"That's not the American way. That's not progress. That's not innovation. That's rent-seeking and trying to protect old ways of doing business, and standing in the way of the future." That wasn't the Wall Street Journal lambasting the mandate- and subsidy-dependent renewable energy consortium. It was President Obama demonizing critics of his plans to replace carbon-based energy with wind, solar and biofuels, stymie the hydraulic fracturing revolution that's given the United States another century of oil and gas – and "fundamentally transform" and downsize the US and global economies. The president thinks this legacy will offset the Iran, Iraq, Islamic State and other policy debacles he will bequeath to his successors. His presidential library exhibits won't likely mention those foreign policy fiascoes or the ways his energy policies mostly benefit the richest 1% of Americans, especially political cronies and campaign contributors – while crippling the economy and pummeling millions of families and businesses that depend on reliable, affordable oil, gas and coal energy for their income and welfare. https://climatechangedispatch.com/wp-content/uploads/images_pics8_solar_farm_desert.jpg
