The first time a government announced they would take action but not for a decade, it signalled action would be taken. This is the 1000th time a government has said "no action today but maybe in a decade". That signals no action. That's the same signal markets have been given for several decades now.

I am happy to admit this is a complex issue, one that needs a global solution, an expensive one, maybe an unsolvable one.

But we also have to admit that so far no action has been taken. And this isn't action either.

That's what I'm asking for here: let's all be honest for this thread and admit this is worthless and we're running out of time and we either need to make hard choices OR admit we're not going to fix it...
