Is the American Climate Corps a genuine effort to combat environmental challenges, or is it just another costly government ploy? Join host Karl Michael and guest Patrick Scott as we challenge the mainstream narrative on climate policies and expose the potential consequences of the Biden administration's latest executive order. We question whether planting trees and building trails is really the answer to our climate crisis, and explore the economic implications of diverting funds from the private sector to government programs. This episode promises a critical examination of the true motives behind the American Climate Corps and its potential impact on job creation and economic growth.
Together, we scrutinize the controversy surrounding the Willow oil project and the role of influential groups like the Sunrise Movement and NextGen America. With claims that the US has faced an increased number of costly weather disasters, we question if these assertions are being used to justify flawed economic strategies. Are these government initiatives truly driven by environmental concerns, or are they attempts to expand governmental control under the guise of climate action? Get ready for an eye-opening discussion that challenges the conventional wisdom of climate change policies and invites you to reconsider the narrative you've been told.

Speaker 1 (00:02):
The Climate Change Hoax.
If you're suspicious that thisclimate change stuff may be
exaggerated or just total BS,you've come to the right place.
Welcome to the Climate ChangeHoax Podcast With your host,
carl Michael.
Here you'll learn the truthabout the deceivers who want you
(00:25):
to believe we can actuallycontrol the weather.
We cannot.
The real goal is to control you.
This is the climate change hoax.
Speaker 2 (00:40):
And greetings crisis deniers.
Well, pat, welcome back to theshow.
Yeah, it's been a while.
Well, looks like the Democratshave learned absolutely nothing
from the eight-year-longdisaster they created in the
1930s.
Recently, after Congress saidno to the regime's New
(01:01):
Deal-style climate program, theydid it anyway through executive
order.
It's a stupid, costly programthat will supposedly employ more
than 20,000 young adults.
They'll build trails, planttrees, install solar panels and
other do-gooder projects thatwill have little to no impact on
(01:23):
the climate and could even takejobs away from others looking
for work.
Now the Socialist Democrats andenvironmentalist wackos pushed
Biden into issuing an executiveorder that authorizes what is
now called the American ClimateCorps.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
The Democrats believe the way to solve a problem is
to create a government programand throw money at it.
This way of thinking is flawedand could never work, and here's
why.
For every job that thegovernment creates requires
government resources to pay forthat position.
Government resources are thetaxes we pay.
(02:05):
In other words, for everydollar that the government
spends, it's taking a dollar andcharging that and taking it
from the private sector.
This deprives the privatesector of the necessary capital
to promote economic growth.
The more the government spends,the more the government takes
from us.
Now you add the climate changealarmist policies that greatly
(02:28):
reduce our ability to utilize asubstantial number of natural
resources right here at home.
This raises the cost of thenumber one greatest influencer
of our economy fuel and energy.
Fuel and energy.
In two short years, the Bidenadministration has
(02:48):
single-handedly spent more moneythan any president in our
history, causing 30 plus percentinflation, signed negative oil
and gas regulations that haveraised the cost of doing all
business in this country, whichcan be seen in every product
sold.
Speaker 2 (03:02):
Absolutely right, and you know, after Biden approved
this huge oil rig called Willow,opponents of the program
claimed it put his climatelegacy at risk and was a breach
of his 2020 campaign promise tostop new oil drilling on federal
lands.
Supporters of this thing arebeing led by the Sunrise
(03:25):
Movement.
You ever heard of those guys?
Can't say that I have.
You probably don't want to knowthem anyway.
They're a bunch of liberals,but they're claiming the program
will put a new generation towork, stopping the climate
crisis, because everybody knows,if you plant trees and build
trails, that'll immediately stopthe climate crisis.
(03:46):
Right?
Speaker 1 (03:47):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (03:47):
Yeah, anyway, the head wacko over at the Sunrise
Movement said this the pathtowards a Green New Deal is
beginning to become visible.
The president of Next GenAmerica said this Do you know
those guys?
No, I kind of do.
Anyway, the president of thisorganization said this.
(04:10):
He says young people nationwideare excited to see the launch
of the American Climate Corpsand, by the way, nextgen America
.
They started out in 2013 as abunch of climate activists.
I've been kind of watchingthese guys for a while, but
guess what?
They shifted their focus topromote registration and
(04:33):
mobilization for young voters.
Well, the young mush, the mush.
I wonder if there's aconnection there.
The mush, I wonder if there's aconnection there.
This climate core had beenproposed along with other hidden
(04:53):
programs in that stupidInflation Reduction Act.
That was anything but.
But this climate core was giventhe boot after strong
opposition from Republicans andconcerns about costs.
House Republicans have rightlycalled it a socialist nightmare
that would raise taxes andhamper this already struggling
economy.
Speaker 3 (05:12):
See, this American climate court is doomed to fail
because the government doesn'tcreate jobs.
They only create a higher taxburden on the private sector,
where that's where only realjobs and economic growth is
possible.
