Over-regulation of the U.S. economy is estimated to cost at least $2 trillion in extra costs that taxpayers will pay in one form or another. These costs come in varying disguises: Wind power, solar panels. battery operated cars. All of which are worthy goals, but not yet commercially feasible.
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, 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 and @BusinessNewshole at Twitter
