Any program that is payed for by a collective pool of money is indeed an example of market socialism, all you need to do is Google the term socialism and find out what I'm talking about. Ask any political analyst or political science college student and they will tell you the same thing. I too have been working and paying into that system since I was 16, I'm 58 now and if you count the paper route I had all the way through high school I've been working continuously since then. I'm not in favor of free loaders, I was raised differently than that, I've read most of the power points of the green new deal and have to say I don't agree with most of it. What I am in favor of, is a better health care system than the one we have right now, and there are better ways and they are being used around the world right now.

I agree with you, I also have some disagreements with the AOC version but there are other versions, some from the UK that strikes more in the realm of reality with the possibilities of very workable collaborative solutions the government and the people can use to work together with. I feel we should NOT wait for a big overhaul but rather take small steps as we work towards our common goal.
One small step would be to make every one's home more energy efficient in the long run. An investment in your home while saving on your energy bill. her's how they do it...
You can get finance for an amount based on what you’ll be expected to save on your energy bills.
The annual repayments on the loan should not be more than the savings you might make on your energy bills.
There’s no set interest rate. Your interest rate will be determined by the amount of your finance plan. Check with your provider for rates and fees.
The interest rate is fixed for the full term of the plan so your repayments will be fixed.
How you pay
You pay back the loan through a charge added to your electricity bill. If you have a prepayment meter, a small amount will be taken from the meter each day.
This is because the Green Deal stays with the property. If you move, you no longer benefit from the improvements and therefore stop paying for them.
