Its laughable that you are cheering for disfunctional senate. I don’t see any alternatives being offered. At least she is doing something.

I would say a vote of 58-0 is NOT a failing dis functional senate. Both sides were very united on this, just ACO and her insane ideas.
The 58-0 vote is nowhere close to united. Now house vote for the public release of Muller report 420-0 can be called united. Senate will probably disregard what the public wants and do their same old thing - Nothing.
Her ideas are not that crazy. Maybe bold and a bit extreme. She is challenging the status quo. It is a good thing. They don't have to accept everything she proposes. They can always come up with better ideas, sadly they have none.
Moreover, Green New Deal was a non-binding proposal. Doesn't mean everything proposed must be done. Just lays out a roadmap for action.
I don't agree with everything she says, but I sure am impressed that she has something to offer, she has principles, and fighting for common folk, while those senators who have been there for decades just keep racking up debt and don't produce anything.
You may not like her ideas. At least you know where she stands. There is no double standards, no hypocrisy with her.
I know socialism has become a dirty word. It is a product of the Cold War. Most people don't even realize that we already have socialism of some sort. Even capitalism operates under a social contract. In my opinion, it comes down to balancing. There is no excuse for a rich country not to be able to take care of its people.
You will probably say, people should take care of themselves. Sure. But the system is already rigged in many levels. What is wrong with creating an even plainfield?
Doing what???? Promoting Socialism and craziness? That is not something......
There are lots of alternatives being worked. They just aren't being proposed by those with a socialist agenda or a method to raise taxes (Carbon Credits). The US output of CO2 has gone down dramatically over the last 6 or 7 years and will continue to go down.
The real answer is technology that takes in CO2 emissions and breaks it down into other compounds and chemicals such as Carbon and Oxigen. Put a fraction of the trillions into that research and see benefits acroos the entire planet as all will be onboard!
