Comment on Ask HN: How to employ the 30M Americans that will lose their jobs?

Comments

Green New Deal has a Plan. Clearly the Gov. has the spare cash. Great opportunity to get serious about Climate, which if unattended-to will make Covid look like a walk in the park. Who knows, maybe we could catch up with India in renewable energy in a year or three.

What's the plan? Where do you think the cash comes from? How will climate change going to factor in?

For one, the US government subsidies a lot of fossil fuel companies, easily worth 50-60 billion in cash

That 50-60 billion isn't going to do much for the GND. You need to come up with something like 200 trillion.
