The Left goes straight up communist. These people are nut jobs. Not only would they subsidize freeloaders they have no clue how much GND would cost or the impact to the society they claim to be saving. Check Page 4 of the Green New Deal FAQ. “The level of investment required is massive. Even if every billionaire and company came together and were willing to pour all the resources at their disposal into this investment, the aggregate value of the investments they could make would not be sufficient.” https://apps.npr.org/documents/document.html?id=5729035-Green-New-Deal-FAQ
Alexandria Ocasio Cortez is just dumb and stupid. This proposal is a bunch of crap written in a feel good way. Don't take her seriously, just ignore the idiots
This looks like something a college freshman wrote.
sounds like it’s a good plan. Jobs, support and investment in communities currently based around fossil fuel work. Too bad it’s a non-binding resolution. People would have to mobilize in order to pressure the Democrats to actually do any of this. Left to their own, the Democrats would probably pass a few unimportant parts while preserving fossil fuel-heavy production. That’s what Obama did... some environmental reforms... but a lot more fuel and pipeline building. Also, the OP misquoted: “Economic security for those unable or unwilling to work”
From Page 4: “The level of investment required is massive. Even if every billionaire and company came together and were willing to pour all the resources at their disposal into this investment, the aggregate value of the investments they could make would not be sufficient.”
The whole manifesto is mental masturbation. It sure feels good!!
OK Bro.
There is no such thing as the “unwilling to work”. Everyone wants to feel appreciated and be a productive member of a community. Subtitle of your post: “Armchair masturbator loses his shit when catching himself fantasizing about AOC”
Haven’t taken a walk around downtown Seattle lately I see
I guess, in order to attract people, low-wage jobs should be made to be slightly better options than living in your car or on the street in freezing rain then.
😂 OP: How did you end up on NPR in the first place?
His name is White Mail. He goes there to trigger himself.
idiocy
AOC click-baited :-D
Don’t forget the fact that the proponents are now claiming that money is basically a social construct that we can just keep printing to pay for it all, lmfao. All aboard the express train (that we replaced all the cars and planes with) to Venezuela style hyperinflation!! What I really want to know is how the fuck Boston college allowed her to be credentialed with an economics degree.
Interesting example considering that Venezuela’s economic crisis was due to a petrol-based economy tanking when the price of fuel dropped... and this proposal is to replace fossil-fuel based production.
Total non-sequitur, the path to not having the money has nothing to do with policy enacted when you don’t have the money. Yeah the drop of gas prices was what caused Venezuela to not have the money, but once they didn’t have it they tried to inflate their way out of it. This proposal is starting without the money, and trying to inflate out immediately.
