Granholm: Biden Admin. Wants to Put Some Benefits of Green Energy Investments into Places ‘Hurt’ by Move Away from Fossil Fuels
breitbart.com ^ | 2/26/2021 | Ian Hatchett

On Thursday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “All In,” Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm stated that the Biden administration wants to place 40% of the benefits in clean energy into communities that have “been hurt by the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy” and have suffered from pollution.

Granholm said, “[T]he Biden administration wants to put 40% of the benefits of the investments in this clean energy economy, which you’re going to see in the jobs package next go-around, into communities that have suffered from environmental pollution and also been hurt by the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy — away from fossil fuels, benefit from the investments in hopefully clean energy. So, that commitment by this administration to invest in these communities is also going to be a big part of our portfolio that I’m very excited about.”

FFS! Guess we shouldn't be surprised at the sheer number of unqualified/underqualified UPOS people being placed in positions of power/authority simply because they can get a box checked. Coding classes start in a few weeks for those in need. SMDH!

There are no benefits to green energy. Only costs.

May God protect us from these evil and incompetent ones.
Amen.

I am a Michigan FReeper who lived through (barely) the Granholm years of socialist leaning, feminist sexist totally unqualified “leadership.” Michigan was just above official Third World status.

She can’t be President because she was born in British Columbia-——unless Dems and packed SCOTUS say otherwise.

Got to get those Solyndra type KICKBACK money greasers of OUR TAX DOLLARS getting back to the demonrat machine-— that is what they mean.

“Wealth” transfer is defined as we take your tax dollars and blow it on stupid dysfunctional and proven failed (from physics alone) energy black holes— so we can rake off the money.

PRIME CASE Example: the scam skim artist former VA Gov.Terry MCaulliffe (BAG MAN for the Clintons— is what he really is, and a bottle a day whiskey drunk) thinks he can run again for governor, and said he would run for Prez in 2020, but no— the dems went with the obamaumao puppet from that gang wing of the DNC criminal operation.

His ripoff- criminal one: GreenTech Automotive. Tunica,MS.
Took all kinds of obmaumao green money (solyndra like) and produced NOTHING no sales, very few really terrible electric cars and went bankrupt having pissed around all the “Green” Federal subsidy money to various democrat coffers.

Went bankrupt in 2018..amazing kept it in eternal Chapter 11 and kept getting money milked out to himself.

You will note there is NOT A WORD in Wikipedia on the actual founder of this company— no, they say it was Andrew Wang (wang computer— loser. who has little good to say about mcaulliffe).

Granholm stated that the Biden administration wants to place 40% of the benefits in clean energy into communities that have “been hurt by the transition from fossil fuels to clean energy . . ."

I am guessing that this should include the whole United States.

It is the way the bloody cursed Left does economics

Take people who are self-sufficient, happy, and prosperous, destroy their livelihoods for a contrived reason, and then give them tax money collected from other Americans, or worse...borrowed from other countries because we are broke.

They, and all their allies, are enemies of this Republic.

Yes.

And they are back to reviving that horrid lying cliche “investment” to mean taxes gouged out of your income by bureaucrats.

True investments are capitalistic in nature. Someone risks capital and gives value in expectation of value to return to them. Not taxes down the rat hole.

The idiots that suck on green energy can simply freeze to death.

Stupid, Stupid, Stupid Leftist Lies built entirely on the Big Green Lie.

The useful idiots who buy this are forging their own chains of serfdom. When they are no longer needed, they will be the first (or 2nd being after Leftist activist academics being the first) to be exterminated.

Biden did not help Texas and he is not going to help the rest of the US. Just insiders will get the money.
