Natural gas burns CLEAN. These leftscum aren’t concerned about pollution. They want us to live in caves.
As noted by others here, the prosperity of civilization is directly related to how much energy is at the disposal of the median citizen. That’s what they are attacking: prosperity and civilization itself!
heard on the radio that the Environmental Activists say we (US) have already consumed our ‘fair share’ of natural resources. We are now ‘stealing’ from the rest of the world.
Ridiculous.
They want us to live in high density urban locales where we are more easily controlled. Raising energy prices is a good way to drive a lot of people in that direction.
They don’t necessarily want us to live in caves, but they do want to herd us into the cities. Look at the electoral map of America by voting pattern down to the precinct level, which I am sure the democrats have. The cities are packed with governmentally dependent reliable democrats. The independent affluent suburbs are the only places you find conservatives who favor limited government in any meaningful numbers. To guarantee a perpetual lock on political power, you have to herd the independent suburban dwellers into the cities where they will be converted into democrats. To do this, you destroy the two things essential for suburban existence; abundant well-paying jobs and cheap energy. Every policy of this regime serves one or both goals of eliminating well-paying jobs or ending cheap energy.
It’s exactly what he meant by “fundamentally transforming America.”
