Big business is not going to get on our side, as it would cost them more as we Democrats would raise taxes to help the country, and mean them giving up power to the "common" people" and our democracy.

And we would raise taxes to fund the IRS to go after them!

I see $47 trillion of investment wealth is being used to being used to force companies into fixing climate change. Our government is lost. I said this many times before and it's one area we disagree. We need big business on our side. They're sane. An old adage. Money talks.

After thought.

Remember China is making all this progress with a vibrant government response and coordination.

This is the Republican philosophy and why we are failing so badly as a nation.

"Lobbyist Grover Norquist is a well-known proponent of the strategy and has famously said, "My goal is to cut government in half in twenty-five years, to get it down to the size where we can drown it in the bathtub."
