greg_ip What was totally UNREALISTIC was the trump/GOP tax giveaway to the rich! That’s the truth of the matter. That huge amount of unnecessary largess would pay for the Green New Deal!

greg_ip Beats your (and the GOP’s) usual approach, which is to try to ignore it until it goes away on its own.

greg_ip The cost of inaction is far higher.

greg_ip The cost of doing nothing will be much higher. Billionaires don't want to do anything because they think they'll be immune to climate disaster and some may be even able to profit from disaster relief contracts.

greg_ip So, we should continue trying to fix it with trillion dollar tax cuts for the rich? What a Stupid Journal.

greg_ip Order your Green New Deal car today!

greg_ip Dems want a trillion dollars for climate hype but not $5.7bn for border security 🤣 what a wacky world

greg_ip Look at that group....so fresh, so face, so devoid of blacks, straight whites, and Asians. Soy lattes for everyone.

greg_ip Remember the more it cost the more the Democrat party can steal.

greg_ip The entire premise is false. Even if wildly successful at reducing/eliminating CO2 emissions, climate change will continue unabated due to solar variability. A particularly, nasty side effect will be less vegetation.

greg_ip IT IS SIMPLY RIDICULOUSLY STUPID! DEMS who have signed on are ignorant and living in a fairy tale world filled with candy canes and sugar plums... Drink! Drink the 'Kool Aide' for you have lost your minds and the will to think for yourself.

greg_ip Thank you for The Green New Deal. It will destroy The DEM Party. Awesome!

greg_ip $50 TRILLIONS. Correct it.

greg_ip i'll have what greg_ip is smoking. go work for the DNC greg.

greg_ip The Five Year Plan was expensive too. So was the second one meant to fix the failures of the first. And the 3rd.

greg_ip Consider the sharp increase in fuel prices & Oil industry stagnation by Green New Deal

greg_ip and they have no idea as to what they are doing !!!

greg_ip If we all go broke to save the planet is it not worth the sacrifice. Of course, I just don’t see that big polluter China really doing much.

greg_ip Oh heavens! Well if the Wall Street journal, with the stupidest fucking Rupert Murdoched editorial board in the world says so, it must be true!

greg_ip Unleash American ingenuity and business to solve the issue. Not more big incompetent toxic government and higher taxes.

greg_ip Trillions for a false man caused climate change but only 1.7 million for the safety of Americans for a southern wall...How anyone can vote for democrats is amazing.

greg_ip Don't forget the massagechairs

greg_ip Get some blue collar votes! Promote The Job Corps, poor kids have to leave home, rules of hygiene and living space, behavior, they get a shot at life- training for a variety of trades and service jobs; Union Carpentry, Welding, ASE Automotive, Heavy Duty Diesel, & many others.

Analysis | The Energy 202: Green New Deal is already sparking debate over nuclear energyThe Energy 202: Green New Deal is already sparking debate over nuclear energy Here's the NGD visualized We should have a very mature, clean nuclear capability already but liberals in the 70s, especially Hollywood & Washington Post, ran it off as part of the nuke scare. It's ironic because if every person in favor of this Green New Deal just stopped driving, stopped using electricity and gas in their homes we would make considerable progress in reducing our green house emissions. But that's never gonna happen is it? Let someone else suffer.
