I would like to throw my hat in the ring and say that I will not build a wind farm for a mere $500M
it’s about the offshore view from his golf course. self-serving scumbag. needs oil platforms
What’s hilarious about all this is if you actually go there and look out to see you can barely even see the wind turbines.
This is beyond stupidity.
China will be decades ahead in energy with these moronic decisions and eventually that’s also proportional to AI scalability.
fortunately everything isn’t run by federal decree. as much as they wish. setbacks are not permanent but when the factory down the street shuts down, they lose support.
China has the mandate of heaven
The more America becomes the villain, the more it is causing other countries to realign to the Middle Kingdom.
This is simply treason.
He heard it called a wind farm and thinks they produce wind there.
Shoot… I would have not built a wind farm for only a million!
You’re killing the market with your undercutting. If we’re going to be Not Building Oligarchs, we have to rig the government procurement process. Nobody can go under $750 million.
American farmers are paid to not grow crops to keep crop prices high lol
Let’s not build one for $1B and put it toward actual infrastructure, covering states in the order they joined the union.
I guess it was being built with federal money or in federal land/sea? The states can still do their own thing and they should.
I have an idea… Take the money… And then do it anyway. That’s what he did countless times in his life
The terms are that the trump admin will give them the Money only if/when that french company builds a gigaproject on fossil fuels. And it’s 99.9% sure that he will change his taco mind on that when it’s time to open the wallet
Paying not to build something feels like the most expensive way to do nothing.
Tell that to American farmers who are paid to not farm
Phew! Good! This WAR has Taught me the LAST thing I want my Tax Dollars going towards is Energy that our Enemies DONT Control!
-Republicans!
Usas economy relies on other countries use of oil.
USA is going to collapse once the world wakes up to the fact it’s being played out like a Mafia controlled neighborhood.
They rely on other countries using the Petrodollar, not buying oil. Once other countries move to another currency America will go bankrupt, and that isn’t speculation, it’s very much reality. America is doing everything to stop this.
It won’t work though, the talk have already started happening. Americans better get used to the a lower standard is living because it’s going to be impossible to increase moving standards under the current debt.
The petrodollar was slowly dying already and the iran war is the final nail in the coffin
I agree.
Oil’s being openly sold in yuan now and america can’t do anything about it
where???
One of the reasons the petroyuan was created was that Russia, Venezuela and Iran may be able to avoid the United States’ sanctions, so nations such as Saudi Arabia, one of the main oil producers and extractors could avoid dollar hegemony and U.S. pressure. The yuan’s main problems are its volatile liquidity and short scale extension, however the Chinese government intervened increasing its gold reserves to back the petroyuan.
Lower? Bitch if we stop being a world power our standard of living will probably get higher. We can stop wasting all our resources on the military and propping up stupid shit and actually get some fucking healthcare.
I disagree with this, our standard is living is only possible because we “tax” the world though money printing. When other countries stop using the dollar we will no long be able to run on debt. A lot of things we pay for will shutdown.
Like the government? And the airports? And the parks?
And medical, and social security ect.
Bold of you to assume they don’t see France as an enemy.
Again the ever quixotic Don tilts at windmills! Onward, Rocinante!
Apparently, this has been going on for a while! https://archive.is/9BNsM
Hey, if we all club together we could get through the first few stages of getting our own windfarm approved and then Trump could pay us a billion to cancel and we all walk away with a share.
Who’s in?
And then build it anyways.
Bring the money to Canada and build it here!
Then sell the electricity back to the us at premium prices
Well yea, that’s what we need the billion for. It’s the AI startup model.
wait that’s it you’re a genius. Al controlled wind farm. we’ll use Al to turn the farm to face the right direction so it gets the most out of the wind (al is a loose hing at the top of the windmill don’t tell anyone. or we hire a guy named AL. i dunno)
Hire a guy named AL to point the windmill and say it’s AI (just use a non-serif font)
I feel like in that case laws would suddenly exist for billionaires again, for just that case. “You defrauded the government!!”
. . . Hookers and Blackjack?
Count me in
He really is still salty Scotland built some and spoiled the view off his golf course.
From the guy that promised to lower the price of everything.
For himself.
European here, I am fine with that.
WHY IS THIS LEGAL?!
