To create another crisis where they can pick the winners to "solve" it. And by pick I mean whoever stuffs the most cash in an envelope.
Remember Solyndra and A123? |

They mostly live in big cities and don't own cars. The majority of them take public transportation or ride bicycles.

Because they don't want us in our cars. They want to price it so high that the only people that can afford it are them and their rich friends.

Only the elite have cars. Peasants walk, bicycle, or take the bus/streetcar. Just like the Soviet Union and old China under Mao.

They just stole the election box in broad day light, intimidated/corrupted the judiciary box along with the soap box. Now people are asking questions that were answered at least 15 years ago. And others talking about how to go forward like the system still works, as if none of the shit just got shoved right in their faces. Nope, I don't think they are the stupid. |

Because the environment is the god that they worship and they consider humans a virus which needs to be eradicated Anything they can do to destroy or at least somewhat harm humans they don't consider a problem... You never wondered why they also love abortion, assisted suicide, gun control, letting murderers out early, etc? Kills off more people, so the libs love it.
Increased gas and oil prices will cause food and goods to increase in cost, making it harder for the lower and middle class to afford to live... Crime will increase, murders increase, etc.... No down side for them. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: They have to create conditions for them to grift off of government spending on green energy. Green energy can't compete against fossil fuels under normal market conditions. It requires government to create artificially high prices of fossil fuel energy and subsidies for renewable energy. That's all this is about, making money for political insiders off of the taxpayer. All this global warming stuff is smokescreen and fake justification. Purrrrfect ^^ |

Quote HistoryQuoted: a lot think we can all just take the bus and why do we need cars? I've heard that argument from Liberals Lots of times. They will stand at traffic choke points and say "Look at all of the cars that could be replaced by buses." When the reality is that those people are coming from Lots of different places going to Lots of different places at different times. And it is Not conducive to use buses in that situation.

At the plebe level, the idea is to force the industry and populace off those evil, environmentally detrimental fossil fuels. At the political level, its one huge lolz cash grab slush fund made up of people who don't believe it any more than you or I, but are happy to assfuck their lessers for their payday.
Its basically a pyramid scheme with the true believers at the bottom feeding the politico at the top. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Control ! This. Their perfect (and easy to control) world is all of us little people living in 600 sqft apartments in a 1,000 unit government-controlled complex, and then taking govt controlled mass transit to our menial jobs that keep us busy but don’t pay enough to be independent of a government “assistance” subsidy (aka, UBI) which of course, they can withhold if you speak up against them. Freely driving around and living in single family homes too far from our work is often contrary to the common good, comrade. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Lol no. It's literally how they get paid. When we're buying gas and oil from other countries politicians get sweet kickbacks. Their kids get prime jobs. It's the money laundering mechanism. The environment has nothing to do with it. The environment is just cover cause it's hard to argue against "Dave the environment" It's a cover to levy taxes and laws. It reduces freedom, it increases dependency. This is it. Always follow the money. |

My belief is that the neocons have basically taken control of the Democratic Party. They want to make our country dependent on Saudi Arabia again, so that next time the Saudis or some of our other “allies” in the Middle East get involved in a conflict, it’s easier to sell our intervention on national security grounds. “We can’t allow our citizens and hospitals to not have the oil they need to function! We must invade to protect our way of life!” Etc. It all makes it easier to entangle us in wars.
Just my opinion. |

Politicians pass bills for whomever gives them the most money.
Gas/oil companies have tons of money to bribe them. We literally pay big corporations, to pay the politicians, to fuck us over.  Jus tlike most of George Soros' money comes dirrectly from the poeple he is fucking over. Just like we pay google for cell phones so they can use cell phones to gather data on us, which they turn around and sell. Ther eis a reason why cell phones are given away "free", and why things like facebook are "free". If you aren't paying for a "service" it is because YOU ARE THE PRODUCT. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Couple of reasons. In conjunction with other policies that take money out of the working person’s pocket, it puts more heat on people, pushing them past poverty lines. Meaning more assistance. Meaning more people on govt assistance. That justifies them cyclically raising taxes to fund more of their programs - that really just put more money in their pockets and gives them more control. Next, look closely - a lot of them, despite their rhetoric, are making a lot of money from investments in oil companies. So more cash flow to oil companies means higher returns and dividends to them. And the big corporations take the money they make and send it back to the politicians to get them to pass more laws that make the big corporations more money, so they can in turn give the politicians MORE money, so the politicians will pass more laws that make the big corporations MORE money, ad infinitum. Recall when Obama sent all those Billions to Iran? How much did Iran secretly kick back to Obama?  |
