Why those like the personification of evil in the item below are indeed evil:

The other day, Stephen Lacey flagged some comments from Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.) that I found extremely revealing:

So what I'm trying to do is say, the government should not be picking winners and losers, let the private sector determine the winners and losers, and then ... when somebody is successful, then you give them the subsidies and the tax credit.

This makes absolutely no sense relative to the small-government, fiscal conservative principles Stearns purports to hold. Nor does it make sense as energy policy. But it does make sense at a deeper level.

Not sure it "makes sense," but it can be explained.If your brain still works, you can also see this & this.
