Looking Beyond the Hysteria

Liberal/Socialists' latest priority agenda item - thanks to an obviously naive' AOC, who is soon to turn 30* - is the proposal to save the planet through the "New Green Deal". A lot of attention in the media and the national dialog has come out over the past couple weeks about how absurd it all is. *(I remember the statement in the '60s: "Never trust anyone over 30!")

The major focus of its absurdity is that AOC has claimed that the world will end in just 12 years because we are refusing to take the left's assertion that greenhouse gases, or carbon dioxide, is changing our climate such that living on earth will not be possible; we all die. In only a decade, they propose that in order to turn this "threat" around effectively, we must do the following in order to stop CO2 going into the atmosphere; 

• completely eliminate air travel
• put a fart diaper on every single cow, or make them extinct
• retrofit every single building in our country to clean energy
• pay those unwilling to work, a government salary (If this idea isn't socialism, then what is?)
• and, build a network of high speed trains to get between cities

And these are just the five major starter items! I loved it when Rush Limbaugh told Chris Wallace in his appearance on FOX News that he wanted to be the first one get a ticket on the train to Hawaii. More recently, AOC's come under intense heat and backlash about her proposal, yet, she's responded just like a typically ignorant and self-righteous 12 year old, saying that at least she's proposing suggestions to solve the threat, so, she's he "boss". Her response is typical of the indoctrination younger generations are getting today. Never mind that they're completely ridiculous and would totally tank the nation's economy. (Be sure to read the article linked above and listen to the brief audio podcast by Tony Kantz located at the bottom of it.)

It's obvious to anyone who has a grip on reality that these goals are not only absurd, they are unachievable within the time span proposed. Then too, what many are not mentioning when discussing this is that it ONLY involves the United States. 

What about the far greater contributors of greenhouse gasses to the atmosphere, like China? To ignore this reality is analogous to putting an umbrella over one's head while claiming that the waterfall underneath which they're standing will effectively stop the threat of ending life on earth.

Also, there is a clue as to what our lifestyle would revert to in its name. THE Green NEW DEAL reveals what this nation went through already and it's ironic that AOC has called the threat her proposal attempts to address as her generation's World War II. Herein is the connection to which I am getting at.

During World War II when our nation not only fended off the threat of Germany's Nazi regime in Europe, but also the Japanese Empire's expansion in the Pacific theater, this nation was already under President Roosevelt's "New Deal" which, for the previous decade, was attempting miserably through the New Deal to get the nation back on its feet economically. 

Under this federal program, every aspect of life during this period of the 1930s involved rationing and government's attempt to control business. Once the country was attacked at Pearl Harbor at the end of 1941 and Congress properly declared war on both Japan and Germany, citizens willingly participated in the rationing programs with the desire to win these simultaneous wars. And, although it was at great cost, we did it in only four years! 

However, there is a question which no one that I've heard yet, is asking about this proposal. Fantasizing that it somehow gained traction and Congress actually passed new laws to take on such an endeavor, and, if it was actually possible to accomplish all of what it proposes, and, if it actually achieved the proposed goal before the "deadline", what guarantee would the citizenry have that the government would end the rationing and controls imposed as no longer necessary?

Of course the leftists wouldn't ever do, or say, such a thing! This proposal is their desperate attempt to not only scare the pubic into compliance, but is their master plan to impose total control over them as every totalitarian regime has done in the past and will do in the future, if we allow them to. Just consider what's going on in Venezuela right now by checking out this clip from CNN.

It is my hope, and I suspect any rational thinking citizen out there does as well, that this will fade into oblivion, as many of their earlier absurd and ridiculous ideas have in the past. However, if this is not the case, then we'd better organize and mobilize our ranks to fight it until it's dead, as did our previous generation did so effectively in World War II. It will be our World War III of a completely different kind than we've ever known before. This intro of Tucker Carlson's show today makes it all too clear how different it already has become.
