I assume then there would've been a less half-baked plan, indeed. Legolas Send a noteboard - 24/04/2019 06:20:52 PM

Nope. Though keep in mind it wasn't only her plan, she had a senator as co-sponsor, someone with a more serious background on the topic. Which makes it all the more bizarre that he'd have pushed something like the GND in its current form.
View original postGND is AOC's idea of trolling

It's quite good as trolling, but quite poor as a serious basis for discussion, which is what was actually needed.

It would be even better if more widely adopted. LiterateDog - 18/04/2019 07:44:28 PM 748 Views

Definitely agreed. The Shrike - 19/04/2019 01:08:14 PM 771 Views
I agree with a lot of this, though there's also stuff that irks me. Legolas - 18/04/2019 08:56:01 PM 790 Views

You keep making points better than I could. I agree with your criticisms of the article. *NM* Ghavrel - 19/04/2019 10:07:10 AM 346 Views

I'd say yes, but the devil is in the details... *NM* Legolas - 19/04/2019 06:57:07 PM 376 Views
Do you think the GND would have been proposed or even cooked up if the president was a Democrat ? AgentApple - 20/04/2019 05:04:47 PM 725 Views

I've never really connected the two... Jeordam - 18/04/2019 10:32:34 PM 792 Views
I never had much regard for that argument Cannoli - 19/04/2019 04:02:12 AM 781 Views

So as the nephew of nuclear power plant engineer, that means I'm the in-house expert & last word? *NM* Cannoli - 19/04/2019 04:08:45 AM 355 Views
You are the last word if we want to have a productive internet discussion Roland00 - 19/04/2019 04:18:08 AM 741 Views
They didn't mention the oil & coal industries. Cannoli - 19/04/2019 04:07:16 AM 757 Views
We still lack a long-term nuclear waste repository. Vodalus - 19/04/2019 08:10:23 AM 825 Views
No, we don't lack it. You pointed that out. Yucca Mountain is perfect. Tom - 23/04/2019 02:20:06 AM 717 Views
There's no political willpower to fund it. Until that changes we have no repository for n-waste. *NM* Vodalus - 23/04/2019 07:46:10 AM 365 Views
Doesn't matter what the "willpower" is. We have it The Shrike - 23/04/2019 07:18:27 PM 766 Views
The checkbooks. Kind of hard to do anything without someone having the “will” to pay for it. *NM* Dunstan - 23/04/2019 08:34:58 PM 342 Views
The Republicans aren't the enemy. They're the opposition... Roland00 - 23/04/2019 09:02:30 PM 710 Views
The facility was never completed. Vodalus - 23/04/2019 11:08:27 PM 783 Views
I don't think that it would take that long to complete. Dakaling - 24/04/2019 10:59:35 AM 827 Views
The other part of creating new nuclear facilities will probably take longer than this part. *NM* Roland00 - 24/04/2019 07:27:40 PM 393 Views
The Left wants to establish a direct connection between climate change and the evils of capitalism damookster - 20/04/2019 12:13:49 AM 700 Views
Perhaps it is the opposite? Roland00 - 20/04/2019 01:10:18 AM 744 Views
