With energy shortages, fuel costs are skyrocketing around the world. Experts question how Europeans will keep from freezing this winter. The world needs more oil and liquified natural gas (LNG). Alaska has some of the richest oil and gas supplies on earth and wants to meet the demand. Gov. Mike Dunleavy explains that Alaska is one of the top states in energy, agriculture, lumber, and other critical commodities. Only bad policy is holding the state back. - - - - - Then, Dan Morenoff of the American Civil Rights Project explains his opinion piece - top of the page in the Wall Street Journal Opinion section - arguing why we need to break up the ESG Investing Giants. Not only do the top asset managers own decisive percentages of almost all companies in the S & P and the major media – they also own large shares of each other. Morenoff explains how 19 states attorneys general are now investigating whether Big Finance has become the standard oil of our time, in need of busting up. These companies hold so much power that they can collude to demonetize American oil & gas, firearms manufacturers, and other industries they either dislike or for which they might pour money into foreign competitors.
