"I get the whole alt/clean energy pitch, and yes it's relevant. However, do y'all realize what it would take to retool industries of the world to accommodate a zero carbon footprint. The Green New Deal is just a way to steal more of our tax dollars.
We don't need the Green New Deal. Industries are already investing in Alt/Clean energy; including the oil & gas industry. The last thing we need to do is create another gov't bureaucratic monster that needs to be fed more of our tax dollars.
Private/Public industries always do a more effective, efficient, and cost effective job than our government. Let the FREE MARKET deal with Alternative/Clean Energy!"

Addendum #ReasoningArgumentRejoinder to #CauseActivismClimate perspectives (as a rhetorical response to hypothetical scenarios). The opening claim that "I get the whole alt/clean energy pitch" is a #ReasoningArgumentBadFaith i.e. "The hallmark of a bad-faith argument is that it disguises the core point of a debate rather than addressing issues, beliefs, and values head-on. Bad faith arguments aren't 'real' positions; they're proxy positions people take for rhetorical purposes. In some cases, a bad faith position can be intentional." https://medium.com/s/story/a-field-guide-to-bad-faith-arguments-7-terrible-arguments-in-your-mentions-ee4f194afbc9

"Habermas sees the modern public sphere as, in many ways, the victim of its own success. As it expanded far beyond its original basis of educated male property-owners, material inequalities could no longer be set aside, but rather became the subject of public debate (1962 [1989: 127]). And this debate was no longer a matter of rational-critical analysis of state action by the assembled public, but of negotiation between interest groups which bypass public reason. Instead of the approximation of society to the ideal type, what emerged was an impoverished pseudo-public sphere, lacking its original capacity for rational-critical discourse, easily manipulated by states, corporations, and interest groups using the techniques of 'public relations' (1962 [1989: 176, 236]). Its role now, as in the feudal era, is to acclaim decisions which have already been made." [encyclopædia] #IRLPhilosopherJurgenHabermas #TheoryThePublicSphere #PoliticsFeudalism [Wikipedia]
