They couldn\u2019t make the 2\u00baC former goal stick, so they go for 1.5\u00baC this time. All on red, double or nothing. Because who really cares among the leadership, just as long as the \u2018targets\u2019 are far enough away that they can\u2019t be held accountable.<\/p>\n<p>I\u2019ve been writing the following through the past days, and wondering if I should post it, because I know so many readers of the Automatic Earth have so much emotion invested in these things, and they\u2019re good and fine emotions. But some things must still be said regardless of consequences. Precisely because of that kind of reaction. No contract is legally binding if there\u2019s no agreement on payment. Nobody has a legal claim on your home without it being specified that, if, when and how they\u2019re going to pay for it.<\/p>\n<p>I understand some people may get offended by some of the things I have to say about this \u2013 though not all for the same reasons either-, but please try and understand that and why the entire CON21 conference has offended me.
