Only a liberal Democrat would believe government subsidies equals business opportunity.

ONE MAN’S “BUSINESS OPPORTUNITY’ IS ANOTHER MAN’S SCAM!

Sorry to have to yell that but it is true in this case.

We are being scammed by “Climate Change” and the resulting “Green Movement!”

SHEESH!

"Only a liberal Democrat would believe government subsidies equals business opportunity."

I agree.

But also consider that the states have never delegated to the feds, expressly via the Constitution, the specific power to regulate, tax and spend for INTRAstate global warming issues. So such subsidies would be unconstitutional, not that the Constitution has ever stopped the corrupt Washington cartel from doing something.

In fact, given the remote possibility that you are not aware of this, a previous generation of state sovereignty-respecting justices had clarified in broad terms that Congress is prohibited from appropriating taxes in the name of state power issues, essentially any issue that Congress cannot justify under it s constitutional Article I, Section 8-limited powers, the power to address global warming issues in this example not among those powers.

”Congress is not empowered to tax for those purposes which are within the exclusive province of the States.” - Justice John Marshall, Gibbons v. Ogden, 1824.

Remember in November !

So if patriots elect Trump, or whatever conservative they elect, they will also need to elect a new, state sovereignty-respecting Congress that will work within its Section 8-limited powers to support the president.

Note that such a Congress will also probably be willing to fire state sovereignty-ignoring activist justices.
