Nope some are more equal than others. Green New Deal leaders get to fly airplanes around the world, because they are saving the planet, but you will have to pay through the nose to deliver goods in your truck, because you are a polluting NPC.https://twitter.com/tpavlik/status/1093650410437406720 …

That's like saying the president is a fraud because he gets a free house from the government but you have to buy/rent one. Nonetheless we will have electric planes soon. I'm glad to hear you kinda agree we have a pollution issue, that's an improvement for republicans

Oh great another strategy game trope, sci-fi technology. Our economy doesn't need tech that actually works, we only need to simulate it and people can "fly" wherever they like.

Quite easy to be negative, there is always a million reasons why not to do something. However, we know we have a problem which you seem to acknowledge, can you or anyone in your political party give us a solution that is based on science, not 'pray for it' ? eyes on the prize.

Some problems are unsolvable, so lack of a solution is hardly a good argument for an extremely destructive non-solution such as the Green New Deal. Any sane solution would have to start with the countries that will dominate future greenhouse gas emissions, India and China.

But we're not going after those countries and focusing on this issue bcuz our leadership lacks 7th grade understand of science and confuses climate vs. weather. Given the toolset we have, the Green New Deal is the best solution we currently have, standing idle isn't gonna cut it

Destroying careers people have been learning for & working at for decades, forcing them to damage the health of their children, greatly increasing the costs of doing myriads of basic things such as driving the kids and delivering goods, certainly won't cut it. Ask Macron.

When the alternative is 1000x worse than any temporary side effect you describe, I suspect we don't have a common goal here which is leaving this planet in a better shape for our children. "Evil prevails when good men do nothing". Was good chatting, I love your Bitcoin material
