How so? Give me your definition of externalities, and then give me a reason why it has noething to do with the argument.

I am talking about the billions and billions of dollars that would be thrown in the garbage along with millions of jobs. Nothing more. The Kyoto protocol is highly anti-capitalist.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)Comment

BTW, not all countries can be high tech. The developed countries already have a comparative advantage in high tech, and in services. the developing countries to need to get a compartive advantage first in agriculture, then in manufacturing. Manufacturing implies pollution.
You think that those companies will just fold? If they can't meet the requirement then they will go to developing economies, and all of those jobs will move there. Its just a switch, and it speeds up the process of specialization. For a while it will hurt the economy, but not to the scale which you are talking about. And since you don;t have any sources for your statements, you are just making stuff up as you go along.
As for externalities, you don't seem to have a definition, so let me give you one.
Externalities: a cost which is not reflected in the cost of the product produced. These externalities can be either positive or negative.
ex: A chemical plant produces waste which it dumps into the water. This waste reduces the number of fish in the water. The fisherman then catch less fish, and the price of fish goes up. The chemical plant is not paying for this increased cost of the fish. THis is a negative externality
ex2: A chemical plant produces waste which it dumps into the water. This waste increase the number of fish in the water. The fisherman catch more fish, and the prices of fish goes down. The price of fish goes down, and some fisherman lose their jobs because they cannot compete. The price of the chemical produced is not included. This is a positive externality.
Pollution caused by factories are not included in the price of the product which you buy. The negative externality in this case is all of the people who get cancers, asthma etc from these toxins. These costs are not included. This leads to a market failure which can then produce a recession."Everything for the State, nothing against the State, nothing outside the State" - Benito MussoliniComment

You are like the energizer bunny you will never quit on how good a flawed treaty is...For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

It is pretty damn obvious that India has made this transition, like the UAE (somewhat) and Singapore. If you want evidence for something this obvious I will look for it...And since you don;t have any sources for your statements, you are just making stuff up as you go along.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

1. The UAE is not a developing country. Its a oil producing country, which falls under a different bracket.
2. India is not high tech. 35% of its people are below the poverty line (aka make less than $1 a day). 67% of its people are engaged in agriculture. The US employs 2.5% of its people in agriculture. (also note that 67% of 1.2 bn is way more than 2.5% of 282 mn)
Stop making stuff up. Get a source and quote it.

1. I never claimed the UAE was a developing country.
2. A growing part of India is becoming high tech.

So first its "pretty damn obvious that India has made that transition" and then its "stop twisting facts."
You stated the UAE as an example of developing countires becoming high tech. Oops, you made something up.

If I said the UAE is a developing country I was mistaken. I did not make that up rather I was misspoke. The UAE was a developing country decades and decades ago.
You keep twisting the facts. And stop bull****ing at me for your faults.For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night.

My faults? Because you can't argue your point properly.
India exports $6 bn of software units.
The US exports $20 bn of software units
India's software industry was stagnant until the dot com boom in 1999 - 2000-ealry 2001
I agree, that a growing part of India is becoming high tech, but will they be able to compete with the big economies of scale of the western world.

I was saying India's high tech was steadily growing. Nothing damn more. Never did I say they were the size of the US exports.
