Europa Day 3: Recycling Your Tax Euros into Perverse Subsidies
Good news: the world is not running out of oil. Bad news: Europe is. Unsurprising news: it's the eurocrats' fault fb.me/1FTdLA2MfThe battle for EU carbon subsidies has been joined. Dutch energy producer Delta wants to substitute its coal fired power plant for wood combustion and means to get 1 billion euros for it from the EU's giant SDE+ fund totalling 3 billion euros. But that's not all! True believers in the religion of environmentalism want more.

LIVE STREAM OF THE BENGHAZI HEARINGS
LIVE BLOG HERE >>>
A former U.S. diplomat in Libya who says more could have been done to protect Americans at the U.S. mission in Benghazi when it was attacked last September will be a featured witness on Wednesday during a congressional hearing.
Gregory Hicks, deputy chief of mission in Libya at the time of the attack, will be one of three whistleblowers at the hearing before the House of Representatives Committee on Oversight & Government Reform.
The other two witnesses are Mark Thompson, the acting deputy assistant secretary for counterterrorism at the State Department, and Eric Nordstrom, a former regional security officer in Libya.
Hicks has questioned why the U.S. military did not send a plane into Libyan airspace as a show of force and why four American special operations soldiers were not permitted to go to Benghazi.
Four Americans including U.S. Ambassador Christopher Stevens were killed on September 11, 2012, in the attack on a lightly defended U.S. diplomatic mission and a more fortified CIA compound in the eastern Libyan city.

Review: The End is Near and It's Going To Be Awesome!
In his new book, The End Is Near and It's Going to Be Awesome: How Going Broke Will Leave America Richer, Happier, and More Secure, Kevin D. Williamson examines the crisis of the modern welfare state and demonstrates that the crucial political failures of our time are the direct result of government monopolies. Entitlement programs have stifled innovation and efficiency in attempts to deliver failed promises.
There is, however, a light at the end of the tunnel, as millions of people reject the status quo and turn to their own ingenuity to create successful market-derived alternatives to these government monopolies.
