This article could have been summarized in a sentence. I take issue with the ending "conclusion"
> I don’t know whether we should tax the wealthy, just print up money, raise corporate taxes, hit the middle class or what
The author spends a paragraph explaining that green initiatives are a regressive tax, then another paragraph explaining that wealthy people are disproportionately responsible for CO2 emissions, then just says "jeez I don't know what to do..."
I don't know, maybe a progressive tax system on energy consumption? The largest energy consumers can pay for more of the grid renovations than the people who use less.
I don't see any real value in this article. It spends most of its time meandering and belaboring a point that most people are already aware of, without spending any time considering solutions. It is unserious at best and lite-propaganda at worst.
