Suppose it even were true that we would "save" 1.3 billion. How many trillions will it cost us down the road?

His minions decided to stop counting the costs of lost lives and other damage from pollution. They now only include the cost to corporations.

Destroying our environment to save pennies compared to what they’re piling onto the national debt in order to bomb innocent children in Palestine.
Classic neocon maneuver.

Americans will save tons of money, it's true. Sadly, the only people he thinks are American are business owners and their ilk. The people are just a commodity to that fat sack of shit.

Also, at the same time he's "saving" on this, 38 billion is slated to build concentration camps.

If the US collectively saves $1.3b from this rule and there are currently 349 million people here, it means we each save $3.72. It certainly is worth continuing to destroy the environment for that life changing amount of money.
