“Huge waste of money” IS the objective of the program. The construction of unreliable and relatively limited-use windmills and solar panels is merely another facet of this huge waste of money scheme. None of this actually improves productivity or equitable distribution of the goods and services resulting from productivity, but it does kind of choke off capitalistic growth, by denying funds and financing to innovation and enterprise. Add to the intentional waste generated, regulations that are restrictive and add still more cost to the fewer consumer products that are created, and the proportions of the massive deceit and swindle become gargantuan, the massive gorilla in the room.
Just putting most of the world on a wartime footing. And for what? To appease the appetite of the oligarchs for still more power? To engage in what is essentially a blood sport as the great masses scrabble for some small crumb?
Some people just cannot stand prosperity, an if there is not enough adversity in their lives, they have to invent it.
Cloward-Piven scheme: overwhelm the system to collapse it, then replace with something that you control. It’s the Marxist way!
