Ken Harwood: Scott Walker should rethink position on energy

Aug 11, 2015

Dear Editor: The issue of President Obama`s Clean Power Plan will impact the state and it is too bad that we have lost the bipartisan pro-environment position once so strongly a part of Wisconsin. If our governor truly wants to stand out in the crowd, he would do well to rethink his position on energy.

I may be missing something, but I hear a lot of business professionals and energy experts saying the new goals are attainable without impacting business. If I am wrong, let me know. I also hear about jobs in the coal industry, but do we have a clue as to how many jobs were displaced by computer technology? I suggest we ban the use of computers to put people back to work, oh — and ban cars to get the stable jobs back.

Also a thumbs up to Cap Times for including so much data in their editorial.
