Just so we’re clear – New York has “No Plan B” for the power plants they’re shutting down

“…As part of last week’s budget deal, Gov. Kathy Hochul and the Legislature ordered the New York Power Authority to shut down all its fossil-fuel plants in just seven years — even though gas-fired plants supply nearly half the state’s electricity.

At the same time, they banned gas (for stoves and heating) in all new buildings by 2029, forcing them to be all-electric.

And by 2035, the only new cars sold here must also be purely electric…”

These measures will likely cause significant disruption to the lives of millions of people that live in the area. But don’t worry, these Democrats are going to save the planet from global warming. So they are doing this for all of us. Absolute stupidity.

This is about elite virtue signaling and power over the great underclass. The importation of large numbers of underclass people more accepting of elite dictates than Americans is another story. The Democrat elite and some Republicans view themselves as above the rest of the country and they intend to impose their will on us because they are smarter and know better. Exceptions will be made for preferred pets. Here is an example of a perfect elite liberal pet:
