Tony Abbott struggles with reading comprehension

Rorschach and IQ have been tripping over themselves to back up Abbott's misinterpretation of this statement. Does anyone else here agree with Abbott?

Ideologues never get it right.
A tax may affect demand.
But that doesn't mean it will solve the problem.
Especially when the effect is so minor.

There are other effects as well...

In the words of the Australian Climate Change Commissioner... If all emissions were stopped today it could take up to 1000 years before any change was noticed.
"If the world as a whole cut all emissions tomorrow, the average temperature of the planet's not going to drop for several hundred years, perhaps over 1000 years,"


Of course such an answer takes in no consideration of any other changes technological or otherwise that may occur...
Read that quote again Roschach. It is not saying what you think it is.

Tony Abbott made the same basic error of interpretation. I believe this was deliberate. He is not actually an economic simpleton. He is just pretending to be to appeal to people like you. You want to believe for example that your interpretation of that quote is correct, but a little thought should be enough to show that it is not.

Here's some graphs that have been mapped by adults. You should try it sometime.

Who can understand what he's saying? He has such a serious speech impediment that no-one has heard a complete sentence from him yet.

In regard to Roach & IQ's mindless propaganda and their responses - unfortunately anger is the only response the dimwitted are capable of. When they can't articulate they bang their hairy chests and grunt.

Comprehension has always been a big problem for Abbott and many of his supporters. Abbott's inability to articulate - basically as has been pointed out before here, is the main reason Roach, IQ & Co. are unable to provide clarity about his claims.

How is Abbott going to communicate anything with world leaders let alone understand what he's supposed to be communicating. If he doesn't know - how is anyone else supposed to know?

I was giving you a compliment. Identifying you and Roach as neanderthals is certainly a lot kinder than some of the insults you throw around.

You are the only one who sooks about them.
I suggest that you take note of why they occur and modify your behaviour.
