Third of all we don't know that government resources were allocated in the most effecient manner in developing this technology. It may not have even been close to the most effecient allocation of resources.

the whole point is that if carbon is man making global warming then we need a solution *right now*, damn the costs, to save the earth!

that's the socialist argujment anyway about why we're gonna hjave to pay more taxes and lower our standard of living.

I'm just flipping it and saying if costs are not an issue , then why aren't we trying to solve the problem?

Who will decide what risks are worth the investment and how much? George Bush thought Iraq was a risk and could cost us as much as $2 trillion. What about the risk of a meteor hitting us? There are lots of risks, probabilities and costs. You act like global warming is 100% risk (the earth has warmed before and humans adapted) and we have unlimited resources that will 100% solve the problem. The real world does not work this way.
