Gee, that's nice. Is this another press release or is there an actual signed detailed contract this time around? None of those yet.

Everyone of them will be in a land fill.

At the end of the day they'll out last the human race and the earth will still be creating crude oil.

While there are wind farms on large areas of land (drive on I-70 through Nebraska sometime), there are also able to be, and often are, placed in areas that is unusable, like on top of mountains or out to sea.

Adding a 15% tax is a win, of course

Meanwhile inflation won’t react too kindly to the 15% tax.

MAGA needs to stop pretending they are economically conservative and embrace the fact they align with Bernie bros.

Forget about the tax, it's the sovereign slush fund he's creating that is terrifying. He'll sell it as a fund to reinvest in America but we already know how he'll use it. To punish foes and enrich him and his. The fascist regime is now fully funded, by one off muggings of our closest allies and a sales tax his followers are too stupid to understand (for now). It's a Trump deal, so EEUU and Japan are only so bound by it, but a fraction of those amounts is all the collateral he needs.

I'm not laughing at all.

You are right. Wrote that quickly while taking the dogs out. Got my boring 8 hour drives through a flat Midwest state confused.

Oil? This administration isn't even pumping oil nor fracing

Low oil prices means fracking because unprofitable. I don't remember the exact pricing but I think usd/bbl pricing has to be sustained somewhere north of 75-80 for it to be worthwhile.

A single wind turbine can require a significant amount of oil. For example, a five-megawatt turbine might need 700 gallons of lubricant.

your mom should be all set then.

He just embarrassed the EU and you switch to golf 🤣

The amount of land required to operate a windmill is usually only a few acres. The acreage that gets touted by right-wing media often includes the area around the windmill that should be flat to optimize wind capture.

Numbers are usually expressed in term of kilowatt / area. In the US we get close to 20MW/km², with some wind farms exceeding this number. This means one square kilometer - 0.38 mi² in freedom units - can power 16,000 - 30,000 homes.

The arguments against wind power are entirely vibe based, and have no basis in hard facts. The red/conservate mid-west is the biggest beneficiary of wind power, which makes this even more bizarre:

This is purely a case of people not liking "change", and thinking the "good old days" were better than they were.

no, he just priced many Americans out of European vehicles by levying a tax on them.

this is called inflation.

Some of us can afford them, stay poor

If prices of European vehicles goes up, it means the price ceiling of other vehicles in the same market have room to grow.

There is an economic reckoning coming to the US that will involve consumer pain. Which seems to be the only thing many voters care about.

You can whistle past the graveyard as much as you like in your posting here. But the time when these tariffs start making their way into higher costs is coming, and may well be here based on the spike in the last inflation report.

Pre-tariff stockpiles and patience on the part of importers not to pass these on to consumers is disappearing or gone.
