Over-regulation of the U.S. economy is estimated to cost $2 trillion in extra costs that taxpayers will pay in one form or another. These costs come in varying disguises: Windmills, solar panels. battery operated cars. All of which are worthy goals.
But they belong in research labs where they can be studied more deeply before being made commercial, and not subsidized by taxpayers as they are today. Any product that is commercially viable will be brought to market by an entrepreneur seeking profit. Only Big Government believes in the principle of losing money with taxpayer assistance.
Also, in order to save taxpayer funds, do we need an Energy Department or Education Dept, when their functions are state and local matters? Do we need subsidies for sugar farmers and ethanol production? All are just ruses for more, larger government. ( See the Earl J Weinreb NewsHole® comments.)
