Cost of abolishing university tuition fees = £17bn
Cost of making care homes free = £8.3bn
Cost of making trains free to use = £11bn
Cost of hitting net zero = £30.7bn
The annual cost of the above is £67bn, which happens to be the amount of money given in tax relief to the richest 20% of the UK.

What small businesses need is universal healthcare. For the owners and staff. People stay mired in large corporations just for access to healthcare.
Pennsylvania is driving out a new investment of $21 million — creating 11 business centers to help small business owners find the tools they need to grow.
From one-on-one business counseling to procurement support, these centers will provide helpful resources our small businesses need to succeed.

45 years ago, there were solar panels on the White House…
Until Reagan removed them for political theater.
The US could have led the sustainable energy revolution and super charged the economy.
Now we are laggards and pawns of the oil and gas industry.
