Environmentalism – a threat to prosperity 204
Environmentalists are our second-worst enemy (militant Islam being the worst).
Walter Williams writes in Townhall:
For several decades, environmentalists have managed to get Congress to keep most of our oil resources off-limits to exploration and drilling. They’ve managed to have the Congress enact onerous regulations that have made refinery construction impossible. Similarly, they’ve used the courts and Congress to completely stymie the construction of nuclear power plants. As a result, energy prices are at historical highs and threaten our economy and national security.
