The Economic Impact of the G20 Ending Oil Subsidies

This is a one-sided and very disappointing article. Hidden energy subsidies? Could you be more explicit and name them, please? $1 trillion in costs annually associated with fossil fuels? That I find very hard to believe and certainly does not pertain the United States. Green energy jobs? Non-existent without subsidies!! Mr. Rickman has, seemingly, taken the current administration's energy policy and simply regurgitated it. Energy independence? When you close off offshore drilling and ANWR, how can you seriously be interested in energy independence? Skating on the thin ice of subsidized greenery is not only precarious but downright dangerous. There is only one rational objective in this travesty and that is to bring down America. All aspects of this pathetic and dangerous administration point to this purpose.
