Whatever the outcome of November's elections, our economic well being requires that the dysfunctional relationship between the White House and Congress change. Governing needs to replace posturing. A good place to start is energy policy. The failed energy policies of the past have been well documented. Industrial policy initiatives aimed at energy independence and alternative energy sources have failed, have wasted hundreds of billions of dollars, and have distorted the energy market. Energy is to the economy what oxygen is to human life. To do its job, it needs to be abundant and affordable. Obama has been a disaster on energy policy. Only because of the timely arrival of fracking technology is energy production not at 14 year lows.
