The American Spectator : AmSpecBlog : "Did I Say 'End of the World?' I Meant 'Jobs'"
Yeah. That's it.

As the FT reports today, the EU is still demanding that it's not fair that the U.S. not do the same harm to ourselves that they did to themselves, and can't undo. Only they've tweaked their rationale slightly for why we should hobble ourselves and, effectively, commit to buying their stuff to bail out their bubble industries (see those billions in 'stimulus' money going to Iberdrola et al.). That whole end is nigh business is just so pre-ClimateGate. Now it is that we will fall behind economically if we don't.

Because, you see, politicians know much better what's in businesses' interests than business. At least, they know what's in the best interests of the businesses they decided would be their 'national champion' industries...
