Insanity at it's best. The sooner the Dems are out if office, the better. 

 

The Biden administration has made a precedent-setting arrest related to anti-climate change activities this fiscal year, highlighted in a new report that shows a ramped-up enforcement effort against environmental offenses.

On Thursday, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) issued a final report on enforcement efforts under President Biden, which detailed how climate-related penalties were enforced this fiscal year.

The EPA worked to implement the American Innovation and Manufacturing (AIM) Act, which requires the agency to reduce hydrofluorocarbons, a synthetic compound commonly used for refrigeration or air conditioning, by 85% by 2036.

The AIM Act led to the arrest of Michael Hart, of San Diego, in March on charges related to "smuggling potent greenhouse gases," highlighted in the EPA report. The charges marked the first-ever greenhouse gas-related arrest issued under the AIM Act, but according to an EPA press release from earlier this year, "it will not be the last."

I think the Trump Administration should pass an act that prohibits government officials from chartering personal flights, anywhere.  They want to fly, they fly commercial.  Also, celebrities and corporations are capped at 10 a year.  All in the effort to reduce carbon emissions.  Otherwise, fly commercial.

I'm all in. But let's not stop there. The government should take complete control of all modes of transportation. They can call it the US transportation industry, and they can tell us when and where and how people are allowed to travel. Get rid of air travel and gas powered vehicles, and make train schedules and locations where those trains can come and go from and to and what times we can travel. Then they can build a bunch of ovens and keep the population "clean". 

Democrats would rejoice.
