‘Al Gore did his best to ruin America. He ruined Europe instead. They believed his climate scam. We didn’t’ – ‘Today, U.S. GDP per capita is nearly DOUBLE Europe’s’

Al Gore did his best to ruin America.

He ruined Europe instead.

They believed his climate scam. We didn’t.

Now our economy leaves them in the dust.

Here’s how that happened.

2/ In 2008, the U.S. and Eurozone economies were neck and neck.

Today, U.S. GDP per capita is nearly DOUBLE Europe’s.

They chose the climate cult, and all its stifling socialism.

We (mostly) chose freedom and growth.

3/ Germany runs on 55% wind & solar. Spain: 56%.

Germany eliminated nuclear. Spain is about to.

Result? Blackouts. High prices. Huge Russian gas imports.

And U.S.? Wind/solar at 19%, booming oil & gas sector, nuclear ramping up, export dominance.

4/ Their central banks talk carbon.

Ours talk capital.

Europe taxed itself into stagnation.

We fracked, innovated, and scaled.

5/ Europe’s tech scene? SAP. ASML.

Ours? Apple. Google. Microsoft. Amazon. Meta. OpenAI. Nvidia. XAI.

Just our top 4 firms are worth more than all 402 in MSCI Europe.

6/ Work culture matters too.

Europe fines bosses for off-hour emails.
Takes August off.

Coders in America pull 100-hour weeks to build the future. And are thrilled to get to.

Guess who wins that race?

7/ Twenty years ago Al Gore said “the Earth has a fever”. He promised an imminent 20-foot sea level rise, that snow would soon disappear in winter, that crop yields would collapse producing famine.

Gore personally made $300 MILLION off the people who believed these idiocies.

8/ Al Gore didn’t break America. He tried. But most Americans didn’t buy this latest snake oil from the man who claimed to have invented the internet.

Europe, however, listened.

And now they’re locked in economic purgatory.

We’re not.

9/ Europe thought Al Gore was their prophet. He turned out to be their Pied Piper.

We’re just the lucky beneficiary.

Let that be a warning. The Merchants of Doom are always coming up with new ways to part you with your money. Don’t let them panic you.

10/ Andy Kesler’s op-ed on this is just brilliant. You should check it out (and subscribe to the @WSJ).
