MICIMATT (Military-Industrial-Congressional-Intelligence-Media-Academia-Think-Tank complex) versus climate change (and nuclear war).By the “Mother of All Opportunity Costs” I refer, of course, to the abject failure of us adults to stave off or even substantially attenuate the faster-than-anyone-expected doom of global warming, while we go on blithely filling the pockets of war profiteers with our taxes.
