Energy Policy: Who Needs It?

From our friends at DemocraticUnderground comes this apt comparison between sane energy/infrastructure policy and bull-goose looney. No extra credit for figuring out which is which.

First there’s the fact that the Trump Administration, in its search for anything with Obama’s name on it to cancel, has done so with the former president’s signature plan for coal plant closure: EPA Coal Emissions Plan Scaled Back.

And to add to the fun, solar power generation surged in Germany recently due to unusually sunny weather, which briefly pushed the electricity price below zero. No, the government didn’t start paying its citizens, but does show what’s possible. Low German Power Prices

This is in keeping with Trump’s new campaign slogan: “Make Everything Worse.”
