According to the Wall Street Journal, Obama’s SOTU themes will be ‘competitiveness’ and ‘investment’, “daring Republicans to resist his push for new spending in areas that he will call vital to the nation’s future [like his preferred...] infrastructure, science and energy”. He demands we be competitive in the uneconomic, calls for innovation in the old and for the taxpayer to ‘invest’ in things that can’t find investors enough to stay afloat. In a country where the Snuggie and Vince the Sham-Wow guy find investors and markets.

What a humiliation that windmills and solar panels can’t. Here’s to hoping that even in Washington, neither can this absurd call to dive further down the rabbit hole of ‘renewable’ energy.