Yep, the Democrats cite thereason for this program is that
(05:35):
US has experienced 22 weather orclimate disasters in 2020,
which is an increase of six fromthe previous annual reports.
Of course, they measure theseevents in dollar cost, meaning,
in 2020, they say we haveexperienced $22 billion
disasters.
(05:55):
But with all things, democrats,you need to know what they are
not telling you a phenomenonknown as the expanding bullseye
effect, the bullseye effect,what is that?
Speaker 2 (06:09):
The?
Speaker 3 (06:10):
bullseye effect is basically this, and if you want
to know more about this, you'dneed to read the book False
Alarm by Bjorn Lomberg.
I'll probably butcher that he'sa visiting professor at
(06:30):
Copenhagen Business School andvisiting fellow at Stanford
University's Hoover Institute,but it's basically this.
So the climate impact willresult in more costly disasters,
not because climate change iscausing more weather events.
It's basically as populationincreases and development takes
(06:52):
up a greater proportion of totalland, especially in high risk
areas, the potential is high forthese weather events will hit
somewhere in that bullseye rightA much greater chance.
This is the reason whyDemocrats measure the cost and
not the actual number of actualevents.
(07:14):
As an example that was given inthe book, the coastal cities of
Florida, even in 1990, wasn'tnot all that heavily populated.
However, since then, thecoastal population has increased
like 67 fold, meaning goingfrom less than a quarter a
million to over 16 million in2020.
You can see this is aconvenient.
(07:36):
This is convenient for the left, right, right, because even
though the strength ofhurricanes remain unchanged,
there would still be far moredamage done now because of this
expanded bullseye.
Speaker 2 (07:49):
Yep, yep.
And this money for theseprograms?
At least 10 states will becompeting for a piece of the
EPA's four point six billiondollar grant EPA's $4.6 billion
grant.
They are California, colorado,maine, michigan, washington,
(08:10):
arizona, maryland, minnesota,north Carolina and Utah.
With the exception of Utah,no-transcript.
What are the chances some ofthis money ends up in Democrat
(08:31):
campaign funds?
Speaker 3 (08:35):
Probably pretty high.
Speaker 2 (08:38):
You know Biden's critics.
They bitched about the approvalof this willow that I mentioned
earlier, but now all isforgiven because of the new jobs
program, and that's all it is,folks.
It's a jobs program modeledafter the Civilian Conservation
Corps and WPA of the 1930s,created by another Democrat with
(09:03):
a talent for handing outfederal dollars at the right
time, you know, just beforeelections and in the right
places.
His name Franklin D Roosevelt.
Speaker 3 (09:17):
You know the Democrats consider FDR's New
Deal a success, specificallythat Civilian Conservation Corps
.
The aim was to give unskilledyoung men the opportunity to
work on, you know, things likeprevention of forest fires,
(09:37):
planting trees.
Speaker 2 (09:39):
That sounds awful familiar.
Speaker 3 (09:41):
Pest and disease control, construction
maintenance, repair of paths,trails and fire lanes in the
national parks and forests.
The problem is the Democratslie.
It was not a success.
Fdr took office in March 1933.
(10:01):
The unemployment rate was 25.3%.
Over the next few years, fdr'sadministration would implement
the new deal.
Programs that were supposed tosimulate the economy and reduce
unemployment sound familiar.
Oh yeah, yep, yep, uh claims.
You know, much like biden'sinflation reduction act, where
(10:22):
the government spends 500billion dollars on things like
reducing carbon emissions andgrowing the size of the internal
revenue service and improvingtaxpayer compliance, all of
which has zero impact onreducing inflation.
Actually, it has the oppositeeffect, totally opposite effect.
(10:43):
So FDR's New Deal it had zeroeffect on unemployment.
Speaker 2 (10:55):
By the end of 1939, the unemployment rate was still
above 15%.
Well, on May 6th 1939, henryMorgenthau, then Treasury
Secretary, confirmed toRoosevelt that his New Deal to
stop the Great Depression was acomplete and total failure.
Well it was, he told Roosevelt,quote we are spending more than
(11:16):
we have ever spent before andit does not work.
I say, after eight years ofthis administration we have just
as much unemployment as when westarted and an enormous debt to
boot.
Speaker 3 (11:31):
That's where we are today.
Yep, we've spent even moremoney.
The climate crisis is a hoax.
Absolutely.
Any climate program that thegovernment creates will be one
more nail in our republic'scoffin Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Well, pat, you can bet your ass, the Democrats will
cheat in the next electioncycle, no doubt, but it will be
much harder.
So they're going to tryRoosevelt's vote buying scheme,
but this time under the guise ofclimate action.
Well, pat, thanks a lot forbeing on the show.
(12:09):
We'll have you back from timeto time.
And thanks for thanks, forthanks for the 20 bucks.
I appreciate that.
Speaker 3 (12:21):
I enjoyed it.
Speaker 2 (12:22):
Cheers.
