"Australians already struggling with the cost of living should brace for a sharp increase in energy bills, a line deep in the federal budget has warned.
In explaining its economic outlook for the country, Treasury estimates that electricity prices will rise by an average of 20 per cent in late 2022, before jumping by a further 30 per cent in 2023-24.
'This rise in wholesale electricity and gas prices can be expected to flow through to higher consumer prices as wholesale contracts are renewed,' Treasury notes in its budget statement."

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!"

#WebsiteRealClearEnergyRCEJoelKotkin "Like the rest of the country, although far less than New York, California is suffering through the Covid-19 crisis. But in California, the pandemic seems likely to give the state's political and corporate elites a new license to increase their dominion while continuing to keep the middle and working classes down.
Perhaps nothing spells the triumph of California's progressive oligarchy more than Governor Gavin Newsom's decision to off-load the state's recovery strategy to a task force co-chaired by hedge-fund billionaire Tom Steyer. A recently failed presidential candidate, Steyer stands as a progressive funder. He is as zealous as he is rich. Steyer sometimes even found the policies adopted by climate-obsessed former governor Jerry Brown not extreme enough for his tastes." https://www.realclearenergy.org/articles/2020/04/27/triumph_of_the_woke_oligarchs_490094.html

"The predictably pious Steyer and his fellow commissioners will no doubt claim devotion to the interests of average citizen. But, as a new lawsuit filed by some 300 civil rights leaders asserts, the policies being backed by Steyer and his fellow commissioners have already had produced disastrous results for millions of Californians. The real collective badge of shame is not California's GHG [Green House Gas] emissions but the prevalence of poverty amid
enormous affluence.
Critically, economic growth, at least outside asset- and iPhone-price inflation, is itself considered a threat to the planet within the environmental community, which largely hails the Covid lockdowns as a 'fire drill' for future actions to promote 'de-growth.' The open hope, as a Psychology Today writer puts it, would be to tame 'the human beast' by imposing low-consumption lifestyles on hoi polloi, including in developing countries. Such policies might not affect the prospects for social media, search, or import- dependent firms like Apple, but they have already been beastly for millions of Californians."
