Rick Perry wants to talk with AOC about GND

[GoTfan]

The Green New Deal is a total joke that shouldnt be even considered by Congress. It defies basic economics, math and reality in general.

A bizarre accusation from a proponent of Reaganomics.

Milton Friedman is one of the most brilliant economists ever (Reaganomics real name is Friedmanian Economics)

Um, no?

Well the success of the 1980s and 1990s proves Friedman right .

You can thank Jimmy Carter for the early 80's. Trickle down economics is a Trump Unversity type con job.

LMAO  keep listening to TYT and by the way you know when the economy started to improve: 1983 not 1981. 1983 was the year Reagan's economic policies started to go fully into effect (1982 was the transition year) and the economy roared after that and aside for a couple years in the early 90s the economy had the best 18 year stretch in American History(1983-2001).

Also do you know why Carter's policies failed, it was because there was no way Keynesian Economics
would work against that type of recession because it was caused by a supply shock. Supply Side Economics was the cure for it because it directly addressed the economic problems facing us then.

If we used your measurements, FDR was the worst President of all time.

Both the New Deal and Reaganomics didnt work but the voters are idiots who dont care about policy and indirectly give politicians free reign to do what they want once a realignment calcifies and puts certain politicical priorities into place.

The New Deal didn't work?

I have no idea what Perry might say to AOC.

When it comes to the Green New Deal, there are two important concepts in conflict.  One concept is the idea that Global Warming is caused in part by human behavior, and there are things humans can do to reduce, and even reverse, the effects.  The other concept is the idea that, at the present time, we have ALTERNATIVES to fossil fuels, but no SUBSTITUTE for fossil fuels, and a SUBSTITUTE is not in the offing anytime soon.  

How do we balance the danger of burning stuff to have energy with the idea that only by burning stuff at the levels we currently do will we maintain our current living standards?  If you can figure this out, you'll be a rich, rich person.

The clean, renewable substitute to fossil fuels has existed for generations but AOC and her allies oppose it on ideological grounds.

Remind me, what happened in Fukishima again?

Basically nothing, in the grand scheme of things, compared to the impact of climate change. Or was that your point?

Oh no. Just three meltdowns, a few hydrogen-air explosions and the spread of radioactive material and a 30-40 year clean-up.
