Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Who Beat Leading Democrat, Is Totally Enthused To Impose ‘Climate Change’ Policies On Citizens

Remember the name Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. She’s the new breed of Democrat. An avowed Socialist, happy to tell you she’s one. She just beat longtime Dem stalwart Joe Crowley in a primary, someone who was being considered to be one of the future leaders of the Democrats, once the fossils like Nancy Pelosi finally leave. And

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez Will Be The Leading Democrat On Climate Change
The progressive newcomer and avowed Democratic Socialist is likely to win in November on the most ambitious climate platform of anyone in her party.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s stunning primary victory over powerful U.S. Rep. Joe Crowley in the working-class New York district stretching from the Bronx to Queens is likely to propel her avowedly left-wing platform into the Democratic mainstream as the 2018 midterm elections heat up.

But her detailed proposals to deal with climate change could prove among the most influential at a time when the Democrats have failed to rally around any policy that could feasibly reduce greenhouse gas emissions dramatically enough to make a difference.

Ocasio-Cortez outlined plans to transition the United States to a 100 percent renewable energy system by 2035. It’s a goal hailed by environmentalists as the last best hope of staving off the most catastrophic effects of human-caused planetary warming, and it’s one already adopted by a coalition of mayors representing 42 percent of U.S. electricity use and representing major cities such as Atlanta and St. Louis.

It’s actually not that detailed, but, you get the idea as to what she wants. Beyond the “good luck with that” of 100% renewable by 2035, which would require massive governmental control of the economy, the private sector, and citizens, she really does want all that control and a complete change to the economy, as we see from her Issues page

Furthermore, Alex believes in recognizing the relationship between economic stability and environmental sustainability. It’s time to shift course and implement a Green New Deal – a transformation that implements structural changes to our political and financial systems in order to alter the trajectory of our environment. Right now, the economy is controlled by big corporations whose profits are dependent on the continuation of climate change. This arrangement benefits few, but comes at the detriment of our planet and all its inhabitants. Its effects are life-threatening, and are especially already felt by low-income communities, both in the U.S. and globally. Even in NY-14, areas like Throgs Neck, College Point, and City Island are being affected by erosion and rising sea levels. Rather than continue a dependency on this system that posits climate change as inherent to economic life, the Green New Deal believes that radically addressing climate change is a potential path towards a more equitable economy with increased employment and widespread financial security for all.

Climate change is the single biggest national security threat for the United States and the single biggest threat to worldwide industrialized civilization, and the effects of warming can be hard to predict and self-reinforcing. We need to avoid a worldwide refugee crisis by waging a war for climate justice through the mobilization of our population and our government. This starts with the United States being a leader on the actions we take both globally and locally.

This is typical of the Hardcore Warmists, in that they want to fundamentally change the economy. Instead of the “big corporations” in charge, the Centralized Government will be in charge. The entire political and financials systems will be placed under the control of the federal government. They will dictate what you can buy, where you can live, how you travel, etc. They couch it in placating language about the current economy (capitalism) being a detriment to our planet and its inhabitants. Being life-threatening. All in an attempt to get people to willingly give up their freedom and 1st world lifestyles.

The language itself is very reminiscent of that from places like the U.S.S.R., Cuba, and other Marxist/Leninist nations.

On the bright side, at least she’s not talking about “bringing climate deniers to justice“, like Comrade Bernie Sanders. Yet.

As you can also expect, the rest of her agenda is super hardcore leftist. Medicare for all. Free college for all. Housing as a human right. A federal jobs guarantee. Abolishing ICE and open borders. Excepting the last, how does she plan on paying for those if the economy is turned into a Socialist cesspool? It wasn’t like countries like the Soviet Union, Cuba, and Venezuela had even so-so economies.

    The ignorant, jealous, envious sheeple who vote for these people and their policies, are SO convinced that OTHER people will PAY for this and that they personally will not have to do much of anything other than pay more for electricity, but they’ll like totally qualify for Financial Aid from Big Gov., so no worries.

    They (Warmists) are so tragically uninformed and they are cult-like in their refusal to see reality and how this IS the plan to implement socialism and then full blown communism world wide.
    Since most don’t own private property other than their hipster tattoos and their hipster $4000 bicycle, they really just don’t care who their policies hurt.
