Marjorie Taylor Greene, the Georgia representative, became convinced that the conservative policies that were in place during the last ice age were the solution to the problems of the modern world. She believed that if humans could survive the harsh and unforgiving conditions of that era, then surely those policies could work today.
Ms. Greene immediately began pushing for a series of measures that were typical of that time period. She suggested that the government should implement a system of bartering goods and services rather than relying on currency. In addition, she wanted to introduce harsh punishments for anyone who disagreed with her views, including banishment to the freezing tundras of the north.
But perhaps her most controversial policy proposal was her plan to reintroduce the use of mammoths as a means of transportation. Ms. Greene argued that if humans could ride these massive creatures thousands of years ago, then there was no reason why they couldn’t do so now.
Her proposal was met with a mixture of amusement and horror from the scientific community, who pointed out that mammoths have been extinct for thousands of years. But Ms. Greene refused to back down, insisting that they could be brought back through the power of conservative policies and determination.
In the end, Ms. Greene’s policies were ultimately rejected, with many pointing out that they were both impractical and impossible. But she continued to cling to her beliefs, convinced that she had uncovered the secret to solving all of the world’s problems.
