Thread: Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez's 'Green New Deal' calls for US to 'upgrade or replace'

The Green New Deal: In the next 10 years the country will need to “upgrade or replace every building in the USA for state-of-the-art energy efficiency”. There is only one way this could be accomplished. The Democrats intend to confiscate all the real-estate in the USA and build high rise public housing. The people will be forced into drab shoe box size apartments. Since populations will be packed into high density housing, public transportation will suffice to get people to and from Socialized employment and shopping districts. Therefore the government can confiscate those evil CO2 producing automobiles. Private vehicles provide too much freedom of mobility anyway. This is a Democratic Socialist wet dream.

Green New Deal: Upgrade or Replace Every Building in U.S. Within 10 Yrs

Progressive Democrats will call for every building in the United States to be upgraded or replaced as part of its soon-to-be-unveiled “Green New Deal,” an outline of the proposal reads.

In a press conference Thursday, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and Sen. Ed Markey (D-MA) will detail their ten-year plan to tackle “climate change,” which they claim would require the elimination “pollution and greenhouse gas emissions” to meet “100 percent of the power demand in the United States through clean, renewable, and zero-emission energy sources.”
The plan calls for the “national mobilization” of the economy through 14 “infrastructure and industrial” projects. To meet the country’s power demands through “clean and renewable energy sources,” an FAQ says the country will need to “upgrade or replace every building in US for state-of-the-art energy efficiency.”
The Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis estimates that there are approximately 138 million housing units in the United States, and the Commercial Buildings Energy Consumption Survey (CBECS) estimates that as of 2012, there were 5.6 million commercial buildings. There are 5.256 million minutes in a span of ten years — which would mean at least 27 buildings would need to be “upgraded or replaced” every minute of the decade.
The proposal is already receiving the cold shoulder from leading Democrats, including House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). On Wednesday, the speaker signaled the soon-to-be-created select committee on climate change will not be tasked with writing legislation around the “New Green Deal” — a big blow to plan’s proponents. “’Green New Deal’ is not in the cards. It will be one of several or maybe many suggestions that we receive,” she told Politico. “The green dream or whatever they call it, nobody knows what it is, but they’re for it, right?”
In a statement announcing the outline, Ocasio-Cortez claimed the “Green New Deal” would be paid for “the same way we paid for the original New Deal, World War II, the bank bailouts, tax cuts for the rich and decades of war — with public money appropriated by Congress.”
She did not say how much the proposal would tax U.S. taxpayers.

Fox News that it was 'quite rich' of the freshman representative to propose the plan that would 'ruin our economy' and 'stop all air travel.' 'It has no chance of going anywhere,' he said. Critics of Ocasio-Cortez, including Democrats, have said her proposal to reach zero carbon emissions in the next decade is unworkable. Included in its wish-list are a transition to 100 per cent electric cars and replacing all airplane travel with high-speed trains.

Alexandria Ocasio Cortez Seeks Extinction Level Event Upon Farting Cows #GreenNewDeal

DEMOCRATS’ “GREEN NEW DEAL” WOULD HAVE NO MEANINGFUL IMPACT ON GLOBAL TEMPERATURES …
… but it will bring huge changes to our country, including:
• Upgrade or replace every building in the US
• Replace air travel with high-speed rail (try getting to Hawaii)
• Stop raising livestock (too many global-warming methane farts; no more hamburgers)
• Make “social justice” the driving force (government “living wage” for everybody, including for those who are able but unwilling to work).
• Egregious spending on energy cronyism
• Corporate welfare on steroids (taxpayer dollars from hardworking families going to line the pockets of companies like Tesla and Solyndra).
