Coal is the recycling of tax payer dollars into the Capitalists. Green industry is the recycling of tax payer dollars into the Democrat party hacks.
Right on target, FRiend. Bob
Bing! Bing! Bing! We have a winner!
A few observations I would add to your excellent observation.
We must always keep in mind that when it comes to enviro-nuts, what they really care about isn’t what they are fighting for. The same can be said of virtually all Liberals/progressives/Democrats. In addition to their complete lack of logic and ability to read and comprehend.
Electric cars are powered by coal. But they want electric cars.
Fracking for Nat-Gas has been going on for over 50 years with tens of thousands of wells drilled in America with no environmental impact to speak of. But, when new technology allowed for horizontal drilling to extract huge amounts of gas with a very small footprint, they went to work to scare people with lies about it’s safety. BTW, the enviro-nuts used to love Nat-Gas as a “clean energy” solution.
Hydro-Electric dams. Safe renewable very clean and it works. The biggest most vocal group against building dams around the world are the enviro-nuts.
Wind, they love wind power but apparently hate birds. They also fail to consider where all the copper will come from to make those massive turbines. Nevermind that wind power is wholly unreliable.
Solar, that’s the ticket. While advances have been made in solar the reliability is still very much in doubt, not to mention the “carbon footprint” to manufacture.
Two last points.
EVERYTHING we have comes out of the ground. Laptops, cellphones, iron, copper, pharmaceuticals you name it, it comes out of the ground. Even the food we eat, and that needs C02.
What they want is for the population to contract in a very very big way. They don’t want the next Einstein or Madam Curie to be born. They treasure “nature” as if people are not part of nature.
So, their are two groups of people, the ones you described that actually understand this and are just in this fight for the money and control, and the useful idiots they string along to influence public opinion with their media and “grassroots” protests.
