We will have blackouts next summer. We almost had them this summer.

Texas spent close to $7 billion on WIND power and when the hottest days hit, they produced squat! The wind don’t blow when its that hot in Texas.

We could have spent half as much on natural gas fired power plants and had reliable power when it’s needed. Instead the eco-freaks ensure that we will have blackouts.

The whole point is to reduce the amount of energy available for a capitalist economy. This is their goal.

Someone needs to call them on this - “OUT LOUD”.

But don't you see that the “green jobs of the future” are vastly superior in every way to the fossil fuel jobs of today?

Sure, 500 Texas families will suffer the loss of their livelihoods, but how can you compare that to the smug self-satisfaction of eco-bureaucrats and liberals who are sure that they're making the world a much better place?
