WSJ 7/28/16, Karen Alderman Harbert.
The title says it all. HRC quotes, “I’m going to pledge to stop fossil fuels.” “I do not think there will be many places in America where fracking will continue to take place.”
The platform positions of the recent convention should be a warning, energy costs are going up. No alternative to fossil fuels, except nuclear and hydro, come in competitively.
I guess we need to go collect Bison paddies to burn in our wood stoves, and think of all the jobs we will create taking care of horses and cleaning up after them.
Can we not get real, please! The Germans are dealing with energy costs 40% higher due to no nuclear, and the high cost of solar, wind, burning animal gas, etc. Let’s transition towards lower emission energy so not to throw people out of jobs and honor honestly deployed capital based on the rules of the day.
Or let’s dam up every river we can.
