First Gorby, now QE2. Someone please check on Reggie Jackson. #RIPQueenElizabeth
(TO BE CLEAR: it's to make sure he's alive, not to stop him from murdering again)
(TO CLARIFY AGAIN: I'm not saying he shouldn't be stopped from murdering, or that he ever *has* murdered - That I know of.)
LOL. The internet is undefeated.

"there's quite a bit of environmental regulatory reform and deregulation that needs to happen across our bureaucracy in order to actually deploy the technologies that we just spent $400 billion subsidizing"

Crazy idea: lead with that BEFORE subsidizing

This, as I've written repeatedly, is a common problem w industrial policy: Advocates say IP is needed to fix "market failures" - in markets severely hamstrung by bad govt policy. And when the IP (subsidies/tariffs/etc) is deployed, it runs smack-dab into those govt restrictions.
The obvs order of operations: 1) fix the bad govt policies; 2) deploy market-based policy improvements; 3) see where *real* mkt failures remain; 4) THEN subsidize/etc in the least distortionary way possible.

So often, industrial policy planners' brightest ideas are thwarted by other policies (and plain old economic reality).
