They don't care that droughts and hurricanes and floods and unseasonable freezes in warm climates have caused foods of all types to go up in price. They don't care that there's a systematic push to raze land previously occupied by bees and butterflies for drilling and "the wall", which means less pollination, which means either more unhealthy fertilizers polluting our waters or entering our bloodstreams (or both).

The only thing they care about is which political party to blame it on. They accept zero responsibility for their own personal contribution to the problem and will reject the existence of the problem entirely, if it turns out "their side" is to blame.

Good thought-provoking post.
