[ April 24, 2024 ]
I was telling my French readers about AOC’s crazy Green New Deal on a French-speaking political media.
Even in Socialist France, where people suffer daily from “social justice”; where the government confiscates every month 50% of their pay check; where they pay 18% VAT and their tax return with what they have left; where 10% of the people, 25% of the youth is unemployed – and when they are lucky to find a job, it’s never in the field they studied for; where health care costs three times more than in the US – but they emphasize that it’s free because it’s painlessly taken out of their paycheck – and refund only 70% of the cost, with poor service and cases where costly treatments are refused; even there, they consider AOC as a total lunatic, and a useful idiot to make believe that Socialism is eccentric when it actually is lethal.
I was telling the French about Alexandria’s plan. We call this kind of environmentalist “watermelon,” because they are green outside, but red inside. They had a good laugh about her, until they read about the new French government plan to reduce temperature by 2.7° (Fahrenheit).
The plan is laid out on the government bank Caisse des Depots et Consignations website for the State-owned NGO Novethic.

The similarities between the Green News Deal and this French Red New Deal is no coincidence. They show that not only the climate change nuts communicate and share globally their future plans, but facing a general backlash from a public that is more and more doubtful (Right now, people in the Midwest are dreaming of global warming), they will push toward a more and more coercive and totalitarian world.

Cortez, tlaib, and all of their muzzie globalist, islamofacist, neo, commie, one world government supporters, colleagues, fellow Democrats, pushing the muzzie caliphate green dream bullshit can blow it out their ass. Recall, vote out, prosecute, defund, criminalize every supporter of all this muzzie commie islamofacist one world government democrat now. Boot them out and put them in jail or execute them for treason like the Rosenberg’s. Good riddance. Ban all Muslims. Criminalize ca-ir, msa, is-na, muslim brotherhood, hamas, Hezbollah, isis, Alameda, hologram, all other muzzie murder groups then try, convict and punish all muzzie for conspiracy to commit global genocide of all infidels worldwide. This will solve world energy crisis and end global warming. Build the wall, maga.

If all this arch lefty bull crap wasn’t bad enough, I noticed a few years back a study into the ramifications of the removal of diesel fuel from all food production, transport and distribution, guess what, the figures showed that to replace that fuel, over 7 billion extra people would be required on top of the population to perform essential tasks in agriculture and horticulture..

Totally wrong! The most crazed leftists believe that the world should have no more than a 500 million population. Without diesel fuel, mass starvation is the best way to quickly reduce to this total world population. See, it’s all so SIMPLE!! Just think of how much the survivors will be able to enjoy nature!

I don’t. We are drilling for our own oil and electric are inefficient and not viable.
We don’t get any imported oil from Iran. The U.S. is the largest market for goods and services in the world.

You can buy several brands of them now. They work. They aren’t very warm in the winter because there’s no source of abundant waste heat to blow into the cabin, but they do work.
We don’t need to go off gasoline to shut down Iran. Plenty of other places to buy petroleum in the world market.

Good idea! Where does the ELECTRICITY come from? If half of U.S. households bought one electric car and used it for half of their driving, electricity consumption would double. Just where would it come from? If you combined ALL the electric power from solar and wind projects in the U.S. , it could be replaced by a couple of large conventional power plants. Not only that, but 10% of ALL currently generated electricity is used up just transporting it across the country.

Social justice/marxism only pursue a path of control by eliminating, controlling and banning many basic freedoms. That is what they do. They love control over others. Freedom is not in there vocabulary. The sad part is that top down control not only stifles freedom, but also stifles innovation and solutions to modern day problems. That is why socialism/communism has been an abject failure and solved zero problems except for gaining super status among their ruling elite.

