Your data is crumbling before your eyes. This hurts ALL America, its neighbors and its allies.

You believe yourself to be coy or funny, but you're not. If you really want to believe what you just wrote then you're as blind and stupid as Biden himself. I'm wondering when he stops rubber stamp cancelling all of the good that was done under the last administration and how fast it will hurt. You...not so much.

She never liked cleaning the sink. It was beyond her comprehension how it got so dirty so quickly. It seemed that she was forced to clean it every other day. Even when she was extra careful to keep things clean and orderly, it still ended up looking like a mess in a couple of days. What she didn't know was there was a tiny creature living in it that didn't like things neat.

That's the problem with progressives, they applaud government actions based on feelings or wokeness and never consider the unintended consequences. They only see the immediate consequence which is favorable to them, even though the later consequences will prove to be disastrous. If only they could think things through.😞

It's a classic example of Bastiat's What Is Seen and What Is Not Seen.

The moral of the story is progressives are morons.[frypan]

The United States industrialized and expanded based on cheap energy. Now we have decided to move forward on expensive energy that is cleaner.
There is the mission statement. How do we get there:

Kyoto Protocol
Paris Climate Accords

To implement:

Make brown energy more expensive
1. Cancel Keystone XL
2. Drilling moratorium
3. Cancel federal oil lease sales.
4. Ban fracking
5. Force increased dependence on Middle East oil
6. Destabilize the Middle East

Force green energy
1. Carbon credits
2. Subsidize green energy
3. Force utilities to increase percentage of green energy usage.
4. Require new construction to have solar
5. Ban natural gas in new construction
6. Ban gasoline vehicles
7. Try to make green energy cheaper

It’s not complicated as to why Keystone is political.

Profit and ideology (new watermelon religion) over what’s best for the countries interest. You know, one of the actual enumerated things the feds are supposed to do.

Opel, do you think we can put out competitively priced goods without lowering the lifestyle expectations of our workers? I understand that manufacturing in China and India isn't necessarily children in sweatshops but aren't those workers generally satisfied by being abe to afford a modest apartment and a bus pass? Not exactly the way factory workers live in the US. And I am not saying they should. I just think it will be difficult to compete with labor prices factored into the finished goods.

So because China and India don't do it, no point in us doing it? That feels a bit short sighted...

here's something, what if we start doing it anyway until we have it dialed in? and then cut off China and India from global trading by subsidizing our green technology into competitive pricing?

Pretty stupid huh? "cut off China and India from global trading and subsidize US green technology to the point of being globally competitive"? Sounds good on paper. How would you cut off China and India from global trading anyway when trade is imperative to your own growing economy, that is if you want one.
I believe subsidizing technology to be globally competitive has been China's game plan for a long time. Sounds good until it isn't. It's called corporate socialism and he wants da broke U.S. government to take the U.S. down the same leftist anti-capitalist path and make every man women and child an unwilling investor in the schemes.

Not sure how I went from opposing the XL pipeline extension because of it's proposed route to supporting a green new deal and opposing big oil and gas? Want to build a pipeline? Go for it. They're a necessity. But, you aren't going to build it through tribal lands and break the treaties we signed with them and it shouldn't be built where it can poison a bunch of people when something goes wrong unless the people at risk vote for it. It's not like this pipeline extension was an all or nothing proposal that now means gas prices go through the roof and our economy crashes. The pipeline was politicized and now that it's not getting built the sky is falling and China wins somehow. The same pipeline that's had 21 spills in nine years is currently asking for permission to double the pressure already flowing through the pipeline and it looks like they are going to get the okay. If I were living on that tribal land, which I hear is a paradise🙄 I'd be telling you white devils to go screw too.
