  1. Mix of truth and lies. There ARE oil magnates with politicians on speed dial. You might be surprised how deeply embedded in the Green New Deal they are, managing its wording so that they can take maximum advantage of government subsidies and keep millions of small projects from ever getting STARTED, by controlling the regulations that will come with it. "We're going to have to take down your windmill, ma'am, because it doesn't have wheelchair-accessible entrance" or some shit like that. That's the main reason I oppose Green New Deal, because I think the CULTURE is going green faster than a handful of eggheads in industry and government can even keep up with, and the last people we want in charge of how the changes are made are idiots like AOC, following the advice of the "experts" who are most accessible (and generous) to them. Arguably the biggest obstacle to EarthShip construction principles is government regulators. The guys preaching to us about environment are the same guys who won't let you build more green-conscious in an organic way. No. To THEM it means a more efficient gas furnace hooked to their grid. A cracker-box wood-frame construction on top of the ground that's so tight you breathe your own effluvia. Can't have a house that breathes. You need to buy disposable air filters from an outfit in China... Green tech and living in balance with nature is a ground-up phenomenon, and the people on the ground can share their successes and failures, INSTANTLY, with other people just like themselves, across broad spans of climate, altitude, culture, and resource settings, informally, over the Internet. We need more Kirsten Dirksen's, not more government programs that are just big money-makers for the people writing the fine print and first in line for the benefits. The internal combustion engine is a fantastic asset to humanity. But driving 40 miles to work every day in a car is just a stupid way to live. People are figuring that out, but you don't need to punish them or use force on them. Living greener is already seen as a "good" in this culture, so let it play out! And when I hear "shovel-ready" out of a politician's mouth, I about blow a gasket laughing and crying at the same time. They're the last people we want deciding how to clean things up.
