Utilities are publicly owned for a good reason. Your bill would otherwise shoot up sky high the very moment your provider became a monopoly, and utilities are natural monopolies.
Many of our collective bills would go down if we pushed for more public ownership of natural monopolies and let go of the failed conservative dogma that beneficial competition is what happens when there are no rules. Comcast is what happens when there are no rules and natural monopolies are allowed to be privatized.
What, and I can’t stress this enough, the fuck?

It could be a little carbon negative, in the way planting trees is a little carbon negative.
Sourcing carbon from atmosphere and hydrogen from water to make liquid fuel would pull carbon out of the air and put it into your gas tank.
Methane is easier to work with than hydrogen, but it still needs to be kept colder than what’s practical. If it turns out that propane is much cheaper to make from (renewable energy + atmosphere + water), relative to the cost of making liquids like diesel, kerosene, or gasoline, then propane might be a winning choice for renewable transportation fuel.
If there’s enough excess capacity of clean, renewable energy sources like wind and solar, that it can be converted into portable fuel . . . why hydrogen?
Its hard to contain, embrittles everything it touches, in gaseous form its density is low so its tanks need to be huge but in liquid form it needs to be kept unreasonably cold and is still low density and requires oversize fuel tanks, and its explosive when it mixes with air - not just flammable, but explosive.
Why not use that clean energy to pull CO2 out of the air and use it to build new hydrocarbon liquid fuels that are compatible with existing infrastructure?

Who gets to choose what the truth is?
That’s just a fucking blatant lie. Obamacare is free if your income is low enough.
This is also factually inaccurate. If your income is low enough, then I know from experience that the sign up process for the ACA will redirect you to Medicaid.
I believe that you believe that you’re telling the truth, but it seems like you’ve been misinformed. In reality, you’ve asked me to disregard my own lived experience and to ignore the evidence provided by my own lying eyes.
That’s factually inaccurate.
The cheapest plans cost hundreds of dollars per month and have deductibles that make you pay thousands of dollars out of pocket before the insurance company will pay out a cent. Its worse than just not having any insurance - not only are you still paying full price for healthcare, but you’re also out hundreds of dollars a month paying the premiums for an insurance policy that doesn’t actually cover anything unless you happen to have thousands of dollars in the bank to pay the deductibles.
If you make enough money that you can afford to pay the premiums and deductibles for even the cheapest of ACA plans, or if you’re so out of touch and far removed from shopping for ACA plans as a poor person that you’re not aware of just how expensive they are and how little they cover, perhaps it is you who needs to re-evaluate how privileged you are.
The ACA was good the first year it existed, but deductibles and premiums have both since increased beyond the point of usefulness.
Those with money, who take that money and the time/effort to help others, are less hated.
Are they really though? They got that money by stealing it - over charging customers and under paying workers. Thieves who return a small fraction of what they stole to the people they took it from are not altruistic.
How is it that a French political party can get 15% fewer votes than a rival party, and end up with 8 more seats in Parliament than that rival party?
