For 25 years and
with utter futility (starting with «The Oil - Bust Panic,» the New Republic, February 1983), I have been advocating the cure: a U.S. energy tax as a way to curtail consumption and keep the money at home.
It was not about climate change at all — it was simply about the
utter futility and absurdity of trying to make long - term predictions in chaotic systems
with more unknowns than knowns..
