Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg Enjoys Pain at the Pump

@BohemianBabe So you can become dependent on electricity?

@BohemianBabe If one is rich enough to afford it, that is

@MrBrownstone Well we have to use something. Wouldn't it be better to be dependent on something cheaper, better for the environment, and not coming from Dictatorships?

@BohemianBabe If the demand for electricity is high the price will be high.

@sunsporter1649 I agree. The government should subsidize green energy and regulate the industry so everyone can afford to make the switch.

@MrBrownstone Which is why the government should regulate prices.

@BohemianBabe Like gasoline with taxes and regulations?

@BohemianBabe And we know how well government is in doing business. By the way, how's your solindra stock doing?

@MarmeeMarch Electric cars are actually much cheaper than that. When the Right talks about electric cars, they only talk about the most expensive ones, to make it seem like only the rich can afford them.
But even so, I still think the government should regulate the industry so cheaper energy is also cheaper for the consumers.
But this won't happen as long as both parties are in the pockets of Big Oil.

@MarmeeMarch Well that's why the transition isn't going to happen overnight. It's going to be a decades long process. But in order to get there, the government should be funding green energy and research.

@BohemianBabe And where does the government get all this money?

@sunsporter1649 Tax the rich people that you simp for.

@BohemianBabe Define rich

@MarmeeMarch So then shouldn't we be funding this technology so we can get more from renewables and make the output less toxic? Like I said, this is something that will take decades. But it won't happen at all if the oil companies have their way.

@sunsporter1649 Depends on the country. In America, we can tax people who make over $400,000 a year and have more than enough for social programs and green energy funding.

@MarmeeMarch That's because both parties are in the pocket of the oil companies. Want to end it? Get money out of politics.
I support Biden cutting ties with Russia. If anything, he should be doing this with all authoritarian countries. We should also cut ties with Israel, China, and Saudi Arabia.

@BohemianBabe And nobody who makes less than that gets taxed! What a wonderful idea, but you goddamndemonocrats would never allow it

@sunsporter1649 Well I'm not a Democrat. The Democrats are Liberals, which makes them better than the Fascists, but still bad.

@BohemianBabe Israel?

@sunsporter1649 Yes, Israel commits war crimes against the Gaza population.

@BohemianBabe You mean like firing rockets at Tel Aviv?