The COMING OIL DOOM
We won’t have to worry about many of these restrictions being forced upon the public because they
will happen naturally. OIL and NATURAL GAS will be DEPLETED in 50 YEARS! The current world oil reserves are approximately 1.7 TRILLION barrels – enough for 50-55 years at current consumption rates. Natural Gas reserves are also estimated to be around 53 years. Coal reserves are expected to last 150 years. These numbers could be slightly inaccurate but probably not by much. In any event, the idea is simple – FOSSIL FUELS will be gone in a relatively short amount of time.
Even though you may think Alexandra Ocasio Cortez’s ideas are crazy, her intentions are correct. We better come up for replacement systems for every piece of machinery that currently requires OIL and GAS. We better start now because it will take decades to convert these gas dependent processes to new forms of energy(solar, wind, hydrogen fuel cells, tidal energy systems, extended battery systems, etc.). I also believe that within the next 10-20 years, the price of gas will “go through the roof”. It will start to become so expensive, that the average person and small business will not be able to afford it.
I don’t feel I am being an alarmist in saying that there will be “GREAT CHANGES” to our world which is critically dependent upon OIL. The changes will come fast and I don’t believe there has been enough consideration to the consequences of the world without these fuels. I’m surprised there is not more discussion about this.

The information has been suppressed. Mike Ruppert tried to get the word out and “committed” suicide in 2015 and Matt Simmons had a “heart attack”.
All oil users if properly informed would be able to adapt to a more precautionary style of oil use if the information was scientifically presented in a way most could understand. A promotion of cost savings using telecommuting would be a good start and would greatly free up the work force dependent on the type of business.
The KSA’s reserves are largely exhausted, why else would the elites let women drive cars and allow Western entertainment in the country now? The elites want to present the best possible face to the West so they have Western bolt holes to run to when the time comes. Restive citizens will take over when the benefits stop being paid.

New reserves just discovered off Israel. We have more reserves in Alaska. And if we’d take off the shackles, really good nuclear could be implemented.
Eventually we may replace our petroleum powered appliances with electric, but the transition will take long enough that we can just keep using what we have until it wears out, then replace it with new tech.

Greetings!
I don’t believe new oil discoveries or the oil in Alaska(ANWR-Arctic National Wildlife Refuge) would be enough to cover the worlds’ demands beyond the 55 year depletion estimate by any significant amount. Even though I would hate to see new nuclear or coal energy plants constructed around the world, I realize that they maybe be needed to keep a large part of the world population from starving and freezing to death while the energy institutions try to transition to new forms of energy. In any event, the estimates say that all forms of material based energies(Oil, Natural Gas, Coal and even Uranium) will be depleted within 200 years. At that point the only “game in town” will be the renewables and perhaps hyrdogen(heavy water from the oceans) – plus a few others in development(Bio fuels and Bio mass).

Thorium is plentiful. We’re doing research on reactors that can run from thorium or other molten salts (fluoride). Can’t melt down. After that can be fusion. I wouldn’t mind biomass if it could be produced cheaply. But we’re not a bunch of idiots who need windmills or non-recyclable solar panels in this century. We’re the people who invented the airplane and the atomic bomb. We can harness basic forces of nature and have abundant, flexible and clean power.

Molten salt reactors. Nuclear fuel reprocessing. Even fusion. If we don’t prevent ourselves, we can provide abundant nuclear energy with low waste. At some point, probably when my current vehicles wear out and battery tech improves, I’ll replace them with electric.
But much of AOC’s plan is outright stupid and anti-environmental. Tear down and replace all the buildings????? That’s about the most anti-green thing one can do. Massive amounts of waste are created in building a house (or apartment building, which she probably plans to shove us into). Massive amounts of fuel are used to build it, more to dispose of the old building, etc. Dumping working appliances and replacing with new. Our whole country would be full of garbage dumps from disposal of all the old houses and buildings. Tons of toxic runoff from all this.
AOC’s plan is so incredibly stupid it is totally without merit. But it’s probably the signal for what is to be shoved down our throats.

Why, we must ask, is there a need for this? 72% of he power consumed in France is clean,and very safe nuclear power. The French are energy conscious. All they really need to do is to convert their auto and truck transportation to electric power and there will be no need for any of these ridiculous proposals. The answer is they are using this issue to gain total control over the population. They are scared the “yellow jackets” might actually find a leader that will replace the current elite.

Islam is like a scouring pad. It has little will of its own, it just does what it’s programmed to do, but it scours. If you have Islam in your country and any weakness in your society, Islam will clean you up and kill off your society. It can be directed as a disinfectant, but then how do you keep it from eating you up too? You have to outsmart it, but be careful because if it infiltrates, it’ll paralyze your defense too.
