Are Liberals Going Mad, or Are They Out of Ideas?
By Christopher Chantrill

Everybody has been having a grand old time critiquing the mad plans of Sandy O and her Green New Deal, and the plan to turn the U.S. economy upside down to fight the existential peril of climate change and carbon pollution. Sandy O and her white-robed crew are “bat-crazy,” according to the American Spectator’s rabbi Dov Fischer.

I understand the feeling. I woke up last night out of a peculiar dream to a strong realization that philosophizer Friedrich Nietzsche was mad.

What these lefties cannot get into their heads is: what if they are wrong? It is all very well to declare that the planet is going to fry and propose a comprehensive and mandatory program of decarbonization. What happens if they are wrong about their climate prophecy? And what happens if their transformation of transportation and energy production leads to economic disaster and famine and the deaths of millions of people? It wouldn’t be the first socialist scheme to crash and burn.

Great question if you enjoy the Endless frustration of asking for answers you already have.

The people who Need these essays are too lazy/intellectually dishonest to read them.
 
Once they've been fed the "free stuff" opiate, their curiousity is sated, their interest in knowing Any more, is turned off.

Going mad?

Nope. They went around that bend long ago.

Nor are they 'out of ideas'--there's plenty more where those came from.

All we are seeing is the veil coming off, their true colors and true faces being revealed in a frenzy of believing they have won the day, hearts, and minds of enough people to prevail.

What they don't realize, is that sooner or later, the people you are giving handouts to, resent you.
There is a day of reckoning coming, and it won't be pretty.
