Sorry Clinton, the bridge isnt going to be natural gas at this point, it's just gonna be solar and wind.

Expanding fracking was a geo-political move to hurt Russia and OPEC.

You still need an industrial, on-demand power source. So choose one of the two:

Natural gas
Nuclear

Natural gas is cheaper.
Nuclear is safer.

Choose wisely.

You have no idea what you're talking about

Solar and Wind technology isn't currently close to ready to bridge the gap
 
So fracking is a better intermediate solution than coal?

It is if it can be done with a set of safety and environmental regulations. It's been like the wild west out there for fracking, so nobody has bothered to try.
 
My girlfriend probably agrees with you lol. My response is do you feel killing in this situation is acceptable? Is the murder really about survival? I'm not talking about any other crime strictly murder/manslaughter.

Acceptable? I think all killing is bad. I'm just saying, in that situation, its the result of many factors and not really because tons of people who happen to be poor and black just happen to make the choice to kill a lot. I don't really believe in free will (evidence is pretty crappy against it) so I don't see the point in villifying people like addicts or even murderers (hate the sin love the sinner or something like that). Imagine telling a suicidal person that its easy, just chose not to commit suicide or telling an alcoholic its easy. Its not, its not even a choice.
 
Hillary wins on this. Bernie is right about the importance of climate change, but his dismissal of the actual progress during the Obama presidency is too immature and too idealistic

Agreed. If Obama could have waved his hand and just deploy nothing but renewables, he would have, but that's not how it fucking works. Natural gas is significantly cleaner than coal. It is a bridge because ewe live in the real world where entrenched political interests prevent instant action from taking place.
 
Bernie's anti-nuclear stance is sad and awful

It's super clean energy, just have to follow proper regulations and safety procedures.
 
Actually pretty impressed with CNN's questions this time around. They are putting out tough questions that, if the debaters actually answered them, would force them to reckon with the difficulties of their positions.
