re: Fossil fuel use to zero

To say, "They are openly saying they want to kill fossil." is NOT to say, "the federal government constantly attacks and regulates one sector into oblivion". The first says what someone wants to do, the second says what they are doing. You said the government regulates one sector into oblivion. That is not actually the case. Then you say 'they' want to "kill fossil" which implies it's something that isn't actually happening.

I'm sorry if you think actually being clear is playing games, but you seem to have something in your mind that is prohibiting you from actually understanding the conversation.

And there it is, your preconceived notions of my political leanings. You assume that I'm some radical liberal green head that wants to kill fossil fuel use, and you view everything I say through that lens. In spite of the fact that nothing I've stated in this thread has indicated anything of the sort. To say, "There's nothing morally wrong with zero fossil fuel use, it's just a matter of practicality. I would say that minimizing dependence on fossil fuels would lead to greater energy independence." is NOT to say, "OMG!!1! Nuclear energy is going to irradiate us all to death, and if we don't stop using fossil fuels, we're going to go the way of the dinosaur!!1!"

My positions ITT have been moderate, in spite of your bias against me.
