AOC: $10B Taxpayer-Funded Climate Change Corps Would Create 1.5M Jobs

Penny Starr 7 May 2021

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) and other left-wing politicians are hoping to create a Civil Climate Corps modeled after  Franklin D. Roosevelt’s Civilian Conservation Corps. The redux would have fighting so-called climate change as its mission with a $10 billion taxpayer-funded price tag.

Ocasio-Cortez tweeted:

The Civilian Climate Corps aims to employ 1.5 million young Americans – putting them to work remediating blight, maintaining our parks and natural lands – and ultimately put them on a path to a long-term career, providing support like student loan relief and child/eldercare.

For $10 billion, this comes to less than $7,000 per 'worker'.  Just the Covid bonuses alone on current unemployment benefits pay out over $15,000.  AOC is an idiot.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Right, this is a money laundering scheme. All we need are a bunch of vicious little pissant climate Karens running around...

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

They'll go into houses, turning off lightswitches and making sure people eat their food rations raw. No reason to turn on that stove!

That's probably a good part of it, a bunch of Gaia worshipping Green Shirt Nazis reporting people for simply living a normal life and no doubt there will be hefty non compliance fines with bonus payment for those that make and beat their reporting quotas.  And don't forget the annual Greta Thunberg Award Dinners to celebrate those little climate nazis that disrupt the most lives and generate the most in fines.
