Kid would have told Hitler that if he just took the Jewish gold and invested it in index funds, then paid a portion of it back to Israel a few decades later, he could morally have his Holocaust as his investments increased more than the price of gold.

It’s worse when you read his article and find out he’s pricing the suffering of millions and deaths of hundreds of thousands of Americans and altogether ignoring the suffering of hundreds of millions and deaths of tens of millions around the world. And that is only a fraction of the effects in a relatively short timeframe.
I mean, I can understand a denier being unconcerned with it, as they just don’t understand the problem. But Kid takes Climate Change to a whole new level of genocidal accounting.Last edited by Aeson; September 7, 2019, 15:35.

Second, you’re ignoring that your own source says they are only looking at a fraction of potential costs.
Third, the cost of addressing the issue are not all up front, yet you are treating them like they are.
Fourth, they aren’t factoring in inflation or cost of capital on the negative effects side either. So including it on the cost side is unwarranted.
In short, you are comparing a whole lot of apples to a variable number of highly leveraged round objects that may be oranges or watermelons or hand grenades.

Yah ... your source says it will cost a lot more in the long run to not address the issue.
