It’s called Green energy policy and Climate Change. Europe believes that switching to windmills and solar power and eliminating fossil fuel….. will make people better off… they are now seeing in real time…. how wrong they were…. It’s a disaster…. life will continue to get worse…. Until they stop listening to the UN and Greta the Climatologist and rely on private sector technology(energy innovations )and fossil fuels. Meanwhile as Joe Biden has said….. it will be a long cold winter……

Jeff Bezos does not work alone as the owner of Amazon. The federal government of many countries share in the profits of Amazon. Jeff Bezos grew the company, but he could not break thru the markets without the bureaucrats that REGULATE those markets! The left ALWAYS pretends the federal government does not have its own goals in this capitalist ecosystem. The federal governments of all countries determine how those markets operate. That is why all dictators and US politicians are billionaire’s and millionaires respectively.

The middle class is collapsing. When that happens less tax revenue comes in for social services… the poor depend on the middle class. They are both going down. Money has been pouring out of the US. Taxpayers are paying the bills of other countries…. The standard of living has been going down for 20 years…. As long as taxpayers are forced to pay bills for other countries and energy is cut off.. the middle class will continue to go down….and so will the poor.

Short sided, uneducated bureaucrats… that know nothing about how the price of energy drives the economy. And they see no difference between a solar panel and fossil fuel. And they follow GRETA instead of asking business owners how they produce products. On the bright side… the world is seeing the effects of a country that follows GRETA and the UN.

YF likes the things capitalism produces…he just wants to control HOW they are produced,(much more labor) and the profits should be confiscated and redistributed to the proletariats, who had nothing to do with producing of the new technology. Has any country successfully adopted this system?

The standard of living for the middle class is falling also. If the middle class disappear…so does the standard of living of the poor. There has to be a large economically independent middle class.. so there is enough tax to give to social programs for the poor.

YV is extremely interesting to listen to, because he is a Marx communist that is willing to explain his positions. I think the basic flaw in his communist ideology is he assumes everyone is equal. That everyone has the same value system, that everyone is truthful. There is no system that can work better, more efficiently or give more products and equality than the American capitalist system. However, it has been captured by corruption in the federal and state government… not unlike other nations. Corruption is impossible to eliminate in any system, it spreads and grows like a virus. Watch what happens to the U.S., it is anyone’s guess what will happen. It will be a miracle if it can be restored to a constitutional republic. It is probably a one off…. kings, dictators and communism will always be the end result of any government…because people are not equal, have different morals and values and always want more. (We are ALL like Adam, in the Garden of Eden.). I think, unfortunately, we are due for another great flood.
