Indian Bumper Crop; Global Warming Pause
Timothy Birdnow
India has had a record crop this year, in complete contradiction to global warming alarminsts who claim warming is causing famine.

From the article:
"There is a bumper wheat and rice crop. In Andhra Pradesh, India's rice bowl, production is up 30%. Millers are offering only Rs 8 for a kilo of paddy though the MSP is Rs 10.30. Angry farmers last week threw paddy into the Krishna river. The state government has borrowed Rs 550 crore from RBI for procurement. The FCI can do little. After buying 50 million tonne wheat and rice this season, added to 44 million tonnes left from last year, it is exhausted."
End excerpt.
What does this say? It says that a people committed to free enterprise can produce a bounty, and that the hated evils of capitalism are the best means available to bring wealth from poverty. Socialism brings poverty from wealth, and our flirtation with it here in the U.S. is a large part of our economic woes. Ditto Japan.
It also says that AGW has miraculously stopped in India. I'm not sure how, given that India has been developing economically and the Subcontinent is pumping all sorts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere - including cow flatulence. Remember, cows are sacred in India and so allowed to break wind as much as they please.
Isn't this a typical leftist trap? Claim that free enterprise does not work, then blame it for global warming, then blame global warming for the failure of free enterprise, a failure engineered by your own anti-global warming regulatory quicksand. Never does the liberal think to look to his own policies; it must always be somebody else at fault. Like the rise in gasoline prices must be price gouging, not the refusal to allow more drilling and refining.
Well, the Indians aren't playing ball with the modern Luddites. Good for them! They are showing the bankruptcy of the modern Progressive movement.
