As Europe Deindustrializes: Is it Undergoing Economic Suicide

The heavy costs of suppressing the use of fossil fuels while promoting intermittent, weather-dependent renewable energy technologies over the past decade has been disguised and diffused by hidden costs and fiscal transfers to powerful constituencies. But over time, ‘net zero’ climate policies have become increasingly unbearable for ordinary people as they reach beyond the power sector to cover agriculture, transport, homes, and buildings”​​.

Germany’s industrial production peaked in November of 2017, and by the end of last year had fallen to a level last seen in 2006 outside of the global financial recession and Covid-19 years. Its industrial sector contracted by almost 14% in the 6 years ending December 2023. …

Energy-intensive trade-oriented industries, involving both among small and medium-sized firms as well as behemoths like BASF, have been worst hit, as high energy prices make vast swathes of Germany’s manufacturing sector uncompetitive. The self-inflicted economic meltdown in the pursuit of ‘net zero’ policy goals goes beyond Germany. Industrial capacity is being decimated across Europe”​​.

Excellent find. Germany is self destructions.Electric car mandates with batteries that don't go very far and are near impossible to find charging stations are just one huge problem. Massive immigration thru near open borders of illegal muzzies who want to take over Europe and already see Eurpoe as muzzie owned countries haunt germany now.

The UK 4 day work week and so much more and you have the implosion of a once good country. Never great but just good. Now it's a disaster prime for muzzie/deep state takeover. Five million muzzies in Germany and counting:

They are using the Global Warming fraud to make America commit economic suicide. Starbuck moms are easy to fool, just tell them they are good girls, and they will shoot themselves in the head.

Mario Parker of Bloomberg now telling the truth about how worried the biden regime is about the upcoming election if it even happens. Let's hope we don't have a civil war or WWIII.

Juannnnnn now running down young black men,probably since his son is young and conservative,what a putz.

Juan says biden is delivering the message of his accomplishments like open borders, high inflation,high interest rates, destruction of our fuel supply,doubling of gas prices and all the other accomplishments of obama III.

Francesca Chambers of the white house says nyt is not a friend of obiden,she's so full of it its laughable. shannons panel almost unwatchable its so pathetic.

........

Maria promoting her show now it will be awesome as usual.rfk and others coming up.
