But of all the possible proposals to do something (or nothing at all) Al Gore's market based proposals are fairly middle of the road and don't really call for much in the way of lifestyle changes or even sacrifices. I would have thought americans would be in favor of the small incremental steps Al Gore has proposed.

And since when do americans criticize people for making money (even if they are convinced it is based in lies or it is harmful to someone else)?

BTW, the majority of americans already accept that AGW is a reality, and they have for quite some time now. Long before Al Gore became the bogeyman for skeptics.
