I believe < that the inflation is already priced in crypto market since the end of last year. These manipulative rats are always 2 steps ahead of everybody because they are market makers. I hope I’m wrong and they won’t keep dumping it on retail investors as always. Those who hold the longest will profit the most, I trade and hold profits keep up the great work! and also Josef Dennis has been doing a great job reviewing all chart, trade and techniques BTC which has enhance the growth of my portfolio from 1.74BTC to 8.9 BTC lately..

Hopefully this passes. It has a lot of good provisions in it and compromises. And it is certainly better to start doing gradual climate progress now while it is less expensive than putting it off on future generations where, to have an impact, it would require significantly more drastic measures that would be very costly and prohibitive to civilization as a whole at that point.

The polluters will continue to pollute. The US has taken enormous steps with the technology we have NOW to reduce emissions. We can use what resources we have, and as technology for greener energy sources become more reliable we can wean from the sources that are used now.

You realize this bill makes zero sense….. the math does not check out at all for:

1. Estimated Emission Reduction
2. Projected benefit of infrastructure
3. Cost of infrastructure


This bill is making claims that are 100% bs. You wanna seriously sit here and just flat out lie to the American people as if this bill is gonna transition the entire energy industry to low carbon infrastructure, meanwhile the US DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY has a full scale cost analysis on decarbonizing the energy industry that is 22 TIMES THE TOTAL ALLOCATION of this bill…..

Wtf are we doing here?

You seriously want to sit here and claim that were rebuild the entire electrical grid with $2 billion? Yet;

- Institute of Electronics and Electrical Engineering
- Electric Power Research Institute
- Edison Power Institute
- Energy Information Administration
- Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
- American Society of Civil Engineers
- Pacific Northwest National Lab
- Argonne National Lab
- National Renewable Energy Lab
- Lawrence Berkeley National Lab
- Office of Energy Efficiency and Renewable Energy
- Office of Electricity

All find the cost to rebuild and modernized the US Electrical Grid at over $2 TRILLION….


WHO IN THE WORLD CAME UP WITH THE NUMBERS IN THIS BILL???

[missourivalleyarms]

Soooo who thinks it's a good idea to hire 66, 000 new IRS agents. Please, I'd love to hear from you.

[Rose-inspirations]

This is only if they don't back out of the deal in the last minute
