Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and Massachusetts Sen. Edward Markey announced they were launching an ambitious legislative plan called the Green New Deal.
William L. Anderson : The goals for the GND were right out of Central Planning Fantasyland .
He says the idea that, in five years , the entire grid will consist of electricity powered by windmills and solar panels, with more electricity being produced in 2030 than is currently generated using fossil fuels.
William Anderson : The Green New Deal has failed because it is based upon a socialistic model of command-and-control.
Anderson : Without market prices and prospects of profits and losses, the government planners tasked with implementing these programs are unable to make rational economic decisions.
He says the system will grind to a near halt without the “common denominator” of market prices.
