Yeah sure.

The federal government spends hundreds of millions of dollars a year giving money to radical environmental groups.

If that money had been spent giving it to companies like Tesla, we may have already had a viable electric car.

You just don't get it. The policy of the Democrat Party is for there to be no viable energy policy.

If we had a viable alternative energy policy... almost the entire Democrat Party energy policy platform would be destroyed and revealed as fraudulent.

There is no advantage to current Democrat Party and environmental lobby policies as far as actually creating an alternative source of energy.

They lose their political power if anything like that came into being.

Political power lies in problems with energy. Not solutions.
