When “cost” is mostly imposed by regulatory fiat, economic distortions abound.

OK!! Everybody pay attention!

Lesson for today:

1. The sun is 1,300,000 times as big as the earth.

2. The sun is a ball of fire that controls our climates.

3. The earth is a rock.

4. The earth is a speck in comparison to the size of the sun.

5. Inhabitants of the earth are less than specks.

Study Question: How do less-than-specks in congress plan to control the sun?

"The move should make it much easier for the EPA and other federal bureaus to enact tougher measures to crack down deceive and lie on emissions by showing that the greater benefits of such measures will justify their costs. "

There, fixed it.

"These models have crucial flaws that make them close to useless as tools for policy analysis," Well now....I know of yet another crucial flaw....

(PhysOrg.com) -- Sunspot formation is triggered by a magnetic field, which scientists say is steadily declining. They predict that by 2016 there may be no remaining sunspots, and the sun may stay spotless for several decades.

The last time the sunspots disappeared altogether was in the 17th and 18th century, and coincided with a lengthy cool period on the planet known as the Little Ice Age....and lasted 400 years.

Good luck surviving with no electricity and GE modified seeds.
