Title: EPA Wants Texas to Follow New York's Example
Topic: EPA Rules and Regulations
Discussed by Dr. Wayne Winegarden
with Pacific Research Institute (www.PacificResearch.org)
Part 1 of 2
The gas tax in New York is just outrageous! Here in Texas we have it good.
Our gas prices keep falling thanks to the lower price of $50 per barrel on oil.
In fact, prices are falling all across the country. But that’s not the case in
New York due to their 50 cent per gallon tax on gasoline.
Dr. Wayne Winegarden has 20 years of business, economic, and policy experience
with an expertise in applying quantitative and macroeconomic analyses to create
greater insights on corporate strategy, public policy, and strategic planning.
Basically, he helps create solutions to make the world go round with the best
possible solution for everyone involved.
Dr. Winegarden also discusses the electric rates in New York compared to the
rest of the country. He says it has nothing to do with geography and everything
to do with policy: “Energy is vital to prosperity. New York should reform its
over-regulated energy market — both to save consumers money and boost economic
growth.”
Listen in as Dr. Winegarden explains how technological advances are actually
hindering economic growth in many cases and how the EPA is overstepping their
authority.

Dr. Winegarden’s article in the
New York Times, “The Empire State’s Ugly War on Energy”, is just common sense.
The average American realizes that placing higher taxes and more regulations on
cheaper, more reliable fossil fuels is harming the economy. The average American
knows that solar and wind energy are less reliable and high in cost.
The government is not stupid. They know exactly what they are doing when they
place harsh regulations and policies on the backs of hard-working Americans.
They have strategic plans to make them appear better in the long run.
Listen in as Dr. Winegarden explains New York’s strategy and what the state is
losing in jobs and economic growth by not utilizing the fracking technique.
Also, what can Texans do to ensure that similar regulations from the EPA aren’t
implemented in our great state?
