It's nice to see some same posts. Some journalists have found a correlation of those who are climate science deniers and virus hoax believers. It doesn't surprise me in the least. Politics is the new religion and it's not the nice one you imagine.
As for growing the economy, does anyone find it curious as to why our leader is pushing for a propping up of the fossil fuels industry? There's a glut in the market, prices are down, profits and shareholders are hurting, and just what is the need to inflate gas prices if not to start some kind of local cartel to see them through the hard times. God forbid if they had to to out and work for a living.
Oil and gas extraction is extremely capital intensive with barely no benefit of it going to workers or consumers. Taxing our citizens to support the industry sounds a lot like reverse socialism to me. Picking winners and losers in these troubled times is no way to run a railroad.
By the way, while composing this, I noticed that jafreeman's post was taken down. I still have it up to read, which I've done a couple of times, and there's nothing amiss with what he said. It's straight in line with what's already been said. I guess mine will be short lived as well. 👍
All the best,
