I think I’m missing about four grams of lead in my brain to understand what the fuck porky thinks will happen if they alone refuse to use the cheapest, most abundant, safest form of electricity currently available.
What the fuck is the game plan? Just go “nu uh” and just like that everyone wants to go back to buying gas from you? I usually can kind of see the rationale but I deadass don’t see any way this makes sense
The oil companies who are bribing the government will still have customers when the rest of the world’s on renewable energy- all the Americans who are forced to
I was gonna say “sure, but what’s the plan once the consequences of this copper stripping scheme make it so it’s cheaper to wipe your ass with dollars than using them to buy paper?” But I remembered time ends at the next quarter.
Most of the big industrialists are also people in the financial industry. They are concerned only with short term profit, so they are taking advantage of the fact oil and gas are still the main sources of power, and will lobby all the governments to keep that because that way their profits will be maintained. While their profits soar, they will use their profit to buy other financial assets, like real estate or other industries. When oil and gas cease to be profitable, they will abandon it like when they did it with Detroit factories.
This is the thing with today’s neoliberal capitalism. Everything is only seen as financial asset. There’s no strategical thinking a plan to develop and modernize you country. There’s only rent seeking and a tech industry that owns more money through hype and speculation than in actual deliveries. See the richest man in the world, Elon Musk, most of his capital is just speculative, most of his companies are failing to deliver actual tangible results, most of his gains is from hype.
