  1. Not true. We have plenty of laws on the books to protect the environment and the people support them. Obama created this law to put Trump in a bad position because either 1. he keeps it and jobs are lost 2. he does what he does now and fools like you freak out because you don't know anything

  2. atrayaprify, what you said is mostly correct except that science does not prove anything. But yes, quantum mechanics came about because people basically challenged Newtonian mechanics.

  3. Gordon, that is true. Gravity is only a theory. Explain to me what is it?

  4. Hazzycakes, why didn't Obama put this in earlier in his presidency?

  5. We have plenty of laws on the books to protect water. This was created by Obama at the last minute to make Trump look bad because either 1. he keeps it and jobs are lost 2. He does what he does now an people freak out like you are

  6. " but investments in renewable energy create more jobs than fossil fuels" How? Also, at what cost? If prices go up and productivity goes down than you are not gaining anything and are actually regressing. " It also protects the planet" Debatable.

  7. "Fuck it, I just had to go to this moron's page and block him entirely." Ah, I see you need a safe space and love to censor people.

  8. Environmental laws should be ran at the state and local level. Also pipelines are the best way to transfer oil and is the cleanest way as well. We could us trucks that will burn oil in the process as well, your choice.

  9. What did we do before the Obama ruling? We seem to be fine before that.

  10. The reality is that this was legislation made by Obama right before he left office to put Trump in this position to make him look bad. We have plenty of laws at the local, state and federal level limiting dumping from coal companies.

  11. Mike, science is driven on skepticism. If you don't have that than it becomes a religion. People like you are turning science into a religion. As a scientist myself I beg to to please stop.

  12. Also, Exxon Mobil is pushing for cleaner energy and actually help fund for the San Gorgonio wind farm.

  13. " So are you saying that if enough scientists form a vocal minority challenging the idea of a spherical earth they should be given equal voice as the majority of the scientific community?" No, because that is not how science works. If one scientist has a theory with strong enough supporting evidence through repeatable experiments then they should be heard. In science you have the scientific method that allows for theories to be developed. Theories are nothing more than models that give future predictions and explain natural occurrences and the one with the strongest supporting evidence is the one that is accepted. Does not mean it is correct nor does it man it can't be challenged. With you example of flat earthers the supporting evidence for it is essentially null. Creationism does not follow the scientific method. Science has a process.

  14. "Uhh, sorry Mr Pink, but you're OBVIOUSLY not a scientist." I am a scientist. I study structure and dynamics of biological materials. " Science DOES prove things." Nope. "We know some things are verifiably true 100% of the time" Like we did with aether. "Also, if you were actually a scientist, you'd be fucking INSULTED at the right's disingenuous use of "skepticism" to push anti-science agendas." I am insulted by democrats acting like they understand science. Republicans want to get politicians out of science.

  15. "Are you for real? Gravity is a Theory? No it is not! " Yes it is. "We have very accurate mathematical equations that can measure gravitational forces down to a fraction! " That is the theoretical model. "What is not defined and highly theorized, is the NATURE of gravity or what constitutes those forces, and not the existence of Gravity itself! ": Gravity is the name of the theory. "It is like saying magnetism is a theory when in fact it is not! " It is though. "I am curious, what kind of a scientist are you claiming to be? " I have a degree in physics and a degree in chemistry and I am doctorate candidate in physical chemistry.

  16. "Law. Right in the name." Laws are the mathematical equations tied to a theory. Like Kirchhoff's Law or Kepler's Law. So yes, gravity is a theory. The mathematics behind it is the law.

  17. " You're giving a minority of scientists with no credentials voice over people who have the knowledge proving them wrong, " Nope. "this is exactly what the Global Warming debate is." You apparently don't understand what the debate is. The issues are how much is man playing a role? And is what is going on even bad? " No one's afraid of 'deniers', we just see through how deluded and bought off you idiots are." Being skeptical does not mean being a denier.

  18. This was legislation created by Obama right before he left office to put Trump in this position so he can be attacked by the ignorant left. We already have laws on mining to limit dumping into water.

  19. No one does which is why laws already existed to prevent it. Obama just created this legislation at the last minute to make Trump look bad.

