Lawsuits against fossil fuel companies?
How long would that money last??
Lawsuits against fossil fuels companies are plainly intended to be debilitating, considering the intention to fund vast new gov’t programs.
I expect they intend to break the businesses, bring them to a “too big to fail” state, and nationalize the oil industry outright.
And we know how well a nationalized oil industry will serve the biggest economy in the world. To wit: it won’t.
And given the grounds for a successful lawsuit at that scale, there’s no way federalized leadership would do any better than what was replaced.
The real question isn’t “how long would that money last?”, it’s “how long would the national infrastructure function?” with an answer in the vicinity of “months”.
Never go full Venezuela.
