Comments for Sweden scraps "unstable" green energy policy; will rely on nuclear power | Eastern North Carolina Now

What a typical prog lemming. You want to keep your blinders on, stick with your tunnel vision, and stay rigidly aligned with "the narrative". Oh, and with that opening outburst, you may want to check with a mental health professional, Bobbie.

You are dumb as a box of rocks, Bogus Bob. If you would watch that British TV docementary, and listened to the scientists interviewed there, you would perhaps gain insight that this whole climate crusade is a political boondoggle. Earth's climate has always changed and human CO2, or indeed any CO2, has absolutely nothing to do with it. All you do is rehash the globalist narrative, which is a pile of BS.

Those targets are EU imposed, and as long as Sweden is in the EU, they are subject to them. The previous Swedish government was all-in on this stuff. What they are really addressing is EU mandates, specifically the EU Green Deal, which Poland's prime minister denounced as "the expensive climate policy of the EU". If you are compelled by the EU to deal with it, nuclear is a much better way, as Poland itself is also doing. But Poland is using coal as long as it can. Poland's coal fired electricity was some of the cheapest in Europe, until the EU Green Deal came along. Now France's nuclear power is some of the cheapest. Wind and solar powered Germany? That is the most expensive electricity in not only Europe, but the world and has been since Merkel got seriously into the Energie Wende.

Your far left narrative is more like smoking crack.

Well hello, Mr. Chicken Little Bobbie! The current Swedish government never said your Chicken Little words even if you try to put them into their mouth. You assume everyone worships your far left narrative but they do not.

Browny Douglas - You are absolutely right. HB951 needs to go.

Big Bob - The answer to your question is simple. Sweden is a member of the EU and subject to its coersive Green Deal. Of course, that hopefully may change, as Sweden's second largest party, the Sweden Democrats, on which the currect government depends, has called for examation of how to exit the EU, like the UK did. Neighboring Norway had the good sense to never join. It was one of the few countries where the government gave the citizens a choice and they voted NO on the EU years ago. Swedes only got to vote on whether to join the euro currency, and at least they voted THAT down.

It is my opinion that Patriotism naturally calls for the repeal of NC HB 951. So,if, the House appropriations committee is successful in stopping the flow of money to the Marxist solar wind scoundrels,how could not,repealing NC HB 951 be justified by common sense and reasoning?

$$ is the head of the BEAST OF CONTROL. Cut the head off the body will die.
