The legislative proposal that the Dems are upset might be called to vote

What should America do -- DanTheFan 02/14/2019 08:41AM

Yeah, after all, it is all our fault! Enjoy your wind-powered car. smdh ** -- CA Cav 02/14/2019 10:39AM

Of course an electric car can be wind powered, or solar powered, or nuke... ** -- hoolstoptheheels 02/14/2019 10:51AM

Sure it can. What % of electeicity is currently supplied by wind or solar? -- CA Cav 02/14/2019 11:03AM

The point of the editorial I linked was to focus on changing that -- hoolstoptheheels 02/14/2019 12:13PM

The trend lines for alternative energy -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 1:31PM

Here is some info for you -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 11:24AM

Lol. 2.09 % of available power. Nice link Balz...did you even read it? ** -- hoothat 02/14/2019 11:29AM

A material amount. 15% to 20% nationwide? ** -- nyhoo 02/14/2019 11:20AM

8-9. ** -- hoothat 02/14/2019 12:02PM

That is total consumption - not electricity ** -- nyhoo 02/14/2019 12:03PM

CA #1, AR #2 but I was impressed NC is #3, VA is #21 barely on the grid. -- Hoakie82 02/14/2019 12:16PM

No, that is available power. -- hoothat 02/14/2019 12:05PM

Right. We are talking about electric cars which are powered off the grid -- nyhoo 02/14/2019 12:13PM

Got anything handy I could read that backs that up? ** -- hoothat 02/14/2019 12:15PM

Looks like 7.6% total for both wind and solar in 2017 (link). Now TBF solar -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 12:40PM

Yeah, I saw the same. Reread NY's post and you'll see our problem. -- hoothat 02/14/2019 12:44PM

Yes, there seems to be some disconnect. Perhaps NY was suggesting 15-20% of -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 12:59PM

Well, not from devout, closed minded deniers you won't. A decent editorial -- hoolstoptheheels 02/14/2019 09:32AM

Wind power? Yeah! More broken turbines wasting space! -- hoothat 02/14/2019 11:34AM

I would definitely argue -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 09:39AM

Well, sure. How do you think Trump became the face of the repub party? -- hoolstoptheheels 02/14/2019 09:58AM

Rasmussen says that this has been a good two week stretch for Trump. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 10:07AM

Here's the thing about those polls -- Hoodeac 02/14/2019 11:02AM

Understood. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 11:04AM

That's definitely a mistake. There is no reason to put "all credence" in -- hoolstoptheheels 02/14/2019 3:41PM

It's a mistake. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:54AM

That's the wrong question. What should the world do? -- BocaHoo91 02/14/2019 09:31AM

You don’t think scientists, engineers, etc. are working on that every -- Mad Bowl Hoo 02/14/2019 09:09AM

What, exactly, are you supporting? -- DanTheFan 02/14/2019 09:24AM

Innovators ask themselves what might be rght about a new idea before they -- WaxHoo 02/14/2019 08:34AM

Like monkeys thowing shit, something will stick. -- Lupos 02/14/2019 09:05AM

Hereby making my point ** -- WaxHoo 02/14/2019 6:56PM

No and the authors of the plan are not monkeys ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:07AM

Really? ** -- Lupos 02/14/2019 09:10AM

*psst* you can't use that word anymore for anything other than actual -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:13AM

Oops, my bad. Should have used primates. ** -- Lupos 02/14/2019 09:14AM

It does around here. ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 08:53AM

:( ** -- WaxHoo 02/14/2019 6:55PM

It’s easy to shit on someone else’s ideas -- WahooMatt05 02/14/2019 08:12AM

Here's my plan -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 08:44AM

You nailed it on your last sentence. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 08:57AM

You might say she is a dreamer, but she's not the only one ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:01AM

Dreaming is as easy as lying in bed ** -- HokieDan95 02/14/2019 09:50AM

The best dreams come to the awake ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:09AM

That can be quite the nightmare for some. ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:59AM

Not the only one with her complete head up her complete ass? ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:02AM

Imagine ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:05AM

Yep, great song. Flawed concept. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:06AM

Dare to be great ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:07AM

What specifically do you find bullshit? i am assuming the parts about -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:47AM

How about -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 08:57AM

You forgot the part where if we don't do it, in 12 yrs we're all gonna DIE! ** -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 09:18AM

Those are the people who DIED! DIED! ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:58AM

What section of the plan is that in? ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:23AM

Oh, we're not allowed to criticize other things she says when criticizing -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 09:28AM

Just asking very simple questions -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:35AM

I used to be disgusted, now I'm just amused. ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:59AM

Don’t leave the building, Elvis ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:05AM

Angel wants to wear my Red Shoes. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 10:08AM

I assume you mean the singer! ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:12AM

The old one, yes! ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 10:13AM

The part with all the good ideas it has you keep pointing out. Oh wait.... ** -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 09:25AM

Try reading ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:26AM

Or you could defend this nonsense you just expect others to accept. ** -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 09:30AM

If you would bother to read you would -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:34AM

So you cannot name and defend one good thing about the plan. Got it. ** -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 10:18AM

Don’t play your little bullshit game with me -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:23AM

Says the guy playing the little bullshit game he always plays here. It's -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 10:34AM

Are you really this stupid? YOU are -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:46AM

So he doubles down on his "little bullshit game" and still got nothing. -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 10:49AM

