Why does this matter? Well, as Kartch writes, “Taxpayers pay for air conditioning, heating, maintenance, and security for agency buildings at a cost of billions per year, while the same agencies lecture Americans about ‘climate’ and the type of stove you have in your home.”

This isn’t cheap. The GAO report notes that “The federal government owns 511 million square feet of office space, costing billions annually to operate and maintain.” That’s money out of our pockets.

    Just like how all these billionaires fly on private jets and have the audacity to lecture us on burning fossil fuels. These people see the taxpayers as plebs and surfs. Thank God more people are waking up to the hypocrisy of these rich bastards.

    They keep pointing at you and saying “You need to do better”, but when they’re taking one dollar of every dollar you make and borrowing another dollar from your kids, who really needs to do better here?
