It's one thing to change rules going forward with fair notice; it's entirely another to sandbag a billion $ of steel in the ground with retroactive changes after the projects are built and financed.

@TKavulla Leakage is an issue when there are market and carbon market themes but every analysis I've seen for a decade is contrary to what you cite in this study (which I have not reviewed yet to be clear). Last I knew, NRG supported successful and effective carbon markets?

GDP growth at 2.8 percent, PCE inflation 1.5 percent. This puts a capstone on an incredibly successful response to the pandemic — even if many people won’t believe it https://t.co/Zn9ZhCchvw

America's share of the world's market capitalization has grown steadily since 2010.

It is now higher than it was under any former president since Ronald Reagan.

So much for the claim that "America is in decline".

Senate Intelligence Committee member Mark Kelly warns of a “huge” misinformation campaign by foreign actors. After hearing from the FBI, DNI, and NSA, Kelly estimates that 20%-30% of the political content and comments on social media are generated by Russia, Iran, and China.
