Those who don't "believe" in rapid climate change can have their big laugh, especially so called Liberal Democratic but the truth will be experienced by us all, in this life-time, and it will test our "faith". At least there's some semblance of flailing from AOC.
Lets have some fun and imagine a solution that allows for individual freedom and capitalism, LOL!
Did you catch Bernie's responce? he took a swig from a plastic water bottle in the middle. N'uff said.
Here at Peak Prosperity we talk about "solutions" and work-arounds regarding the Three E's problems and predicaments. In fact, we can get impatient with people who don't have something positive to offer by way of solutions. So, with that in mind, I have to give at least a little credit to whoever has taken a stab at a solution when they came up with the so-called "Green New Deal." I give them credit for trying and putting their plan out there where it (and they) could be criticized. But that's pretty much all I can say in the way of praise.
So much of the Green New Deal is built on socialist/communist political thinking that I am seriously frightened those parts at least might become policy. So much of the plan is, from my perspective, totally unhinged from mathematical and logical thinking, not to mention facts on the ground.
Anyway, I was hoping the Green New Deal would just wither up and blow away, but it's looking like more and more people are taking it seriously. Since the Green New Deal addresses the Three E's I suppose we should have a forum to discuss it. Here we go.

And it seems the Green New Deal promises economic security, free health care, and other benefits for not only those UNABLE to work, but even to those UNWILLING to work.

We might as well get to know this proposal as we're going to being hearing it discussed in Congress, the media, our neighborhoods and water coolers at work.
