There are few editorialists that many of us enjoy more than Holman W. Jenkins Jr. His twice-weekly "Business World" columns in the Wall Street Journal speak truth to power, including on the top-tier issue of energy and climate.
His March 16, 2019, piece, Is There a Green Rational Deal?, presents a government-activist alternative to the Green New Deal's "fantastically expensive plan to fix precisely nothing." But Jenkins errs in reaching for a silver bullet where, indeed, the fix is unnecessary, speculative, expensive, and not doable. And he defaults on the clear policy winner: free-market, wealth-is-health adaptation.Welcome to CFP’s Comment Section!
