Jack Burns Lives!

Public Works

Hayduke posted a call for public works in the green sector. I don’t know who Van Jones is, but I posted several weeks back on the Abbeyweb about the need for a CCC type program in green energy and economics.

A lot of people seem terrified about the auto industry and are calling for a bailout. They argue it’s necessary for us to save jobs and remain an industrial power. I say “bullshit.”

GM is in this position because they make a poor product and made a lot of stupid decisions. They ignored peak oil, and it’s time for all you free market capitalists to live by your mantra and let GM fail. But that doesn’t mean people have to go without jobs, or that we can’t remain in the forefront of production. 

We simply change.

Reeducated these workers and develop a New Deal/CCC program for green energy and organic, sustainable agriculture. Put them to work developing greener forms of transportation. 

Throwing more money at a failed model is simply stupid.
