Where does electricity come from?
Simple-minded people are afraid of things they can't "see" and don't understand. Like electricity and nuclear power. Maybe that's why the green crowd abhors nuclear powered electrical plants, even though nuclear power plants touch all the green bases.

Me: "Dad, where does electricity come from?"

Dad:"Out of your butt if you don't stop bothering me while I'm watching the ball game!"

Cant use fossil fuels because they polute
Cant use windmills because they ruin the natural landscape and a bird will fly into it
Cant use nuclear because well its nuclear
Cant use water because the salmon cant swim upstream spawn

When God walks across his carpet barefoot and then touches something, that's how we get electricity.

or

The tyrannical have convinced the ignorant that they want the new green deal

The tyrannical use these ideals as a method to move money from the coal, oil and gas sides of energy to their partners in clean energy.

Whenever you look at this simply follow the money, it's always the money.

If you're goin' through hell, keep on going.
Don't slow down. If you're scared don't show it.
You might get out before the devil even knows you're there.
