It is hard to image but at this time of maximum global financial peril the leader of the free world and his trusty sidekick are “working together to secure a high-growth, low-carbon recovery by taking seriously the global challenge of climate change.” As long as they do it in a non-judgmental, multi-cultural, unicorn-friendly manner, I’m all for that!
At a time when global warming hysteria has finally died down, it boggles the mind that these two would endanger any hope of economic recovery with colossally expensive new measures like cap and trade. A recent survey on the policy priorities of Americans puts global warming dead-last on that list, a position it richly deserves. If you want to drive ever-more manufacturing offshore, there is no better way to do it than pursue these nonsensical policies.
