Cortez’s ‘Green New Deal’ leading to the Self-Destruction of the Democrat Party
Canada Free Press ^ | 02/27/19 | Rick Hayes

Cortez's GND has obviously jumped the shark and has not only fractured the Democrat party but exposed severe weaknesses in today's society

Politicians endorsing Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s “Green New Deal” do so, not because they believe it will work, but because the penalty for not endorsing it would put them outside the radical transition team promoting socialism. Aside from the absurdity of the plan that assumes, without any factual basis, that the earth is getting warmer because of greenhouse gases produced by man, it talks about facing armageddon in as little as 12 years if The United States doesn’t turn into little house on the prairie. Democrats like Bernie Sanders, Kamala Harris, Cory Booker, and Kirsten Gillibrand have endorsed Cortez’s plan and are betting their political futures that Americans will find the plan’s benefits worth the hardships surrounding the changes needed to be made. Changes that require a complete overhaul of America’s infrastructure and energy source and cost trillions of dollars more than the entire US economy can afford.

The Riddle: What climate does climate change change?

The Answer: The political climate of course.

...Why do leftist politicians and environmental lobbyists continue to support their climate change narrative? Because man-made climate change is not scientific – it is a political scheme designed to transfer the wealth of industrialized nations, particularly the United States, to non-industrialized nations. It is globalized socialism where assets of productive countries are confiscated and awarded to non-productive nations using the ruse of “saving the planet.”

Climate fearmongering advances the international political agenda to internationalize the world into a new world order. Climate alarmism is political science masquerading as environmental science. It is part of the despicable effort to de-industrialize the United States of America and collapse her economy.

The Green New Deal is a continuation of the redistribution of American wealth through the United Nations globalization efforts. The UN’s global man-made climate change campaign unfairly targets the United States and ignores Russia, China, and India’s non-compliance. Why? Because the goal of the deceitful campaign is to collapse America’s economy.

Politics is war. The next big battle in the war between Americanism and Socialism will be fought in 2020 at the ballot box. War makes strange bedfellows and the radical leftist Democrats have allied themselves with the RINOs and Islamists to bring down America. Here is the problem.

The RINOs are closet globalists who represent the most dangerous element in this unholy anti-American alliance because globalists consider socialism and Islamism to be temporary means to an end. The long term objective of globalism is the New World Order of one world government ruled by the globalist elite of course.

Socialism promises prosperity and delivers poverty. Islamism promises peace and delivers supremacist religious tyranny. Globalism promises both peace and prosperity but delivers a return to feudalism where a small ruling class has absolute power over a world population of serfs that it rules.

If you converted all the money in the world into US dollars, and confiscated every last cent, you would have about 5% of the cash you would need to implement the Democratic Party’s Green New Deal.

I don’t know about this push into socialism ...

...with the dumbed down education standards now in its maturity coupled with social parasites taxpaying voters are outnumbered.

Our Republic is circling the bowl into 3rd worldism.

Took the words out of my head.

“Our Republic is circling the bowl into 3rd worldism.”

Completely agree. I think this self unmasking of the Democrat party, to show themselves as the socialists that they are, is not unplanned. The under 40 crowd has been indoctrinated enough that socialism is regarded as a good thing.

Critical thinking is so lacking in that same under 40 crowd that they are unable to link the conditions in Venezuela to what the Democrats are pushing.

The Democrats won’t even be slightly hurt by the “Green New Deal.” Policy has almost nothing to do with their support, as long as the policy is based on taking from the disfavored group and giving to the favored groups.

Brainwashed college students and hate-filled leftists

It would be one thing for Democrats to alter America’s lifestyle forever to avert a real and present danger to the planet and quite another to destroy the thriving U.S. economy to advance a political and personal agenda. But with a plan like Cortez’s GND, there is much more at stake for the survivability of the Democrat party.

In their race to full-blown socialism, the fringe elements within the Democrat party have managed to drag their weak leadership down with them. As of late, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has a look about her as if she has somehow misplaced the U.S. Capitol Building.

But deep down Democrats must know that they have brought this plague upon themselves and in an ironic twist, their foolish belief in open borders for the country has translated into an open border for their party. A party that has lost its identity and seems to have no boundaries concerning decency and what it means to be a Democrat. Their recent insane policies such as, disregarding due process and automatically believing the woman, supporting a baseless charade of an investigation against a legally elected President and abortion on demand are coming home to roost.

Cortez’s GND is just another step toward the self-destruction of the Democrat party. With each new ridiculous leftist policy, voters have become desensitized to the absurd, and the needle moves another notch toward the left. Republicans, on the other hand, would do well to observe what happens to a party without borders. That not standing one’s ground on conservative issues, not keeping campaign promises or following mandates that brought you to office is equivalent and just as harmful as not having any substance or boundaries.

Cortez’s GND has obviously jumped the shark and has not only fractured the Democrat party but exposed severe weaknesses in today’s society. Apart from showcasing the ludicrous desire of brainwashed college students and hate-filled leftists who want to transform the greatest government system into one that has a track record of total failure, a nation that does not honor its borders, does not protect the lives of the innocent and does not follow the rule of law is a nation in decay and heading straight toward destruction from within.

We can only hope. But the twenty-somethings who have been green indoctrinated and miseducated are going to be a problem if they decide to put away their bongs and vote.

Please tell me what the plan's benefits are. I have yet to figure that out.

I can see how the plan would benefit a select group of people, however.

There are many reasons why the Green New Deal is not a good political issue for the Democrats, but maybe the most important one is that it doesn’t pander to any of the Democrats’ special interest groups.

Blacks would get nothing. Labor would be left out in the cold, including teachers unions. For women, nothing. For Hispanics, nada.

In addition, by focusing on the crazy multi-trillion-dollar GND, the Democrats will divert attention from their other crazy multi-trillion-dollar issues like free tuition for everybody which would seem to benefit actual people.
