Delusional, debt-addled governments risk implosion through impossibly expensive fossil-fuel reduction schemes that citizens fight refuse to pay for. Welcome to Green New Deal logic

Awash in debt, governments are mindlessly pouring trillions into green energy schemes that are not having a material impact on emissions reduction…and despite the cacophony of climate change threats, we are seeing pushback by citizens who have had enough of being held responsible for theoretical musings about what future climate scenario might unfold. Read on…

  1. Disingenuous world leaders STARTED giving $ to “green” causes, which begets “green” causes demanding MORE $$$$. This whole charade should NEVER have been started. The whole charade is built on an entirely FALSE premise.

    The “green” “global warming” charade is similar to the marijuana charade. Legalized marijuana STARTED with the “moral” and “ethical” argument that POT is … medicine. No it’s not. OK … yes, it is a medicine in the same way alcohol is a medicine which simply dulls your senses and makes you “forget” your pains. After the camels nose of medical marijuana slipped into the tent, and every kid in my neighborhood had a medical marijuana card and bought their dope in the open daylight. Without Mom or dad’s approval. Once that happened, then everyone shrugged and said WTH!? might as well legalize it.

    A similar thing is happening with “green” policies and “global warming”. The FAKE narrative has penetrated the consciousness of the public, and now it’s time for BIG GREEN to double-down on their hysteria. So now it is a “moral” imperative to “go green”. Which means … forcing you into EXPENSIVE behaviour, taxes, and energy generation … for the “good” of the planet. Rubbish. The entire premise is Rubbish. Now, the FALSE premise is a distant memory, while we squabble about how many $dollars we will give up … to “save the children”. Puhleeze?

    The moral of the story is to NEVER accept FALSE premises … no matter how warm and fuzzy they sound. Once you’ve bought the lie … then It is only a matter of how much $$$$ the government will nick off the citizens. Money that will all go into the pockets of their cronies, which allows them greater political power. Have we lost the ability to QUESTION EVERYTHING!? Global warming due to a small increase in a tiny fractional component (Co2) of our atmosphere is nothing more than conjecture. There IS NO PROOF of CAGW. Yet we have granted the government – through our votes – the permission to use this ruse to extract more $$$ from us. We all deserve to suffer for being so Science-illiterate.

    The general public are acting like victims/followers of some cult leader like Jim Jones. Desperate to feel “saved” from some mythical threat. Cult members who freely trade everything they own for the promise of Nirvana. For Christ’s sake, have we all lost our collective minds?

    Take a lesson from CA’s “high speed” train. The cultist voters of CA desperately wanted to be SAVED by a train! “Save me, Jerry!” A train with a ZERO chance of actually being built. But the “HOPE” for some “transformative” Euro-like train caused voters to say “yes”. So after $B’s have flowed into the pockets of Dianne Feinstein’s husband … the CA voters have exactly SQUAT. AND finally, quietly, Gov. Newsome killed the stupid project. Wake the hell up, fellow citizens. The government … and especially “green” Socialists … aren’t gonna “save” anyone from anything.

  2. Kenji, the climate change scam plays into what I have been saying for decades now, people are stupid and getting more so as the years go on. And yes Kenji, we have lost our collective minds. All we can do is what man has done for thousands of years when it comes to the climate, adapt.

  3. The carbon tax. It’s the tax that could save the world.

    Economists say a carbon tax is the best way to solve climate change…

    “Nordhaus, one of the first economists to consider the role of the changing climate in economic growth, pioneered a climate-change model that estimates the social cost of carbon emissions and has become something of an industry standard. But models involve various discount rates and significant assumptions, yielding vastly different estimates, and there’s disagreement about whether or not to attempt to include costs associated with unknown but potentially catastrophic events caused by climate change, such as reduced biodiversity or even war.”

    But these (industry standard) models yield vastly different results and there is disagreement. But economists all agree? A carbon tax should be somewhere between $30 and $300 per tonne. Agreement but an order of magnitude of disagreement?

    Economist to mine manager: Sir, you know I told you this gold deposit has one million ounces and is worth $1.3 billion with capital cost requirements of $400 million. It actually only has 100,000 ounces or $130 million. That’s the bad news. The good news is I think we can get those capital costs down to $300 million.

  4. ALL of this Climte change Horseshit based on the Utter Fallacy that CO2 has ANYTHING to do with warming or cooling. Atmospheric CO is nothing more than a sympton of those things. Nothing more – nothing less.

    But today its been Monetized – Weaponized & (By Global Communists), & being used as a hammer to smash Western Hemisphere Nations in an effort to kill the root source of the greatest Civilization the planet has ever seen – Capitalism and the cheap abundant energy that allowed it to thrive.

    As for renewables..?? Only one I can think of that actually is… is Hydro and we seem to be fully tapped world wide on that no.? So, the only Practical solution for ELECTRICAL Energy generation is NUCLEAR…LIke that’s gonna fly with the Commies..??

    And for the record, as has been shown, we are in fact Cooling off…Maunder minimum on the way.

    1. If the carbon tax is to be successful there can be no alternative to fossil fuel (like nuclear). Otherwise we would just transition over and keep on trucking without a carbon tax. They (the commies in government) have thought this through. Therefore nuclear is bad and a carbon tax is the only solution.

  5. Anybody who cannot explain to a man of average intelligence (IQ 100) who works for a living, believes in God and has children to feed why some scheme requiring use of his tax dollars will benefit that man personally is invariably a liar and a thief.

    People have figured out that the climate change scare is a hoax designed to rob them of their birthright and sell it for a song to Chinamen, and they won’t pay for any “Green New Deal” if they have any choice. They just don’t dare say so publicly—yet.

    They will just smile and nod to the pollster, and then go vote for candidates who actually take their side against the conspiracy.

  6. ms wynnedfarm was a pioneer in SQUANDERING lotsa $ of greeeeeeeeen energy.
    the green part primarily the colour of the cash gushing out of one’s bank acct in the form of fees (fee fie foe fum fee) and taxes and increased costs up the wazoo.
    greeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeen energy.

    perhaps we have it wrong. mebbe it’s GREED energy . . . . .
