And it is REAL PEOPLE who lose these jobs, not statistical entities. How many lives has phony science destroyed?

If going “green” were such a great idea, some EEEEVIL capitalist would have thought of it a long time ago and made a fortune on it. Instead, the “green” movement costs jobs and makes our lives cold, dark, toxic, and miserable.

Digging into this article I found the following at a limey site, slightly modified for the changed location :

I met a fairy today that said she would grant me one wish.
"I want to live forever," I said.
"Sorry," said the fairy, "I'm not allowed to grant wishes like that!"

"Fine," I said, "then I want to die after all the Members of Congress (both houses) get their heads out of their arses!"
"You crafty bastard," said the fairy, after a brief pause.

A big part of the reason Spain is in the shape its in is because it dumped billions into different alternate energy projects over the years.

"Green jobs" = subsidies for Democrat investors; nothing more.

The article misses the entire point.

Green energy is to replace fossil energy. That is all that matters. Collateral loss of other jobs is totally irrelevant.
