Why, because you don't want to believe it? Everything stated is literally in the bill. This is from yesterday:
The bill now in the House takes an ax to clean energy incentives, including killing a 30% tax credit for rooftop residential solar by the end of the year that the Biden administrationâ(TM)s Inflation Reduction Act had extended into the next decade. Trump has called the clean energy tax credits in the climate law part of a âoegreen new scamâ that improperly shifts taxpayer subsidies to help the âoeglobalist climate agendaâ and energy sources like wind and solar.
Of course the hypocrisy from those who applaud this cutting isn't lost on people with at least one brain cell:
âoeIf you require a money-spigot from Washington to make your business viable, it probably shouldnâ(TM)t have been in business in the first place,â said Adam Michel, director of tax policy studies at the Cato Institute, a libertarian think tank.
Funny how they never mention the money-spigot from Washington the oil and gas companies have received since day one, or the huge subisidies companies like Haliburton receive every year.
Oh look, here is the actual wording from the House bill posted on the congressional web site. But they're lying about this as well, right?
