Yellen: Pushing Green Energy to Lower Energy Costs ‘Over Time’ Is Key Part of Fighting Inflation
Breitbart ^ | 03/28/2024 | IAN HANCHETT

Posted on 03/28/2024 6:21:26 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports,” Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen stated that a key plank of President Joe Biden’s agenda to lower costs is by “creating incentives to dramatically improve the use of clean energy in the United States” and “over time, this will help lower household energy costs.”

Host Andrea Mitchell asked, “[H]ow can you — I know you’re in Georgia today — help get the message to people that the economy is better and improve it even more, get those grocery prices down, help bring down the prices that people are feeling at their kitchen table?”

“ was a faculty member at the London School of Economics from 1978 to 1980.”

Among other ridiculously high and far reaching financial educational achievements this woman has

So she knows this is not true

Unless she’s all academic and has zero clue how the world really operates.

She blames Putin for the spike in energy prices. Of course, those of us not glued to the Dim 24/7 lying media remember $5/gallon gasoline BEFORE Putin attacked Ukraine.

As far as so-called "green" energy making energy cheaper in the long run .... not for everybody and certainly not when the government is involved. The only chance for things like solar to be advantageous is if it's done at the individual level by the homeowner or business owner doing his own homework for his particular situation. Even for people in that kind of good situation for solar, very few people are going to do the kind of detailed analysis to make it beneficial.

Making the grid depend on solar is about as dumb as a diabetic signing on to the Stacey Abrams diet plan.

Might not be academic either. She may have gotten the same pass that AOC did at BU.

Creating a product monopoly has never lowered the price. It creates a situation of extortion and they can charge what they want.

Idiot.

All “green energy” costs more than hydrocarbons.

“Green Energy” will therefore CAUSE inflation.

Idiot.

I like how Ben Shapiro will sometimes play a clip from her and say it’s “the “latest news from Hobbiton.”

It is difficult to get prices lower than a commodity you are able to pull out of the ground at relatively low extraction costs.

How do you lower energy cost by using green energy that cost twice as much?

I forgot...this is liberal thought process which is devoid of all rational thought.

Let’s see who is an LSE alum. Janet Napolitano, George Soros, and Mick Jagger. Jagger only went a couple of years but was doing good when he dropped out to play with the Stones. I don’t know if he learned much there as it took the Stones until about 1980 to get control of their music careers. Almost every RS song until then is owned by others.

Watching this wench speak is like watching a stump - with a hole drilled for a mouth - bleating out random globalist/swamp zeitgeist.
