to the keystone pipeline whether you are for or against it and you want to wait on nebraska we can agree that is not an energy policy. the good news from an energy policy perspective is we now see the price of oil come way down, huge dividends to consumers around the country. it is pretty much a good news story so much on energy. what i would encourage everybody to look at actually is the issue -- the price of carbon pollution right now and take a look at the fact that the president has got a regulatory approach but has indicated he would much prefer to take a market approach. your former secretary of treasury and a lot of people are involved in this issue who recognize that we are paying a price for carbon pollution in the country and around the world. that price should be captured in a market way and a market approach would be far preferable to the regulatory approach. i hope people will begin to take a look at that because if we don't take the market approach the other approach the president has outlined in the absence of any alternatives is going to be the policy. i would hope
