Green New Deal Guarantees Economic Security for Those 'Unwilling to Work'

Framers of the "Green New Deal" released an overview of their attempt to drastically overhaul the U.S. economy and energy system, which included guaranteeing economic security for those "unwilling to work."

Championed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), the "Green New Deal" is likened to the goal set in the early 1960s by President John F. Kennedy for the U.S. to reach the moon. Its ultimate goal is "meeting 100 percent of the power demand in the United States through clean, renewable, and zero-emission energy sources," and a complete transition away from fossil fuels and nuclear energy sources.

An overview document released Tuesday by Ocasio-Cortez's office, which contains numerous typos, laid out what the Green New Deal sets out to do.

Proposals and promises include "economic security for all who are unable or unwilling to work." The Free Beacon has more details on the outline of the Democratic proposal here.

Ocasio-Cortez told NPR she had "no problem" saying that such an overhaul would be require "massive government intervention."

"One reason that people are politically conservative are skeptical of efforts to combat climate change is that it sounds to them like it requires massive government intervention, which they just don’t like," host Steve Inskeep asked. "Are you prepared to put on that table that, ‘Yes actually they’re right, what this requires is massive government intervention?'"

So how much money will a 26 year male old be guaranteed. If it more than the $12.25 per hour that I’m making now, then I may choose to become “unwilling to work”.

Yes, this would take "massive government intervention", so massive, in fact, that it would bankrupt the nation and create a huge incentive for entire generations not to give a damn and continue to vote for the party that's both the engine and caboose of the Gravy Train.

They mainly put their efforts in making space at the page by designing locations of everything, including navigation bars, search box and all.

It provides flexible operating here we are at the employees and one can have pretty
large wage along with the appropriate spare time. But if you are
not, then you have to create a distinct identity for your
business.

Now I've heard it all. This has somewhat always gone on by perfectly able bodied men (and women) being paid not to work. It's called welfare. This doesn't require drug testing like mostly all jobs do now and no requirement to look for work and prove you looked and just lay up and have babies and we the taxpayers, paying them to be able to do so. Free medical, food, baby supplies with WIC, rent, and on and on, while they lay about watching soap operas and burdening society with more babies to support for life. We, the white people, are damn tired of it!

in finding one of the great London Accountants only to find that they are
actually too far away from your place of business to be accessible.
