Ed Miliband’s Clean Power 2030 plan is officially off the rails. Soaring costs, missed wind & solar
targets, and now Drax walking away from BECCS. The promises of cheaper bills? Gone. A thread 🧵(1/12)

[Lucy Biggers @LLBiggers]

This argument that “we can transition but our politicians aren’t willing to” doesn’t hold water.

We’ve spent trillions globally over the last decade trying to get off fossil fuels, and they’re still 80% of our energy because they’re that good!

Solar and wind, EVs, batteries, all have their use cases but they’re extremely expensive and not reliable. The only real alternative for energy generation is nuclear, and that has historically been vilified by activists.

So Dr. Ayana is not being honest, we’ve tried to transition and the tech just isn’t there!

And no we’re not “f*cked” because none of the extreme climate models are coming true, heat is safer than cold, crop yields are at an all time high, and extreme weather is not getting worse.

The people whom you are targeting create more common good PER DAY than you have, @BernieSanders, in your entire miserable life. They may be very wealthy but they also create incalculable wealth for others. You scream, you rail, you spread your vile envy but what do you produce? What do you create? Why don't you return to the place of your honeymoon? Oh wait, the Soviet Union no longer exists.

[Gad Saad @GadSaad]

It is difficult to imagine an American who has been a greater parasite on the public coffers than @BernieSanders. He has contributed NOTHING to the United States other than decades of cantankerous and sullen envy-fuelled anger at those who create.

So an average of 30 cardiac arrests a year in athletes under 35 1966-2004 and then 1598 in one year, which just happens to be the year that the Covid shots were rolled out. Nothing to see here please move along said the politicians and the legacy media!

@JohnStossel The climate change hoax is to enrich people and launder money through special NGOs.💸

The Climate Change hoax vanished the moment companies needed data centers.

Yeah, we noticed.

Climate alarmism disappeared the moment companies needed data centers.

COVID changed my worldview permanently.

Nearly six years after COVID began, not one world leader has seriously examined what the vaccines did to the people they harmed.

Not one investigation. Not one parliamentary inquiry with genuine teeth. Not one head of state who has stood at a podium and said, we owe the injured an honest accounting and we are going to provide it.

The silence is universal. And it is coordinated in a way that individual negligence cannot explain.

This is the observation that matters most to me, more than any document, more than any leaked communication, more than any specific piece of evidence. Because the behaviour of every major government simultaneously tells you something that the individual pieces cannot tell you alone.

Genuine public health emergencies produce genuine review. What worked. What did not. Who was harmed and how. That is what accountable institutions do.

What we have instead is a wall.

And on the other side of that wall, the vaccine injured, still without diagnostic codes, still without compensation, still without the basic acknowledgment that what happened to them was real.

While Long COVID is promoted heavily by the same governments and the same media that will not ask a single honest question about the injections. The parallel presentations. The overlapping symptoms. The convenient framing that points everywhere except at the product.

The universal silence of world leaders on vaccine injury is not the behaviour of people who have nothing to hide.

It is the behaviour of people who have collectively decided that the cost of honesty exceeds the cost of continued silence.

That decision is itself the answer.

🧵 ANC Fuel Tax Heist Exposed: Oil Prices Same as 2012, But You’re Paying Double – And the ANC are Pocketing the Difference.

South Africans are being sold a lie at the petrol pump. The ANC government and its mouthpieces in the Department of Mineral and Petroleum Resources keep blaming “global oil prices” and “geopolitical tensions” for the crippling cost of fuel. Yet the numbers don’t lie. Brent Crude is trading at levels almost identical to 2012 and 2013 (around $110 per barrel) but inland petrol now costs more than double what it did back then. The difference? A deliberate, decade-long tax grab by the ANC that has turned fuel into one of the biggest cash cows for a regime that then mismanages, wastes, or simply steals the revenue anyway.

Elon Musk avait dit un truc qui m'avait marqué sur l'allocation de ressources. En substance : passé un certain niveau de richesse, l'argent n'est plus de la consommation, c'est de l'allocation de capital.

Cette phrase change tout.

L'économie, dans le fond, c'est juste un problème d'allocation. Tu as des ressources finies et des usages infinis. Qui décide où va quoi ?

Imagine une cour de récré. 100 enfants, des paquets de cartes Pokémon distribués au hasard. Tu laisses faire. Très vite, un ordre émerge. Les bons joueurs accumulent les cartes rares, les collectionneurs trient, les négociateurs trouvent des deals. Personne n'a planifié. Et pourtant chaque carte finit dans les mains de celui qui en tire le plus de valeur. Le système maximise le bonheur total de la cour. C'est ça, la main invisible.

Maintenant fais entrer la maîtresse. Elle trouve ça injuste. Léo a 50 cartes, Tom en a 3. Elle confisque, redistribue, impose l'égalité. Trois effets immédiats. Les bons joueurs arrêtent de jouer, à quoi bon. Les mauvais n'ont plus de raison de progresser, ils auront leur part. Les échanges s'effondrent. La cour est égale, et morte. Elle a maximisé l'égalité, elle a détruit le bonheur.

