Hey puss stop with the veiled threats ok, You'll never take me or anyone else out in your fantasy "civil war". You drive off yelling at an old professor you posted and didn't have the balls to face him man to man. Get real leap, you're waiting for a crazy revolutionary leader to follow to give you courage, but it ain't gonna happen and you for sure are not going to do shit on your own.

I think there is not going to be any civil war. The Democrats are engineering a slo-mo economic train wreck but there are very powerful people that aren't socialists. When the dust settles I'm guessing that Libertarian Conservatives/ Mafia Warlords will be in power and people will have to go to churches to get their freebies. With the internet the churches can be educated to recognize the psychopath con artists that get 90% of their handouts and some equilibrium might be attained between the rich and the poor.
One thing is for certain. The left will eventually lose all their positioning on one undeniable certainty: Math. One day, they will spend us to death. Then it all comes crashing down.
Of course not, who are they going to shoot their kids third grade teacher because she voted wrong? Just far right wing wacko crazy talk by insignificant people.
The rest of what you wrote goes right along with the civil war crazy talk, based on nothing but fantasy, fear and hate with a little creative fiction writing.
I'll bet people in Greece said that once, too.
The economic impacts of climate change may be catastrophic, while there have been very few benefits projected at all. The Stern report made clear the overall pattern of economic distress, and while the specific numbers may be contested, the costs of climate change were far in excess of the costs of preventing it. Certain scenarios projected in the IPCC AR4 report would witness massive migration as low-lying countries were flooded. Disruptions to global trade, transport, energy supplies and labour markets, banking and finance, investment and insurance, would all wreak havoc on the stability of both developed and developing nations. Markets would endure increased volatility and institutional investors such as pension funds and insurance companies would experience considerable difficulty.
Developing countries, some of which are already embroiled in military conflict, may be drawn into larger and more protracted disputes over water, energy supplies or food, all of which may disrupt economic growth at a time when developing countries are beset by more egregious manifestations of climate change. It is widely accepted that the detrimental effects of climate change will be visited largely on the countries least equipped to adapt, socially or economically.

Ocean Acidification
A cause for considerable concern, there appear to be no benefits to the change in pH of the oceans. This process is caused by additional CO2 being absorbed in the water, and may have severe destabilising effects on the entire oceanic food-chain.
Melting Glaciers
The effects of glaciers melting are largely detrimental, the principle impact being that many millions of people (one-sixth of the world’s population) depend on fresh water supplied each year by natural spring melt and regrowth cycles and those water supplies – drinking water, agriculture – may fail.
Sea Level Rise
Many parts of the world are low-lying and will be severely affected by modest sea rises. Rice paddies are being inundated with salt water, which destroys the crops. Seawater is contaminating rivers as it mixes with fresh water further upstream, and aquifers are becoming polluted. Given that the IPCC did not include melt-water from the Greenland and Antarctic ice-caps due to uncertainties at that time, estimates of sea-level rise are feared to considerably underestimate the scale of the problem. There are no proposed benefits to sea-level rise.
