With little else to do today, now seven months into the pandemic, I spent a little time perusing the energy policy generated by the “alternative America party (AAP)”.    Unless my reading glasses are totally fogged up, the AAP, and its leader Joe Biden, see a world in 15-20 years totally devoid of fossil fuels ( and jobs), to be replaced by a 100% clean energy economy and net-zero emissions in 30 years, managed by D.C. bureaucrats and manned by newly-trained masses performing “green jobs”.    Cool, huh ?     Does that mean they have to wear green overalls, or does it refer to the short time that the green money they earn remains in their clutches before massive new taxation ?

Among other small hurdles, this dream relies totally on “fantasies about the development of new technologies that don’t currently exist and in all liklihood will never exist (Manhattan Contrarian 9/9/20)”.  So, the AAP cannot tell us what the magic new technologies are,  what they will cost, and how they will make our everyday lives better.   Some evening, among the fairy tales you might choose to end your day, read the AAP’s Plan for a Clean Energy Revolution and Climate Justice.  Pure fairy dust !              WHAT THE HECK !
