The Economic Impact of the G20 Ending Oil Subsidies

I favor getting rid of Jerry's subsidies. But let us also open up our potential oil and gas provinces. I agree the age of oil is coming to a close but I strongly disagree with the timing. We certainly should look at bio sources, such as Jatropha. But the Greenies are sabotaging their own cause: as you read this, they are trying to stop solar electric plants in the California desert, and wind energy farms all over the country. This kind of obstructionism will only place us at even greater dependence on energy from tyrannical, anti-democratic regimes. It may be true that coal state senators have been blocking the extended development of natural gas as a better fuel choice from an environmental, economic, and import view. But many of these coal states are also sources of natural gas.
