New at Reason: Jon Basil Utley on Obama and the Alternative Energy Fiasco
It's only a
matter of time before President Barack Obama's vast popularity runs
aground on his energy policies. In the name of saving the planet
from global warming, he has delayed new oil drilling, an action
that will have major political repercussions once the world economy
recovers. And by appointing extremists like climate czar Carol
Browner and science adviser John Holdren, Obama has placed his
administration's environmental policy in the hands of radicals. As
Jon Basil Utley writes, one day the alternative energy fiasco will
be studied as a prime example of waste and fraud that contributed
to the collapse of the dollar and to lower living standards for
most Americans.
