    Oh, but that will all happen after the rich jerks who caused all this are dead, so it doesn’t matter! Why would they do anything to stop it?

    EDIT: Plus they already have their apocalypse bunkers lined up so even if it all hits sooner, who cares about the poors right?

      I just don’t understand how these people don’t just do their “jobs,” they always used to say they are the Great Job Creators and profits were the reward of creating those jobs.

      Ok. So create “climate friendly” jobs that will take the X trillions and make yourself profit…

      If the money is there to take and these people are so Hard Working™ then why can’t they just do the right thing AND profit?

        Because doing the right thing might lead to ever so slightly less profits in the direct short term. Everyone knows that short term gains at the cost of your future is the best course of action