I never tried to convince you of anything -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:51AM

When has this childish, idiotic clown ever known the first thing about -- WahooRQ 02/14/2019 11:02AM

HAHA, you calling others childish...yeah, ok. -- hoothat 02/14/2019 11:38AM

He knows he has nothing as usual and -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 11:05AM

True, but remember you think you're shouting him down, he thinks he's -- WahooRQ 02/14/2019 11:51AM

Shouting him down? wtf... ** -- hoothat 02/14/2019 1:15PM

LOL! Tripling down. Any other childish insults you want to throw my way to -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 10:59AM

Let’s posit that the time-line is unrealistic. What else about the plan do -- southdenverhoo 02/14/2019 11:13AM

It's a fluffy unsupported "I love puppy dogs" piece full of speculative -- Hoodafan 02/14/2019 11:56AM

Well at long last you said SOMETHING of -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 1:20PM

It’s all in how you pose the question to him. ** -- southdenverhoo 02/14/2019 2:12PM

I raised 4 kids and have 3 grandkids. I should know that ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 8:03PM

The plan is asinine on its face -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 10:09AM

Right. Sure. Sorry again for the tough question ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 10:13AM

It is just straight Socialism. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:01AM

No, it’s not ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:06AM

Tecnically you're right. Bartering would replace monetary structure. -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:07AM

What section of the plan was that? ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:24AM

Edit: meant for your other hyper-specific question about the so-called plan** -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 09:27AM

Hyper specific! I asked you to support -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:47AM

These people think the original New Deal, which actually saved capitalist -- southdenverhoo 02/14/2019 10:53AM

It is just aggravating that some people -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 11:00AM

The measure to be revealed later. :-) ** -- jdubforwahoowa 02/14/2019 09:25AM

An audacious goal. probably not achievable but one we should get started on -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:00AM

What does this line mean? -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 09:09AM

Many kids have little to access to -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:22AM

I know the answer. 30+ years ago, deny climate change is even happening -- Late 80s Hokie 02/14/2019 08:17AM

Actually, 15 or so years ago GOP solution was cap and trade but Rush or -- 81_Hokie 02/14/2019 08:30AM

Just like Obamacare ideas were Republican ideas before they turned on it ** -- WahooMatt05 02/14/2019 08:46AM

Yes, I'm not sure about the specifics of this 'Green New Deal', but it's -- Hooddihsm 02/14/2019 08:17AM

From what I have read it does not go far enough in addressing climate -- Tuckahokie 02/14/2019 08:27AM

I love it when people lie to American citizens and you pass it on as truth -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 06:49AM

Sort of like how AOC tried to gaslight the American people by claiming -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 08:37AM

Lol wut? You must have a PhD in AOC ** -- wahoo138 02/14/2019 10:06AM

I have no idea what you are talking about. Im was asking about the plan -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:49AM

There is no 'plan' to read. There is a list of pipe-dream goals, but no -- Hokie5150 02/14/2019 08:35AM

This document (link) -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:50AM

As I stated...a list of pipe-dream goals with no plan of how achieve them -- Hokie5150 02/14/2019 09:12AM

Pipe dream? Which ones? ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:25AM

Did you? Anything in there on excessive car commutes and carbon emissions? ** -- TpkeHoo 02/14/2019 07:21AM

I have. Your name comes up in the cow emissions discussion ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 07:45AM

We can count Gavin Newsom as one of the unbelievers now -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/13/2019 10:40PM

So, you should read what he actually did. He stopped work on certain -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 06:49AM

I did read what he actually did -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 08:32AM

Well its not largely empty. bakersfield has nearly 400,000 residents, -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:45AM

LOL. ** -- hoothat 02/14/2019 12:30PM

Isn't this the problem though? CA doesn't have it at the state level but -- 81_Hokie 02/14/2019 07:46AM

I'm with you. There needs to be a business case. I think there is one -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:02AM

Not just a business case but transparency and audits and the assurance that -- 81_Hokie 02/14/2019 08:42AM

I think the first question is -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 09:04AM

Actually that info is out there and easily gound -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 09:53AM

Again, no disagreement from me ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:51AM

I can agree with almost all of that, except maybe the "other states money" -- Late 80s Hokie 02/14/2019 07:54AM

Ahhh...Wealth redistribution in action ** -- Tuckahokie 02/14/2019 07:59AM

Yes, residents of some states pay a disproportionate share of federal taxes -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:06AM

Bakersfield to Merced...which is the rough equivalent in populations -- Tuckahokie 02/14/2019 07:04AM

Newsom made the right decision. Like Jimmy Carter killing the B-1. ** -- Seattle .Hoo 02/13/2019 11:27PM

What stupid ideas are you speaking of? ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 06:51AM

Have you read the plan? ** -- HokieDan95 02/14/2019 07:20AM

Yes I have. Are you going to answer MY question? ** -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 07:46AM

When you ask a good one sure ** -- HokieDan95 02/14/2019 08:06AM

Okay since you can't specify ONE thing in the plan that is a stupid idea -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:21AM

If you would just pay attention you wouldn't need to ask ** -- HokieDan95 02/14/2019 09:56AM

What in the plan is a good idea? ** -- MaizeAndBlueWahoo 02/14/2019 08:46AM

So I am not the one who has called it 100% bullshit or full of stupid ideas -- 111Balz 02/14/2019 08:48AM
