Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s Green New Deal Is ‘Pretty Much All Fantasy-land’
Experts decry ‘pie in the sky’ environmental plan
Since sweeping into Congress atop a wave of far-left support, Rep.-elect Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.) has been very clear what her number one goal is: a Green New Deal for America.
“This is going to be the Great Society, the moonshot, the civil rights movement of our generation. That is the scale of the ambition that this movement is going to require,” Ocasio-Cortez said during a Monday town hall with Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.).
Ocasio-Cortez’s proposal for a select committee conspicuously leaves out a lot of the details of how, exactly, these goals would be achieved (a common theme in Congressional proposals to enact radical goals). Instead, it punts them to the committee’s 15 members—nine Democrats and six Republicans—themselves.
Much of the goal of Ocasio-Cortez’s GND proposal does not seem to be about environmental policy at all. While light on solutions for actual implementation, the proposed bill incorporates a number of popular far-left economic ideas as part of “a historic opportunity to virtually eliminate poverty in the United States and to make prosperity, wealth and economic security available to everyone participating in the transformation.”

Gotta love how leftward-tilting ass-pants tinker with words and meanings to fit constantly-fluid objectives. “‘Virtually’ eliminate poverty…”, as in almost, but not quite, depending on one’s definition of eliminate. “Virtually” as in existing in the mind of a stillborn legend, such as Alexa Oxidized-Corntax.
“Virtually” as in…oh never mind.
