The purpose is to shift the US from the use of fossil fuels and grow the amount of solar, wind and other renewable energy. Another of Biden's proposals is to spend $174 billion to boost the electric vehicle market and shift away from gas-powered cars. Wind turbines, solar panels and electric vehicles all rely on rare earth materials. Extracting rare earth materials is a highly polluting process. More than 60% of the world's solar panels are made in China. Forty-five percent of the global supply of solar-grade polysilicon, the base material used in solar cells, is made in China. Polysilicon is produced in Xinjiang, where China is accused of using forced labor in the production chains.<ref>https://www.gatestoneinstitute.org/17335/china-rare-earth-materials</ref> |

| | + | ====Child care==== |
| | + | The junta proposed spending $225 billion on subsidized daycare over the next decade as part of its nearly $2 trillion American Families Plan. This is on top of the proposed $200 billion the administration hopes to spend to create a universal government preschool program for 3- and 4-year-olds. The plan is presented as a way to get mothers back in the labor force by subsidizing child care expenses.<ref>https://www.bizpacreview.com/2021/06/13/bidens-taxpayer-funded-childcare-plan-wont-work-harvard-economist-and-obama-ally-concludes-1088302/</ref> A study on the long-term impact of universal child care subsidies found that "the negative effects on noncognitive outcomes persisted to school ages, and also that cohorts with increased child care access had worse health, lower life satisfaction, and higher crime rates later in life.” Boys were particularly harmed by the child care subsidy program: “Increases in aggression and hyperactivity are concentrated in boys, as is the rise in the crime rates.”<ref>https://pubs.aeaweb.org/doi/pdfplus/10.1257/pol.20170603</ref> |
| | + | |
| | + | ''The Economist'' noted that “Joe Biden wants to Europeanise the American [[welfare state]]” by installing child care subsidies, universal government preschool, “free” community college, and related programs. When the UK implemented subsidized child care and preschool programs, it led to private providers going out of business, along with higher costs and less customer satisfaction.<ref>https://www.economist.com/united-states/2021/05/20/joe-biden-wants-to-europeanise-the-american-welfare-state</ref> |
| | + | |
| | + | Steep government regulation of child care programs limits the supply of daycare providers by raising costs and barriers to entry. Occupational licensing and expanded degree requirements for daycare workers create higher costs. Between 2005 and 2017, the number of small, in-home family child care centers dropped by 48 percent, with providers citing increased regulations as a reason. [[Coronavirus lockdown]]s only made matters worse. Many small daycare providers shut down entirely, contributing to supply shortages and rising costs. |

| | + | The junta budget proposal is basically an effort to begin teaching [[critical race theory]] to 3- and 4-year-olds.
