Free-Market Energy

Alexander M. Schaefer and Walter E. Block

Energy & Environment, 2012, vol. 23, issue 4, 647-655

Abstract: There should be no governmental energy policy, nor any department of energy, for that matter. All decisions concerning fuel, up to and including nuclear power, should be based on private property rights and the tenets of laissez faire capitalism. This would assure the proper assumption of risk and ideal resource allocation.
