’t – dictatorial, socialist and communist governments have proven the fallacy of those that insist that “the right people haven’t implemented it yet”.

But American ingenuity, American self-interest (what the Left denigrates as “greed”) as exemplified truly by the phrase “I serve others” has made the changes that have led the US in meeting targets beyond what the Europeans only mouth promises.
