None of this will end well. Asterisk plans on incrementally starving America of its hard won energy independence. This will lead to sharply increasing energy costs, all energy, including renewables will cost more and more and more. Not to mention either an increase of Green House Gas releases, or tremendous increase in unemployment and bankruptcy.

Some people I have spoken with think this will only hurt the rich oil companies. An adult who understands the economy will realize that this is going to undermine the entire economy. Look around, everything you see, including yourself, got to where it is by using fossil fuels. NOTHING works without energy. President Asterisk will find out the hard way that his gauzy dreams about alternative energy sources are just that, dreams.

Kill the economy and you will kill innovation. Without innovation, renewable energy will be too expensive to use for everyday life. It will put essential services offline or out of reach for most Americans. With half the country unemployed, who could possibly afford the super-costly and scarce trickle of solar and wind energy?

Between the blackouts that leave taxpayers shivering or sweltering in the dark as they starve, ever higher taxes and decline of living standards, life will not resemble the Trump era in many ways, all important ones.

President Asterisk will greatly burden, and without opposition, destroy the American economy. Energy drought and collapse is just the beginning of their idiocy.

Actually his dream is of Venezuela. Getting us there by destroying the engine of the American economy. Dependable energy.

Wasn't destroying the economy a major element of Herr Biden's campaign platform? That, and magically making the pandemic go away.

His executive orders so far show that he is serious about ruining the economy. He is very expeditiously carrying out his goal of undoing everything that Trump did.
