One needn't be Frederick Hayek to know this economy is in absolute shambles, about the only thing the US can produce is commodities and phony currency. Now, imagine this economy without the new fangled carbon fuel production that the royal clown so vehemently opposes. Oil would be $200/barrel (get ready it's headed there anyway), all that new steel from pickups, to rigs to rail road oil tankers, and tools found all across the Bakken and 3 forks would not exist (neither would those production jobs) In a parallel economy with Obama governance and no carbon exploration, I think makes 1933 look affluent. Carter was/is anti carbon fuel also, but he didn't enjoy the spiked production despite his impediments, that Obama has.
