Here's my post before and after you stupidly edited it.

Before:

The article isn't about any "subsidies" to oil companies.

It's about foreign governments subsidizing the retail price of gasoline. They do that shit in shithole countries like Ecuador and Venezuela. Then after their socialist policies wreck the economy and they have to run to the IMF for a bailout loan, the IMF tells them in order to get the loan they have to stop keeping retail gas prices artificially low. When they bite the bullet, their citizens riot in the streets because they don't like paying what the rest of the world pays at the pump.

Wtf is constantly starting threads about articles he doesn't understand. That's why his sloppy thread titles don't match his links. Originally Posted by lustylad

At some point I have to stop responding to you - because trolls shouldn't be taken seriously!

I suppose next you tell me again how progressive the SS tax is...

How Trump's GDP numbers are gonna be north of 4

And that if you take the last 2 years off the Trump budgeted years ,the economic dats would show Trump had decent debt to GDP numbers. But you have to keep 2020 off for sure!

Did you follow all that Pinocchio?

Ask lustylad what Trump's final GDP numbers were.

And ask him if he knows wtf a regressive tax is.

That should take his a few weeks to distort

Context my lil Pinocchio, context.

Do you still think Social Security is a regressive tax? Trump will achieve 4% GDP? Or that Mexico will pay for that wall!
The traditional American way is if you have a better idea that cost less it will over ride the competition. The green deal is different, it is being shoved down our throat. Energy, transportation, and food prices will increase. The green new jobs Old Joe speaks about don't exist. A $35 an hour welder working on a pipe line is going to earn $35 an hour assembling solar panels? Anyone with just a small brain knows assembling parts manufactured in China is going be a minimum wage job at best. Good luck America old wealthy men and politicians are going to be the death of you.

And yet nobody in the media called out John Kerry for such a ridiculous statement. You are right of course. manufacturing and installing solar panels is most likely a minimum wage job and the competition from our "new citizens", will make even those jobs harder to find and YES, China will continue to dominate the solar panel market and there isn't a damn thing we can do about that other than sanctions.

“Low and middle-income families are paying more on their electricity bills than they should so their wealthy neighbors can have solar panels on their rooftops,” Rep. Lawrence McClure, R-Dover, wrote to the group, citing a familiar argument.


In response, the PSC held a workshop in September 2020 to discuss net metering, in which the utilities argued that customers without rooftop solar were subsidizing those who had it.

Realpolitik (from German: real; "realistic", "practical", or "actual"; and Politik; "politics", German pronunciation: [ʁeˈaːlpoliˌtiːk]) is politics or diplomacy based primarily on considerations of given circumstances and factors, rather than explicit ideological notions or moral and ethical premises
