NYT gets it! Is the Green New Deal ‘merely a cover for a wish-list of progressive policies?’

NYT Editorial Board: "Is the Green New Deal aimed at addressing the climate crisis? Or is addressing the climate crisis merely a cover for a wish-list of progressive policies and a not-so-subtle effort to move the Democratic Party to the left? At least some candidates — Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota among them — seem to think so....Read literally, the resolution wants not only to achieve a carbon-neutral energy system but also to transform the economy itself."

The New York Times Editorial Board praised the Green New Deal, but seemed to recognize the obvious that the deal was “merely a cover for a wish-list of progressive policies…”

The New York Times asked on February 23: “Is the Green New Deal aimed at addressing the climate crisis? Or is addressing the climate crisis merely a cover for a wish-list of progressive policies and a not-so-subtle effort to move the Democratic Party to the left?”

The Times continues: “Read literally, the resolution wants not only to achieve a carbon-neutral energy system but also to transform the economy itself.”

First the Washington Post editorial board, now the New York Times editorial board, just don’t seem to understand that you just pay for it

I have little interest in streamlining government or in making it more efficient, for I mean to reduce its size. I do not undertake to promote welfare, for I propose to extend freedom. My aim is not to pass laws, but to repeal them.

I.E. They know it's a ruse, and approve of it.  Not exactly an example that their "getting it" means they care about the destruction such a thing would do to the country.
For unvaccinated, we are looking at a winter of severe illness and death — if you’re unvaccinated — for themselves, their families, and the hospitals they’ll soon overwhelm. Sloe Joe Biteme 12/16
I will NOT comply.

This is one of those things where they won’t really be able show that any of these policies are working or not but we’re going to spend a lot of money we don’t have

What is the determining factor to show that any issues with the climate are now repaired? What benchmark what is the determining factor to show that any issues with the climate are now repaired? What benchmarks atevthere to show that  these policies are working? We do know it will harm the economy and impoverished people

Even WaPo and NYTs understand this isn't about "climate."  It's about socialism, and they approve.
