Pension manager: Hmmm, if I don't invest in OilSpills, Inc I'll lose 0.6% on my return but all our retirees grandchildren will have drinkable water. Republicans: No, you will poison the water, take the extra 0.6% and like it.
The rightwing claim is that ESG investing might actually hurt retirees by reducing the potential growth of pension funds...
OK, financial geniuses, consider this: By forcing them to buy or not to sell off fossil-fuel stock -- and make no mistake, that's what this is about -- you are tethering them to an industry that's dying off long-term and is not being invested in, in any meaningful way, anywhere in the world. That is making them go against their fiduciary duty.

Ask the people who think Jews can simultaneously be Communists and rapacious global capitalists.
The water is gonna be poisoned whether you take the 0.6% or not.
Joe Biden will use his veto pen (it is a regular pen)
The FUCK you say???!!!?
I never understood why the CRA was allowed to stand since legislative vetoes were declared unconstitutional in the Chadha decision.
Also too: If fund managers have a fiduciary duty to maximize returns, why don’t they invest in Congolese cobalt mines and drug cartels?
And babies!
Also what religion you're allowed to practice.
New NYT article:"Biden says he has a Constitutional right to veto bills. Republicans disagree. Both sides are equally valid."
