posty 2,296 Posted June 7, 2019 Ocasio-Cortez admits how much her 'Green New Deal' will cost — $10 Trillion to "have a shot" https://www.theblaze.com/news/ocasio-cortez-says-green-new-deal-will-be-pricey Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) admitted how much it would cost to get started on her audacious "Green New Deal" to combat global warming, and the number is startlingly high. "I think we really need to get to $10 trillion to have a shot," Ocasio-Cortez said in response to the question from The Hill on Wednesday. The socialist democrat has touted her plan despite the Democratic leadership ignoring it and even openly mocking it. Democrats have drawn up their own plan to tackle global warming. "I know it's a ton," she added in her statement. "I don't think anyone wants to spend that amount of money, it's not a fun number to say, I'm not excited to say we need to spend $10 trillion on climate, but... it's just the fact of the scenario." Ocasio-Cortez also faced ridicule and mockery after she released a FAQ document on her website that included many outrageous policies that she was proposing under the Green New Deal. The document was later deleted from her website. "It's not popular," said Ocasio-Cortez of the cost of fighting climate change, "it's not politically popular. People are going to call it unrealistic, and I just don't think people understand how bad the problem is." The upstart freshman member of Congress was previously mocked for trying to explain how to easily pay for Medicare-For-All, and employing very bad arithmetic to do it.

Baker Boy 1,479 Posted June 23, 2019 The Green playbook, coming to your State soon. The issue facing wind and solar is basic economics. They often cost more than conventional energy sources, and in a free market economy, competition makes them cost prohibitive. Enter the power of government and green energy lobbyists. Step one: get the state to pass “renewable energy mandates” which require a certain percentage of electricity production to be “green." Step two: define “green” as only wind and solar. Step three: despite the cost to the taxpayers, force utility companies to buy wind and solar. Step four: make huge profits, hire more lobbyists, repeat steps one through four. https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/daniel-turner-california-green-energy-pay-to-play-politics 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
