Can America Afford the Green New Deal?

February 8, 2019 By E.J. Smith - Your Survival Guy

The short answer is, no. The Green New Deal is a pie in the sky statement of Utopian dreams. The resolution calls for rebuilding every American building, ending all traditional forms of energy production within ten years, building trains across the oceans with capacity great enough to replace all air travel, and other similarly unachievable measures. The renewable energy generation measures alone would cost around $5.7 trillion.

The 14 page resolution’s other demands would cost many trillions of dollars more, and would impose hardship on every American family by forcing them to renovate their homes, pay more for their heat, hot water, transportation and electricity, reduce their ability to travel and more. You can read the entire resolution below.
