GREEN DEAL: A fiasco

| August 26, 2022 1:00 AM

Why should the U.S. citizens be forced into buying electric cars, paying more for gas, electric, and all fossil fuel usage, when we are the lowest in having a “carbon print.” China is building 43 HUGE coal fired plants, Europe and Germany are now going back to coal, due to Russia decreasing their gas supply, India is at least contemplating building more plants. Biden is adding more taxes on coal, natural gas, and oil production. Who do you think pays for that? Yes, you and I do. The “New Green Deal” is estimated to cost trillions. You and I will pay for it, as all businesses will trickle their expenses down to the consumer.

Trump, as a businessman and not a politician, knew this.

Our government is not learning from other countries, as to what happened when they tried cutting fossil fuels. Blackouts, and not being to afford heat or air conditioning are the results of their climate cult ideology.
