What do governments gain by destroying economies?

Here is another plausible answer.
The governments gain nothing. They are only a means to an ends.

Environmentalism is a new age pagan religion. Followers want to protect their Goddess Gaia and Cathedral. They can only do that through controlled genocide, convincing individuals to commit suicide, and/or promoting infanticide (a form of eugenics). In their eyes, humans are considered a parasite to Mother Earth.

Environmentalists are living proof that if you don’t believe in something, you can fall for anything.

Keep Smiling :)

I’m an Australia and NO SALE!

Unfortunately, the only thing that will get us out of this mess is a new election. The Greens get the balance of power in the Senate in July and they’re even worse than the government - if that possible.

I doubt even Dale Carnegie himself could make that sale.

However, global warming reduces snow accidents and dangerous falls on icy sidewalks.

Perhaps he will have to seek refuge among the manatee, once the public at large finds out what a scam artist he really is.

Their so much in the same boat we are in. Growing numbers of citizens waking up to the scam but often feeling their governments will still put the screws to them with carbon tax schemes.
