Any plan for a Green New Deal has got to include assistance for workers whose jobs will be lost. Lay off the coal miners, pay them the same wage they were making in the mines, and train them for green energy jobs. The government has the money. (Have you seen the military budget?!)
There really is a lot to it and it’s really depressing. It seems like every little thing that stimulates the economy just goes to a new RV for the business class too. Like the Hatfield McCoy Trail. Local businesses are doing better than ever and the owners are living it up, but the people working them are making 8.75 an hour.
Sucks.
The neighborhood I grew up in was beautiful. In less than 15 years half of the houses are collapsing including my childhood home.

This right here.
I feel like my people have been left to starve.
