The Democrats plan to make the recession worse

 McConnell Hits Manchin–Schumer Deal for Raising Taxes in a Recession

They did through in some spending " in addition to Obamacare-subsidy extension and the Medicare price fixing, would allocate $369 billion to be spent on 'energy security and climate change.'”

Wasting money on "climate change" is equivalent to peeing in the wind.  It is an excuse they leap on.

Hysteria and greed make for expensive energy policies that won’t save the planet

Those overcome by hysteria cannot think or act rationally. Yet politicians and policymakers, including Biden, are intent on igniting more flames, like serial arsonists.

The reason is simple: money.

Many politicians are surely aware that the draconian policies they seek — a ban on fossil-fuel production, forced electrification of homes and businesses, mandatory adoption of electric vehicles and complete reliance on wind and solar power — will not work, much less save the planet.

The latest BP Statistical Review of World Energy shows that since 2000, world CO2 emissions have increased by more than 10 billion metric tons — greater than the combined emissions of North America and the European Union. China and India, which together account for almost 40% of these emissions, are building dozens of coal-fired power plants every year. In total, close to 200 new coal plants are under construction in Asia, which will emit more than 1 billion tons of CO2 every year.

And coal expansion isn’t limited to Asia. African nations want to vastly hike energy production. South Africa is completing the 4,800 megawatt Kusile coal plant, on top of finishing the same-sized Medupi plant last year, to reduce the blackouts that have plagued the nation for years.
With the rapid increase in world natural-gas prices, other African countries are likely to turn to coal for their increasing energy needs. No matter how draconian the energy policies the United States and Europe adopt, developing nations will continue to build the energy resources they need.

So why pursue policies that will immiserate millions and have virtually no impact on the climate? Because, loaded as they are with subsidies for green energy, they offer virtually unlimited opportunities for self-enrichment to those who peddle them.

Though it’s one of the costliest generating resources known, Biden issued an executive order to promote offshore-wind development in the Gulf of Mexico and along the southeast coast. But offshore-wind developers are almost entirely European companies, which will collect not only production tax credits but also Team Biden’s new 30% investment tax credit. (Billions more in subsidies for electric vehicles and charging infrastructure are also on offer, on top of existing subsidies.)
