I don't think it's a straw man. Look at the two examples I cited. This is the first thing that comes up when you google 'green new deal': "A Green New Deal is a big, bold transformation of the economy to tackle the twin crises of inequality and climate change. It would mobilize vast public resources to help us transition from an economy built on exploitation and fossil fuels to one driven by dignified work and clean energy." https://www.sierraclub.org/trade/what-green-new-deal https://www.sierraclub.org/trade/what-green-new-deal And here's AOC's chief of staff on the green new deal: "“Do you guys think of it as a climate thing?” Chakrabarti continued. “Because we really think of it as a how-do-you-change-the-entire-economy thing.” " Second is Jay Inslee, the democratic running for president who has made fighting climate change the centerpiece of his campaign. https://www.jayinslee.com/climate-mission https://www.jayinslee.com/climate-mission Look at his four points. Point three is "fighting for environmental justice & economic inclusion". Two of the other points are subsidies, one for clean energy, the other for a jobs program. The last one -- getting rid of subsidies for fossil fuel industries -- is a good idea. Control f'ing for the word tax (as in carbon tax) gives no results. Neither does cap, nor trade.
