The Green New Deal is a hot topic. Naysayers like to ask how much it will cost, as if that's a devastating rhetorical question that advocates cannot answer.
The better question is how much does our current system cost, in terms of dollars, health risks and an economy that is stagnant for most people.
The Green New Deal will create many more jobs than its alternatives in the fossil fuel industry. And it will create spinoff technologies that will be a boon to our economy.
