    Higher energy prices primarily hurt the poor. We are seeing this bigly in Ontario and all across Canada. Your new EPA director will help bring these prices down.

    Are American energy prices higher? And if so, by how much?

    Well you will have a better chance of improving your lot starting next month. Good luck but recognize that wealth does not come without effort. All government can do is attempt to eliminate the barriers in your way.

    I love this pick but I only have an MSc degree so what do I know?

    Of course a climate change denier loves this pick. In other news, water is wet and the sky is up.

    I guess it depends on what gender, sexual orientation, religious affiliation, colour of skin and tax bracket you belong to. Some people are going to make out like bandits. Others, not so much.

    I am not a climate change denier. I am just one of those who understands what science knows and what it doesn't know. Science knows that climate changes and it knows that man makes a contribution to that change but that is all it knows. Every other claim is conjecture and every newspaper article that makes a single claim more then the above is simply printed fake news.

    I'll clarify. What policies will make us have a "better chance" to improve our lot?

    This is an EPA thread so let's stick with energy policy at the moment. A pro-energy administration will reduce burdensome regulations on energy related businesses and those landowners who wish to unleash the wealth of their lands. This in turn will result in an increase in employment in energy related services and will lower energy prices across the country which in turn lowers the prices around the globe. Energy price is built into the cost of every good sold so a decrease in the prices of all agriculture and commercial goods will be seen as well. Lastly an increase in reliable homegrown energy will also reduce the reliance on foreign energy sources which will improve the US position when it comes to making foreign policy decisions. So, to sum up, a government that isn't at odds with the energy industry will give you a "better chance" to imorove your lot.

    Even if your broad assumptions were to come true, you may be overstating the economic gains. I guess after Sec of State Tillerson from Exxon takes his share, maybe it will trickle down? And would these cheaper consumables that you claim actually benefit the regular Joe? Because you also have to factor in the higher taxes low income families will be facing under trump, increased healthcare costs, and the higher price on things after his tarrif plan kicks in.

    This is self-contradictory.
    Increases in energy employment and decreases in energy prices simply do not coexist.
    The newer methods of extraction are very expensive and the fracking boom is not dead because of regulation, it is dead because of low energy prices.

    Climate Change Denial And The Rise Of Authoritarianism

    We are in the period of authoritarianism now when it comes to dissension from the religious orthodoxy of current climate science. For those who are interested in broadening their scientific knowledge beyond what the non-scientifically educated media currently reports one could start here:
