When our dishonest economic model collapses completely under its own weight, a lot of people (and their families and pets) are going to be facing a real crisis: STARVATION. Why dont these assholes just say the biggest crisis in the world is the Epidemic of Butterflies that start appearing in Spring!

They will blame all the hardships on everything they've been propagandizing. No food in the shops? Global Warming, Capitalism, etc.

It seems like every month some high-ranking official will tell us we need to do something about global warming NOW. Don't they realize they've cried wolf for several years? The people aren't buying it.

Global Warming, Capitalism, etc.I didn't know the Naval Commander is such an expert on 'Global Warming'. If he kept up on current events, the game has been reworded to cover any weather incident of "Climate Change".

Maybe he shouldn't of been burning all those fossil fuels in the Navy for the past 35 years? Or maybe all the sortie missions & bombings in his career if he is looking to set the dialog of blame. BTW, China now burns more dirty coal then the rest of the planet combined. Are the admiral's comments a pretext to war with China's because of 'global warming'?
