“Green economy” is a Spanish disaster: Obama tries to stifle the report

On October 31, 2008 Barack Obama said :

"We are five days away from fundamentally transforming the United States of America"

Part of that Obama "fundamental" change is the overhaul of the basis of the economy from what works to what doesn't work. One thing that doesn't work is the 'green economy." A report from Chris Horner shows just how much of a failure the green economy is.

Pajamas Media has received a leaked internal assessment produced by Spain’s Zapatero administration. The assessment confirms the key charges previously made by non-governmental Spanish experts in a damning report exposing the catastrophic economic failure of Spain’s “green economy” initiatives.

On eight separate occasions, President Barack Obama has referred to the “green economy” policies enacted by Spain as being the model for what he envisioned for America.

This alarmed Obama so much that he sent someone with a vested interest in the green economy (someone besides Al Gore) to stifle the report:

There must be a reason why you never hear ‘green’ and ‘costs less’ in the same sentence.

The “green economy” is a nice thought but it is an economic disaster.

No, it is not a "nice thought", it is merely stupid. People should advance beyond make-believe by the time they hit 5th grade.

Examining the issue beyond “it makes me feel good about myself to believe this” is not going to happen with the average leftist.

This administration is so stupid. It passed Obamacare in spite of every country that has socilized medicine has a horrible economy and high taxes. It has proof that a green economy won’t work, but they insist on passing cap-n-tax. How stupid can they get. Oh, right, it’s not stupid they are. It’s stupid we (US) are for voting him into office and letting him get away with it. They won’t be happy until this country is destroyed and no longer the leader of the world—as the Clintons started so many years ago with the dumbing down of America. Anyone that heard the caller on the Mike Savage show can attest to how dumb Americans are—the Clintons efforts have worked and still are.

Not stupid, arrogant. Their sincere belief is that these are just dandy ideas, it’s just that they, the smartest people who have ever graced the planet, have not been put in full charge of running them yet.

They're not stupid. It's much more sinister than that. Obama and the progressives know exactly what they're doing.

When something makes economic sense people choose to do it without being forced to by government.

When something doesn't make economic sense government forces it on people because they have another agenda that isn't the stated agenda.
