Cap-and-Trade by Any Other Name

Cap-and-Trade by Any Other Name: "Now that cap-and-trade is more or less off the table, our politicians are starting to talk about something else -- or, at least, something that looks like something else. There are various names for this alternative scheme, from renewable energy portfolio standards to clean energy standards to green energy standards. Those in Congress smart enough to reject cap-and-trade the first time should be smart enough to reject it again, even if it is couched in different language, says Kenneth P. Green, a resident scholar at the American Enterprise Institute."