  20. And what happened before this ruling by Obama? Serious question. People do realize that this legislation has not been around long.

  21. James, the law is the equation. With gravity you have F=GmM/R^2. With genetics you have the Punnet square. When we talk about the law of gravity we are referring to the mathematical expression attached to it. For example if I had a spring with a mass on it on hanging than the forces are gravity and the spring. If they are not moving the are in equilibrium and this I have mg=kx where k is the spring constant, x is the displacement from the spring's equilibrium, and g is the gravitational constant of what ever planet I am on. If you look at other laws you have Kirchhoff's law which is in a circuit the sum of all the currents is zero. You can explain it in words but there is typically a mathematical expression attached to it. With Kirchhoff's law why is charge conserved? What is charge? You are not explaining that, you are just seeing a trend, derived and equation for it and that's it. Same with gravity. You saw a trend, were able to attach an equation to it, and moved on. The theory of gravity relates to what is gravity? We don't know, but the theory of gravity has a lot of supporting evidence to it so it is the model we use. If you look at a trend you will also see that many laws came about before quantum mechanics and are attached to things discovered when Newtonian mechanics were considered to be right. You don't hear about that laws in quantum mechanics. You may, but I have never seen it taught as such. For example, you can find "Born law" written somewhere, but in texts we have them listed as rules or lemmas, not laws. Science was not as flexible pre-quantum mechanics. Laws, in science, can seem to be set in stone by many people when in reality they aren't. In the end, though, you see mathematical expressions attached to laws. I feel you need to study more science. "If we have plenty of laws on the books to protect water; then please explain the fucking Flint water crises" That is the fault of that local government. Noticed how I said government. That wasn't a company doing the work but the failures of government doing their job. This is also why I support smaller, more local government as the situation was isolated to just that area. But if you want to blame someone for that than blame government. Plus, that is just one incident. "then why the fuck is it that much of the natural water reserves in states like Colorado, have been made undrinkable by the fracking industry" It hasn't. Fracking has not polluted water at all. " If our god damn water supply is so well protected, then why is it that the lead levels in many metro areas across the nation, are even higher than they are in flint Michigan" Because of old piping which will cost a lot to replace. Considering how people are not dying left and right because of it than it is not a big deal. "Finally, being that you are in disagreement with nearly every liberal Youtube host, why the fuck do you keep showing up on nearly every liberal Youtube site " I listen to both sides. As a moderate I do agree with many of what the left says. My problem is that the left has become a bunch of radicals. They spew appeal to emotion rhetoric as opposed to properly analyzing the facts. That is dangerous as it divides our country and hinders progress. To give an example. In 1994 Herman Cain approached Bill Clinton asking about Bill's healthcare bill and the cost of business. Cain, to me, ask a somewhat condescending question to Clinton on what he should tell his employees when he has to fire them, but it was a question concerning cost. Clinton, in a logical and intelligent way, ran through numbers and gave Cain and answer. Cain gave a rebuttal and in the very end I agreed with Cain. But I respected Clinton and the answer he gave which is why he was such a great president Here we are a little over 20 years later and Sanders was approached with a similar question by a small business owner. Bernie's response was basically "screw you, pay up". He showed zero concern about the business owner and just wants to force her to pay up. Clinton at least showed concern. Democrats showed concerned in the past. Now they have become radicals. This is how Trump won. For 8 years under Obama the democrats have been preaching about how we are supposedly a country full of racists, sexists, bigots that are violent and greedy and that we need the federal government to enforce a moral compass on all of us. Trump ran on the idea that we aren't, and that we are a great country. That is how he won. And now many on the let are doubling down on that hate.

  22. James, I seem to have triggered you. I feel you are too immature for this discussion.

  23. Mike, I don't watch Fox News or Breitbart. Also, I am coming to this video as opposed to not watching it.

  24. Why do democrats love to play game? This legislation was created by Obama right before he left office. It was designed to put Trump in this position to make him look bad when it had to remove it. We have plenty of laws at the local, state and federal level to keep the water clean.

  25. fourdeck33, that has been going on for decades. Pipes and homes are old and replacing them is expensive. Unless people start dying off left and right like the plague than it is a non-issue.
