And this is the fake news I'm talking about. Where did she say this?
I have heard her speak at length on this topic, and she was never without an answer.
You guys put words into her mouth, and then call her stupid for saying things that she didn't say.
You obviously didn't fully read the plan, and/or don't understand it.
You can start watching from about 25 minutes in where she and Congressman Rho explain what the goal of the Green New Deal is, and how to get there.
It is not an ironclad deal. She wants us to start to do SOMETHING on this issue NOW. We aren't even having a conversation about this in the House or Senate because the Republicans won't even do that. We still have people that think global warming isn't happening, and that humans aren't a part of the problem.
It is a RESOLUTION, it is not a bill. I can't say this enough. These are not the same thing. It is not a bunch of laws banning cows or airplanes. The entire point of the resolution is to start a CONVERSATION and debate about how to solve the problem. A conversation that is repeatedly blocked by the Republicans.
We talk about things like "AOC wants to ban cows because they fart" She addresses the ridiculousness of that in this video. The methane from cow farts IS a problem, but the solution isn't simply to ban cows. She talks about changing their feed to reduce their gas, or finding other GREEN methods around it.
The Green New Deal is not "lets all live in a hippy commune and throw away technology". It's using technology to get where we need to be.
I find it amazing how the Republicans constantly block ANYTHING that Democrats do, but have ZERO plans of their own. If you don't like the Green New deal, then where the hell is the Republican plan? Where is the Republican plan on Gun control? Lobbying and corporation money in elections plan? Healthcare plan? The Democrats are the only ones that ever have plans on this shit, and the Republicans just scream "NO! Socialism!" without offering any ideas of their own. If you don't like what the Dems present, fine, then where's your plan? What Republican is talking about climate change and has a plan to do anything about it? Has a plan to get us away from coal and fossil fuels? Where are they?
You guys bitch at AoC for trying to do something, but say nothing about the Republicans that stick their head in the sand and act like there are no problems that need to be solved.
