Florida has to be one of the best places for offshore wind power, right? What are we even fucking doing dude 
Society says we can't eliminate these types. Society decided this was the way it should be.
Meanwhile the Dems are whining and flailing because China has too many solar panels and EVs 
Lmao who brought up CCChina?
The commenter is from hexbear... it's better to ignore them.
I'm actually for this. With their home insurance marked on the verge of collapse and thus their housing market, I kind of just want to watch it all burn at this point. I only ask that we withhold any federal aid and disaster relief when they get shit on by mother nature.
That would be cruel to the people hit by a natural Desaster, people that might not be on board with this law at all.
Further it would just give the right wings nuts a reason to point to how evil Democrats are.
I instead propose to create a safety fund on the federal level that can be used to support states hit by natural Desaster. Just call it something realy obvious, like the "Climate Change Damge Mitigation Fund". Make it a requirement that states publicly announce how much money they are asking for from said fund.
The people voted this way. It's only sad for a tiny minority of people living in Florida AND reality.
