Stupidity just set a new low.

Flintstones.
Just when you thought mankind could not get any dumber.

We won't need airplanes in this country any more. They will be replaced by high speed rail.
https://hotair.com/archives/2019/02/...gh-speed-rail/
It's not clear if that happens before or after upgrading all existing buildings in the country for energy efficiency. But then we will all live happily ever after, including "economic security for all who are unable or unwilling to work".
This bunch is so goofy that even Pelosi isn't buying into it. Little Miss AOC is pushing this in Congress, but Pelosi didn't even put her on the new special climate change committee.

Any plan that hopes to get the country off of fossil fuels without leaning heavily on nuclear power is a complete impossibility.

Here a is link to the full 14 page Green New Deal provide by AOC and company.
https://apps.npr.org/documents/docum...New-Deal-FINAL
I can only assume a group process was used to put actual ink to paper in a submittable form, and then affirmed by a number of people.
Blanket support was given by nearly every 2020 Dem candidate for this proposal.
Somebody needs to convert this entire thing to crayon font.

And by every citizen who is unable or unwilling to work.

they won't need airplanes in a few years once they improve the passenger railgun missile technology. It will fire on electromagnetic sources and will not need petroleum products.

Asked about paying for all of this, AOC says,
Quote:
“At the end of the day, this is an investment in our economy that should grow our wealth as a nation, so the question isn’t how we will pay for it, but what will we do with our new shared prosperity.”
|
That certainly sounds like something Pelosi would say. I don't know why they aren't best buds by now.

While AOC is heading up this brilliant plan in the House, Ed Markey (D-Mass) is taking the lead in the Senate. Looks like they have it all worked out, except for a messy little detail here and there.
Quote:
Markey and Ocasio-Cortez wrote that they 'are calling for a full transition off fossil fuels and zero greenhouse gases.'
They acknowledge the difficulty with achieving a 'zero emissions' society in just 10 years, 'because we aren’t sure that we’ll be able to fully get rid of farting cows and airplanes that fast.'
|
I don't know about AOC's experience, but Markey has been in the House and then the Senate long enough to be an expert on that first problem.

The Green New Deal is an insane poorly thought out plan that will bankrupt America, which is what the Socialists want to do anyways.

If this thing had a prayer of passing, Pelosi and Schumer would have been all over it.
Trump needs to jump on this and claim that his wall can be designed to also stop Mexican cow farts from drifting across the border.
