CLEVELAND, OH. At the first Presidential Debate, Biden claimed that the Green New Deal will “pay for itself.”
Then moments later, Biden said he didn’t support the Green New Deal.
Does Joe Biden know what he's talking about?
Joe Biden: "The Green New Deal will pay for itself as we move forward…"
*seconds later*
Chris Wallace: "Do you support the Green New Deal?"

Biden’s U.S. Job Killer.
Biden said he would not permit any new fracking in the U.S. This would kill hundreds-of-thousands of high-paying domestic U.S. oil and energy jobs.
Like him or not, Trump’s push for domestic energy has made the U.S., energy independent for the first time since 1957.
Trump’s policies helped over 300,000 non-government energy jobs creating $45 Billion to Pennsylvania’s economy alone. Decreased dependence on foreign oil, puts a lessor burden to place U.S. military to protect foreign oil.
We argue this is the one of the main reason why the U.S. has been in the middle-east for decades – to protect the oil / energy supply purchased by the U.S.
The other reason why the U.S. has been in the middle-east is so no one country dominates the region.
The Obama-Biden Admin helped to change that by releasing Iran money and assets (plus interest) ($2.8 Billion)($450 Million)($1 Billion)($4.2 Billion in overseas money) .
Greater U.S. domestic energy has keep gas prices down for consumers. The public now has extra money to take care of other things instead of paying more for fuel and other energy.
Green New Disaster 2.0
Anytime you see the phrases “Climate Crisis” or “Environmental Justice,” hold on to your wallet.
The Green New Deal (GND) that Biden-Harris’ team wrote and supports; essentially blames both industry and American consumers for any and all adverse weather conditions? So if we just tax people, wipe out U.S. industries, and spend trillions of dollars, we can finally control the weather?
One has to question their intelligence if they think they can control weather. Let’s look at some of the language in the GND that Biden has agreed to.
“Highways have been built to enforce racial segregation.”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P2, Parr 2).
WHAT? We’re pretty sure that highways were built for the public, which allows anyone with a motor vehicle to freely travel anywhere in the USA.
“We believe that federal investments in infrastructure should help cut carbon pollution…”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P3, Parr 2).
Should? We don’t have any proof, but it should, because we think so?
“…the United States—and the world—must achieve net-zero greenhouse gas emissions as soon as possible, and no later than 2050.”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P2, Parr 6).
Meaning: All motor vehicles that operate on fuel must end in 30 years. All factories, and countries that produce or process oil, gas, etc., will be banned, along with airplanes, and ships that transport people and merchandise world-wide?
Maybe France and few similar ideological countries might try and comply. We’re pretty sure that the rest of the world including China – the world’s largest polluter, or Russia, India, Iran, Saudi Arabia and others won’t be signing on to anything that hurts THEIR economy.
“Within five years, we will install 500 million solar panels, including eight million solar roofs and community solar energy systems, and 60,000 made-in-America wind turbines.”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P2, Parr 7).
So that’s 100 million new solar panels a year or 273,922.6 solar panels per day, working 24-7, no sleep, no break, and non-stop for 5 years. Anyone doing that will die in 3-7 days from lack of water, food and sleep. Not realistic.
What if it’s cloudy, snows, or rains? There is no science in their plan.
“…encourage states and cities to adopt energy-efficient building codes and address barriers to energy efficiency upgrades, and leverage the federal footprint to model net-zero and 100 percent clean energy building solutions”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P3, Parr 3).
Note the word “encourage.” Federal government has no legal authority here (10th Amendment).
“We will reduce methane pollution through robust federal standards.”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P3, Parr 8).
Cows, meat, and especially cow farting will be outlawed? As will trash be outlawed too. No more landfills. According to Science News, most of the world’s methane comes from “Africa, South Asia and Oceania…(and) China.” The U.S. isn’t the problem.
“…transitioning the entire fleet of 500,000 school buses to American-made, zero-emission alternatives within five years.”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P3, Parr 5).
All major “full-line” school business are already made in the USA. Three other companies produce buses in Canada. To reach that goal, one would need to build 274 buses a day (24/7, 365 days a year), and who knows the lead time for research & development and unknown costs.
Buses are also made of industrial steel, industrial plastics and other materials all that use petroleum products to create. So, kids, forget school buses; just walk to school; especially when it’s snowing or 105+ outside?
“We will lead by example in the public sector by transitioning the 3 million vehicles in the federal, state, and local fleets to zero-emission vehicles.”
— Biden-Sanders Unity Task Force Plan, (P3, Parr 5).
That’s interesting, consider there are only 1.4 Million plug-in electric vehicles on road in the entire USA since 2010, and nearly half of those in California.
They would need to build 1,643 new cars a day (24/7, 365) for 5 years. Good luck with that and who is ready to build and pay for all that?
Then you’ll have to start all over, because depending on the vehicle model (if it’s a “lower end”), most of those cars may need to be replaced.
So, you get the idea. We are only on page 3 of 110 pages here. There no science in the document proving anything in Biden-Harris’ Team’s Green New Deal. It also lacks costs estimates, and execution.
Direction U.S. Energy Always Evolving.
The U.S. is moving in the direction to create cleaner fuels for over 50 years. Unfortunately, renewables such as solar is not reliable and ineffective.
The U.S. has been working to decrease their independence on foreign energy, by increasing U.S. domestic energy development.
This group wants to wipe out U.S. jobs they don’t like. So much for freedom in America?
Yet, they are under the illusion that after destroying energy jobs, putting most out of work, killing automobiles, airplanes, ships, etc., they think they can magically rebuild it? Then they claim the end result will change (improve) the weather? No more fires, hurricanes, tornadoes, floods will ever happen if we just do these things? Uh huh?
They also apparently think they can just print the money? That causes inflation. Now when you have a bartender telling you how to run the world’s largest economy, you better take the bottle away from them.
