I have learned three absolutes about
the climate from former White House space program adviser, consultant
to NASA, and space shuttle engineer John Casey, the author of Dark Winter:
1.
The climate changes.
2.
These changes in the climate follow
naturally recurring cycles.
3.
There is noting mankind can do to change
these naturally recurring cycles.
QUESTION: If mankind cannot control
the weather, a subset of the climate, then why does anyone believe mankind can
control the climate?
The New Green Deal

Having said this, Democrat Socialist
Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez believes that government can control the climate.
Ocasio-Cortez is so sure that she has drafted a Green New Deal resolution to address
the “impending disaster” of climate change.
This Green New Deal resolution includes:
1.
(C) meeting 100 percent of the power demand
in the United States through clean, renewable, and zero-emission energy
sources, including— (i) by dramatically expanding and up grading renewable
power sources; and (ii) by deploying new capacity;
2.
(E) upgrading all existing buildings in
the United States and building new buildings to achieve maximum energy
efficiency, water efficiency, safety, affordability, comfort, and durability,
including through electrification;
3.
(H) overhauling transportation systems
in the United States to remove pollution and greenhouse gas emissions from the
transportation sector as much as is technologically feasible, including through
investment in— (i) zero-emission vehicle infrastructure and manufacturing; (ii)
clean, affordable, and accessible public transit; and (iii) high-speed rail;
4.
(G) ensuring that the Green New Deal
mobilization creates high-quality union jobs that pay prevailing wages, hires
local workers, offers training and advancement opportunities, and guarantees
wage and benefit parity for workers affected by the transition;
5.
(H) guaranteeing a job with a
family-sustaining wage, adequate family and medical leave, paid vacations, and
retirement security to all people of the United States;
6.
(I) strengthening and protecting the
right of all workers to organize, unionize, and collectively bargain free of
coercion, intimidation, and harassment;
7.
(O) providing all people of the United
States with— (i) high-quality health care; (ii) affordable, safe, and adequate
housing; (iii) economic security; and (iv) clean water, clean air, healthy and
affordable food, and access to nature.
The Green New Deal is a massive government
takeover of every aspect of the U.S. economy and individual choice: from wages
and benefits, to healthcare, to unionizing all jobs, to housing, to controls on
all water and food supplies, to transportation, to energy supplies. Each of
these areas, and more, would be 100% under the control of the federal
government should the New Green Deal become law.
The Green New Deal is Socialism on steroids.
A new Utopian society remade in the name of
saving the planet.
Where Communists want to control the means of
production, socialists, like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, want to regulate
the means of production.
Everything would be subject to government
approval, government control, government regulation and government over site.
Life itself would be at the whim of government bureaucrats. If you are deemed
not productive then you become useless to society and harm the planet.
Therefore, you must be eliminated.
All of the key features of the New Green Deal
are already available via the free and open market system. What the New Green
Deal does not allow is individuals to choose life, liberty and their own
pursuit of happiness. Thinking is no longer tolerated, obeying is the new
mantra.
Leon Trotsky wrote:
“In a country where the sole employer is the
State, opposition means death by slow starvation. The old principle: who does
not work shall not eat, has been replaced by a new one: who does not obey shall
not eat.”
Under the New Green Deal all decisions about
all aspects of human life and living would shift from individual choice to
government mandates.
Under the New Green Deal the employer is the
State!
