More From Paul Gillmor

We've got the emphasis on the wrong syllable when it comes to crime in this country. the fbi says burglary and robbery cost u.s. taxpayers $3.8 billion annually. securities fraud alone costs four times that. and securities fraud is nothing to the cost of oil spills, price-fixing, and dangerous or defective products. fraud by health-care corporations alone costs us between $100 billion and $400 billion a year. no three-strikes-and-you're-out for these guys. remember the s&l scandal? $500 billion.

I supported the korean trade agreement in 2011. they promised - when it was signed, president [barak] obama said it would increase our exports to korea by $10 billion a year.that creates jobs in america.since - last year, 2015, there was no increase, like instead of billions of dollars there was like a $100 million increase in our exports to korea, whereas as their imports to us went up $12 billion, and our trade deficit increased 240 percent.

I never said it. honest. oh, i said there are maybe 100 billion galaxies and 10 billion trillion stars. it's hard to talk about the cosmos without using big numbers. i said "billion" many times on the cosmos television series, which was seen by a great many people. but i never said "billions and billions." for one thing, it's too imprecise. how many billions are "billions and billions"? a few billion? twenty billion? a hundred billion? "billions and billions" is pretty vague. when we reconfigured and updated the series, i checked-and sure enough, i never said it.

For decades, our dependence on opec oil has dictated our national security decisions and tied us up in the middle east at an incredible price. we've spent more than $5 trillion and thousands of american soldiers have died securing middle east oil.

I do believe that oil production globally has peaked at 85 million barrels. and i've been very vocal about it. and what happens? the demand continues to rise. the only way you can possibly kill demand is with price. so the price of oil, gasoline, has to go up to kill the demand. otherwise, keep the price down, the demand rises.
Believe Oil Gasoline
The climate, financial and national security crises are all connected. they share the same cause: our [the usa's] absurd dependency on foreign oil. as long as we need to spend billions of dollars each year to buy foreign oil from state-run oil companies in the persian gulf, our problems of a trade deficit, a budget deficit and a climate crisis will persist.

A person who believes that elvis is still alive is very unlikely to get promoted to a position of great power and responsibility in our society. neither will a person who believes that the holocaust was a hoax. but people who believe equally irrational things about god and the bible are now running our country. this is genuinely terrifying.

I said this man [donald trump] is peeling back the onion of white civility; and every level of that onion that he peels back, more and more of the nakedness of rancor and hate and bitterness is coming up out of the followers. this is one of the most interesting of all of the political presidential runs that i have had the blessing of seeing in my 83 years on this planet.
