Alberta Premier Danielle Smith: “I want to talk about batteries for a minute, because I know that everybody thinks that this economy is going to be operated on wind and solar and battery power — and it cannot. There is no industrialized economy in the world operating that way,...

They’ve been given extremely exaggerated pictures of what can be accomplished with solar power. It’s not very much. They’re not profitable projects. They’re better than no energy system but not much better. For low voltage usage it’s ok. It can’t meet industrial demands

Solar is fine for recharging an iPhone or even running a small home, if you spend enough. On the other hand, running a whole electric grid, especially where it is snow covered for huge portions of the year, is impossible.

@ikwilson Not to mention that if you discharge billions of dollars worth of batteries and leave them in the freezing cold for a couple weeks, you're going to have to buy all brand new ones unless you spend money to keep them heated until they can be charged.

@ikwilson Battery efficiency in extreme cold is not good at all.

Outstanding answer - just facts and data - and battery powered ( electric ) cars are not economically feasible either

Free electricity for every American? Chamath explains how it’s possible. Chamath Palihapitiya: “I think the president should try to create a $300B-$500B tax equity fund and help eliminate the electricity costs of 50-100M American households.” “If you actually go to solar and storage, for every 15 million homes, you take a terawatt hour of demand off the grid, that's an extra terawatt hour that you don't need to build.” “So the reason why I like solar and storage is you make these folks so self-reliant.” “Now all of a sudden we're actually catching up to China faster than we would've otherwise.” “We actually get a 2-for-1. The consumer homes don't have that anxiety anymore. They don't have the bill. And because they're generating their own power, they're off the grid, and now what that means is that extra terawatt hour can actually go to the commercial and industrial applications, including these datacenters.” “The president preserved the ability to make those kinds of investments and be tax advantaged for doing it in the One Big Beautiful Bill.” @jason: “And if we want to live in the age of abundance, and we want to bring the bottom half of the country up, and we want affordability, where do people spend their money?” “Food, groceries, their rent, and their electricity, and the utilities.” “So it doesn't come out of Americans' pockets and their taxes, it comes out of corporations, which are printing money.” “If you wanna talk about redistribution of wealth, this is a way for the great American Mag 7 corporations to give something back to Americans.” Chamath: “We will look back and I think that we will want to have seen these big companies who are unbelievably profitable, step up on behalf of American homeowners.”

🚨💵Peter Schiff: Sanctions on Russia🇷🇺 marked the beginning of the end of the dollar as the world’s reserve currency “I was very critical at the time of the Biden sanctions against Russia, and I said that would come back to bite the US because I knew how critical the dollar’s reserve currency status was to propping up the US economy. I said that Biden just sent a very loud message, a warning to the world that they need to get rid of their dollars, that they could be the next Russia. If they do something that the United States doesn’t like, they’ve got that weapon. And so why would you want to enable the United States with a weapon to use against you? So I said this is going to result in a lot of selling of US dollars and US Treasuries. And that’s exactly what happened. The reason that gold is over $3300 an ounce is because central banks are getting rid of their dollars. And one of the reasons that the yield on US Treasuries just hit a new multi-year high and continues to rise is because we don’t have all the foreign buyers that Biden scared away. I think we’ve already established the precedent that the dollar is not sacrosanct. And if you’re a nation and you have US dollars, you have US Treasuries and you own them in good faith in that you would trust that they would be a reserve asset, a neutral reserve asset. We’ve already established a precedent that that’s not the case, that we can yank the rug out from under you whenever we want. So I think regardless of what Trump does now, if I was in China or any of these countries, especially China, because, you know, we vilify China, we say China’s our enemy. Okay, well, if China’s our enemy, why the hell do they want to leave themselves vulnerable by owning all of our bonds? And it’s not just Treasuries that they own. They own mortgage-backed securities. They have a tremendous amount of dollar-denominated assets, so I would be completely divesting as quickly as I could.” -Peter Schiff on Going Underground

One of the most astonishing attempts at projecting grandiose delusions I’ve ever seen—“so [Obama] tried to bribe them to make a deal… 1.7 billion in cash was put on a Boeing…” Trump bribed Iran with $324 billion. And got nothing for it. “And the main thing is that Iran will not have a nuclear weapon. They fully agreed to that with strong policing powers, and they won't have nuclear weapons, which is what I was all about, because they probably would have used it if they had it. So we had two big moments when they terminated the JCPOA, that was the Obama deal, the Barrack Hussein Obama deal, and when I terminated that, it was very important because it was a road to a nuclear weapon. It was a horrible deal for the United States. It was a deal where billions of dollars was given to Iran. It was a deal where 1.7 billion in cash was put on a Boeing 7, well, not a 7, 7, 57, I guess, right? But it was put on a big, beautiful Boeing 757. They needed a Boeing 747 to be honest with you, because it was a lot of cash. 1.7 billion was taken out of the banks and given to Iran, and on top of that, tens of billions of dollars was made. So they tried to bribe them to make a deal that didn't work. It never works. And that we lived on a great job, and hopefully it's going to be a good relationship, and we're going to get along. And if we don't, we go back to where we started, but I don't know if it's going to be necessary. The Iran deal that we made is going to bring a lot of success to the world, because the oil was really plugged up there for a while. They would call me on occasion, "See, come on, please. Let's go." The oil prices. But the oil is coming way down.”

Palmer Luckey explains the curse of being a billionaire "People also misunderstand. They think that billionaires work to make more money.....for most billionaires, the sickness is not gathering dollars..." Interviewer: "21 and you're a billionaire." Palmer Luckey: "That's right." Interviewer: "Why didn't you just go, 'Okay, that's me done. I've done all the hard work. I'm just going to enjoy my life now.'" Palmer Luckey: "It is a common question, and what I've observed with myself and everyone else I know who's made a billion dollars is that the type of person who makes a billion dollars is not the kind of guy who can imagine doing that. It's just people say, 'Oh, you know, if I had a billion, I'd go and I'd drink mai tais on the beach.' My point is, that's the attitude that won't get you to a billion dollars. It's very rare that the two things come together. And so, in a way, it's a little bit of a curse. And I'm not trying to make it sound like I have a terrible life. I love my life. But the curse of it is that anyone who can get to a billion probably has something wrong with their brain where no matter how much they get, they'll never stop working." "People also misunderstand. They think that billionaires work to make more money. Like, 'Oh, they're just trying to make more and more. They just want money.' I can tell you, for most billionaires, the sickness is not gathering dollars. It's working and doing things. If they didn't have any money, they would probably still be doing the same thing. You know, but money is a good scoreboard to keep track of who's doing more. But I couldn't imagine not working. My wife would be the first to tell you I'm a bit of a workaholic, and it's because I love what I'm doing. Why would I go sit on a beach when I could be working at Anduril? Why would I go get a massage when I can do a 12-hour shift?"
