    And the energy / enviromental aims of Mr O'Neill's political brand ?

    What (R) House member is advancing far reaching goals ? Any far reaching goals - in any area

    no one is attaching the other half of the proposal - Sen Merkley of Oregon
    Hmmm wonder what that is all about

    and perhaps this bill goes no where. The necessity of facing our energy / environmental issues will not go away.

    So let me ask again what is the (R) counter approach ?
    Coal ?

    Obvious by their campaign tactics of personal demonetization rather than policy proposals

    (R) lacks ideas. Have since 1980 when they were given the keys to the car of state.
    But boy do they have some oppo research guys

    and even the ideas they pushed in 1980 have proven to be disastrous . Witness Donald Trump.

    So again (R) what are your energy / environmental proposals ?

    Nobody is doing personal attacks.

    They are, in fact, attacking horrible ideas

    Replace every building in the country? Eliminate cows? This is how Trump will win. This is why Pelosi is mocking them

    I would think you would have learned how to read blogs since the disastrous 79% claim
    the three times I've asked, yet there appears to be no opposite view other than "we cant do it ... "





    This is why Pelosi is mocking them

    Your political naivete is showing , Pelosi does not mock her caucus in public or the press.


    you are a walking solution in search of a problem.

    That’s actually one of the best ideas. Air travel is straight trash. Anyone who’s experienced a good high-speed train network and prefers air travel for shorter-haul travel has been huffing paint or something.

    most refreshing to me in the new class of legislators is frequent use of the words "opportunity" and "possible"

    The language of JFK and Obama.
    FDR

    You could make a pretty good case that Anerica’s addiction to 1-person/1-car travel and cheap gas has—whatever its upside in empowerment and growth—come with a significant and mostly unacknowledged downside in externalities like ecological damage and public health effects, market-distorting subsidies and preferences for industry, to say nothing of decades of military adventurism in oil-producing regions. It’s way past time to have a public conversation that includes frank discussion of the costs involved, in both directions. I’m not sure how practical any proposed remedies would be, but I’m pleased to see the conversation start.

    First of all, it is impossible for me to take anyone seriously who has read this proposal and not completely dismissed it as laughable nonsense.

    Second of all, if we somehow implemented this, it would do nothing to solve the China and India problem which is the actual problem.

    Third of all, if we implemented this, we'd have no money to do anything ever again, and.our GDP would collapse as we go back to horse carriages.

    I have no clue what healthcare and free money for people unwilling to work has to do withh climate change...

    The only reason we can even talk about doing big idea is because we are rich... This is the fastest way to get to Venezuela.

    Y'all cant actually be taking this seriously, are you? Y'all can't keep mocking me for saying the left has lost its mind when you endorse eliminating cows, cars and planes (seriously would love to hear how that works in reality)
