Have you heard about the Green New Deal?<\/p>\n

It’s a new proposal from the younger Democratic leaders who are about to take over the House of Representatives.<\/p>\n

It combines two things everyone loves:<\/p>\n

1. Not dying in a desolate wasteland caused by climate change.<\/p>\n

2. Inspiration from Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal.<\/p>\n

Look around, fellow Americans. The country has gotten a lot richer in the past 40 years. But where has that wealth gone? To the poorest? To middle? Or almost entirely to the top 1%.<\/p>\n

People are frustrated. They take their frustration out in a myriad of ways. Some don on a MAGA hat<\/a> and vote for Donald Trump.<\/p>\n

But there is a contradiction with most folks in MAGA Hats: their love of Trump and their love of this classic country song from the band called Alabama, Song of the South<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The song is a tribute to the FDR’s New Deal. Which seems incompatible to Trump’s views, right?<\/p>\n

Daddy was a veteran, a southern democrat
\nThey oughta get a rich man to vote like that<\/em><\/p>\n

Already, we’ve got a democrat here. Interesting.<\/p>\n

Cotton was short and the weeds were tall
\nBut Mr. Roosevelt’s a gonna save us all<\/em><\/p>\n

Looking to a Democrat president (a label that later applied to Obama) for help?<\/p>\n

Well momma got sick and daddy got down
\nThe county got the farm and they moved to town<\/em><\/p>\n

Yikes. Sounds bad. Healthcare is a tricky subject. Trump is determined to destroy the Affordable Care Act, which seems to be bringing healthcare to a lot of people right now.<\/p>\n

Pappa got a job with the TVA
\nHe bought a washing machine and then a Chevrolet<\/em><\/p>\n

And here we have it. FDR did<\/em> come to the rescue. The TVA is a reference to the Tennessee Valley Authority. It was an economic stimulus program (a classic move from a “Spendocrat”, amiright?) and it did two important things: helped bring electricity to rural parts of America AND it gave the dignity of work to tons of previously unemployed people.<\/p>\n

The TVA was part of the New Deal, and the New Deal was a great idea that actually worked.<\/p>\n

It’s time for another New Deal. A green one.<\/p>\n

Look, we’re nearing the point of no return on Climate Change. In Back to the Future Part III, this was symbolized with a windmill.<\/p>\n

In reality, it will be symbolized with a lack of windmills. A shortage of solar panels. And too many oil derricks. Too many mountains stripmined for coal.<\/p>\n

The earth is getting warmer. Polar ice is melting. Soon the sea levels with rise. We can kinda-sorta slow it down if we act really fast. <\/p>\n

But to act fast, we’ll need a major<\/em> initiative from the Federal Government. The Green New Deal.<\/p>\n

A new stimulus program to combine a jobs guarantee with carbon reduction. It’s a super smart move from these young Democrats, who might someday be referenced in the same breath as FDR. And perhaps a new Song of the South will be written.<\/p>\n

If this sounds good to you, help promote it with Green New Deal hats, shirts, and tank tops<\/a>. Tell the world by wearing it across your chest.<\/p>\n

And hey, we get it. Super vibrant green doesn’t look great on everyone. That’s why we offer several shades of green. Pick the one that suits you.<\/p>\n

Please feel free to add your own spin. Every design is totally customizable. <\/p>\n
