By Roger Meiners
Ever-smiling Joe Biden recently popped into Bozeman, Mont., in his carbon-spewing Boeing 757. He came by to give a talk in Yellowstone Park about green jobs, stimulus money, and the “recovery summer.” Let’s look at one tiny piece of the green/stimulus jobs program that the vice president and the Obama administration have been promoting.

Hydro prices “going up like a rocket”
By Don Butler
Electricity prices in Ontario are “going up like a rocket,” fuelled in part by the Ontario government’s Green Energy Act, says a longtime observer of the province’s energy scene. “You are going to get screwed, and it’s going to be painful,” said Tom Adams, a Toronto-based consultant and a former executive director of Energy Probe. “We’re talking about hundreds of dollars a year out of your pocketbook that didn’t need to happen.

By John Hayward
Whatever “green jobs” are, it’s very clear America doesn’t want them.

Billions were placed at the disposal of avowed communist Van Jones to create these sparkling emeralds of environmentally sensitive employment even though no one in the administration can explain what they are.

This is also a case study in the complete inability of heathens to anticipate human reactions to incentives because they don’t understand human nature. Put someone in government as a poltician or a bureaucrat, and it makes the problem exponentially worse because these people are less than clueless when it comes to anticipating human response to incentives. Yet, there is plenty of history and argumentation from which to draw so they are without excuse. They should be investigated for fraud and, at the very least, fired for gross incompetence. One has to wonder about the level of competence and morality of those who would vote in the next election for the elected officials responsible for messes like this. Read more...