Le problème de la maîtresse, c'est qu'elle ne peut pas avoir l'information que la cour avait collectivement. C'est le problème du calcul économique de Mises, formulé en 1920. L'URSS a essayé de le résoudre pendant 70 ans avec le Gosplan. Résultat : pénuries, queues, effondrement. Pas parce que les Soviétiques étaient bêtes, parce que le problème est mathématiquement insoluble en mode centralisé.

Quand Musk a 200 milliards, il ne les consomme pas, il les alloue. SpaceX, Starlink, Neuralink, xAI. Chaque dollar est un pari sur le futur. Et lui a un track record. PayPal, Tesla, SpaceX. Il a démontré qu'il sait identifier des problèmes immenses et y allouer des ressources avec un rendement spectaculaire.

L'État aussi a un track record. Hôpitaux qui s'effondrent, éducation qui décline, dette qui explose, services publics qui se dégradent malgré des budgets en hausse constante. Le marché identifie les bons allocateurs, la politique identifie les bons communicants.

Le profit n'est pas une finalité, c'est un signal. Il dit : tu as alloué des ressources rares vers un usage que les gens valorisent suffisamment pour payer. Plus le profit est gros, plus la création de valeur est grande. Quand Starlink est rentable, ça veut dire que des millions de gens dans des zones rurales ont enfin internet. Quand un ministère est en déficit, ça veut dire qu'il consomme plus qu'il ne produit. L'un crée, l'autre détruit, et on appelle ça redistribution.

Dans nos sociétés il y a deux catégories d'acteurs. Les entrepreneurs et les bureaucrates. L'entrepreneur prend un risque personnel pour identifier un problème, mobiliser des ressources, créer une solution. S'il se trompe il perd. S'il a raison, ses clients gagnent, ses employés gagnent, ses fournisseurs gagnent, l'État collecte des impôts. Il est la cellule de base du progrès humain.

Le bureaucrate ne prend aucun risque personnel. Son salaire est garanti. Au mieux il maintient une rente existante. Au pire il la détruit par excès de réglementation, mauvaise allocation forcée, incitations perverses qui découragent ceux qui produisent. Mais dans aucun cas il ne crée.

Regarde les 50 dernières années. iPhone, internet civil, SpaceX, Tesla, Google, Amazon, Stripe, mRNA, ChatGPT. Toutes des inventions privées, portées par des entrepreneurs, financées par du capital risque. Pas un seul ministère n'a inventé quoi que ce soit qui ait changé ta vie au quotidien.

La France est devenue le laboratoire mondial de la dérive bureaucratique. 57% du PIB en dépenses publiques, record absolu. Une administration tentaculaire, une fiscalité qui pénalise la création de richesse. Résultat : décrochage face aux États-Unis, à l'Allemagne, à la Suisse. Fuite des cerveaux. Désindustrialisation. Dette qui explose.

Et le pire c'est que la mauvaise allocation s'auto-renforce. Plus l'État prélève, moins les entrepreneurs créent. Moins ils créent, moins il y a de base fiscale. Plus l'État s'endette et taxe. Boucle de rétroaction négative parfaite. La maîtresse pense qu'elle aide, et chaque année la cour produit moins.

Dans nos sociétés, ce sont les entrepreneurs, toujours, qui font avancer la civilisation. Les bureaucrates au mieux maintiennent une rente, au pire la détruisent. Aucune société n'a jamais progressé en taxant ses créateurs pour subventionner ses gestionnaires.

La question n'est jamais qui a combien. C'est qui alloue le mieux la prochaine unité de ressource pour maximiser le futur de l'humanité. La réponse depuis 200 ans n'a jamais changé. Ce ne sont pas les fonctionnaires.

“Let’s spend £4.5 trillion on net zero over the next 25 years. Let’s increase taxes to pay for net zero. Let’s ban new oil and gas licences in the North Sea but spaff away £40billion buying North Sea oil and gas from Norway. Let’s buy coking coal shipments worth £7.2million from Japan but ban UK coal mining. Let’s plaster thousands of acres of farmland with solar panels but spend £50million on sun dimming experiments. Let’s give huge renewable energy construction contracts to China. Lets fail to improve gas storage facilities, Let’s give Drax an estimated £1.8billlion in taxpayer funded subsidies on top of the £11billion it has already received despite Drax burning an amount of wood equivalent to 300 million trees. Let’s give £1billion this year alone to wind power companies not to generate power from their wind turbines. And let’s spend £30billion of taxpayers’ money on carbon capture machines but put pensioners, farmers and the disabled into financial peril by claiming there’s a £22bn black hole.”

Comrades forced me to investigate Apartheid because they seemed to always blame it for their own current failures. I went in a normal guy and came out a fan of John Vorster. I don’t make my videos for the old, I hope the kids watch them and draw their own conclusions about the past. Forget what you were taught in school and question everything. Very soon you’ll realise you have been presented with fake heroes and your real history has been rewritten.
